De Beer: Zuma holds the “dirty secret” Aces; Mashatile fires a warning shot; Shivambu in MK power move

Loading player...
In this latest Sunday Show with Neil De Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement (UIM) identifies former President Jacob Zuma as the politician who holds the most aces in the “dirty tricks department” of hidden scandals involving other politicians. “…he always uses the security conclave and the intelligence scenario. And that's why he's always one ahead…I don't think there's people that can counter MK at this moment on that deep dark level.” Analysing the appointment of Floyd Shivambu as the MKP’s Secretary General, De Beer says: “He's going to solidify them. But at the same time, make no mistake, he's also going to kill EFF.” De Beer dissects the possible motive behind Deputy President Paul Mashatile’s stance that the Government of National Unity (GNU) would survive a Democratic Alliance (DA) exit. He also lists the politicians in the African National Congress (ANC) Top 7 whom he believes are indictable and impeachable. And he describes how the flaunting of laws have created two current national crises.
