The ANC is really a baffling entity. President Ramaphosa has set as his prime mission to unite it. I'm battling to understand a set of values that can be pillars will help him support his efforts. But any of them that you can imagine counter the prevailing
systemic and totally pervasive culture of corruption that operates through a patronage of networks that have roots in every corner of the country. How then do you cleanse such a structure within five years without abandoning the country in the hands of God?
Precipitously this challenge occurs at a time when the country has been pushed over the cliff by the Covid-19 pandemic. The economy and jobs have been destroyed. Death has visited many families and the poor have been pauperised. The health and basic
educations systems were neglected and weakened. We need to catalyze recovery within five yrs or SA shall be managed by the IMF. How then can the attention of the president be focused somewhere else? He is not superhuman and his cabinet is not cut for the
Task ahead. The moment requires a technocratic cabinet with special powers. Otherwise he will be the weakest one term President in the history of post democratic South Africa. Perhaps as a BEE capitalist billionaire this is a siee issue. Unbelievable.
