There is serious unrest in townships in South Africa. Black South Africans feel they have been waiting too long to see any material benefit to their lives even though ANC has been in uninterrupted power for almost two decades. After Nelson Mandela things have been going steadily downhill. Although an educated man Thabo Mbeki is said to have been too autocratic and unwilling to listen to anyone. Crime was allowed to get out of hand. A Medical Research Council study found that about a quarter of all men admitted to having raped a woman at some time and one in twenty admitted to doing it more than once. That is a shocking statistic. Mbeki's denial of HIV allowed AIDS to become an epidemic and this encouraged tuberculosis to become a leading killer. From MDR TB we now have XDR or extreme drug resistant TB. Mbeki's support of Mugabe has been the main reason why this murderous monster is still in power in Zimbabwe. Eventually Mbeki lost the confidence of the ANC and was forced to resign. Jacob Zuma is now the President, a man who managed to dodge rape and corruption charges and says he took precaution against HIV by taking a shower. A polygamist who sings violent songs to energise his supporters he now has to confront rebellion by his own people. Couple of days ago he warned that anyone indulging in violence will be severely dealt with. Isn't that what Mugabe says?
