SA had enough of ANC fat cats

The life and death of David Mabuza, our former deputy president, gives so much insight into the ways and wiles of the organisation which raised him and which he championed – the ANC.

The party long ago moved from being a liberation movement to an organisation in which power was the currency because, through power came access to the levers of government power and, in turn, seemingly unlimited public funds.

Mabuza's route to power suffered an early setback when he was fired from his position as Mpumalanga education MEC by the then premier, Mathews Phosa, after the province's matric results were faked in the mid-1990s.
