During President Zuma's State of the Nation Address, he said that the murder rate in South Africa declined by 8, 6 percent in the past year. Tax payers, 8, 6 percent is not good enough! We are not safe.
Sex crimes against children, women and the elderly are rife. A father slits his daughter’s throat before she can tell anyone that her dad tried to rape her best friend. Serial killings are a trend. House break-ins take place while families feel safe behind their locked doors and security gates. The robbers are smarter than the engineers who designed your fancy alarm systems and electric fencing.
Parents no longer leave their children in the care of the “trusted” neighbours. Fewer families take a stroll in the neighbourhood park. Muggers target hikers on Table Mountain.
Voters, take a closer look before you cast your vote.
I have been going on about this for a while. Very good observation Cindy! People are not voting for valid reasons. It is very important to think carefully about who you vote for and the type of life you want to live. If we want change, we need to change the way we think! Well done!
ReplyDeleteMany South Africans are either ignorant to the issues surrounding them or are uneducated. Political parties and their leaders play on these facts, and so capture votes by saying what the citizens want to hear as they don't know any better. This is quite sad as the parties do not deliver.
