This will split the ANC for sure, but made lead to ethnic violence all around. The Afrikaaners are not the only whites in SA, but they are the most proud and exist in the countryside. They will be targeted much more than the 'English.' Much worse for all South Africans is Zuma's history with anything economic or financial. He has not only be shown to be incompetant with his own finances he is tight with all the wrong people when it comes to economic policy. It does not bode well for the best economy in Africa. They will get on for a while with the cash that natural resources bring, but it won't last. What had Mandela done more to protect his legacy, it is all but lost now.

The Mandela interlude lasted a long time but it could not last forever.Ian Smith just died. Just in time not to see South Africa become Zimbabwe writ large. The Afrikaaners will fight, but they are going to get ethnically cleansed off the face of the earth. Africa for Africans, meaning tyranny and poverty from here until the trump of doom.
