Cde Nndwamato, The point I am registering has nothing to do with Cdes Blade and Zwelinzima as individuals, but everything to do with the respect and acknowledgement the office their occupy, in relation to the responsibilities given by respecting Congresses of both structures. I don't think it is required of comrades to be mordant when referring to each other, and also in my view it is the responsibility of every member, activist and leader within the broader MDM structures to protect each other.
Qabane fact the Cde General" is a Provincial Secretary, means in practice he articulates on the ANCYL positions within Gauteng and in my view it can't be correct to address comrades the way he did [irrespective if there are swearing @ the ANCYL or not] two wrongs can't make a correct. I agree with the attitude of Cde Kupa that of defending the President of the ANCYL, including every member in good standing. Wena you're correct to articulate on your Branch position, for then I choose to believe it was a resolve of your Branch Congress or a BGM which realized a quorum. The last think cadre rest assured I am an active member of the Congress Youth League, YCLSA & Party and not an on line members as you refer. I prefer to be developed through engagements and discussions [hence I subscribe to this forum] with other comrades, and refuse to label any comrade irrespective ukuthi we are holding opposing views about something. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Nndwamato Mutshidza Sent: Monday, February 22, 2010 12:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [YCLSA Discussion] Fwd: ANC YL Media STATEMENT OF ANCYL GAUTENG PROVINCE ON THE VICIOUS ATTACK OF OUR PRESIDENT JULIUS MALEMA Equally so, the Provincial secretary has a duty to defend the ANCYL and the ANCby those from within who behave like chameleon. It cannot be right for both the Party and COSATU to become a vanguard of insulting everyone. Our has never been about individual and as such we seek not to worship even Blade or Vavi. The moment we become silent of how for example Blade responded to the January 8 Statement presented by Preisdent Zuma on behalf of the NEC in his capacity as the General Secretary and go on to worship Zuma and not the ANC was problematic and you were fine with that. You see if we are to use the very same yard stick to measure who is responsible to say what we will never win? We kept quite because we understood the structures of the Party, we are also fine with the Press Release of Secretary Kupa because we understand the structures of the ANCYL. If you have an issue with our stance of Mbalula becoming Secretary General of the ANC in 2012, come convince us in the Provincial Conference of the ANCYL in May 2010. I can speak without any contradictions that my branch Mahlambandlopfu (ANCYL) has pronounce on this matter to guide both the Regional and Provincial Conference and we are in agreement with the statement by cde Kupa. Hence we are saying if you have an issue go to structure (especially as a member in good standing) and hoping that is not about the fact that you have a card and not participating, then you must revisit your understanding of how good you are? is it online members who in branches are not there. This pronouncement by Mahlambandlopfu was informed by reality of the epoch we are heading towards in 2012 and felt that the ANC belongs to all of us and no one will seat in the pseudo congress and resolve around how the ANC should operate. Hence it is important to revisit clause 6.4 of the SACP constitution. It is sad story for leaders to remain very much bias these days to protect their dark sides. In actual fact I am begging to see what Funky saw when the issue of the Black Bag Money was pondering, it might be true that the money was collected and people do not want to be honest. By the way why do people or cdes behave as if they are less ANC or more ANC than others. The fact that we choose to be members of the SACP does not make us better ANC members than those who are just only ANC members. This new vigour and energy, which COSATU and its drunk affiliates (SADTU, NUMSA) got is just another way to protect their spoit broers. When Blade all of sudden appointed Minister and there was change of life style, buying a new brand car was an acceptable issue in the Party of Kotane and under the disguise of Security concerns. Some of this nonesense are just unjustifiable period. By the way our ANC constitutions is very clear on who is our members. If they COSATU feel that they cannot be associated with ANC, that has rich people and business people then they must just go. What a hypocrisy, for COSATU to have issues with business cdes and itself its fully participating in the Investment business for whose interests? I do not think is for workers. Hence we have been saying this issue that in SA the RED Communist are very few most of them are Yellow Communist who just love the ideals of Communism and living a different live style. Cdes, like we said there is no SACP and COSATU in ANC structures but ANC cadres. If we are to follow the SACP Constitution 6.4, it states "Members active in fraternal organisations or in any sector of the mass movement have a duty to set an example of loyalty, hard work and zeal in the performance of their duties and shall be bound by the discipline and decisions of such organisations and movement. They shall not create or participate in SACP caucuses within such organisations and movements designed to influence either elections or policies. The advocacy of SACP policy on any question relating to the internal affairs of any such organisations or movements shall be by open public statements or at joint meetings between representatives of the SACP and such organisations or movements". If we are to use this as benchmark, it will then tell those noise markers that it is only through the ANC, wherein they must raise an issue and as ANC and not either be SACP or COSATU. Therefore, this call by COSATU and its Affiliates is very shy of the reality. When for example the State wanted money from Pension Fund to Bailout Companies to Stop Job Bloodbath, COSATU did not agree and today they cry that there had been a lot of job losses while they refuse to be part of the solution. By the way the money was to be loaned by the State and members were to get their money back. We should not be reduced to be ANC members without brains, we have brains and can be thinking tanks better than them. We are loyal ANC members, we do not loose at ANC/ANCYL and then goes to SACP/YCL to locate ourselves and start to think that we are equal partners. Anyone with a view that suggest that we are Tsotsi's is tsotsi himself or herself as Thiefs come in different forms. Cdes you silency on those that name call us assume that you are in agreement with them, meaning you are guilty of name calling too. Why when teh ANCYL do the same you feel the heat. By the way we have just emerge or are emerging from economic crisis, which the Party has never presented to Society its stand and alternative to resolve the challenges except noise making. When Capitalism was at its weakest, you find those pseudo communist mum on the aggressive path to push for a socialist path, it worrying and do not care who says what. This party has gone somewhere and if you challenge we are labelled. I am writing this as a victim of Party leadership for name calling me a Bolsheviks for raising my views that are out of sink with their own wish. the moment you refuse to be a reformist you are labelled. If you think you will attack the political leader of the ANCYL and we will keep quite, you are wrong because our defence of Juju-babe is a defence of the ANCYL.I always thought some Unionist have brains but to start to spit their bile about Malema's money & become silent on their members who terrorise our kids at school is worrying. If Malema has business interests,what the fuss all about? We are determined, no one will derail us on the 2012 Project. Why silence on Snr Party members who use their Spouse and Wives to gain from tenders? Lets be genuine on this fight. If its about name and shame, we can do more but the question is at whose interest? Lets talk. >>> "Tshabalala,Lebohang (GPDPR)" <[email protected]> 2010/02/22 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.
