The foundations have cited issues, including a rushed time frame that has shifted the convention from a citizen and civil society-led initiative to a government-controlled process.

Khoza has questioned the credibility of some of the leaders expected to address the concerns of South African citizens. “One of the things that is happening in South Africa, which I consider extremely tragic, is that we’ve kind of allowed a situation where ethical and moral voices are sidelined, one way or the other.
