Cape Town - My neck is hurting from looking over my shoulder.

Your comment, Lindiwe Sisulu, is one of the many lies told by government officials.

South Africa is, sorry to say, on the list of being one of the countries with the highest levels of crime – from molesting and raping girls and women to robberies, kidnappings, attacks on innocent people and, recently, buses.

Learners run around with guns in schools. Even police officers kill their whole family. Here comes Sisulu, saying: “South Africa is a peace loving country.”

Well, it’s not the first German tourist killed on holiday in SA. Even crimes committed by most of the government officials over the last 25-plus years, are swept under SA is among countries with the highest crime levels the carpet.

Zuma will take all his wrongdoings and lies to his grave. Cyril Ramaphosa is not telling the truth either. Police Minister Bheki Cele, overspending on his luxurious life with taxpayers’ money, shrugs his shoulders about the issue. I am German, 60-plus years in this once-beautiful country.

It’s not about one being tourist murdered, but how the rotten government is ruining this once-beautiful, safe country.
