South Africa: Danny Jordaan's Intimidation Tactics - a Tale As Old As Time

analysis

South African Football Association boss Danny Jordaan has taken a rape charge against him and framed it as a political conspiracy designed to depose him. It is a move straight out of the Jacob Zuma playbook. Beyond this, Jordaan's laying of countercharges against his rape accuser Jennifer Ferguson is another time-honoured intimidation tool in the armoury of powerful men. We would be fools to fall for this grubby sideshow.

Never waste a good crisis.
