In the latest edition of the NdB Sunday Show, Chris Steyn talks to Renaldo Gouws, former parliamentarian, industrial psychologist and podcaster. Joining the chorus of outrage over President Cyril Ramaphosa going to Zimbabwe and praising their Land Reform programme, he says: “…there's one president that deserves to be kicked out as soon as possible, that would be Squirrel RamaMampoer”. Lamenting the assassination of insolvency lawyer Bouwer van Niekerk, he says: “…it’s just reached a point where these individuals need to almost wear bulletproof vests to protect themselves. But once again, because of the syndicates that we have, because of the government that we have, crime thrives, criminals are protected, and the people that want to blow the lid on corruption are ultimately the ones that are executed because that is what happened.” Gouws dissects the race scandal at Stellenbosch Municipality where the HR manager was recorded making a case for the exclusion of white men. Meanwhile, he is not surprised that US President Donald Trump has declined an invitation to the upcoming G20 Summit in South Africa. “There’s just been this constant attack from South Africa towards the United States. And ultimately, we are dealing with somebody that is far more powerful than us. And look, I understand that if we stood on principle, then that could be a valid reason. But what principle are we standing on?” Gouws also has something to say about the attacks on independent podcasters and alternative media
