Cde Ndima, We welcome your so called criticism so to say, this simply means you believe that we can do more or even better than we are doing now.
However I am unable to make sense of whatever you are trying to say. First and foremost you do not know or realize how difficult it is to lead a structure like PAYCO. For your information, we sacrificed a lot for PAYCO to still be in existence to date, faced harassment that is untold to this date. We took leadership of PAYCO at a time when soothsayers and prophets of doom were writing its obituary and it was not fashionable to associate yourself with the structure, but due to the resoluteness of the current NEC the structure stood the test of time hence you are able to criticize us now. There is no way that you can criticize something that is non-existent. Maybe you were not following events in the party, you must remember that we took leadership and ran PAYCO during a very hostile time in the PAC. Parallel structures were formed to cause confusion because we were a big problem to the incumbent, but that did not discourage us as we are still standing strong and our resolution with regards to what is happening in the party is well known. If you did not know, we were the first to call a meeting with Letlapa and tell him right on his face to step down, hence the hostility towards PAYCO. As for Conference/Congress, it is not like calling a stokvel gathering...there are logistical issues to be sorted out first, unless you want to have a congress somewhere under a tree maybe in Joubert Park, yes you can achieve such just by a blink of an eye. Congress will sit and you will be able to judge us as per the resolutions taken in our Kimberly Congress (2009). We are not here to beat our own drum; history is there to absolve us. Just continue drinking beer comrade. We are always open for any kind of communication so that comrades can talk with information not some ill-informed criticisms and accusations. War against the enemy, peace amongst the Afrikans Umhlaba!!!
