Zuma and the ANC are crippling the country

-

EVERYTHING President Jacob Zuma and his ANC ministers are doing is of no benefit to the country.

Rather, they are crippling our country. Zuma has openly and shamelessl­y admitted putting the ANC before the people of South Africa.

These same people paid about R250 million for the upgrade of his personal homestead in Nkandla. These people are now forking out about R4 billion on his private jet. They are paying this highly paid president (one of the most highly paid in the world) his salary and for the upkeep of his many wives and, eish, large number of children.

With the weakening rand, the poor economy and high unemployme­nt and poverty levels, our government is raping our land for personal gain and luxuries the people of South Africa cannot afford.

But the ANC people don’t think so (if they did, Zuma would have been recalled long ago, the way they did Thabo Mbeki).

The ANC supports his doings and for this reason Zuma has put the ANC before the rest of the people of South Africa. I guess for the dummies out there that’s another reason to vote for the ANC.

Oh yes, the dim-witted Phumlani Mfeka and Mazibuye African Forum should be directing their efforts and time to fighting the greed and poor management of the ANC government, not to some minority that has not contribute­d to crippling our economy. REGGIE CHELLAN
