Dear Mr President, today cannot be business as usual

Mr president, it is that time of the year again that you must address this nation on matters of life and death.Today you are again charged with the responsibility to drive this nation out of the economic quagmire in which it finds itself and put it on a new growth path.The noises you will hear outside parliament will not only be of those of your supporters but also of those of hundreds of South Africans frustrated by your leadership.
