“Wenzeni uZuma, Ngcuka phendula ngoba nguwe olawula ama Scorpions,” topped the charts as Cosatu delegates demonstrated their support for the country’s Deputy President Jacob Zuma. Translated into English the song’s lyrics read: “What did Zuma do? Ngcuka must give answers as head of Scorpions?” As the Congress entered its second day of deliberations, a relaxed and confident Deputy President entered the hall. Delegates immediately broke into song and for a moment the presence of the country’s second most important person overshadowed that of the President – His Excellency Thabo Mbeki.Addressing delegates the Deputy President spoke at length of the struggles of the working class and admitted that while the ANC supported a free, non-sexist and non-racial South Africa, Cosatu and the SACP adopted a more elastic goal in pursuit of socialism and communism. The Deputy President went on to encourage delegates to pursue the “dictatorship of the proletariat” until their goals are met.
