30 YEARS OF DEMOCRACY A DREAM BETRAYED!.

NOT YET UHURU!!!. 30 YEARS OF DEMOCRACY A DREAM BETRAYED!. It was exactly on this day the 27th of April in 1994 when millions of South Africans stood in long queues to cast their votes to usher in the  democratic dispensation . For the Afrikan majority who are the natives of this land it was for the first time that they had a right to elect their own government in their own land, as we know they had been excluded from this exercise by Colonialism\ Apartheid which had always maintained that Black people are subhuman . The day the 27th of April 1994 came or was a culmination of many and different types of struggles and negotiations. Thousands if not millions of Black people died and some were misplaced in the struggle for this right, the right to be able to determine who governs them, how they are governed , ect. However, as I will attempt to elucidate this point in the coming paragraphs our struggle was not merely about the right to vote but it was the struggle for total lib

THE ALOOF AND POMPOUS THABO MBEKI HASN'T HEALED FROM THE POLOKWANE HUMILATING DEFEAT!.

 THE ALOOF AND POMPOUS THABO MBEKI HASN'T HEALED FROM THE POLOKWANE HUMILATING DEFEAT! This week we have been bombarded with the news of the former state president Thabo Mbeki agreeing to campaign for the desperate African National Congress in the lead up to the 2024 National and Provincial Elections . South Africa is gearing up for the watershed elections which have been dubbed the most important elections since 1994. Some have even gone as far as terming this elections as their 1994. One of the reasons which made this elections so important and intense is because for the first time since 1994 the governing African National Congress is not guaranteed of a victory. There exists a real possibility of the African National Congress dropping below 50 % for the first time since the don of democracy in 1994. Majority if not all the polls are polling the African National Congress below 50 %. These polls were polling the African National Congress in the late to mid 40s before t

BLACK PEOPLE MUST REJECT THE CAPE INDEPENDECE MOVEMENT!

 BLACK PEOPLE MUST REJECT THE CAPE INDEPENCE MOVEMENT!. South Africa has been griped by the elections fever, as the country will be going to the National and Provincial Elections on the 29th of May 2024. This election comes at a point in time when the country is celebrating 30 years of Freedom. In the midst of all the hype caused by the elections, there is a movement which has been going on about its business silently, this movement calls itself the Cape Independence Movement. It is a movement established by the racists murderers who are beneficiaries of Colonialism \ Apartheid, these are the white people who are wealthy, not because of their hard work or intelligence. Instead their wealth is as a result of Colonialism\ Apartheid which dispossessed Black people of their land, cattle and therefore enslaved them. This group has been campaigning for the cessation of the Western Cape from the Republic of South Africa. Is it not ironic that settlers and invaders have the audacit

 THE DA,IFP,ACTION SA & PATRIOTIC ALLIANCE HATE BLACK PEOPLE!. Few days ago I watched an elections debate hosted by the Daily Maverick media house. Most of you would be aware that South Africa is heading to the National and Provincial Elections on the 29th May 2024, it is a watershed elections on many fronts as the country is celebrating 30 years of democracy this year. The debate in question was held with an intention to give the political parties in question namely the Democratic Alliance(DA) which is an official opposition as per the last National and Provincial elections held in 2019, the Inkatha Freedom Party(IFP), Action SA and the Patriotic Alliance(PA). These are the political parties which form part of the Moon Shot Pact(Multi Party Charter) which is a brainchild of the Democratic Alliance. In the said elections debate these political parties were asked a question pertaining to the crisis of unemployment in South Africa and how they intend to address this crisi

WHAT OF THE HUMAN RIGHTS DAY IN SOUTH AFRICA?.

 WHAT OF THE HUMAN RIGHTS DAY IN SOUTH AFRICA?. As we conclude this week and are about to conclude the month which has officially been termed or named the Human Rights Month, this name emanates from the Public Holiday known as Human Rights Day which is celebrated on the 21st of March . This Public Holiday is as old as the Democratic dispensation in South Africa. Prior to the 1994 democratic breakthrough this day was known as Sharpeville Day, it was named Sharpeville Day as it marked the commemoration of the Sharpeville Massacre which took place on the 21st of March in 1960. The Massacre was committed by the Apartheid government through its security forces(Police and other security forces). It was a protest known as a Pass Protest led by the Pan Africanist Congress of Azania(PAC) under the able leadership of Professor Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe. It was an Apartheid law that Afrikans had to carry their pass(Identity Books) with them wherever they went, failure to do so carried

THE DA HAS NO REGARD FOR SOUTH AFRICA'S SOVEREIGNTY

 THE DA HAS NO REGARD FOR SOUTH AFRICA'S SOVEREIGNTY!. In the past few days we were greeted by a letter written by the Democratic Alliance to the United States of America government essentially inviting the United States of America to interfere in the affairs of South Africa. For those who may not be familiar with the South Africa's political landscape, the Democratic Alliance(DA) is the official opposition in South Africa. It is an organisation which is led and controlled by Whites ,it is a political praxis of the ruling class in South Africa. In its ideological outlook and practice it is openly anti- Black and pro-White,pro -capitalist. One does not have to look far to get the evidence of what I am talking about when I say the Democratic Alliance is anti-Black, their opposition to progressive legislation such as the Affirmative Action, the Labour Relations Act,ect. We must keep in mind that all these laws I have mentioned above are laws enacted with th

IT IS TRAGIC HOW WE HAVE LOWERED THE STANDARDS OF LEADERSHIP!

 IT IS TRAGIC HOW WE HAVE LOWERED THE STANDARDS OF LEADERSHIP!. It is tragic how we have lowered the levels of leadership in our country and this pathetic low levels can be seen clearly at community level. The pathetic and mediocrity manifests itself at different sectors of our society. There was one a time when leadership was a preserve of those who display exceptional leadership qualities in leading the society in leading the efforts in seeking solutions to the problems and challenges ravaging society. It was this high standard(Political, ideological, intellectual and moral) which ensured that those who aspired to be leaders always made an effort to improve and develop themselves so as to fit the profile of what is a leader. Unfortunately by dropping the standards we have opened the gates for the lazy,corrupt who have always viewed leadership as an accumulation vehicle for themselves ,their families and friends, instead of it being a vehicle to make contributions in advan
