Zuma: A President to be Respected and Trusted?

Zuma: A President to be Respected and Trusted or A President to be Booted Out?

Can You Trust and Respect This Man?

In a democracy where the people has spoken and decided by means of a fair election who must lead and govern the country, those who did not vote for the winning party or are not supporters of that party must accept this principle and actually support the elected government, to put the country first! That is where the expectation also comes from that the elected president and government must be trusted and respected.

But, a coin always has two sides and equally true and applicable is the principle that the president and his government are there to serve all citizens of that country and all citizens must also be equally respected, everyone is equal and the country comes first.

Unfortunately these noble principles of a democracy are not applicable to Zuma anymore. My opinion is that it was never applicable to him. Remember, whoever you are, you do not deserve respect and trust, you must earn it, and once you have earned it, you will deserve it.

From day one when he was elected for his first term, he did nothing to earn the trust and respect from all citizens. Think for yourself, could/can he be trusted when during the election campaign he sang with his rowdy supporters “Kill the Boer?” Certainly not, I for one do not and cannot trust him, will never!

And as his term continued and he even went into the second term he became more and more untrustworthy and since his first election up to today, he did not move a finger to earn respect. How can I respect him if he does not respect me, does not respect my language, does not respect my heritage, using every opportunity to blame the White people for everything that went wrong at the hands of the ANC during the past 21 years? And how can I respect and trust if he does not move a finger to safeguard my language and heritage, or my rights?

And the cherry on top was when he publically announced that the ANC comes first, only after that South Africa.

Can you trust and respect such a president. I cannot, I despise him!

Is this a Defence Force we as South Africans must Trust and Respect?

Read this news item first: Army of Sex Pests

Is this a defence Force we must trust and respect? I don’t think so.

But then, what can we trust and respect now-a-days in South Africa?

Certainly not the general public service – service delivery is down the drain. The only thing they can do good is toy-toy and strike for more money.

Certainly not the SAPS – not all the criminal elements within the Service and with a Commissioner who should long ago been fired for the Marikana fiasco and the Lamoer issue.

Certainly not the Post Office – we do not know whether they strike or not because whether they strike or not, their service is pathetic.

Certainly not Eskom – they are incompetent to management the electricity supply for South Africa and therefore Eskom can collapse any day.

Certainly not the various MPD’s – the less we say about them the better!

Certainly not the ANC – the less we say about them the better.

And what about Zuma??  He is the least anybody can trust!

But let us go back the news item under discussion. With a President who in court stated that he did not used condoms because he took showers after sex, what example is he setting for all males in South Africa, including all male soldiers?  No wonder the Defence Force is

In conclusion, I ask again, is this a Defence Force we must trust? NO!! Rather be afraid, very afraid!

I do not trust Zuma nor respect him!
