Jacob Zuma visited Balfour about two weeks ago, for the second time, where there were some of the most militant service delivery protest last year in July 2009 and even this year. The first time when he was in Balfour, he said he was there to investigate for himself what is happening. This time around, when he was there he said he is there also to investigate. So, for how long will Jacob Zuma be investigating rather than taking an action? It makes me wonder whether he was not trying to cool the people of Balfour and others that he visited so that service delivery protests don’t erupt. When it erupted in Balfour this year, almost the entire country was burning as a result. That was just a desperate measure for Jacob Zuma to come to Balfour without a proper programme to improve our lives. That’s why he was booed by the masses that day. We patiently waited for him, but he gave us nothing tangible. |
