Trevor Manuel: 'Our leaders are out of touch with the people'

South Africa's former Finance Minister, Trevor Manuel says the country's leaders have become out of touch with the people and that has become a fundamental problem.

Manuel joined CapeTalk presenter, Clarence Ford in studio, reflecting on various issues, while also sharing his views on how to rectify the many problems South Africa faces.

Manuel added that governments failures to provide basic services is leading to people opting for private services, such as healthcare or education, and public services deteriorate further as a result.

This interview originally aired on 28 September 2023.
