Description

Unmasked: Why The ANC Failed To Govern by Khulu Mbatha is a thought-provoking and uncompromising reflection on the ANC’s 22 years in power. Mbatha examines how the party failed to uphold the values of the Freedom Charter, particularly its economic principles, and how the compromises made during Codesa shaped South Africa’s post-apartheid trajectory.

Blending political analysis with insider insight, Mbatha offers a candid critique of the ANC’s governance, highlighting where ideals gave way to political expediency. This book is essential for anyone seeking to understand the challenges of South Africa’s democratic transition and the shortcomings of its ruling party.
