Politics Or Politicians Quotes

“It is unfair, shameful, and an abuse of the system, the people, and power, a crime against humanity. A government that charges its people more or increases people's taxes, not to provide better services, but so that politicians can steal more and live luxurious lives without the stress of running out of money. They are not offering more services or improving anything. They are not helping more or giving more. Instead, they are taking more from the people so they can have more for themselves. These are crime syndicates in Parliament. They are not revolutionaries, they are simply opportunistic thieves.”

“If the media reports it and says it is a conspiracy. Then that is where you need to look and focus on. They are covering it up because they are also part of that conspiracy. The media is very good in distorting the truth and saying it is a conspiracy. The media is always the enemy of the people. It is never for the people. It is always against the people. It is a tool used by the rich to capture and control the masses.”

“Politicians are trying so hard to run away from having the same problems you are having. They don't want to spend money in fixing your problems. They are all about helping themselves not others. That is why they are distancing themselves from people who elected them. They are getting bodyguards, big fast cars, big houses, move out of the hood. High wall or fencing.”

“We gave people a chance and power to improve , change our lives and situation. All they did is use the power to bully and silent us. Changed their own lives and made our lives and situation worse. The mistake we did is to choose and believe in them. Now we must live with that. The mistake they did is to be evil, incompetent, useless , greedy, selfish, and corrupt. They must live with that. This happens when a nobody thinks money will make them somebody. We have our own worlds problem. They are the worlds own problems.”

“Your current life situation should be the one motivating you to go and register to vote. People should not push you or beg you to go and register to vote. If you are not happy the way things are. If you are not happy with loadshedding, corruption, service delivery. If you’re not happy with the level of crime, health system, unemployment. If you are not happy with politicians , biased Media, Foundations, NGO’s , NPO’s, NPA, Judiciary , laws, institutions, police, or president. Please do yourself a favor and register to vote and vote.  I know most if not all parties don’t inspire confidence. But it is better to take a chance on something than leaving things the way they are and allowing other people to have a say about the things that will change your life.”

“It is easy to control poor people and it is difficult to control rich people or people who can sustain themselves. Most government and entities they are trying to make people poorer , so it will be easy for them to bully and control those people. They want people to be dependent on them and to fear them. That is why almost every system .They put in place. It is not to enrich people, but it is taking more money away from people. Government will never give you financial freedom.”

“South Africa is not suffering from a lack of laws. It is suffering because those in power refuse to enforce them. Institutions, government officials, law officers, NGO, mainstream media, and commissions benefit from lawlessness. They create distractions with new laws, institutions, and commissions while they profit from the chaos. That is why real accountability never happens. There are no consequences or repercussions for those who break the law.”

“They exploit, disrespect, and sabotage Black people, then cry victim when held accountable. They never saw themselves as part of us until they needed support. Now they want the same people they betrayed to defend them. They should know and learn that accountability is not oppression.”

“I have a hunch that most of the money laundering or theft happens during state funerals or the creation of commissions or institutions. All these new laws and initiatives they introduced. All the things they do seem to be about stealing money and laundering funds. The intent is not to serve or help the public, but is to help themselves in government funds.”

“It is pointless and stupid to protest, if you don’t vote. The only way you can fight corruption, unemployment, equal and human rights . Making sure that you have a good future and good service delivery is through the poll. Make sure you register to vote and make sure that you vote. For a change to happen, it starts by you.”

“I don’t care who you support what political party you support or what you believe in. Do your business and hustle however, you see it fits. But don’t gaslight those who are doing right and fighting for what is right. Don’t promote racism, apartheid, division, hate, crime, corruption, lies, and wrong things because you are benefiting. Tomorrow all of us including yourself will be dead, sick, or suffering because of your influence and actions, you were too hungry, selfish, greedy, and stupid to see the truth.”

“Politicians aren’t solving your problems, they’re breaking you. That’s what they do. They make you accept defeat. They want you to accept crime, corruption, poverty, and suffering as normal. They’re not in the business of helping you. Their goal is to convince you that nothing can be done, and that you must accept it. Because if you don’t,if you fight for change and a better life, it threatens their stolen wealth and luxurious lifestyles. It would mean they’d have to work, to actually deliver services, and that’s too much for them. So instead, they overwhelm you. They break your spirit until you start asking, What’s the point? What’s the point of voting? Of fighting crime or corruption? Of trying to change anything? Of doing anything at all? When you’re broken, you stop caring who does what. And that’s when they win, because then, they can do whatever they want and get away with it.”

“Politicians often fail to hold one another accountable for crimes, treason, or corruption. Instead of reporting wrongdoing, they use it as leverage to blackmail others into compliance or support. When they themselves are eventually exposed or no longer benefitting, only then do they speak out. They show little regard for morality, legality, or justice. Many are complicit, lying under oath, aiding and abetting, obstructing justice, and protecting criminals within the government.”

“The reason many government employees perform poorly in their jobs is that they spend more time devising ways to steal public funds, creating fake businesses to win tenders, and siphoning money into offshore accounts, instead of focusing on how to improve their work and serve the public effectively.”

