There is one area of reform that is critical to the future trajectory of the country, its economy and the wellbeing of all who dwell in this lovely land. Reform is most urgently needed in the Jacob Zuma-blighted criminal justice administration in our nascent constitutional democracy, a new form of government for South Africa embraced by the majority of voters in 1994. The current criminal justice administration, by the admission of its leadership, has been hollowed out, compromised, filled with “saboteurs” and rendered dysfunctional due to the ravages of the Zuma-era State Capture project. The innards of that project are currently being revealed in detail and shock by the evidence meticulously presented before the State Capture Commission presided over by Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo.
