Everywhere across the land, there are sparks of new politics as the ANC reaches its end-of-life date.

editor, corporate executive and now public intellectual, Songezo Zibi, has put up his hand to be a future President of South Africa. In Zibi’s new book,“I am prepared to lead, for I know there will be no anointed Messiah at any point in the future. This includes running for president.”

“This reset requires the dismantling of much of the post-1994 elite consensus, in which reform means tweaks by the ANC to a system that is otherwise dysfunctional. Jonathan Oppenheimer funds the foundation, although the book is more social-democratic than extractive-capitalist in its outlook. The Oppenheimers have always invested in South Africa’s future because they built their substantial fortune on the country’s gold and then monopolised its rapid industrialisation., Jonas said South Africa could no longer be held hostage by the ANC’s factional politics.

“No country has succeeded without drawing on the skills, education and drive of its professional class. These are the people the country has educated in science, finance and the humanities to understand the ways of the world better and develop the ideas that will build wealth and prosperity. They are the engine of business, civil society and politics.

At Futurelect, called the aPolitical Academy until recently, Lindiwe Mazibuko is running programmes across southern Africa training leaders for positions in government and to arm those with the desire to run for office with the skills to do so. Her experience leading the opposition DA in Parliament has positioned her well.

Fakhen sellouts who r not der to improve the quality of life for the poor, any President suggested by yt media is the same as the current one. GFY

SongezoZibi please don’t be discouraged. Team up with people who will work both the ground and social media. Our politics need new thinking. Like many other countries South Africa might need to be led by new and young leaders not indebted to anyone.

Zibi would have my vote in a heartbeat.

Who's this men between Lindiwe Mazibuko and Mcebisi Jonas?

Huge ships are spectacular, and when they sink, they sink spectacularly.
