Zuma expedites the end of his own reign - Solidarity
13 October 2016
The time has come to oust Zuma so the country does not have to suffer under him anymore.
Chairperson of the Solidarity Movement Flip Buys today said that South Africa simply cannot afford more of Jacob Zuma and he would have to go, or he would have to be asked to go. Zuma is busy expediting the end of his own reign, but he dare not be allowed to drag the country down with him. Zuma, rather than the country, should succumb. It is now just a matter of time before the ANC will turn against him en masse.
This follows after Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan had been issued with a summons which could well be the last straw. The local public and the international community have strongly condemned the Pravin prosecution. Even within ANC circles Gauteng Premier David Makura sided with Pravin, and ANC veterans, such as Cheryl Carolus, lambasted Zuma over the latest step, with more to follow in due course.
According to Buys, it deliberately undermines the economy and deprives people of their sustenance. There are dozens of other reasons why Zuma must go, including the total lack of direction in the face of the university crisis, a weak economy, political instability and a poor government. “Zuma has overstepped a line he should not have overstepped,” Buys said.
