Clover disinvestment sends a message to loyal ANC voters

The decision by Clover to close down its factory in Lichtenburg (the largest of its kind in the country) due to the collapse of municipal services sends an important message to loyal ANC voters.
The ANC-controlled Ditsobotla Local Municipality should’ve done everything in its power to address the water and power interruptions afflicting Clover’s business.
But the ANC doesn’t care – not about investment and jobs brought by companies like Clover, and not about the 330 people who will now lose their jobs.
