The three musketeers of Orania


Who are three jokers who voted for the ANC in the Afrikaner Never Neverland, Orania?

"Nooit, man!"

"Nooit, man!"

Lets not forget this odd little Northern Cape dorpie owned by a group of verkrampte Afrikaans families is not too welcoming to black folk so I doubt it was the domestic, the gardener and their gogo.

News24 has a fascinating little story (click here to read) that the election results from Orania show that the FF+ won 242 votes there (out of 279 votes cast). Three votes went ot the ANC. The DA got 26 votes, Cope and the ACDP each received three and two votes were spoilt.

This after  ANC Youth League president Julius Malema went on a charm offensive there a short while back. The rest of the country may think him a bit of a buffoon but clearly he impressed three people at the back of the kerk. There’s will be dark mutterings in the pub tonight.

If you’ve forgotten what goes on in this dusty town in the lullies, click here to see their website but if your Afrikaans isn’t up to scratch, here’s a News24 feature about Orania life from a few years back.
