Arthur Fraser's motive for laying charges against Ramaphosa is irrelevant. When Zuma questioned the

Fuck this: I’m voting EFF. I shouldn’t, but I will. And I encourage all those sitting on the fence - for good reason - to vote EFF too in 2024. I do this very much mindful of the irrationality of my decision.
It’s mine, I own it.
The EFF have used untruth and abuse to manufacture their chosen political currency: fear. But Julius Malema and Dali Mpofu’s campaign to eviscerate rule of law in South Africa – and destroy any hope of real accountability – is far more disturbing.
