Justice Malala's column "All the president's men" (19/9/16), highlighted the prevalence of metastasised mediocrity rooted in most of President Zuma's cabinet ministers. We all know who they are - no need to elaborate.
Zuma and his sycophants are not only failing us miserably, but also putting future generations in great peril. They simple don't care because their self-interest and welfare comes first. It is an inescapable truth of political life in South Africa.
Zuma's yes-men and women follow his example by putting their self-serving interests before that of the nation. It is called "self-preservation", and it is destroying the country from within.
When one adds self-preservation to the recipe for mediocrity, and include ingredients of incompetence, corruption and wrongdoing, the end result is a modern day witches' brew - a toxic concoction that is inexorably poisoning the lifeblood of the nation.
