You don't seem to understand that these investigations of yours take time, effort and money yet they are going to reveal the obvious. Any Minister who says it is not her job to deliver textbooks amid a national crisis does not deserve her position regardless of what caused the crisis to begin with. She treats her job and the public with contempt, her attitude stinks.

Our president mara, on IOL he is quoted as saying:

“Why should the ANC punish him again because that was dealt with in terms of the laws of the country?” he asked.
This would be funny if it weren't so sad. So someone commits a criminal act - drunken driving - and given the position he occupies and the institution he works for Zuma sees no reason to discipline him for his violat(ion) of public kind of rule.

Illiteracy its self seems to be a huge problem for our key driving Comrades at the top! Starting from the President clearly this huge education failure is just a tip of an ice bag! Well we do not know about other issues in other Departments simply because somebody did not unleash those rotten dark secretes of our top executive members! Well to be honest Comrades have got one mandate which proves to be difficult for them to hide nowadays, their main mandate to the Government throne was never a provision of excellent service delivery to our people but to loot the Government Tax Payers money in order to enrich themselves. We are not idiots, ANC have got nothing to do with the poor marginalized masses of our country, and the center of all Political high profile white collar crimes is greed and individual self enrichment! A political term of Office is very short well it seems like Comrades make show that before they leave, they must have looted enough so that they can sustain themselves for the rest of their lives. Well they can no longer hide that we have already realised their main reason to come into power! The basis of the whole juncture is that, despite all this flabbergasting hopeless mess our President has so far done nothing in a situation which is dire and could have acted very harshly to the Perpetrators! There is no need to arrest poor clerk who is languishing down there whereas the serious top marks men are being left to gesture as the President, the Minister, the Premier and the complete illiterate MEC concerned in all this mess! We appeal to the President to stop biting around the bush we are very educated we are not fools, please Comrade President fire Comrade Angie, Mathale and Masemola, may be just may be you can win our trust back, we are hopeless of your management style fire those irrelevant, illiterate bunch of morons like you did with other morons like YOU!

The ANC saw it fit to remove Mbeki - as unfit. Yet with Zuma he is still in the running. What is happening in the ANC? Where is the brains trust!?!?!?!
It looks like the brains in the ANC are all businessmen now - and they left the running of the country to the idiots with grade 5 education.

Illiteracy its self seems to be a huge problem for our key driving Comrades at the top! Starting from the President clearly this huge education failure is just a tip of an ice bag! Well we do not know about other issues in other Departments simply because somebody did not unleash those rotten dark secretes of our top executive members! Well to be honest Comrades have got one mandate which proves to be difficult for them to hide nowadays, their main mandate to the Government throne was never a provision of excellent service delivery to our people but to loot the Government Tax Payers money in order to enrich themselves. We are not idiots, ANC have got nothing to do with the poor marginalized masses of our country, and the center of all Political high profile white collar crimes is greed and individual self enrichment! A political term of Office is very short well it seems like Comrades make show that before they leave, they must have looted enough so that they can sustain themselves for the rest of their lives. Well they can no longer hide that we have already realised their main reason to come into power! The basis of the whole juncture is that, despite all this flabbergasting hopeless mess our President has so far done nothing in a situation which is dire and could have acted very harshly to the Perpetrators! There is no need to arrest poor clerk who is languishing down there whereas the serious top marks men are being left to gesture as the President, the Minister, the Premier and the complete illiterate MEC concerned in all this mess! We appeal to the President to stop biting around the bush we are very educated we are not fools, please Comrade President fire Comrade Angie, Mathale and Masemola, may be just may be you can win our trust back, we are hopeless of your management style fire those irrelevant, illiterate bunch of morons like you did with other morons like YOU!Report Abuse

i bet he was also told to go to 567 radio to embarass himself. this is becoming a tendency that Malema spoke about. being written speeches and told what to do. without any modification of whatever the mandate requires he spells it out.Report Abuse
