a slow decay

[techead]

JOHANNESBURG—Eighteen years ago, the African National Congress took control from a white-minority government that kept black South Africans down.

Now, ANC President Jacob Zuma leads a black-majority government that has left many black South Africans behind. Black households earn less compared with their white neighbors than they did when apartheid ended in 1994. The gap between rich and poor is wider than when Mr. Zuma took office three years ago. And Mr. Zuma faces mounting opposition as he maneuvers for another term.
