Young South Africans prefer Kgalema Motlanthe to Jacob Zuma as a presidential candidate, although neither of them are that popular. A survey was implemented in south africa using cellphone during the fisrt two weeks of August based on who is the best candidate for presidency.

The outcome were as follows:
- 23% of the youth said that they would like president Zuma to continue his presidency for 2014
- 36% chose deputy president Kgalema Mohlanthe
- 41% of the respondents rejected both the candidates
- 20% of the respondents did not care who is their president
I do not how a survey is going to help the already too much existing issues that we already have. Given the choice according to a lot of south african youth Kgalema Mohlanthe seems to be the ultimate choice between the two. The survey was conducted to a number amounting to 4637 South africans aged between 18 and 34.
Are we really going to utilise our time by trying to alter a cabinet extiguished with prominent members of society who merely do not work hard enough to eradicate or curb the problems facing us as a nation.
The only way we can show our corparation in affair is by voting. Are we as the youth voting? are you voting? or do we expect things to change themselves. Like the quote says " Ask not what your country can do for you, but rather what can you do for your country." Do you think if Kgalema Mohlanthe is given the opportunity he can do better? http:// www,timeslive.co.za/politics/2012/08/12
Me too, I am one of those prefering Motlanthe, but I am so reluctant wether he will do better. When Mbeki was still reining they wanted Zuma to become the president, having high expactations that he will be the better president. Now, they want Motlanthe, does that mean he will finish his period as the president before they want something else. But, we as people have different conceptions when it comes to these policians who have newly become propagandists, they do nothing from the botom of their hearts, excepts for publicity and power as well as fulfiling the pesonal desires and endeavours
ReplyDeleteThe question to ask is whether Mr Kgalema will do anything different from Msholozi... I have not seen much, except for the weddings.
ReplyDeleteWith no any doubt Mangaung is going to be a year of history in the ANC.Hopefully who ever who is going to take reign after Zuma will make S.A much better.
ReplyDeleteEither way between the two candidates i dnt see any change.
ReplyDeleteMay the best candidate win, because in my understanding both man have the same qualities and they are capablr of running the country in the same way.
ReplyDeleteMay the best candidate rule the country in a justified way because damage control has to take place.
ReplyDeleteI prefer kgalema Mohlanthe... Period.
ReplyDeleteWhat difference is he going to make any way
