Our democracy is frightening

We all know that South Africa is run by corrupt people. One can say much about the scandals that have been happening in our country that we are been fooled by our representatives. After reading and following cases that has been happening in our country since the beginning of the year up until now, I found that our government doesn’t do their work properly and they tend to fool us by portraying themselves as good fellow citizens who do their work accurately. Like for instance, if we can look at what Malema and his fellow colleagues did and/or that case of our former SAPS General (Bheki Cele), one can argue why didn’t they find them guilty and be sent to jail instead of dismissing them. One can argue that why are still continuing to select dishonest people to represent us and/or are we threatened by what happened to our parents back in the days.
Now the question is that why didn’t they let them to suffer for their consequences or is there anything that they don’t want us to discover?

It's difficult to believe that people are pocketing so much money, and have so much privilege, while the masses suffer in shacks. Now I tend to question myself what is democracy as I see no improvement in the lives of black poor majority especially those living in rural areas. We need to stand together and support one another but as I look as this, it doesn’t seem like we are united and showing Ubuntu.
We need to lead by an example to other countries as we are been known for our good deeds and be reckoned for our effective service delivery.
Let’s not disappoint our fore-fathers who fought for us to have democracy and let’s continue building what they started. Let’s be united and showcase our talents and our capabilities
