The closing session at the Zondo Commission was an absolute disgrace. The DCJ cannot just let it go. He must act.
On further reflection, I think Dali must apologise to the DVJ in person for soiling his platform.
It was the most disgraceful behaviour by a professional who is deemed successful in his sector. It is indefensible. He must bury his usual arrogance
be for once humble and apologise unconditionally. @AdvDali_Mpofu
I believe he says we can all jump into the next lake.!!! We shall take him along for the occassion.

There is an intellectually barren and misguided view that one's excellence, in any field, should be viewed from the lense of skin colour, as exceptionalism, in relation to what is normal for the oppressor, because your nation was oppressed and excluded from
freedom and self-actualization. Your status as an equal member of the human society must 1st be referenced on skin colour. In this way, black children grow up with the knowledge that they should prove exceptionalism and not normal human endowment.
This is an ingrained attitude that Verwoerd wanted black people to embrace and assimilated as part of who they are. I'm very pained to see this dominating the mindset of young people in the 21st Century. It must be uprooted.

We have either reached, or about to reach a situation where the government will not have the financial resources to stop and reverse the degree of pollution of our river systems. It has taken just under 30 yrs to oversee their degradation.
It will require almost 50 yrs to restore them and at an exorbitant price.
The current generations owe it to future generations to leave a better place for them. Under the ANC governance in many munics, we have systematically and with utmost selfish intent
misappropriated funds for maintenance of sewerage treatment plants across all munics under the ANC. This is essentially evil.
It is common site in poor communities to see raw sewage flowing in their unpaved roads. Kids play in these filthy situations.

In South Africa the ANC MO is to run down our public infrastructure through deliberate neglect and classical incompetence and then design reconstruction projects with the overriding purpose to provide tenders political leaders and their cronies.
We then call such intervention Reconstruction and Development Projects and seek FDI funds to implement them. It becomes an eggregious process of self-enrichment and looting. This has now become the raison de'tre of the ANC.
There are plenty of examples to cite in support of this statement. The Vaal river pollution (Emfuleni); Haartebeespoort dam (Sedibeng); etc.
Plse contribute more in order to develop a catalogue of neglect and destruction.

What is happening in the municipalities governed by the ANC - Led government is unconscionable and downright evil. And I speak with respectable+deep knowledge on the subject.
Poor people cross streets with free-flowing raw sewage in their communities.
Consistent availability of drinkable water is an exception in many municipalities. Witbank is without clean water and relies on expensive bottled water from the private sector?
Provision of clean water and sewerage treatment are state responsibilities.
Collection of refuse is also a public responsibility.
Given the historical inequities in these services, it required public servants with a high level of consciousness to achieve high performance and social justice in the delivery of these services

Evidence by Khoza + others @StateCaptureCom signals inability for the voters to intervene by way of sanction of the elected representative. This is a result of the proportional party list electoral system that makes the party chiefs more important than voters
The unintended outcome of the electoral system is that Parly is handicapped from objectively holding the executive to account. Mantashe put it more bluntly by saying none of the ANC members of Parly can follow their conscience. This is the Paradox.
In actual fact, our proportional closed party list system obliges us to grant power of attorney to the parties and their leadership. After casting our votes, there is very little voters can do about how representatives exercise their conscience in Parly.

Xmas festivities in 2020?? What Xmas festivities?? Covid-19 has comprehensively re-written the Xmas script. Maybe permanently for many.
Two of my children are right in centre of the front line health providers. A day has never passed without praying for
their protection in order to serve. Noo, they too, like some in their profession, have now tested +ve and are on solid recovery including their families.
My spirituality is in turmoil.
But I have accepted. We shall only see them AFTER Xmas.
My pain pails into insignificance as I reflect on how this virus and its new variant has ravaged and disrupted the UK with their incompetent leadership. The same applies to us with the hot-spots along the Indian ocean. Incompetent leaders here too.
