The Super Cadres - ANC Misrule...

Pieter Du Toit

The ANC’s obsession with cadre deployment and total control has taken South Africa to the brink of destruction. 
  
After taking power, the ANC implemented its policy of cadre deployment. It sought command of all levers of power, from the Cabinet, through the civil service, down to municipal level. 
  
Despite the party recently lasing its majority, cadre deployment will ensure that the ANC maintains its iron grip on power and patronage, and it remains fused with the state. 
  
In The Super Cadres, bestselling author Pieter du Toit exposes how Nelson Mandela and Thabo Mbeki laid the foundation for complete ANC control of the state, how Jacob Zuma's ANC exploited it and why Cyril Ramaphosa is complicit in the destruction that followed. 
  
It is a searing critique of the ANC's desire for untrammelled power.
