Zanufication of the ANC

The ANC is no different from Zanu-PF, in word and in action. Jacob Zuma's speeches are very similar to the rhetoric and insults that Robert Mugabe dishes out to his opposition.

The ANC is no different from Zanu-PF, in word and in action. Jacob Zuma's speeches are very similar to the rhetoric and insults that Robert Mugabe dishes out to his opposition.

The attempt by the ANC leadership to amend the Constitution to protect Zuma from being prosecuted is evidence that the ANC is abusing the power that they have been given by the people. Zanu-PF was just as rich historically as the ANC is, but after liberating Zimbabweans, it destroyed democracy and the economy and left the people hopeless. The ANC will do exactly that.

If we think South Africa is immune to such problems we are wrong. With the ANC doing what it is, we are bound to face the same disaster as other SADC countries. Zuma is more important to the ANC than any thing else in this country.

I don't hate Zuma, but I believe that a leader must be credible, and he is not. Which innocent man would waste millions of rands taxpayers' money to resist going to court to clear his name?

We can't have the country run by hotheads or we will end up like Rwanda and Burundi. The signs of political intolerance are setting in with ANC members disrupting the Cope meetings.

The youth must get involved in politics instead of being spoken for by the likes of Julius Malema and Buti Manamela.
