This rule of law victory does not mean we should be naïve and think that the forces of State Capture and the underworld will go down without a fight. These people are not reasonable or fair.

Last week our lead story focused on the slow turnaround at SARS and the NPA as they break free from the shackles of almost a decade of State Capture, successfully starting to net a range of crooks who have been raiding the state coffers and dodging tax. The headline was also based on the Constitutional Court’s decision to send Jacob Zuma to jail for refusing to answer to the Commission of Inquiry into State Capture.

The stirring of the predatory elite was evident over the weekend when the guns, sticks and spear brigade broke all Lockdown Level 4 rules and threatened war if their patron was imprisoned. It was also evident on Friday, 9 July when #FreeJacobZuma and #KZNShutDown supporters used trucks to block roads. These are thugs and criminals in all sectors of the state and various business enterprises who would rather destroy everything in sight than lose their chance of feeding from the trough.

If the first family of Zuma, his Gupta friends and the rest of the hyenas did not ravage every level of state, we would have been in a much healthier financial position and much better prepared to deal with the devastating impact of the pandemic.
