@TimModise This notion that ANC is the leader of society is a myth that must be debunked. When black oppressed people fought the apartheid state for democratic values it had some credibility. In a highly diversified society the notion is nonsensical.
In a democratic society various parties contest for the voter's mandate.Many social movements including churches also provide alternative platforms to meet individual choices.The notion of leader of society is irrational and has no relevance 2 current context
ANC needs a serious reality check. It's culture and organizational practices are relics of the past and totally inconsistent with contemporary values. Our society is not monolithic. To even think that it could act as leader of society is arrogant +irrational
There's nothing like a leader of society in contemporary times. What exists are social formations that pursue particular causes. Latest revelations at Zondo commission show that ANC has lost moral and ethical leadership.
Prince Mashele describes the ANC as a gangster party. Evidence at Zondo commission makes it difficult Not to agree with him. The next two weeks at Zondo will sadly confirm his characterization.
