Zizi Kodwa afraid to expose that the ANC has no jobs plan
11 January 2016
ANC National Spokesperson, Zizi Kodwa’s failure to accept our challenge to a debate on the economy and jobs on baseless grounds is nothing more than a desperate attempt to shield the party from its atrocious track record on stimulating the economy and job creation.
This comes after Mr Kodwa, in a New Age report, declined the DA’s challenge for a debate on the economy following the launch of our jobs campaign and the unveiling of our jobs-ticker last week in Johannesburg. Mr Kodwa’s response thereto represents a ruling party in sharp decline and a party that has been exposed for not having a plan to create jobs and economic growth.
Mr Kodwa contends that he would not accede to our debate challenge because he refuses to debate a party-political national spokesperson. This is extremely bizarre and I would like to take this opportunity to remind Mr Kodwa that he is in fact a national spokesperson.
His rationale is, quite simply, without basis and is a thinly veiled attempt to again sidestep the real issue at hand; which is economic growth and job creation that the ANC has failed dismally to address. Moreover that it has no plans to address this issue in the immediate and long term.
