The ANC is “increasingly disturbed” by the comments made by Tutu… I wonder why that is. Maybe there’s truth in his words. Lets face it, do we Really want a president that has 16 charges of fraud, corruption, racketeering and money laundering hanging over his head? Do we Really want a president who faced a rape charge (even though he was found not guilty) and believes a shower will protect you from HIV?

The ANC believes that Zuma’s case should be dealt with in a transparent, fair and legal manner, so would that not be achieved in a court of law? Why are they trying so hard to have the case dropped?

If they believe that Jacob Zuma is not guilty and they believe in our constitution and they believe in our Justice system then why are they so afraid of Zuma’s day in court?

Is it because he isn’t innocent and they know it? After all, Schabir Shaik was convicted on fraud and corruption charges that involved Jacob Zuma. So that says a court of law found, beyond a reasonable doubt, that there was a fraudulent and corrupt act between Shaik and Zuma. Has that fact been forgotten? If Zuma was the other person involved in the fraudulent act that sent Shaik to prison, then surely Zuma should be summoned to Court to prove his innocence, especially after the Judge found the relationship between Shaik and Zuma to be “generally corrupt”

If the case goes ahead then Zuma cannot be president after the elections, assuming the ANC remains the ruling party, but is that a bad thing? Is this Really the type of person we want as the President of South Africa?

The ANC needs to consider what is best for South Africa and the people of South Africa and not what is best for the ANC and its corrupt politicians!

I think Tutu was spot on when he said South Africa was at a “bad place right now”. South Africa is at a bad place and the uncertain future of this country is scary.

I suspect the charges will be dropped and the real reason will have nothing to do with the strength of the case against Jacob Zuma.
