The dictator does not go around the streets, beating drums and singing
and tells everyone his intensions. The dictator is power hungry and
bully those who are against his views. He places his opponents in Kangaroo.
Courts. The dictator demands respect, which is earned. The dictator calls
the Youth of the country, the future generation a “nations of thugs”. The
dictator threatens that those who protest for poor services delivery the
police will act harshly on the them. The dictator remotes control the security
of the country. The dictator will do anything to be in power, including selling
his soul and conscious. The dictator will speak in his inferior language to
the whole nations whereby majority are not part of such affiliation.
The ANC under the leadership of Zuma discusses petty and households issues. If uZuma was a woman i would say unesikhwele. what is there in a tittle for a country that is hungry for service delivery?? Report Abuse

@Sowetan & Press Club hands off Mr President! You know exactly that whatever was agreed on at Midrand was a collective ideas. But, since you and your entourage Press Club are always putting the President and his Executive on the bad light. You try to munipalte us (public) to have negative inputs against our own. If you report things that you have facts of not to create wrong impression, fueling hatred and ill debate against our president.
I am not a party member, but I like to respect my leaders as per God's intruction. Respect does not limit one from voicing out good critics. But not the system/platform you are using to mobilise the public against the leaders.
@Sowetan and Press Club go and revive your mandate of reporting> are you for the development of this country or against it. You dont report good and inspirational tidings. Look every sunday what you fedd us with>cheater, marital infidility, forgery of qualifications. According to me that does not need my attention. You need to tag that individual yourself, they will be found out on their own.
Try to visit good thing and moptivate our mind please.
keep doing what you're doing to the anc zuma verwoerd must be smiling from wherever he is, you are doing to the anc what him and others after him failed to do, ie destroy the anc, sometimes I wish you cld be given second term, so the anc can be completely destructed.

I think that the structure of the ANC is in tatters. In order for policies to carried out effectively, the ruling party must get its structure right. As i said, there is only 1 Chief. The rest work below him.
Malema thought he was bigger than the president, because he was ANCYL president. This should not equate to president because the ANCYL is sub to the ANC.

Yes, I agree. Zuma is not delivering, so naturally people will think that he is being petty with such issues.
but, if we expand on this a little further, Zuma is not the only one in the ANC. In as much as he is president, I do believe that his team is incompetent to deal with any issues. He has no formal education. So, he is up there with policies that he reads out every now and then, but he does not really understand.
Zuma is the president of the ANC. We must hold the whole organisation accountable for taking us on this sorry path. We must use our votes to vote this organisation out, and bring someone in who will undeerstand that you do not need a policy conference to deal with service delivery protests.
The problem statement of that 2nd transition report was that the government is concerned about service delivery protest, and they think this has to do with vast inequalities. They are so wrong. People on the ground are fighting for basic services that councils are incompetent to do.

I think the President of all the ANC related wings should be only one, as such a certain superiority and essence of leadership will be associated with only one person who is the President! As such I suggest that in a bit to bring back the dignity and trust that have been lost, the word ANC President should relate to only the President of the mother body!

and zuma wld do well to remember that SAn tax payers pay his salary to do the work for SA not facilitate his vendetta over a silly boy (malema) cause all this is advancement of malemazuma fight, its a fact malema is outstaging zuma at every opportunity, look at all media articles where malema is quoted to have said soemthign, they get more hits than zuma, and zuma has even adopted some of malema rhetoric, zuma needs to buy himself some personality and originality, cause he fuses into everyone's personality if that guarantees him popular ism.
The dance thing, he tried to be like Madiba cause Madiba used to charm the audience with his famous Madiba shuffle, but what Zuma doesn't have is originality, Madiba was authentic zuma is a fake everything about him is a fake,
@DJ wena uyabonakale ukuba uzuma were to say bend over you will do so without questioning that command, you are a proper 'yes-man' just the kind zuma surrounds himself with.

LMAO, tltltltlttltltltl, down on the floor !!! don't ever argue with DJWinner regarding zuma, he tries so hard to be he's

zuma if you had substance you wouldn't be threatened by anything malema says or does, you would not feel the need to compete with him as a moron, if you had substance and credibility the nation would throw their weight behind you since malema is the state enemy number with his moronic rhetoric, wena you can't even make yourself interesting or popular even when you have wrestled malema out of the anc, you have used your time in office to settle scores with ppl who are nto even in gov, cause some of us are wondering when you will you finally focus on the job at hand than pursuing your malema vendetta, do you think you were going to be a national hero when you had malema expelled from the anc? As things stand it looks like even in that you were not effective, cause Malema still enjoys support from his followers wena you still remain a moron, you are now starting to look like a jilted lover who is not able to let go, hence you plan everything around malema, I am sure you have wet dreams about him. You are a supreme loser and tosser who is wasting our time and tax, that's why I am never going to respect you!

An extract from Blade Nzimande on articles like these:
An interesting development that many media houses have developed is what one would call a ‘PR’ stance of using internal OMBUDS. These Ombuds appear to accept many of the challenges we are raising. However this seems to be self-serving rather than genuine. If it were genuine we would be seeing different media products with better quality of analysis. For example there seems to be no effort to enforce a balance between factual reporting, opinion and analyses. The good old journalistic principle of seeking to tell a story factually seems to have gone out of the window. It has been replaced by innuendos and dubious anonymous sources. While there may be genuine reasons for anonymous sources from time to time, there cannot be total dependence on these as is the case these days. Where are the internal Ombudsmen when this kind of journalism becomes the norm? Report Abuse

I think that the structure of the ANC is in tatters. In order for policies to carried out effectively, the ruling party must get its structure right. As i said, there is only 1 Chief. The rest work below him.
Malema thought he was bigger than the president, because he was ANCYL president. This should not equate to president because the ANCYL is sub to the ANC.

