Britain awakened Friday to its first day in more than 70 years without Queen Elizabeth II at its helm. This comes after the Queen peacefully passed away on Thursday. The coming days will see events to honor her life and guide the transition ahead.
The death of Queen Elizabeth will go down in the books of history as the most controversial ever! People are at liberty to say whatever they deem necessary about the Queen’s passing, no humanity whatsoever. When President Cyril Ramaphosa took to Twitter to send condolences on the Queen’s passing, all hell broke loose. Ramaphosa face huge criticism, with numerous South Africans accusing him of supporting Queen Elizabeth who according to them, was an enemy of the country. The daughter of former President, Jacob Zuma has also joined many people who are calling President Cyril Ramaphosa a sellout after he sent condolences to the Queen.
But other tweets called Duduzile to order and put her on her place by reminding her of what her father did. “At least Ramaphosa did not bend his head like your Dad! Your Dad even bends his head”, a Twitter user told Duduzile. The internet never forgets and Duduzile should remember that. Where does she gets the guts to accuse Ramaphosa of being a sellout when her own father was also a regular at the Queen’s palace. In 2010, Jacob Zuma stayed with the Queen during an official visit to Britain in the wake of a sex scandal which has shaken his premiership. The polygamist leader arrive in the UK with one of his wives for a stay which saw the couple hosted for several nights.
Duduzile’s hatred for Ramaphosa is quite extreme to a point where she forgets that her own father was once in the same position. Her father has taken more photos with Elizabeth than most people take with their cousins. Duduzile is being a hypocrite! How many times did Msholozi fly to London to meet Her Majesty? The first time, after Polokwane, he flew to London to tell the Queen, that “nothing was going to change”. We have not forgotten that. But like he reassured the Queen, nothing changed.
Meanwhile, EFF leader, Julius Malema has been accused of allegedly celebrating the Queen’s death. Minutes after Queen Elizabeth passed, Malema took to Twitter to post a very questionable. “God, good riddance; only one remains in SA”, Malema wrote.
People can say whatever they want about the Queen’s passing but we should remember that before any title she was human. She had 96 years surely that alone was grace! Even the young ones don’t live that long nowadays.
