you guys can't be serious you want him to appoint the guy who withdrew his charges based on unfound evidence really?
I am starting to believe in our democracy again. The victimizing of our state prosecutors must stop now. Corruption can only succeed with weak and compliant people on board - Zuma knew that which is why he appointed weaklings to important post. Hlope must forget about being a con court judge.

I think our president should read the constitution. It doesn't seem that anything that Zoomer touches is within the constitution, 2 appointments, the hawks being replaced by the scorpions (By the way, what has happened about that), many comments made, specifically about what a democracy is. Let's give this man a bells and a second term.
It took how many years for South Africa to figure out that Simelane was appointed unconstitutionally? I remember when the issue 1st came up:
"The DA doesnt want to see a black man shine" or something to that note. Report Abuse
