White Man Corruption V.S Black Man Corruption - A black man lead Africa better #916136

About the Book
White Man Corruption V.S Black Man Corruption in South Africa (A Black Man will Always Lead Africa Better) is a monumental work that dissects the contrasting dynamics of corruption under apartheid’s white-led regime and the post-1994 ANC government, arguing that black leadership, despite flaws, offers a path toward equitable African progress.
Authored by Mutendwahothe Ramafamba, the book spans three chapters, blending historical analysis, economic data, and case studies to expose corruption’s role in perpetuating South Africa’s segregation and inequality.
Chapter 1 defines corruption—bribery, embezzlement, nepotism, fraud, and extortion—detailing its moral, economic (R500–750 billion annual GDP loss), and social harms (Gini 0.63, 33% unemployment). It contextualizes corruption through colonial land grabs, post-colonial tribalism, and apartheid’s legalized injustices, with global comparisons like Brazil’s Lava Jato.
Chapter 2 examines apartheid’s systemic corruption, including state-sanctioned killings (e.g., Sharpeville 1960, 69 dead), land theft (3.5 million displaced, R10 trillion lost), inflated white salaries (R2 billion/year), and judicial cover-ups (R300 million bribes). Each topic, enriched with eight examples (e.g., Muldergate scandal, R64 million), highlights legalized oppression, drawing parallels to Palestine’s settler colonialism.
Chapter 3  analyzes ANC-era corruption—tenders (R200 billion lost), VBS scandal (R2 billion), state capture (R500 billion, Zondo case)—noting its opportunistic nature versus apartheid’s genocidal design. Six examples per topic (e.g., SIU’s Pretoria ID fraud, R10 million) underscore governance failures.
The conclusion contrasts apartheid’s systemic harm with ANC’s democratic exposure, advocating wealth redistribution and accountability to end segregation. Drawing on TRC, Zondo, and sources like southafricanhistory.com, the book argues black leadership’s focus on redress offers hope for Africa’s future, despite challenges.
