I voted for Gayton McKenzie (& the PA) because he seemed to be doing good, impactful work in the Karoo. He posted his work regularly - like Dr Nasiphi Moya is doing currently in Tshwane.
I had hope that he would do more community-level work with greater power in parliament. I gave him one vote & gave ActionSA one vote.
After the elections, McKenzie became imbongi (a praise singer) & a vocal defender of Cyril Ramaphosa & the ANC.
He has gone back on his promises & today even speaks ill of ordinary SAns crying out about illegal foreigners, after he jumped & screamed "abaHambe" on stage.
If I supported Ramaphosa the way he does, I could've voted for the ANC, but I didn't. The ANC is corrupt, hates SAns & Ramaphosa is the worst president the country has had.
I'm very disappointed in Gayton McKenzie. I'm very disappointed in the PA.
At the time, it seemed like a good decision to vote for Gayton based on his work & where he said he wanted to put in necessary work. He's done a 180 since joining parliament & becoming a minister.
I'm sorry for voting for the PA & giving them power. I will not vote for them again. 🙏🏽
Now... we hold our breath to see if/when ActionSA will also disappoint us... coz seemingly all politicians serve their funders & not their voters nor ordinary SAns.
South Africans are in kak. We need non-racial "Afriforums" run by ppl like Vuyo Zungula, Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma & Dr Nasiphi Moya. Inde lendlela ✊🏽
Happy Sunday, May God bless your efforts, strengthen your faith, and open doors that no one can close. Keep pushing... your breakthrough may be closer than you think. 🙏🏾
