Gareth Cliff talks about the shocking revelations surrounding President Cyril Ramaphosa’s family and the billions looted from Tembisa Hospital. Money meant for medicine, doctors, and patients has instead fuelled a parade of excess and greed.
He says what many South Africans are thinking. Corruption is no longer a surprise; it is the lifestyle that follows it that disgusts the nation. The so-called tender class spends stolen public money on luxury cars, mansions, and nightclub tables while hospitals collapse and lives are lost. “This has nothing to do with empowerment,” Gareth says. “It is pure greed, dressed up as transformation.”
Can South Africa still recover when those stealing from the sick live like kings?
