Yes, definitely. The ongoing war strained South Africa economically and led to greater sanctions, necessitating eventually the need to pull out of Namibia and begin taking loans in 1983.
 
I'd argue the opposite, Savambi shows an african leader, can avoid tribalism, communism, or chaos. Perhaps A Buthelezi, style internal settlement seven years earlier.
