| book description |

Should Paul Mashatile be South Africa’s next president? Surviving scandal, controversy and the Zuma years, Paul Mashatile has risen through the ranks to the doorstep of the presidency. Over his political career spanning 30 years, he has successfully navigated the corruption and factionalism that the ANC has become known for. Now, he wants to take charge of the party – and the Union Buildings. The question is: Should he? Is this man suitable for the highest office? He has been associated with the ‘Alex Mafia’ for more than 30 years. What influence do they have over Mashatile? He leads a lavish lifestyle, living in luxury homes in Johannesburg and Cape Town. How were they acquired? He has been outspoken about the economy, Black Economic Empowerment, and South Africa’s foreign relations. But does he have firm principles? And how has his string of lovers affected his professional life? This meticulously researched account by bestselling author Pieter du Toit answers these vital questions and reveals the dark truth about the ANC’s crown prince.
