Our president is really affiliating himself to the Big Guy.
First Jacob Zuma conjured up a big old hornets' nest by saying the ANC would rule until Jesus comes. Now he has a new head of communications - none other than Vusi Mona, who was spokesperson for Rhema church leader Ray McCauley. Maybe JZ thinks that Mona has inside info on JC.
Mona was quoted as saying his new job "still gives me butterflies in my stomach". Maybe he knows something we don't.
Saffanisms (AKA buzzwords)
Saffa (n): South Africans. Usually used to describe expats (fondly)
Saffagette (n): A South African whose vote is reserved for Mzansi, the Motherland. A Saffagette is not an ostrich. A Saffagette has a vote and is determined to stand in a queue to cast it.
Saffavescence (n): Developed from saffervescence, which is a slang derivative of effervescence. Saffavescence means awesome, amazing - in a South African sense of course.
Saffaring (v): Being patriotic.
Suffaring (v): Having to listen to others not being patriotic.
At some stage it was City Press, then Rhema Church and now the Presidency. One wonders what's next for Mona!
ReplyDeleteOne wonders whether Mr Mona's moving up or down...
ReplyDeleteThis movement for Vusi Mona should be seen from all sides as a reward to what Mona did when he break the record by provoking the media rule of confidentiality during the comission while he was with City Press. It is that reward. No sings of character and great ambition to lead the coutry. This will led our coutry to the doldrums.
ReplyDeleteIt's ok Eric. Jesus is coming.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I am concerned, Mona will fit in nicely. Rhema: lie to the congregation, take their money, use the cash for self-enrichment. Government: lie to the residents, take their money, use the cash for self-enrichment.
