Sisulu had criticised the lack of transformation and economic reconciliation, arguing that since the new constitution and the rule of law,“What we have instead witnessed under the supreme constitution and the rule of law since 1994 has been co-option and invitations to political power brokers to the dinner table, whose job is to keep the masses quiet in their sufferance,” she argued.
“The purpose of the constitution is to deal with the very issues that she’s speaking about: healing the pains and divisions of the past, ensuring there is social justice, dealing with the imbalances of the past is an imperative of this constitution,” Gungubele said. Gungubele said it was not usual that the government distanced itself from remarks made by cabinet ministers, but that in this case it was important to do so because of the position Sisulu holds in society.
Though Sisulu was writing in her personal capacity, Gungubele said it was a reckless use of the right to express her own view because she had taken an oath of office. But he admitted that the constitution may be flawed in many ways.
The Constitution has not failed us. The implementation thereof & accountability to, by the SA govt & political parties is what has FAILED. Where is MEANINGFUL consequence management in public service? Accountability & redress? Legislation protects public servants NOT Citizens.
Why don’t you suspend her…..she is clearly not aligned to the team……
Why is she still keeping her job
She must be fired.
Can someone just wake this woman up
Truth truth Minister Sisulu
How exactly is the constitution keeping people in poverty when the black middle class has only grown and countless number of people have uplifted themselves? It’s government’s own failures for increased unemployment and a collapsing economy. Not the constitution
Which government, you mean that is led by the factional ramalier? There's no government in South Africa, this country is leaderless......
