Sorry can I have my two seconds back, if don't mind, thank you. [Laughter.]. If got a lot to get through I don't want to loose my time, you know. Let me tell you this, we have shown where we govern that you can schools that work, that you can have a strong stable growing economy that gives everyone a stake. That you have a clean and accountable government, but all of these require courage and it requires resolve, and that's what, worries us Mr President. It's what keeps people awake from their dreams. The question on everybody's leaps is, Sir: Do you have the courage and do have the resolve? You going to need it buckets loads and you going to have to demonstrate it far more than what you have to date, because up against it.
The longer you fail to take the hard decisions, the harder it will become to do so. The more you delay the deep reforms, the further the economy will drift away. The longer you pander to the corrupt and rotten in your party, the more the doubts are going to pile up. Mr President heed this warning, your secretary general Ace Magashule, is like a vulture that has flown in fresh from picking dry carcass of the Free State. He is moving against you Mr President; he has deployed his minions in all their numbers, into key positions into this Parliament to provide a roadblock against your reforms and to weaken you up for the kill. Just like a vulture, he is perched at Luthuli House, waiting, just waiting for that first carrion whiff of weakness that will signal the kill.
Mr President, you don't have to believe me when I tell what the danger this man is to your agenda and what a danger he is to your organization. The next speaker, hon Mbalula had this to say; in the run up to your conference he said and I quote "Ace Magashule is definite no, no; he will finish what is remaining of our organization". [Applause.]
The longer you remain agnostic to the Magashule manoeuvring, and the more you tiptoe around Ace, calling him "My Boss" and telling us that "without him you are nothing" the harder you stamp on the dreams of our citizens. Thank you. [Applause.].
