   The writer is an apologist or someone who writes from a position of observation rather than experience. Who stole the land from who considering history records that the Khoi Sans were driven away from the land. The obviously does not see anything wrong with how Jacob Zuma has risked the sovereinty of SA by selling out to families like the Gupta’s who bought their citizenship around about 1994 and have had no history of building the economy of this country apart from capturing it and our cabinet for self gain. Peaceful marches are one way of citizens expressing their frustrations and calling for change, the other extreme is violence and I wonder if the writer would have been satisfied with that option. Rember that opposition parties have called out on numerous occassions for the President to step down. A motion was moved in Parliament but not supported by the ANC. Derek Hanekom tabled it at their NEC meeting thereto it wasnt supported. Where is Derek Hanekom today? The writer must understand that this is about Good Governance and not about race. When South Africans stood up and challenged the Nationslist Government it was for a better South Africa for all and certainly not only for the Zuma family, the Gupta’s and a few priviledged individuals. Please stop making it about race, write about facts.
