Talking about the ANC's Legacy: Pieter du Toit on The Super Cadres

Loading player...
Join us on Pagecast as bestselling author Pieter du Toit delves into the complex legacy of the African National Congress (ANC) in South Africa. In his latest book, The Super Cadres, du Toit examines the party's journey from its early promise to its current state of dysfunction. He explores pivotal questions about the ANC's rise to power, the inevitability of its failures, and the impact of each presidency from Mandela to Ramaphosa. Du Toit argues that the ANC's policy of "cadre deployment" has been at the heart of its downfall, leading to corruption and incompetence. Tune in as Pieter discusses these critical issues with CapeTalk radio presenter John Maytham.
