The SIU report into Digital Vibes has given the president an opening that should make things somewhat easy for him.
When Dr Zweli Mkhize was forced to step aside from his role as minister of health, there were allegations that President Cyril Ramaphosa had already embarked on his campaign to be re-elected for a second term as president of the ruling party. It was alleged that the Digital Vibes corruption allegations against Mkhize were a political ploy to get rid of him.
Mkhize, whom events had catapulted into a position not too far from that of the presidency in terms of power, did not do much to quash the rumours that he was a victim of the CR22 re-election machinery. The recent events that left so much economic devastation in KZN and parts of Gauteng would never have been as bad as they were if some ministers were doing their jobs.
That was just clumsy and reeks of insubordination, in full view of the public. This past week, national commissioner of police Khehla Sithole came out and declared in public that the national police service was in very bad shape.
