President Jacob Zuma has called on businesses to help finance the ANC – telling businessmen attending a gala dinner that those who funded the party stood to make more money.
According to the Sunday Times, this announcement was made at Friday night’s gala dinner in Cape Town.
Zuma said: “We’re not forcing people … you can support and be a supporter, but if you go beyond that and become a member, and if you’re a businessman, your business will multiply. Everything you touch will multiply.”
How will Zuma be able to keep this promise without corruption, preferential treatment and Tenderpreneurism, keeping in mind that he devoted much of his speech at the Cape Town stadium as part of the party’s birthday celebrations to talking about corruption, saying there was a misperception that the ANC was largely responsible for it?
“It cannot be…it’s another misrepresentation of fact,” Zuma said
