RW Johnson’s message of hope: As end of catastrophic ANC rule draws nearer, far better awaits South Africa
A comment under an RW Johnson contribution to BizNews describes South Africa’s former Oxford Don as “the most astute political analyst we have”. Johnson’s level-headed, rational assessment of SA politics is evident in this fascinating discussion on two of his articles recently published on the website – the first on the ANC Conference; the second about Eskom. Johnson’s conclusion: both are examples of chaos which is accompanying the end of the ANC’s “catastrophic” rule – together with hope that its replacement will herald a significant improvement for the country’s citizens. He spoke to Alec Hogg of BizNews.
