The Time Has Come For The Feudal Tribal Father To Exit Stage Left

By

Dear Editor

Patience is required to detach the impoverished people from the psychological identification with ANC rule. The ANC has managed to casts itself as the feudal tribal father of our nation. This has been done by duping the masses to believe that what is good for the party and rulers is good for them to. It is this emotional bonding that has made Africa’s development stagnant and backwards.

In the case of SA, the rulers hold people through mythological ideological authority.
This explains why people cannot connect the Phala Phala scandal, Transnet, Eskom, Health System to their current plight. In their eyes Phala Phala has no connection to the select application of the rule of law and the collapse of law and order.

Eskom’s dysfunctional ity and the poor state of Transnet are seen as totally isolated to how the ruling clique broke down those institutions. No wakeup call to the stealing frenzy at the height of Covid-19. Senior leaders and civil servants, close to the President were fingered.

Hope is growing by the day to many SAs. Citizens are starting to stand up and act. Some act individually, as groups, whilst others are gradually making steady progress in mobilising the masses. The task is not and will never be easy. It’s lonely and at some times a deadly crusade.

The masses are no more indifferent and apathetic. Now that they see that the strangulation of the ANC is cracking at expense of more pressure from a small but resolute band of dedicated citizens. The feeling of helplessness is being slowly eroded. People will do more about the current misrule and oporession once they realise that their actions have an impact.

That impact exists. The ANC is close to the below 50% electoral mark.
They have lost most Metros at the ballot box.

To be exact, it can’t govern Johannesburg, Pretoria, Ekuruleni, Nelson Mandela Bay and Durban, with the majority they once enjoyed.

The small band of political activists has manage to smash naked the image of ANC invincibility. The people across the length and breadth of the country are fast gaining their confidence and ability to resist and successfully challenge political tyranny and corruption.

The political apologists rely on the consistently repeated lie – there is no alternative to the ANC. The might well have been none in the past, but currently it is in work in progress.

Apartheid fed its electorate and friends a similar lie for decades. That was to the point that Mandela and his friends were completely forgotten in the country.

Today, they peddle the propaganda that they are the only ones qualified to rule SA. They are wrong.

Those who seek to do something correct, must just disseminate factual information. Ignorance of the masses is gold to political despots.

Let us expose their misrule, corruption, incompetence, cronyism and unfettered abuse of state power for questionable reasons.
