@newslionsa: South Africa’s parliament is “useless”, blasts Floyd Shivambu who spent over ten years as an MP. He reckons you can count on one hand the number of laws it's initiated since 1994. And because the cabinet holds most of the power, parliament can’t meaningfully influence budgets or protect citizens. Even when MPs do agree on urgent interventions, party instructions can override their positions. Shivambu, who's the leader and founder of Mayibuye Afrika, now wants the political system overhauled. But will that happen? Critics point out he did nothing about it as an MP from 2014 to 2024. #FloydShivambu #SAParliament #MayibuyeAfrika #SouthAfricans #AfricaRising
