File image: A person holds the South African flag
The Congress of Traditional Leaders of South Africa says they support President Cyril Ramaphosa’s decision to cancel the flag project. Arts and Culture Minister Nathi Mthethwa had initiated a project to erect a R22-million flag at the Freedom Park Heritage Site and Museum in Pretoria. Contralesa President , Chief Lameck Mokoena says the millions set aside for the project could be used to address problems that people are facing in the country.
“Contralesa welcomes the decision by the president to stop the infamous South African Flag Monument. Our people in KwaZulu Natal do not have shelter and food as we speak, roads in the country are in a bad state. We are being affected by load-shedding, load-reduction every day. The idea by the Minister to spend R22-million for this South African Flag Monument is uncalled for, irritating, ridiculous, insensitive, illogical and annoying. Let the money be used where it is needed most.
This is said to be a national project, but he never stopped it at first. Only after a national disagreement he said the thing must be stopped. He could have done that fro the beginning, he didn't see anything wrong. He is part of it.
Mthetwa was trying to defend the indefensible. There was no way the country will agree to such insane and corrupt project.
