Comrades,when I joined the movement I ws taught to respect any product of a democratic outcome whether its in my favour or not. I was also taught to respect decisions taken by the top leadership whether they are favourable or not to me. It cant be correct that a person who calls himself a comrade would use this fourum to question the election of Majuju as president of ancyl. The nwc of the anc pronounced on this issue and as disciplined comrades, we must respect that. We must stop behavin like demagogues who allow their emotions to determine what comes out of the tongues. Julius is not the Ancyl. Ancyl is bigger than him. He is merely a face of the party by virtue of him being the President. So the position dat he communicated on nationalisations are a collective view. Let us not use this fourum to smuggle our opportunistic hatred 4 Majuju. I hope that the anc leadership wil intervene to put this matter to rest. We hav far more important issues to focus on