“When the head is the problem, the whole body suffers. If the president or the government is the problem, the whole country suffers. In the same way, when leadership, whether a president or a government, is flawed, the entire nation feels the impact. Strong leadership uplifts and builds, but weak leadership burdens everyone and destroys.”

“When you fight corruption, you are not just confronting an individual. You are challenging a cult. A group of shameless, heartless individuals who benefit from wrongdoing and breaking the law. They worship crime, power, status, money, recklessness, lawlessness, illegal, and criminal activities. Pathological liars who are deceptive and who see nothing wrong with breaking the law or even taking a life. They are willing to do whatever it takes to gain an advantage or benefit. Each one is guilty of something, so they protect one another.”

“Africa is often perceived as a testing ground for trials conducted by large pharmaceutical companies, wealthy individuals, and major corporations. These initiatives are sometimes presented as efforts to develop, improve, or assist African communities. However, when negative outcomes occur, such as fatalities, those responsible may deny accountability or involvement. One reason Africa is targeted for such trials is the perception that its leadership can be easily influenced through financial incentives. This raises concerns about corruption and a lack of ethical governance, where harmful actions may be permitted in exchange for personal gain.”

“In my country, speaking the truth can get you killed. Corruption leads to positions in Parliament and promotions to high-ranking roles in government. Crime makes people rich, untouchable, and places them above the law. Those who do the right thing are persecuted and assassinated by those in power, because every one of them is guilty of something. They protect and support each other to maintain their grip on power.”

“Politicians can literally burn the country to the ground and reduce it to ashes. They may collude with enemies or terrorists, enabling them and other criminals to break the law, if it means gaining votes or living a life of luxury. Many lack integrity and patriotism, showing loyalty only to corrupt activities that enrich them.”

“The sad truth is that most leaders, if not all, are choosing to trade people’s lives, safety, economy, freedom, and health for comfort and luxury. They are willing to let the people they lead, their own citizens, suffer and die, as long as they benefit. They turn a blind eye and ignore the consequences if it means receiving money or compensation.”

“People don’t care about the law, justice, morals, ethics, respect, right or wrong, rape, gender-based violence, assault, corruption, crime, fraud or human rights. They just want themselves and the people they love or like to get preference. To get away with everything wrong, not to be judged, and to be in power. They want people they don’t like or love to suffer, be persecuted, trialed, arrested, and to be removed from power. That is why they are biased and have double standards. Their concern has nothing to do with injustice but is just preference.”

“Literally everyday we must choose between being raped, assaulted , robbed, mugged, hijacked, scammed, abused, kidnapped, stabbed , killed, or do what we have to do to survive . All of this can go away or can continue. It all depends on which party you choose to vote for. Be careful of a party that only cares about votes and power and not about its people. It will do and say anything that includes putting you in harm’s way , cuddling with criminals, terrorists, and enemies. Most people choose to be of the problem not part of the solution by supporting corrupt and criminal parties and leaders because they hope to personally benefit in future.”

“In our country, it often appears that the government, officials, politicians, law enforcement, and institutions lack the will to effectively combat crime and corruption. This perception is fueled by concerns that some may be complicit or benefiting from these issues. Instead of supporting those who stand against crime and corruption, there are troubling instances where such individuals face resistance or harm, seemingly because they threaten vested interests.”

“The unrest that took place. Somehow, we need to talk about it and address it. We need to educated and discuss on what really happen. How it started. What caused it and what fuel it. If not , we are in danger ,because there are some people who benefited from it, and they are not looking at the damage caused by it. So, they will make sure that it happens again.”

“In my country, anything is possible, If you are a criminal, an illegal foreigner, or a politician. You can do whatever you want and can have all the money you want in the world. But if you are not one of them, you suffer and struggle for even the smallest things.”

“Suppose people in government or parliament don’t see anything wrong happening in the country. If they don’t see any wrongdoing, we have the wrong people in government. The solution is not to force them to act on what we see because they will be in denial. The solution is to remove them from government because they will be a wall and obstruction, an obstacle blocking us from achieving what we want. They will be a barrier, a stumbling block. They will block our opportunities, success, development, growth, potential, and freedom. They will be working against us behind the scenes. They are the enables of these wrongdoings that are happening.”

“When a government is led by greedy, selfish people, its problems never end or go away. They create situations or problems to justify using and stealing tax money. They manufacture emergencies that require financial solutions. They end up oppressing and killing people to profit and benefit. They are willing to commit treason, sabotage, tamper with or destroy infrastructure, and oppose any progress or movement. They are willing to kill people, ruin careers, jobs, and lives for personal gain. They are behind all the problems we face in the country.”

“Some black people lie to black people, humiliate and undermine them, mock and disrespect them, steal from and exploit them, sabotage and control them, abuse and oppress them. They don’t see themselves as equal to black people. But when they get caught and have to answer for their crimes, suddenly they claim they are being targeted because they are Black. They appeal to the very black poor and suffering people they betrayed for support. They were benefiting alone, but now want others to struggle and defend them for crimes they committed alone. They play the victim to mobilize support instead of facing the consequences of their actions.”
