Land expropriation: we need to train more black farmers

01 March 2018, 08:49

Lets forget about Malema's real selfish reason for pushing this and address the issue.

Firstly, South Africa is not the first and only country where expropriation happened. It happened in the UK for example where the Scottish people lost their land to the English. This has never been given back to them and last year they voted not to govern their own country as it did not make economic sense.

In Africa where the citizens chose to do so and expropriate they have destroyed the counties - ZIM, Angola, Moz....

Lets accept that expropriating is not going to work. But, we must also accept if nothing is done to better the situation of poor people they will eventually do it even if it does not make sense.

So, Agri SA, TLU stop trying to tell the black people they can not farm and put structures in place to TRAIN and assist them. Stop wasting time telling the ANC what the law says. They know and they also know how to change it.

If you do not do this only you will be to blame when the majority of this country decide to expropriate.

After all it is easy to expropriate when most of the land belongs to whites. If more land belong to black people it is not going to be so easy to do so.
