Surprised? Not in the least. And will anyone act on this information? Of course not. It wasn't them. Of course. Never is.

I think they are taking the statement "my country" a tad too personally and running these departments as if it's their own spaza shops, where their children, aunts and cousins can come in anytime grab a loaf of bread and a tin of Bull Brand.

I am available to investigate and chair, don't call me if you gonna need a "black refus bag" from me.

And they only singled out Julius Malema. Not to say he must not be prosecuted for his crimes, but every corrupt official should have his/her day in court including the giggling fool of Inkandla.

Expect a revolt in that province soon and lead by the students of today, the poor are getting a taste of true empowerment not led by unions or government SA will be in trouble in 5-10 years if not sooner and we all will be affected.

Just because the leadership in that Province support Me I will not do anything to them but those that got 52 Million tender must pay 1 billion is smaller that 52 Million.

Moral ground and respect for human in the ANC has died. Zuma with 700 charges that he wont ansa and now they want to nominate a person who find fun to spend 18million on a buffalo while millions suffer everyday for school fees. That is morally wrong

there no one to disallow the mess, heads won't roll 'cause the guillotine operator's hands are also in the cookie jar. Jail in SA is meant for those that harm/kill in self defence.

Eastern Cape people dont care about their province, they come to JHB, KZN & WC and forgot about their people... 420m was suppose to be spent on building houses for poor people & it wasnt used... EC peoeple are very smart i know a lot of them but they dont like to their hometown.

Unfortunately we do not need to gossip when the truth is exposed daily, not long ago the connected destroyed the Aurora mines and nothing was done with it , so what the ANC is doing is public knowledge so we need not go to gossip column, you can try them if you think they can cover the truth.

I relocated to the Western Cape from the Eastern Cape seven years ago precisely for the above-mentioned. Health services: on the verge of collapse. Education: all but collapsed. The East London Municipality has been without a CFO for a couple of years now and we've had how many Mayors the past few years. Each one gets dismissed and the new one is worse than the one before. Cadre deployment has and never will work. As long as you stick incompetent people in jobs, this is what you will get.

And the irony is that after Mangaung we will still sit with the same leaders. Wake up people. Even if Zuma is not elected president again - the rest of the people are still the same - they just shuffle positions and you keep allowing them to. I have no sympathy. You get what you vote for.

I do not think SA citizens expect to have a better country, I think they are content watching the leadership and their relatives becoming rich, when they make excuses why the rest of the country is not getting to reap the fruits of their freedom. The voters are the ones to blame, they do not set high standards for themselves. This is really annoying because come 2014 the electorate will be singing the praises of these thiefs, they are all thiefs and liars.
