M’Afrika Moloto, It is always interesting to hear from elder members of your caliber on PAYCO platform. As young cadres of the party I hope we are still going to learn a lot and we hope you are not going to mislead us one way or the other.
Your stance on party building seems to be cut in stone and it’s not open for the very same party members you are trying to unite engage on it and to me that amount to sheer arrogance. Your argument on the so called Alice Congress resembles the thinking of someone who is trying to bury his head in the sand and ignore clear party principles. You talk about PAC branches those who were in good standing? Maybe we do not have the same understanding of good standing as per the PAC constitution. From which constitution were those branches running their affairs from, since there was a rule by decree prior Alice? We all know that the constitution was suspended and there was a rule by decree which till to date is still not justified. I would like you to answer few questions here: 1. How can branches exist if there is no constitution? 2. The branches you are talking about are you talking about the man who was ruling by decree? 3. How do you submit amendments to the constitution if the party is a one man show (Rule by decree)? 4. How do you amend a suspended constitution? 5. You talk as head of party building; do we have such a position in the PAC constitution? I will be very glad if you can be able to clarify me on these issues. Logic will tell that you first reinstate the suspended constitution and then the party returns to constitutionality; it is then that you can allow branches to engage on sections of the constitution to be amended. Your attack on PAYCO is uncalled for, ridiculous and absurd, it clearly shows that you were observing events of the party from the sidelines. PAYCO remains the only organized component structure of the PAC. PAYCO is the only structure that reminds people that there is the PAC, in simple terms we are responsible for keeping the ship of the PAC afloat. As PAYCO we took a principled stance to support Letlapa Mphahlele’s candidacy and presidency, unless you want to deny this. PAYCO supported Letlapa's candidacy on the basis that as president, together with the leadership collective would tackle the ruling party and make the party more visible in the national political landscape. Because it is only when you are visible you can get the numbers in our country’s system of elections and governance. He agreed that he would adopt a combative approach towards the ruling party. PAYCO expected him to come with a revolutionary programme of action which would keep members of the party focused on mass struggles. PAYCO expected him to support all component structures of the party to effectively fulfill their roles in the party. To our amusement this was contrary!!! He was and still not prepared to speak against the ruling party till today. The last time we heard his voice it was when he was regretting the death of ET. He made factionalism in the party the order of the day. He pulled every trick in his book to refused and obstructed the NEC from coming up with programme of action, policy documents nor a single strategic document. Unless you can show us such. He never had anything to do with component structures, to him they were useless. PAYCO tried to be patient with him, we even arranged a meeting with him to let him know how we feel, but that did not yield any good results for the party. It was against this background that we withdraw our principled support for him and called on him to step down because it was then clear to us that we have been hoodwinked to support a candidate who was in a mission to cripple the party. I would like to agree with you we you say that “Gone are the days when individuals are picked from the street to lead the PAC structures.” Unless you forgot that Letlapa is one of them. The biggest lesson we learned with the Letlapa experience is that we must never again go and pick people from the street and allow them to lead the PAC again. In a revolutionary party like the PAC with genuine leadership, the centre must hold, if not everything falls apart and truly speaking the center is not holding at the moment and you know why. PAYCO firmly believes that it’s just a matter of time until members of the PAC returns be party to normality and the center holds. The days of people holding the party at ransom are really numbered. Izwe Lethu!!!
