Will ANC fall below 50%? | EFF 10th Anniversary, Mbalula vs Mantashe, Phala Phala, PhD advice tips

[@lindokuhletonono4509]

Wow, Dr Mpofu! This was actually intellectually stimulating and thought-provoking! Struck a lot of cords for me! This is by far the best interview from where I stand! Please PROFESSIONALIZE the civil service!

[@phumzilendamase7535]

I liked it so much. What propably disturbs me about the whole body politic in our country is the fact that it only involves the defunct ANC and nothing about our country. It is perhaps cordial for every South African citizen to roll up his sleeves and save our forgotten country from the demise by the so called liberators who destroyed. The last three decades was about the ANC at the expense of South Africa. We now need people who will take pride in rebuilding the remains of South Africa if there are any to fix together. We need a strong government to put pieces together for future generations and the welfare of our kids. Hopefully the storm will be over after the National Elections in 2024. Politics should be about recovery from the thirty year destruction by the African National Destruction Congress.

[@cody_dbn]

Very interesting insight and analysis of parties like Rise Mzansi, BOSA and the offer they bring to professionals who have a lot to contribute to South Africa. I really hope these two parties do well in 2024 and form part of a broader administration.

[@kwezilomsosonkwala4933]

It's interesting that Dr. Ongama brings up the issue of marginalized professionals who have the prospects to live outside of politics. This is another political issue that needs to be studied carefully. BIG UP🔥🔥🔥

[@thulanitshabalala6522]

Yea I definitely agree with Doc that black professionals feel marginalised in politics. And I use the word feel very intentionally. My position is black professional due to them being disciplined through the type of higher education system we have in South Africa or the hegemonic education system that makes an average black student believe that politics is something “lesser” and factual believe that politics will limit their level of access or penetration they can have into the professional class. This is why an average developing professional believe politics is something that should be abandoned. So the marginalisation in my view is internal because it’s contradicts the popular notion that we professionals a above this politics thing. Which is the reason why any “radical” political discourse is completely unwelcomed and uncomfortable at best in cooperate normal day to day functions. Adding to this, most professional due to their class position feel a need to impose themselves to the lower classes of workers, like their ideas and contributions are inherently superior. So professional’s want to abandon politics as a means to make themselves palatable to cooperate spaces then want to go back to politics when it is most convenient or when they finally realise how irreconcilable this system is, then expect no criticism or interrogation and worse impose themselves on people who stick by politics. So instead of professionals gracefully reconciling themselves with other “lower” worker + peasants and being in solidarity on equal grounding with them as for them due to the nature of their work were perhaps forced to stick with politics. But currently professionals instead want to impose and have unwarranted expectations which is what causes the conflict. (this is a very shallow brief explanation)

[@mxolisimaome9651]

Do professionals go to the ANC...or they exp ct the ANC to come to them...If anything, the beneficiaries of ANC gvt are the professionals and white people...imagine the rural poor who continue to hope for freedom

No, Mr Mtimnka, the voting rates for ANC started to reduced from the first time we saw the ANC fist fight between Mandela and Holomisa ,don't forget that, because, we saw a red line between the two arrivals including the creation of the cope and udm, that's where a stalemate starts. We ask ourselves many questions during those hard times.Many of us starts not to involve themselves in politics. Many people don't vote and many of them are fed and decided not to vote since the ANC has shown no interest to its citizens especially when they foresee that things are not the way they were told, we are still suffering.

[@firstcomment749]

What if the phala phala money was for the anc + not for Rama?

Cyril has been on a purge of the far left of ANC using his pawns. Mbalula is his biggest pawn and he took it with confidence, others follow based of fear rather support of Ramaphosa. Gwede is one of the last of the far left he needs to get rid of, he is the current and last stumbling block of his legacy(Green Energy and complete privatization). Great Analysis from the Doctor.

You just do not listen. If you do, you may be selective in listening. It has been clearly explained many times. You may also conduct your own research on the subject matter. Establishing a State Bank does not mean Nationalization of Private Banks. Conduct a research on how State Banks used to operate during Apartheid. It's not starting with the EFF. Also conduct a study reforms introduced by Franklin Roosevelt in the US during his administration.

If the voters were to vote purely based on actual facts on the ground, i.e, electricity supply and its impact on the economy, out of control unemployment figures, erosion of our state institutions created by our forebears to guarantee a solid foundation from which to build the Rainbow Nation and African Renaissance dream, climbing interest rates that have enslaved the vast majority of south africans to crippling high cost of living, wholesale looting through corruption.....the ANC would drop below 40%. But alas, the SA vote is still paralyzed by its ANC fidelity, even in the face of all the aforementioned shortcomings. Considering the later point, i proffer that the ANC could land anywhere between 46 - 48% mark. Our beautiful country is suffering from a deficit of vision and in desperate need of leaders with unimpeachable rectitude.

This is good thing coz now they starting to make sense to us who never forget our calculatorsat home when we listen to ideology.
