President Jacob Zuma: "I have a COUNTRY to RUIN"
Furore over Jacob Zuma penis painting (Brett Murray's The Sear) exposes the ANC's increasingly thin skin. The ruling ANC party, who has more than 65% support and has been in government since 1994 should be big enough to ignore a man with a paintbrush and concentrate on governing? After ANC secretary general Gwede Mantashe called for a boycott of City Press, the editor, Ferial Haffajee decided to take down the photo of the painting from the City Press Website as she feared for safety and lives of the newspaper vendors and the violence it may create.
ANC / Brett Murray / City Press /
Jacob Zuma / Gwede Mantashe / Nathi Mthethwa
City Press editor backs down
The Spear: The ANC's phony outrage - Brent Meersman says the fuss was manufactured to assist Jacob Zuma's re-election at Mangaung
An open letter to Ferial Haffajee - Eusebius McKaiser responds to The Spear's virtual death
We must never give in to bullies - Mmusi Maimane, DA national spokesperson says it is unfortunate City Press has buckled to political pressure
Mthembu denies any split in ANC over 'Spear' - The ANC has claimed it is unanimous in its condemnation of 'The Spear', despite reports suggesting otherwise.
Spare us the schoolboy satire of 'The Spear' - Some random cock and balls plonked onto a picture of the president does not good satire make,
...So we played the RACE CARD whipped up a FRENZY, the PAINTING got CONVENIENTLY DESTROYED and we BULLIED City Press into removing it from their site
GOOD! Now can we move ON? if you'll excuse me
.. I have a country to RUiN
