The Way Africa Operates (REVISED)

After Sunday newspapers I feel depressed, ‘African time’
Redi Tlhabi suggests ruled again at the Economic Forum
in Cape Town without courtesy of cancellations* or the
protagonists arriving on time – and she ended by saying:
“There is NO such thing as ‘African time’, just plain
incompetence, inefficiency and arrogance”

“Africa’s where ministers and presidents lie to the people
with impunity, says Eben Meiring, accountability, liability
& transparency are unheard of; Zuma’s democracy means
majorities have more rights than minorities, voting ANC
means an automatic visa to heaven while voting otherwise
will call down the wrath of our forefather spirits”

Revolutionaries in power like hashish, strong drink and fat
 women, ours is the continent of dictators & megalomania
without ethics; Africa’s dappled morality is Zuma happily
celebrating Nkandla and Guptagate in the same way –
going for a two-thirds majority regardless of any outrage
regarding the might of the Gupta-family

Why complain – it is the way Africa operates…

eight hours later because her aides had double booked her and
had not informed her of the interview.
