Comrade Xundu Sometime, a few years ago, I had occasion to meet you with another Africanist the late Mandla Konkie in Uitenhage on matters relating to the situation confronting the party, something that bears strong resemblance to what happens in the PAC today. You left the area with an undertaking to engage with us further on those matters, however that never happened. I believe, should u have kept to that undertaking, you would have known me better. In your claims of my apparent ignorance of the party including the developments you cite as having led to the formation of PAM, it's quite perplexing that you would dare want to discuss the party's most sensitive issues with the person you in your view has caused more harm that good to the PAC. Since you club me with and pursue unabashingly a kind of a bashing spree against even those closest to me in Azanyu leadership at the time, I intend, instead not to make this something about me as an individual, but to give you our analysis of the situation in that period which heralded the erroneous path taken by some in the party. As u know perfectly this plunged the party into its current morass. We were not demonised because of the allegations you make but because of the analysis we had made which made some elements then extermely uncomfortable. We also are very much alive to the reality that there has been a solemn pledge made at some quarters to never allow any of us a place within the ranks of the party even at branch levels. That programme is still being pursued up to this day. It does not disturb in any profound way. I do this generously, for I detect so much subjectivism, bigotry and obvious lack of analysis which we as the group you lampoon as "watchdogs" hope to respond to but without an intention of merely satisfying our egos but precisely for the sustenance of this debate to an even higher altitude. Rest assured, there'll be no name-calling or brandishments of valourity like you do with me here. We will as comradely with you as possible. Izwelethu! Mawande
