SA withdrawal from ICC disturbing

For the first time, the country went to elections in 1994 to vote for their preferred government, bringing in the first black President Nelson Mandela who had spent 27 years in prison for fighting the Apartheid government.

South Africa’s decision to withdraw from the ICC has left many people surprised, especially those who place the country as SADC’s regional power. The surprise has not spared us either. We still cannot believe that the country that was once a dream for many has relegated to the league of countries like Gambia, Burundi and Uganda amongst others.
