SERVICE DELIVERY MEDIOCRITY

Sir,

I am usually not a pessimist and pride myself in my ability to see good in any situation. However, I couldn’t be more convinced that we are definitely not out of the woods yet as a country. In all honesty, what has been happening for the past few months made me realise that nothing positive or worthwhile is going to be achieved as we still have people who are either refusing to be accountable, shifting blame or pretending all is good and well. There is absolutely nothing that is reassuring. You can write a thesis on what you are expecting from government as well as leaders of this nation and nothing you mention could come to fruition.

Execution

Everything goes to show that we live in a country where people sell dreams instead of execution. This, therefore, makes it quite difficult to even assess or criticise anything said because all that is said is merely a façade and lacks depth anyway; most leaders just throw some words together and hope someone will be fooled enough to believe that what they are saying is true and will be beneficiary. The continuous talking and no action has characterised the leadership in this country for years now and true to the Bible; there is nothing new under the sun. All submissions and speeches lack innovation and depth and are just a mere recycle of previous ones. It is as though we are all just stuck in a hamster wheel.

Subjected

We are being subjected to mediocrity in terms of service delivery promises and we are just expected to lay by the wayside and accept whatever we are given. The poor taxpayer, who works so hard just to ensure a better life for people who barely make his or her life easier yet that should be their mandate. The citizenry is tired and are close to assuming an attitude of not caring. There neither is nothing promising nor is there anything to write home about concerning anything that happens in Parliament, all we witness are grown men and women making sure they at least have something to say in order for their monthly salary to be justified, other than that, there is zilch that we can expect, in all honesty.

If you may, do the honourable thing and breakdown each speech or submission but I cannot guarantee you anything to come out from that. The least you could do is write a think piece or have a debate on what is currently happening to ease your conscience, but trust me, you will gain absolutely nothing but the bare minimum from that. There is nothing to look forward to in terms of the leadership in this country my friend, do us all a favour and save your breath.
