I’m beginning to get the feeling that Jacob Zuma is going to be a really fun President of the country. I mean, he’s already turning out to be such a fun President of the ANC.
The first month of the year isn’t even over, and already he’s taken himself another wife, organised a big bash for Mike Tyson, and come up with the best excuse for abject failure ever to emerge from the mouth of a politician.
Speaking at the University of Zurich this week, the President-in-waiting revealed that the current power crisis in South Africa was an “unintended consequence” of our rapid economic growth since the dawn of democracy in 1994.
In other words, we’ve been doing so well, that you can hardly blame us for screwing up. I am so going to use this the next time I do something stupid after inadvertently doing something smart.
