I REFER to the letter from Siya Mkhize in the Northglen News dated 19 February, which again ends with stirring up anti-white racism by demanding compensation for Apartheid.
Ironically, this starts with the admission that our democratically-elected president virtually stole taxpayers’ money to build his palace at Nkandla, and demanding that the money is returned to taxpayers, failing which, SA is a political joke.
Clearly, Mkhize rarely reads newspapers. Nkandla is only the tip of the iceberg of corruption and abuse of public funds in SA since 1994, with so-called ‘struggle heroes’ and black ministerial and managerial appointees in the public service featuring prominently as culprits. (Whites cannot be blamed for what happens in the public service as they have been denied entry to, or promotion in it, for many years.)
Any reader who feels my claims are lies or exaggerations should read the recently published book by RW Johnson; ‘How Long will South Africa Survive? The Looming Crisis’. This shows that due to untenable anti-white racism, Marxism and corruption, SA has been a political joke for many years, culminating with alarm expressed recently by the International Monetary Fund and colossal devaluation of our currency since 1994.
RW Johnson is well qualified to write about SA. He was an ANC activist, a communist sympathiser and is an honorary Oxford Don. Mkhize is looking for money in the wrong place (again). He should be asking ministers, managers and public servants for it.
