Cde Lebohang and Sandile, in as much as your worries concerning the statement may be genuine, i suppose you must understand that there is deeper than this. You will be shocked to know that the "Story on Malama Millions" was crafted and leaked to the media by two senior SACP leaders and one senior YCL leader in Parliament on Thursday hours before The State of the Nation Address. So it is undoubtedly "a war", and that "war" is unfortunately centred around "ANC SG posisition". So, you should understand it within that context, that is "a war" and ANCYL appears to be ready for this war.
You are still going to see lot of dirty linen in the media, especially on the so called "high profile political lifestyle audit". Remember Journalist are human beings, who drinks and dines with us, so they tell us these things. Funky Maila >>> [email protected] 02/22/10 12:09 PM >>> Sandile I agree with you here, the Provincial Secretary of the ANCYL in Gauteng is missing an opportunity to present supporting facts. But equally what is unfortunate is this name calling thing on behalf of the leadership and structures of the ANCYL Gauteng. To refer to the GS of the Party as he did is totally out of order and very much unfortunate. I am just commenting on my personal capacity as a member of the ANCYL in Gauteng Province [who happens to be in good standing] that I am convinced that structures of the ANCYL in the Province will not agree with the insinuations made by its Secretary regarding Cdes Blade & Zwelinzima. Lastly I hope Cde Kupa will be alive to fact that when he releases an official statement it represents the ANCYL in Gauteng, which therefore suggests that it can't be based on personal views and emotions.

I read this statement three times trying to understand what is its message. There is absolutely nothing. It has not made anymore certain as to the validity of the allegations levelled against Cde President. This is the highest level of staunchism. Staunchists (fanatical supporters, who cannot and are not interested in fact and reason) like Kupa are feeding the frenzy by reducing to name calling and miss an opportunity to present supporting facts. What does Mr. R500000 and yellow communist mean? And so what if Cde President is from a poor family, does that give him carte blanch to plunder as he pleases. This is really shallow. ________________________________ From: Dominic Tweedie <[email protected]> Date: Mon, 22 Feb 2010 11:13:35 +0200 To: <[email protected]> Subject: [YCLSA Discussion] Fwd: ANC YL Media STATEMENT OF ANCYL GAUTENG PROVINCE ON THE VICIOUS ATTACK OF OUR PRESIDENT JULIUS MALEMA STATEMENT OF ANCYL GAUTENG PROVINCE ON THE VICIOUS ATTACK OF OUR PRESIDENT JULIUS MALEMA 21 February 2010 The Gauteng ANCYL wishes to express its outmost disgust on the recent media reports that seek to portray President Julius Malema as a corrupt individual as coined by yellow communist and embraced by white capitalist controlled sensational media. We reject this assertion and its association to our President, who by the way is not a public servant or any thing of that sort. We wish to state on record that President Malema is employed by the African National Congress (ANC). When masses of our people called on him to serve the state and its institutions; he requested the leadership collective to allow him to finish his task as President of the ANCYL. Unlike those who jumped into the bandwagon to serve that state irrespective of task given by their respective organizations. We are fully aware that they did so to build friendship with the media and imperialist to attack the moral standing of our President. We thought this tendency of using state apparatus and media to attack fellow comrades was defeated in Polokwane, little did we know that it continues raising its ugly head post Polokwane. We wish to take this opportunity to remind South Africans at large that President Malema is a political activist who is a child of working-class and poor family. His work for the poor is well known to everyone; therefore any attempt by forces that connives with capital to discredit him has never and will not succeed. We are very clear as Gauteng ANCYL that we currently in the congress mood, hence many comrades are attempting to deflect our attention from both policy (Nationalization) and leadership articulation and preference debate throughout our structures in the province and national. With regard to nationalization, the debate is on how it should happen not whether it will happen. We are taking this policy debate to our structures and eventually the ANC NGC later this year. Structures of the ANCYL in Gauteng and we believe the rest of the country are singing Fikile Mbalula for ANC Secretary General in 2012. This call is not made by President Malema, rather all structures of the organization. Those who wish to silence and deter us from mobilization young people who have already swelled the ranks of the ANC and postured in favour of generational mix leadership debate should not attempt to defocus us from this important task of the organization. Those deployed in government and not delivering the mandate of the ANC should not equally seek to use the state machinery to persecute one of our own (President Malema). Through our President we will continue challenging those who are inefficient, lazy and corrupt. Our campaign to fix the rotten Public Enterprise, Mining Departments and the over dominance of minorities in the economic cluster of the cabinet are issues we will continue raising sharply. We support the lifestyle audit of those in government, trade unions in particular Zwelinzima Vavi and Mr. R500, 000 plastic bag. We call upon independent auditors to check transactions and accumulation during the same period. President Malema like any other human being know people and for the record he does not dish out tenders as alleged by yellow communist and the white capitalist media. Any attempt to associate a success of a black child to corruption is malicious and unwarranted. We refuse to accept all nonsensical weekend publications and we will work tirelessly to inform our structure soon on the overall plot and battles ahead.
