Why wasn’t Malema condemned?

IT IS perplexing why President Cyril Ramaphosa has not condemned the EFF or thrown his weight behind the belittled Minister of Public Enterprises Pravin Gordhan.

Granted that considering his stature and gravitas, Gordhan can stand his ground against flip-flopper racist extraordinaire Julius Malema but to put him similar in stature is a hyperbole at best. Malema is as bankrupt as Hitler was, playing on race and this is dangerous especially when there is a clear and present danger that Malema presents.

I found the personal attacks on Gordhan painful.

This may be politicking ahead of 2019 but it’s so vile that it’s nothing but a deliberate attack on honest and hard-working people. I cannot in all good conscience remain unmoved.

Mr Malema has launched personal, vitriolic, alternatively septic, sidewinders at Deputy

Chief Justice Raymond Zondo, who is chairing the commission of inquiry into state capture, as well as Gordhan.

Where are those moral, righteous voices in the ANC government? Why are they silent?

Malema gets more exposure than the witnesses who’ve testified so far.

It terrifies future witnesses who want to testify.

The findings of the “Great Bank Heist” report appear to have paled into insignificance. Where are you president Ramaphosa?