Yes, I agree. Zuma is not delivering, so naturally people will think that he is being petty with such issues.
but, if we expand on this a little further, Zuma is not the only one in the ANC. In as much as he is president, I do believe that his team is incompetent to deal with any issues. He has no formal education. So, he is up there with policies that he reads out every now and then, but he does not really understand.
Zuma is the president of the ANC. We must hold the whole organisation accountable for taking us on this sorry path. We must use our votes to vote this organisation out, and bring someone in who will undeerstand that you do not need a policy conference to deal with service delivery protests.
The problem statement of that 2nd transition report was that the government is concerned about service delivery protest, and they think this has to do with vast inequalities. They are so wrong. People on the ground are fighting for basic services that councils are incompetent to do.

I can imagine a situation similar to that of 2008 after TM was recalled and all the chaos with the YL and Malema started.
.....................
I think that as long as Zuma is around, Malema will be where he belongs; cutting wood somewhere. Unless his chommies are elected in Mangaung.
Then again, Zuma and his supporters, and Malema and his supporters all think alike. They have no clue on economic policies, and how these ultimately affect political decisions. Why on earth would Zuma want to move onto 2nd transition. What happened during the first? Were political goals realised, bearing in mind that these can be attained through economic goals? Are africans really free?

ANC not wanting to be outdone by other liberators come dictators they decided on chose own dictator in zuma, trust d@rkies for shooting themselves in the foot, its actually hilarious when you come to think of it, zuma was the anc's NEC's making and that must a decision they will live roe cause zuma is a like a fatty stain, is attached firmly to the power he wants second term, maybe after second term he will demand second term, maybe then the country is fully entrenched and ruled by military/security forces as he strategically placed his ppl in those posts, oooh I love how this drama is unfolding....Report Abuse

This is just mostly an American English verb to relate to a leader who the bug stop with! I think it have been relatively abused and used in inappropriately by majority of people all over the world. Is like the word Chairperson / man / woman, they both relate to the apex level of a superiority and suggest nothing more! I think the President of all the ANC related wings should be only one, as such a certain superiority and essence of leadership will be associated with only one person who is the President! As such I suggest that in a bit to bring back the dignity and trust that have been lost, the word ANC President should relate to only the President of the mother body! Others should all be called the Chairpersons like Comrade Baleka Mbete so that we can redeem back the verb President to be associated with people of extreme high quality who cannot insult others exposing their idiotic tendencies associated with arrogance and unnecessary anger!!Report Abuse

The moron is the King on Kandla, he worries about petty things.
Rather than the poorest of the poor who where promised a better
life. The best thing that can happen to your president is to buy
him a rope to hang himself in shame. If the so called firstman
knew how to run the country, then people would not be confused
who the president is. Let him strip the president title on the leagues
but that won’t make him competent. The fat lady shall sing, come
Mangaung, the likes of you and Blade shall go back to your party.
We are doomed for having him as the president of
South Africa. Cry the beloved country.

and zuma wld do well to remember that SAn tax payers pay his salary to do the work for SA not facilitate his vendetta over a silly boy (malema) cause all this is advancement of malemazuma fight, its a fact malema is outstaging zuma at every opportunity, look at all media articles where malema is quoted to have said soemthign, they get more hits than zuma, and zuma has even adopted some of malema rhetoric, zuma needs to buy himself some personality and originality, cause he fuses into everyone's personality if that guarantees him popular ism.The dance thing, he tried to be like Madiba cause Madiba used to charm the audience with his famous Madiba shuffle, but what Zuma doesn't have is originality, Madiba was authentic zuma is a fake everything about him is a fake,

zuma if you had substance you wouldn't be threatened by anything malema says or does, you would not feel the need to compete with him as a moron, if you had substance and credibility the nation would throw their weight behind you since malema is the state enemy number with his moronic rhetoric, wena you can't even make yourself interesting or popular even when you have wrestled malema out of the anc, you have used your time in office to settle scores with ppl who are nto even in gov, cause some of us are wondering when you will you finally focus on the job at hand than pursuing your malema vendetta, do you think you were going to be a national hero when you had malema expelled from the anc? As things stand it looks like even in that you were not effective, cause Malema still enjoys support from his followers wena you still remain a moron, you are now starting to look like a jilted lover who is not able to let go, hence you plan everything around malema, I am sure you have wet dreams about him. You are a supreme loser and tosser who is wasting our time and tax, that's why I am never going to respect you!And the anc will one day wake up from its slumber and throw you out of the organisation cause you are useless and have brought them into disrepute.

I cannot wait for the Mangaung circus, so that we can all go on with our lives. Can we also ask the comrades at Luthuli House and their cronies to use their energy to deliver basic amenities to the masses, who voted them in power. Really, who cares about the word President?When our President was inagurated, he forgot to whisper to someone that he is the President of the country and in charge, hence we are debating this useless issue. Real leaders are not threatened by such.

An extract from Blade Nzimande on articles like these:An interesting development that many media houses have developed is what one would call a ‘PR’ stance of using internal OMBUDS. These Ombuds appear to accept many of the challenges we are raising. However this seems to be self-serving rather than genuine. If it were genuine we would be seeing different media products with better quality of analysis. For example there seems to be no effort to enforce a balance between factual reporting, opinion and analyses. The good old journalistic principle of seeking to tell a story factually seems to have gone out of the window. It has been replaced by innuendos and dubious anonymous sources. While there may be genuine reasons for anonymous sources from time to time, there cannot be total dependence on these as is the case these days. Where are the internal Ombudsmen when this kind of journalism becomes the norm?
