"OUR country badly needs clear leadership. "

Oh.

What do you know about "leadership"?

[Or it it your contention that those natives - the people of Shaka - cannot offer "leadership"?]

.

" .. deciding who should be the CEO of .. corporation, and declare that the mining industry must be nationalised. .."

We knew it: Rhodies would protect the ill-gotten native plunder!

Remember this: As far as the long-suffering patriotic natives of Shaka's lands are concerned, the economy of their lands has been in a perpetual depression ever since the vile rhodie defiled it by stepping foot on it.

As such, drastic measures are called for.

Do you remember the measures Pres Obama took when he assumed office amidst one of the worst recessions the USA - and the world - ever faced? CEOs were not spared and corporations were essentially nationalized.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. ...

.

"SA deserves better than this."

If you don't like it in South Africa, you don't have to stay a moment longer.
