| President Jacob Zuma and Deputy President, Kgalema Motlanthe. CapitalFM |
Only a month left for the road to Mangaung and it seems like it is going to be a very hectic event just like it happened in Limpopo, 4years ago. We have been hearing and reading of the Mangaung Conference since the beginning of this year. Much has been happening with the African National Congress and that on its own makes me wonder how it is going to be come Mangaung Conference in December 2012.
There has been a lot going on in this country and much has happened within the ANC. I mean with President Jacob Zuma’s “SPEAR PAINTING”; the dismissal of Julius Malema and of course the whole Marikana Massacre, surely indeed they have faced a lot of drama including everyone living in South Africa. With Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe going against President Jacob Zuma; this goes to show that the ANC is divided.
The road to Mangaung has been showing that Limpopo Province is against President Zuma bidding as president of the ANC for the second term; but it doesn’t surprise me because it is the hometown of the outspoken Julius Malema who is anti-Zuma of course. Limpopo Province is looking forward to making Kgalema Motlanthe the new ANC president . Even so it is not clear that Kgalema will ever bring any change within the congress or the party and on the other hand how do we know for sure that Zuma is going to bring along some change?
My question is; how long is the ANC going to be divided amongst themselves? How much longer can the people of South Africa be able to bear the things that are happening within the African National Congress and within the whole country? Let’s hope that something good will happen, when Mangaung arrives but it doesn’t look any good and satisfactory to me. Let the games begin.
