The country is stuck with a fence-sitting president whose words and deeds don’t match.
Many wise biblical words apply to daily life, irrespective of one’s religious convictions. One such quotation can be found in the book of Revelation: “I know what you have done; I know that you are neither cold nor hot ... But because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am going to spit you out of my mouth!”The general perception is that this would be an apt description of the attitude of President Cyril Ramaphosa. On most occasions, his words and deeds do not match.
From an economic point of view, Ramaphosa has two choices. He could promote a growth policy through which unemployment would be drastically reduced, corruption and theft would be reduced, and all South Africans would strive to be voluntary builders of a positive future. Or he could continue to increase unemployment, seek to increase economic dependency on state grants and turn a once prosperous South Africa into a land of eventual dependency on food aid.
