And this then, dear ladies and gentleman, is how it goes in the “free and fair, democratic, rainbow nation” New South Africa – if you are an ANC member or official, you practically get away with anything.
Kenny “Barrel” Nkosi, a ward councillor of the Govan Mbeki Municipality representing the ANC, wrote on Facebook the following racist remark:
“The first people that need to fokkof (sic) are whites, Cubans never oppressed and killed us, they supported us. These are our true friends they were there in times on needs. Welcom cdes welcom”
And then there are still people all over the bloody place telling us: All is fine. You don’t need to worry about being a minority group under a majority one-man-one-vote racist government! When do you plan to wake up and smell the coffee?
If indeed this is not the opinion of the ANC, why is Nkosi still a member AND a councillor? In actual fact, the response of the Municipality speaks for itself: “The Speaker had also talked with Nkosi over the matter,” says the press release.
A matter for talking about? Yeah, that is how the ANC works. Imagine this was a white councillor who made the statement about black South Africans? Oh, that would’ve been an entirely different picture then, wouldn’t it? A lot less talking and a lot more screaming of “racism” and “white supremacy” and, inevitably, blaming apartheid somewhere along the line!
Interesting thing to note, in particular for our friends overseas and the liberal fellow South African still clinging to the image of the ANC as a freedom movement: The use of the term ”comrade” is part and parcel of being ANC. We are under a Communist regime, folks, help us out of here!
