We, as gamers, have sat by and done nothing while hundreds of millions were spent upgrading President Zuma’s Nkandla homestead.<\/p>\n

We watched as others demanded the money be paid back, and sat idly by as some told the ANC how the money could have been put to better use<\/a>. Now it’s time our voice was heard.<\/p>\n

What could the\u00a0R246,631,303 spent on Nkandla have bought gamers?<\/p>\n

We have heard how many nurses could have been employed for a year, or how many schools the government could have built, but no one has asked the most important questions: How many PlayStation 4s could we have bought, how many ultimate gaming PCs could we have ordered, and how big could our home cinema\/gaming room have been?<\/p>\n

We have the answers, comrades, and they are all contained in this lovingly-crafted infographic below.<\/p>\n

It was hard work blowing all that money, and\u00a0we did not even spend a quarter of the\u00a0R246,631,303 allocated to us.<\/p>\n
