Sometimes the ANC government really puzzles me – perhaps the
understatement of the year. They sing praises and provide full vocal political support
to ZANU PF which is one part of a Global Political Agreement in a country so
volatile that s*#t can hit the fan anytime 'His (so called) Exellency RGM' sneezes.
When it’s time for their ‘nationalist’
partners ZANU PF to reciprocate they are nowhere to be seen. In actual fact, they
literally snub them, now here’s the funny part – the ANC are actually surprised
and embarrassed by this behaviour.
After standing by ZANU PF over the years the South African government should
be pulling them by the naughty ear to the negotiation table to ensure that the
mediation process for Zimbabwe’s forthcoming transition is ‘powered through’
and implemented. THERE IS TOO MUCH AT STAKE!!
The time has come for the South African government and the entire SADC
region to toughen up against ZANU PF after all this is the institution that has
sweepingly destabilised the entire region over the past decade or so through its
stubbornness and callous nature. Dare we imagine how far the SADC region would
have come by now if ZANU PF where reasonable? Maybe it’s time for the ANC and
SADC to knock this ‘reason’ into their
heads.
In the words of Mos Def ‘...the hard headed always gotta feel it to
believe it!!’
