Politics and Leadership

In Africa Politics and Leadership are synonymous.

Politicians are the celebrities... followed closely behind by economic and religious moguls.

We need wider and more diverse areas of leadership to be recognized; that is, every leadership from the citizenry.

Africa will be liberated by leadership beyond Politics, Money, and Religion.

Views of South Africa Today

There is little respect for human life.

Yesterday a man killed another man in full view of the media and the police.

Murder is an everyday occurrence.

In August, this year, the state opened fire on civilians killing 34.

When workers go on strike they carry deadly weapons.

There is no respect for the organs of state.

Politicians and union leaders are state celebrities.

They attack state institutions at will.

The government and parastatal posts are reserved for friends of the ruling alliance members.

The ruling party is in big business with the state and the private sector.

The citizenry is kept in check 

With grants galore...

With promises galore...

With much blame on the past...
