From my series “Burning Madibas”. My take on Zuma’s attempt to “beautify” and hide his acts of corruption. I find myself wondering just how far the country will stray from Mandela’s legacy. South Africa needs to press the reset button and return the country to the moral high ground that Mandela wished to see. ⁣ My hope is our government will rise to the occasion. ⁣
