=Mbeki has no power over Zuma=

I am sick and tired of reading the rubbish, lies and stupidity that your journalists, columnists and editors write about Deputy President Jacob Zuma.

Their views are clearly misinformed, they have ulterior motives and they are paid to spread lies and write poorly researched articles.

You need to realise that the African National Congress (ANC) won the elections overwhelmingly, which means your writers must either keep quiet or find another country to live in if they do not like what is happening.

Yes, there are Africans writing for Business Day. Even in the struggle days there were fools and sellouts — “izimpimpi” — who would have done anything (even sell their souls) to make sure they were paid handsomely.

They are stooges, tokens and windowdressers who only serve to promote their masters’ propaganda. Zuma is not going anywhere because we (the masses) voted him into power and are the only ones who can remove him from office.

Zuma into the presidency come 2007.

The president should not be misguided by the two-thirds majority the ANC obtained last year and think we were voting for him — because we did not.

We voted for the ANC and accepted him, albeit unwillingly, as the president of the party. This is why Zuma declared in 1999 he was not interested in the presidency because Mbeki was clearly nervous and afraid that he may lose to Zuma.

Umsholozi (Zuma’s clan name) has the balls of elephants, and if Mbeki wants to destroy the party, he must rather leave. He has already started destroying his career and legacy. He said poverty causes people to die and not AIDS, when we all know the truth about Parks Mankahlana and Peter Mokaba.

He said unemployment is not rife in SA, and you start wondering which country this man is talking about because the one we live in is full of joblessness.
