A Silent Force: The Tactician Behind the Decline of Zuma’s RET Faction

A Silent Force: The Tactician Behind the Decline of Zuma’s RET Faction

In the often tumultuous world of South African politics, where loud accusations and public confrontations dominate the landscape, one figure has emerged as a quiet but powerful force.

While former President Jacob Zuma and his Radical Economic Transformation (RET) faction once held significant sway, their influence has gradually waned, not through noisy opposition, but through the strategic moves of an understated yet highly effective individual.

Rather than engaging in public showdowns with Zuma and his allies, this figure has employed a more subtle approach—one marked by careful strategy and quiet strength. Zuma, known for his resilience, and Ace Magashule, the former ANC Secretary-General now facing corruption charges, were not taken down by fiery rhetoric.

Instead, they encountered a calm tactician who worked behind the scenes, dismantling their power without fanfare. This individual’s ability to navigate complex political waters while maintaining a composed and unshaken demeanor has set him apart from the more confrontational players.

Unlike Zuma, who has long been dogged by allegations of corruption and political interference, and Magashule, recently suspended from the ANC, this man’s actions have remained largely within legal boundaries.

His methods are quiet but decisive, his reach extensive though often unpublicized. His calm smile in the face of adversity has become a signature style—strikingly different from the public feuds that characterize much of the political arena.

It is said that, unlike Zuma, often referred to as the “thief from Nkandla,” this man does not air his grievances in public but operates within the established channels of power to achieve his goals. His behind-the-scenes approach, while less visible, has proven to be highly effective. As Zuma’s legal troubles mount and the RET faction struggles to stay relevant, the influence of this quiet operator continues to grow.

This man’s success serves as a reminder that, in a political arena often dominated by noise and spectacle, silence can sometimes wield the most power. As South Africans observe the ongoing political saga, one thing is clear: his influence is not to be underestimated, and his quiet, calculated approach offers a new model for countering entrenched political forces.
