Street Talk: Corruption - Is It Up to Us?  (Video)

We keep waiting for someone to do something about corruption in South Africa. The ruling party looks after the ruling party, and takes the resources out of South Africans' mouths. The abuse of power is evident. The question is - who's to blame? The government themselves? Or perhaps it's on us? The voters. "If the ANC does to us what the apartheid did to us, then we need to do what the ANC did to apartheid". - Nelson Mandela.
