‘… please don’t talk to anyone about our conversations … I have a colleague under 24-hour guard …He’s terrified. He has to take tranquilisers. I’m scared to put anything down on paper in case they see my name and come after me.’
‘If you expose most of these things, then the soil is ready for you.’
Journalist Greg Ardé exposes a deadly nexus of politics, crime and the taxi industry. The ANC’s cadre deployment has entwined the ruling party and the state. In KwaZulu-Natal, the party’s powerhouse province, IFPANC warfare has morphed into an internal ANC battle that has created a monster of competing patronage networks.
While leaders avert their gaze, comrades are killing each other for jobs and tenders. Corruption, failed policing and the izinkabi hitmen of the taxi industry loom large as the author investigates the battlefield that is KwaZulu-Natal, which threatens to spread across the country.
Travel with Ardé across KwaZulu-Natal into the dark heart of SA’s ‘culture of blood’.
