Very Bold in did of cde Masondo,however the yCL thought it necessary to distance themselves to the statement which i think is unfourtunate,Views expressed by cde Masondo is a perception shared by many in the country most of whom are poor Some of this narrow Bee is not impressive as it goes to the connected nothing about the poor that we all wish to be representing one would have expected the Ycl to state their position in that regard/propose how they think.

Cde. VC Cde. David Masondo is a very bold leader who calls things by their correct name. He does not dilly-dally around a principle. This matter does not require internal debates - but frank talk. I am shocked that some in the YCL are so terrified that they want to single-out the National Chairperson in this manner. How many times has either the Secretary or Chairperson written or spoken on issues that are in the public domain (and of public interest and concern) without such statements being issued? What is the difference now? Why should the YCL pussyfoot around a clear matter case like this? This deal would never have gone to this current batch had it not been for their ties with the president. Cde. Masondo must be engaged constructively by comrades without being fed to the pride in the den by his own comrades. These views resonate with the masses of our people.

This is an extra ordinary decision by the YCLSA to denounce the action of one of our leaders in public, but since this has been done in public, we had no choice but to take this action in the interest of organisational cohesion and unity. The YCLSA has in the recent past expressed our discomfort in the manner in which the Arcelor Mittal BEE deal has been structured, and our general principled approach towards the role of politicians or their immediate families and business interests, and our opposition towards corruption and narrow BEE. We stand firmly on these views and will never retreat in consistently raising them in a manner that seeks to maintain the unity and cohesion of the alliance. However, we have emphasised the need to desist from public attacks on any leader of the Alliance in the manner in which Comrade Masondo has attacked the President of the ANC and of the republic, and will further take this engagement internally. What is more discomforting is the fact that Comrade Masondo has never canvassed these views internally within the YCLSA, but has now made them public in his capacity as the YCLSA National Chairperson. Whatever our views, whether wrong or right, there are set organisational processes to raise these views. There are already strained relations within the Alliance partners, and as a result, the YCLSA will play no further role in deepening these strained relations, but will seek to constructively towards building unity and cohesion of the Alliance. We call on all our members to exercise restraint and ensure that we use all organisational platforms to raise whatever issues that we deem burning before resorting to public pronouncements.
