Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Racist, Renaldo Gouws Ngamla, has reacted after his racial remark about reversed apartheid on whites as he said: ‘if Africa could dissappear from the face of the earth no one would notice’ in viral video.
The recent videos of Mr. Gouws circulating on social media, where he spews racial remarks against people of colour, are a stark reminder of how quickly we can regress if such behavior is left unchecked. South Africa, with its freshly adopted National Government of Unity, understands the importance of collective action towards common goals more than most.
To enable successful governance in a diverse democratic society, it is essential that all members of Parliament adhere to principles of respect, understanding and equality. The harmful and divisive discourse propagated by Mr Gouws not only stymies our progress but can potentially inspire others in the wrong direction.
For South Africa to continue its forward momentum and further establish its democratic values, it is crucial to nip such regressions in the bud. Therefore, the Parliament of South Africa must scrutinize the membership of individuals like Mr Renaldo Gouws whose actions cause division and discord.
