The headline on today's Sunday Times was something of a treat, and, being a week until Christmas dawns on us (I still have bought zilch presents), was nothing short of a bad omen for the year to follow.The headline read "Juju ridicules 'Shower Man'" and goes on to explain how the infamous Juju is doing what he must to garner even more support from ANC members through his dissing of our dear JZ.
While our country is in such a fragile economic and political state, it is frightening to witness the destruction of the African National Congress at the hands of such a buffoon.
This photograph reminded me only too well of the rise and ridicule of neo-colonialism in Africa as depicted in Ayi Kwei Armah's "The Beautiful Ones are not yet born". I quote Armah on his novel:
"Alone, i am nothing. i have nothing.we have power.but we will never know it,we will never see it work.unless we come together to make it work."
