Weighing in on the tweets, Maimane said things were “really better when certain people” were taking a break from Twitter. “There are many problems with the way that BBBEE was implemented by the ANC but the idea of comparing it to apartheid laws is one that seeks to spark division and to undermine national unity,” said Maimane.ender is merely a 'social construct' but race is a biological absolute”.“We need to move past a broken ruling party. We need to move past a broken apartheid and colonial legacy,” he said.
“Apartheid was a war crime. Apartheid was worse than anything post 1994. Those periods are not comparable. Let’s come together with honesty about our past and present.”There are many problems with the way that BBBEE was implemented bu the ANC but the idea of comparing it to apartheid laws is one that seeks to spark division and to undermine national unity.
