In her role as the Public Protector -
SA's corruption inspector -
Thuli Madonsela
was something quite stellar:
if she stands for high office, elect her!
Despite intimidation and threat,
she proved a tremendous asset:
she spoke truth to power,
caused grown men to cower
in a way we will never forget.
With bravery and with good humour,
she stood up to President Zuma.
To cries of "Amandla!"
she showed that Nkandla
was more than an EFF rumour.
At the close of a seven year chapter,
she bowed out to cheers of great rapture,
but right to the end
she had to defend
investigating State Capture.
So now at the end of her reign,
Thuli's legacy will remain.
Her's certainly will
be big shoes to fill,
but our loss is Stellenbosch's gain.
