So our government officials have been found out for having "bought" the votes of unscrupulous FIFA officials, to secure the 2010 soccer world cup for South Africa...Talk about getting egg on your face - again.
Can you remember everyone hanging on the lips of Sepp Blatter when he slowly and tantalisingly, teasingly opened the envelope to reveal the winning bidder? Remember the huge cheer that went up when the nation realised that it was the “Repoeblik of Souss Affrika,” as Sepp put it, that won? We thought we were winners again, having already won a Rugby World Cup.
Turns out that we weren't - and we aren't. We're cheats and thieves...Well, our leaders are anyway, even if a select few of us aren't. Those self-same leaders have now also come out vehemently denying the charges, saying that they have clean audits, and that the "books" are open for review. What absolute rubbish! Do they expect that we'd believe it should be found in the ledger account called "Bribery and Corruption" had there (as a very outside possibility) been skulduggery involved? No - they have cooked those books so clean that Sepp himself could eat them, with not so much as an innocent little fart escaping his lumpy Germanic unmentionable.
The bid team were given bloody medals, people! - And Danny Jordaan who led them, - he of the "Blunt-Bladed-Shaving-Society" has been made mayor of P.E. no less. Fikile-the-Clueless, who incidentally has become as portly as my 5 year old bulldog, pompously announcing that there is no basis to the reports and these first world investigators should stop pointing fingers at this well intentioned and hardworking country. The thing is over anyway, ne?
Jacob Zuma, our Shower-Prez who left the country just before the Nkandla report was made public, will now probably say that Bribery as a concept is not a western thing, but that it only exists as a dirty word, and in the minds of the ill-intentioned amongst us. Soccer also is a Western thing, and that he will not deign to stoop to even think of replying to such trivialities. Tula - Keep quiet. Carry on sleeping, my herd of tax-paying sheep. Tomorrow you must go back to work, - for me and my large wives and my twenty children.
Incidentally, I just heard that he won’t have to pay back the money…
