Throughout its history – but particularly during the ’60s and ’70s, as Africa threw off the yoke of colonialism – the ANC has opposed tribalism and, in reality, out of all the liberation movements on the continent, ethnic mobilisation has been almost nonexistent in its ranks. In an especially forthright way at the SA Human Rights Commission hearings yesterday, President Cyril Ramaphosa dealt with the growing elephant of tribalism in the ANC room.
If the instigators hoped to use widespread poverty and anger to spark a national revolt, they badly misjudged popular sentiment.
