Without tolerance man is a political animal. The height of discontent in a typical polarized community, creates an incessant impasse with neither side settling for nothing. In this constitution making simulation at the RHS Center for the constitution The Montpelier Foundation the Traditional party led by Vusimuzi Gumbi Chizero Bungubuliho Adegboye OKORO and Abdul Aziz Adamu remains principled to its values and norms. Consequently Fona KONATE Kaoma Kaoma Kalkidan Geda in turn view this position as archaic and retrogressive from the liberal democratic lens. In such a case on one hand, Proportional Representation relatively yields content among all groups, minorities included. While on the other hand a unitary system embraces central majority rule that threatens to undermine all minorities yet assuming a collectivized governance system that caters for all. The case of South Africa is a contemporary juxtapose of the impacts and defects of Proportional Representation. Thanks to Professor Heinz Klug, Dr. D. Tinashé Hofisi, SJD, Patrick Campbell and The Presidential Precinct for facilitating such discussion.

When countries temper with the preamble it is like tempering with the foundation of a house while there's people inside that house. And what you get is a collapse, frustrated nations, and nations that go into war with each other etc. The solution is for nations, and people to recognize the preamble and its power. #laws #success #politics #government #southafrica #africa

This is only relevant as contributory advocacy. The media with which the massage is sent belongs to them, hence, they may choose who views it. Africa should be tired of the blame game by now.

The lovelessness of African forefathers which made them to trade their own born flesh and blood children as a mere chattels (log of woods) is still in the genes of contemporary African rulers. That is why they have weaponized hunger, poverty, insecurity, e.t.c. deliberately to make African people to accept "voluntary slavery" options across the world, even in African soil. So..so... laughable when you hear that African rulers are signing Bilateral or Multilateral Trade Agreements. It should better be called LEASE AGREEMENT, where African lands are leased to them for extortion of minerals and human resources, simple!
