Any way, with the details of Jeff Wiggill's murder and everything leading up to it starting to leak out, the biggest corporate fraud and loan default ever to be seen in South Africa begins getting ugly and embarrassing. These are details of the corporate giants involved in the power stations of Medupi and Kusile and we haven't even touched on the Nuclear Power project yet.
Zuma was seen to be behind the arms deal enquiry getting going, even without a replacement for Judge Francis Legodi who resigned last week. Amazing
So that is ESKOM or as we all call it these days EISHKOM, and the fibres are spreading as TELKOM starts to feel the heat from its anticompetitive behaviour and pays a R200 million fine. We can expect data transfer to get cheaper, TELKOM made a neat ten billion Rand plus from it in the past financial year. Do you feel ripped off? And this from a parastatal.
Talk about being in the poo, the ANC youth league in the Western Cape is trying to extricate itself from the latest incident of the human waste tactic, which they saw as such a good idea. Now they are distancing themselves from the distasteful practice and claiming it was not their members. Am I talking kak or what?
And Helen stands by her defence of education minister Angie. I wonder if Helen will buy her a G String should the underpants saga raise its ugly head again, this time Angie will look a little more hip, maybe even a little more transparent, revealing the truth behind the rot in the education department, probably the most important initiative this country and our government has at hand.
And the pot continues to boil over in the Middle East with Yemen being a catalyst in what I think will be the beginning of a major offensive by America against a number of the Arab states. In my warped mind, it is only a matter of time, all they need is a good excuse, and maybe this is it.
Well when Russia granted Snowden a passport, the Americans were more than disappointed I'm sure. Eddy must have been so chuffed to leave the airport, I know being in transit is only fun when you have an exciting destination, and he was there for long. Bradley Manning could not have been overly relieved when the Judge agreed to merge some of his espionage offenses with Wikileaks and only give him 90 years. Till then, go Brad.
