Political Analyst Professor Sethulego Matebesi says there is no need for a national dialogue<\/a> as South Africans have spoken on what needs to happen.<\/p>\n

This comes after several organisations called for South Africans to engage in a National Dialogue that will seek to change the direction of the country.<\/p>\n

Citizens are waiting anxiously for President Cyril Ramaphosa to announce his new Cabinet for the seventh administration.<\/p>\n

Matebesi says, \u201cThis is typical, typical South Africans where we want to bring another layer into what to be an issue and a matter that our leaders should have learned from the past. South Africans have spoken. Why do we need a national dialogue about what needs to happen? But now 30 years into democracy surely most leaders do understand what is their responsibility and what a privilege it is to lead South Africa.\u201d- Reporting by Diteboho Ntamane.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
