ANC Youth League spokesperson Floyd Shivambo reminds us of former Iraqi information minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf, otherwise known as Comical Ali for his hilarious determination to deny that the Americans were crushing Saddam Hussein's forces.

ANC Youth League spokesperson Floyd Shivambo reminds us of former Iraqi information minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf, otherwise known as Comical Ali for his hilarious determination to deny that the Americans were crushing Saddam Hussein's forces.

Our home-grown Comical Flo still refuses to believe that Jacob Maroga is no longer Eskom CEO, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Does Shivambo want to see Maroga get his pension payout before he will be convinced?

Shivambo must accept that their man did not have their youthful staying power.

We suggest that the youth league now start looking at other issues that will keep them busy for a while. For example, they could enter the fray at Armscor, where CEO Sipho Thomo has still not resigned despite that parastatal's board doing a Maroga on him.
