I do not want democracy if it means that I wait in the streets for long periods of time in the sweltering heat in the name of VIP movement, when those who are plundering the country move in cavalcades protecting them from the wrath of their own countrymen.
I do not want democracy when those who earn an honest living go home to no water and unlimited loadshedding, while those who have risen to power using unjust and illegal means sit in the lap of luxury and never know how it feels to be without these basic amenities.
