Lembede was articulating the history of modern time.
He further asserts: “Some alien subjects become dupes of this sinister propaganda and consequently become instruments of imperialism for which great service they are highly praised, extolled and eulogised by imperialistic power and showered by such epithets as ‘cultured’, ‘liberal’, ‘progressive’ and ‘broad-minded’.”
At the 1946 youth conference he said: “Africa is a black man’s country. Africans are the natives of Africa and they have inhabited Africa, their motherland from the time immemorial; Africa belongs to them, Africans are one.”
He cautioned that “the leader of Africans must come from African loins”, obviously not from the DA.
Confirming my assertions, according to Lembede, no foreigner can ever be a true and genuine leader of African people because no foreigner can truly interpret the African spirit, which is unique and peculiar to Africans only. Some foreigners who pose as African leaders must be categorically denounced and rejected.
As we are witnessing history unfolding in front of our eyes, it is difficult to debunk the emerging theory that a non-African in the form of the DA may assume political power in South Africa through political blackmail at gunpoint and in the disguise of a government of national unity (GNU).
This is facilitated by one of our own. He has a mandate, he is “progressive”, “cultured” and “broad-minded”. He is their friend, a Trojan horse of the imperialists, a committed slave, a sell-out and the enemy of African people because as [former ANC president] Oliver Tambo said on May 2 1984 in Tanzania: “The enemy has won a point, has gained a very important position, a position none of us thought the enemy would get quite so easily and quickly”.
He said that at Solomon Mahlangu College, named after one of our own who was sentenced to death by [former DA leader] Tony Leon’s father. The same Leon who is today leading talks to facilitate a political deal for a GNU.
I wonder what goes through the minds Mahlangu’s family members when they see “modern history” unfolding at the expense of their son’s vocal blood?
