Jonathan Ochom, “The Unchained Thoughts,” in comment to “Mandela Legacy Haunts South Africa,” wrote: “I think the Mandelas did their part. His successors should have leveraged the benefits of the ‘bad deal’ to re-negotiate something better now. Let’s face it: Mandela and crew had aged, become weak and I dare say, tired of fighting. 26 years of prison naturally will have a toll on anyone. He and team, in my view, were not in the best state to negotiate a deal. But guess what, they had to make a concession. The Zumas, Mbekis and Cyrils had and still have the duty to fix the issues that have emerged now. Referencing to the ‘bad deal’ won’t help that much now.”
Ochom’s astute observations seem the more valid today.
It is urgent that the rainbow nation genuinely and truly reckons with its past.
The current status quo, black South African’s weaponized and lashing out against fellow black South Africans; and against black Africans of other nationalities is simply a symptom.
A symptom that time is up!
The rainbow nation bubble has burst. It is an opportunity for reckoning and renegotiation, in order that all within the rainbow nation be and feel apart of it.
