The Times – Police should shoot to kill: Mbalula.
“We are sick and tired of crime in our communities,” said ANC head of campaigns Fikile Mbalula to wild applause. “As the ANC we say criminals must be shot in broad daylight, finish and klaar.”
We at least we know that if there is ever another South African party naming crisis, the ANC could always switch to the PPP: People’s Populist Party or maybe JJE: Judge, Jury, Executioner.
But wait it gets better!
Mbalula told ANC supporters not to be persuaded into voting for Cope and the Democratic Alliance.
He accused the two parties of misleading South Africans when they claimed that they would address social and economic problems if voted into power.
He accused DA leader Helen Zille of destroying Cape Town, saying she has turned “it into a racist capital of the world”.
“Zille is not looking after the interests of our people. She just wants your vote.”
That’s so good I think we should quote it again:
“Zille is not looking after the interests of our people. She just wants your vote.”
It won’t matter as the ANC is predicted to take 64.7% of the vote, but it is still too bad. The South African people deserve more than a one party system.
