Mouthful


June 11th, 2020 by richardjmann


Dear ANC


I have just been reading about the Free State mayor with foot firmly lodged in mouth.


I see that you have temporarily suspended him for ‘racist utterances’. I think that’s unfair. There seems to be a serious disconnect between brain and mouth functions. The man is clearly in need of help. Suspension will not help at all. It is cruel to keep the man in a job which is clearly so at variance with his natural gifts and talents. Please find something more suitable for him. There is a fellow at our taxi rank who shouts out “Kouse, fyf rand” into a megaphone for hours on end. This may well be an eminently suitable career for one who enjoys using his mouth and can bypass the inconvenience of engaging brain first. Call it compassionate redeployment. One does feel for people so cruelly disabled.


The question does spring to mind as to where and how you find these chaps. You do seem to have a ready supply, if the news is anything to go by. By ‘these chaps’ I mean the large number of ‘leaders’ who couldn’t lead a one-man scout troop. I’m sure there are lots of competent people available (else we’d be in even worse shape than we are). Please let us know if you need some assistance with selection.


As for the DA, if the allegations about your eloquent Swartland mayor are true, does your inaction mean consent? Asking for a friend.


Yours in the struggle to find competent, thoughtful leaders.


Richard
