Sowetan, i disagree. This because the ANC did not even manage to draw a large number that they expected to draw. About 5000 people showed up while the ANC wanted 15000. For a big party like ANC, that was a disgrace.
Secondly i think this will be hunting zuma come December. Opposition from within will be using this as advantage as they will argue that ANC deserve a better respectable leader and they will combine this with the fact that the party declined in votes since zuma took over. The media might be trying to boost zuma re-election.
I will also question voting delegates' intellectual capacity if they make zuma win in Mangaung. zuma might be causing the party to lose a lot. He might be laughed by even fellow African leaders and that will embarass him worse. This man has got nothing to show that he is capable of doing right. THE DECLINE IN VOTES SAYS IT ALL. Report Abuse

The "Spear" painting did not help Zuma at all instead it has shown how easy it is for the ANC to criticize others while it does not accept criticism itself. (The Ruel Khoza comment was not taken light).
They failed at court and they went to the street, we the vast majority of the electorate we are watching them and with Mangaung around the corner believe you me when I say there will be a lot of surprises.
After 18 years in Government we still have students in June who don't have textbooks, people are toyi toying on a daily basis at different places for different and similar demands, why is our Government waiting for people to toyi toyi before helping them. Our people get so frustrated that they end up burning building and throwing stones at law enforcing officers. The Government is failing everybody except the SACP because they have swelled the ranks of Government. They are our failing Government's praise singers.
The youth unemployment (Educated and un-educated) is a powder keg waiting to explode and unfortunately it is going to sooner than later.
Service delivery protests daily, its a disgrace for a Government that was elected by the people and failing to service the electorete. People are sick and tired with the ANC.
Right now I have heard a lot of people suggesting that at local government they will vote the DA and at provincia land national they will vote the ANC. Their reasons are that all DA run municipalities are delivering to the people on the ground as opposed to the ANC. This is sad though real.
