The Gupta proxies are trapped in a corner. The biggest mistake we can make is to believe that their time is up. The reality is have the are not going to fight strongly and dirty. This is going to adversely affect the functioning of government as the ANC factions start turning on each other. Criminals and mudslingers are going to be brought into the fray. There could also be political assassinations. This might "force" the president to "flee" for his safety or an excuse could be created to declare a state of emergency.As ordinary South Africans we will hae to be vigilants in the next few months, or we could see things tha we never thought wuld happen in thiscountry.
