Solly Moeng - Zuma & Duduzane, Cyril & Madlanga, Bozell & Lamola…

In their latest weekly chat, Chris Steyn and political commentator Solly Moeng talk about the headline-grabbing actions of former President Jacob Zuma and the headline grabbing non-action of current President Cyril Ramaphosa: Zuma appointing his son, Duduzane, as MKP’s Deputy President while Ramaphosa has been sitting on the second interim report of the Madlanga Commission for over two months.

You know, we're all going…yeah, let's protect South Africa, but we're actually protecting the stuff that is working against us here at home. …We need politicians here to know that they cannot just do anything and tell us yeah, let's protect the country when we're actually protecting them.”
