monna foloyd, this nationalization needs be a reality not a frontliner for some
bourgeuorisie agenda who knows what's gona be a profit to them should the
country mines be nationalized. we've seen how BEE came in and got packaged to
us as a nice program which was aimed in assisting and empowering the poor
peoples of our country but to our surprise only few tycoons and their
girlfriends have benefited some of them produced a red wine in the name of BEE
and where are they now/? "a re tlogeleng go patlamelana le bogongwana". this is
not what utata Mandela fought for. he {Madiba} stood for unity unlike what we
see in our politics today where a very senior leader will occupy a public
plartform and instead driving the agenda of the Orgarnization tabulated in our
manifesto , he/she insults our leadrship in front of the voters. people do this
because they're agents of this tycoons who stands to benefit should
nationalisation see the light, they're behaving in
this manner because their masters want to lead this organization take
ownership of country's resources and will give their loud mouthed agents some
royalties. just on record if that is the case we all want to benefit we can't
allow a situation where when people want to lobby our support for some narrow
selfish agendas which doesn't includes the interst of the organization use
FREEDOM CHARTER but once they aquire u just hear that they're builing rdp's all
across our provinces without considering the SHARING part in freedom charter.
some of them uses this Lembede which for some reason we thought the conference
resolved it must be sold, liquidated or whatever business term pule will tell.
history taught us that mob sychology is there and its pillars are only two
GOSSIP and Rumour mongering. it's a pity that people who claim to be good
leaders they fall trap to this thing and instead when hearing gossip and
nrumours provide leadership by consulting our
CONDUCT OF THE NEW CADRE, they become part of it and go all out to destroy
other leaders without wanting to engage on issues raised or seeking neccessary
interventions. that is a character of cope. Tata Tambo would want to unite the
movement at all costs not this yelling of insults which embarasses our
generation calling it an obsession of Peter Mokaba legacy, that is
misrepresentation cause cde Peter spent much of his time insulting the name
which was apartheid forces it's a pity he never had a chance to deploy anyone
to become HOD in any goverment for his selfish business interests. so is
Kalushi Solomon Mahlangu we forget about this people but we mostly mention them
when we campaign positions. i hope that oneday somebody would want instead of
just misusing our AIRTIME go to the place called Ga Botha in Mutse to see how's
in veteran Eprhaigm Mogale home you'll shocked. but mostly we say viva
ephraighm mogale viva! that's now when we lobby we need to
mislead cdes that we'll revive the revolutionary spirit of cde eph whereas we
just want to nationalize this mines so some tycoons benefit then few of us we
get some royalties. we know how was a build up to Polokwane CDES one tycoon
bought lot of cars and lot of money was running around the car boots we speak
of millions ive tasted part of it myself cause i was very poor then i could not
say no to money in bag. that tycoon needs be stopped he seems still interested
in the throne and he going to fail.....may i be suspended otherwise i wanna go
to cuba...

Oliver Tambo and the masses freed Nelson Mandela!
As the country marks the 20th anniversary of Nelson Mandela’s release from the
gallows of apartheid jails, we should pay an emphatic homage to Oliver Tambo
for his sterling role and contribution in rallying the masses and the
international community against the heinous and brutal system of apartheid
using Mandela’s as a pictogram of the struggle of the oppressed people of South
Africa.
Tambo was a revolutionary who spoke of yesterday and today – one of those giant
trees whose roots take hold and grow more and more as our nascent democracy
goes by. Tambo takes hold and grows unstoppably – not underneath, but over our
struggle for a better life for all – and he will grow every year and every day
in the minds of our people, our leaders and his organization the ANC, for his
revolutionary efforts so that we could be free.
We see him grow in the parades of our masses for which he loved dearly, the
recitals, popular songs and slogans, and solemn tributes at his monuments. The
connections are tangible between the ideas and actions of Tambo – the
revolutionary who fomented the people’s war and the ideas and actions of the
men and women who triggered the democratic breakthrough of 1994 which ushered
the ANC to the corridors of power and influence. They are all the thesis and
synthesis of the fact that when required by the situation, the people organize
and create the revolutionary vanguard to carry out their historic tasks.
Tambo’s concept of the need for the ANC to organize, fight, attack and lead the
revolutionary struggle serves as an inspiration for our ANC-led Alliance to
lead the Revolution and the building of a just and an equal society in our
country: the homeland of the man who thought and acted as a visionary, the man
whose ideas fertilized those of the generations who followed, the man who was
not a lone voice crying out in the wilderness, but the ideas and actions that
encountered multitudes.
There are three conceptual cores that intertwine the National Liberation
Movement as led by the ANC and the vanguard party – the SACP: the revolution as
a process that is guided and organized; the indispensable participation of the
masses in that process, and the threat posed by imperialism and global
capitalism to the future of the peoples of our country and the world.
Tambo’s love for his country, his struggle for its freedom, his ideas and
actions, and his infinite example are an enduring inspiration without any
foreseeable end; he is and will be a revolutionary for all time.
