I feel that the situation in South Africa could have been provented. It is worst now with limited educated people ruling the country that when more intellengent leaders were in power. Aids is running wild in South Africa and the ministers and the president have a grade eight level of education and limited knowledge on such issues as AIDS, where they think that if they have a shower or a bath after having sex will stop AIDS. Or by having sex with a minor of virgin will cure them of AIDS, all the while they are spreading AIDS more and more infecting more people and condeming them to a death at a young age. Where are the intellegence of the people in South Africa? I am shocked when I hear of such things, how could any one follow any one with such negelect for life. I would question any one who thinks along the lines as the President and Ministers of South Africa

I may be an outsider coming from Alaska, but I lived in Capetown (I attended UWC) for a good amount of time. I was there during the 2000 US election and was teased that we were having an “African” election. It was joke that contained some truth though. I loved the RSA but I saw it descending into a one-party state. It’s not healthy for a country. As much as we complain about partisan politics, it’s good to have two parties that bicker than it is to only have one party that rubber stamps everything and turns a blind eye to it’s own members. We had a taste of that these last 8 years and look what happened. If these opposition parties hope to have any success then they need to unite under one banner even if they don’t all agree. They need to get past their differences even if they are great because if a legit counter to the ANC doesn’t arise I fear for the long-term stability of RSA and the wider SADC region.

Legal prosedures don’t cost billions of Rand, corruption, however, does. Letting a man even accused of corruption lead this country in this fragile time could prove fatal. Get your info straight. Prosecute the man, if an objective court of law finds him innocent, let that be, but a ruling needs to be given on this matter. The freedom and credibility of every South African is in danger here.

The case against candidate president Zuma should be dropped because South Africa has proved to be incapacitated to deal with complex political offenses. This has cost tax payers billions of rands which could have been used to assist much embattled consumers. Poverty and inequity in South Africa are prevalent and government should priorities these as a matter of urgency then pursuing political motivated case which is wasting billions of taxpayer’s money. Government this year is running budget deficit because revenues have shrunk in response to slowing economic activity and collapsing global trade hence spending should be prioritized.

I see absolutely no reason why prosecution should be dropped.

It is he who as insisted he wants to appear in court but it is he who has continually delayed the process. So the argument of it taking too long is false. Now is his chance.

Now he has given the NPA “new information” which they have to consider – is this the excuse to withdraw charges. Why does he not simply put all the information he has been fighting to hide in the open.

There is no doubt he influenced the political system by effecting the Nicohlson judgement – how can he claim political influence makes his trial unfair. Influencing the perceptions still doesn’t effect the evidence let us see it in court.

If there are 783 charges how can the ALL be removed.

Zuma is not fit for purpose and he is certainly not fit to govern South Africa. How dare such a man even consider following in the footsteps of Mandela, how dare he be so arrogant as to believe he is worthy to wear the same shoes. And yet his arrogance is born out of ignorance, not just his own but that of his sycophantic supporters, the sort of people who still call each other ‘comrade’ a decade and a half after the revolution has been won ! The sort of people who would elect a clown, if the clown was any colour other than white. And yet what has 15 years of ANC rule really brought to these people, just ask the women, the backbone of any African family as anyone who lives here will tell you. Has it brought security, has it put more food on the table, has it improved medical welfare at the local clinics ? NO to all of the above. That is the legacy of 15 years of ANC rule, a party that takes your vote and spits in your face in return. And yet these people will still turn out in their millions on April 22nd and vote, yet agin, for the ANC, blindly believing that things will be different next time around.
Zuma has been accused of being corrupt, and as we all know power does corrupt. If he is elected next month he will attain a life-long ambition and achieve absolute power here in South Africa and, as we all know, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Each vote for the ANC next month will be yet another nail in South Africa’s coffin because there will be no more investment, there will be no more job-creation, there will be only dispair as the economic stability of our Nation crumbles as businesses collapse.
Zuma does not have the moral fibre to lead South Africa out of recession and back onto the road of prosperity for all. We all know the truth behind the Shabir Schaik scandal….Zuma must be held accountable….he is NOT fit to govern our great land.
