Comrade Patrice good for capital
Shwa has woken from a slumber and can tell you now that the Patrice Motsepe campaign for ANC president is a real thing and will most likely succeed.
Khongolose has always been friendly to capital and one way or another its leaders were beholden to the fellows with deep pockets.
But that game of buying outsiders has been a big gamble for capital because sometimes it would backfire. It did, for instance, for them, when that Nkandla crooner went to bed with those Indian looters.
This was why capital could not commit the same mistake in 2017 when they deployed one of their own, the nation’s Cupcake.
But the problem with McBuffalo is that he is too indecisive, so capital has found a better version – his brother-in-law Patrice Motsepe. The national bread winner and master of handouts is their ace card.
Shwa feels bad for the many cadres who have waited for their turn for so long only to be overtaken by a johnny-come-lately.
