SACP Mpumalanga Provincial Working Committee Media Statement 05 August 2013 The SACP Mpumalanga Provincial Working Committee meeting held on the 05th August 2013 at Emalahleni has noted with dismay and disgust the latest SABC blacklisting coverage attempts to the South African Communist Party. Their coverage seems to have eyes where they decide not to cover our National Rally that was held in Tlokwe and continues to do that even in the province. We view their attitude as anti-communist and playing to the hands of those who seek to render the SACP useless, the coverage in SABC3 news where the working class don’t have interest of that channel won’t assist as they watch SABC2 and SABC1. The launching of the 24 hours news channel should start to focus on issues that are of working class interest. The SACP Mpumalanga would like to wish our revolutionary icon and the former chief commander of Umkhonto we Sizwe and political prisoner of conscious Dr Nelson Mandela a speedy recovery from his present illness and call upon all members of ANC to defend the legacy and credentials of this gallant member of the ANC not to be claimed by apartheid apologists and hooligans who want to lead a kleptocratic state. Let the PYA in Mpumalanga rise in defence of the ANC from those whom their quest for power is informed by political arrogance which can only serve to perpetuate the prevailing economic status quo and undermine the progress made by our revolutionary alliance led by the ANC. The SACP Mpumalanga is deeply concerned after the disbandment of ANC Nkangala REC whereby the ANC PEC appointed those who are facing disciplinary actions in the SACP to lead the RTT which shows disregard to alliance unity and cohesion. We believe this was a decision informed by those who are against a voice of dissent; there are those who want to turn the ANC into being their empire. The SACP will defend the ANC from internal and external forces who don’t care about the National Democratic Revolution but their selfish narrowed interest even to undermine the SACP. We will continue to campaign for the ANC as the only hope for the masses of our people. Those who want to reverse the gains the gallant liberation movement has done will never succeed. As part of election program, we will roll-out massive mass programs to ensure a 90% victory for the ANC in Mpumalanga. We will join the ANCWL National program which will be hosted by Harold Molobela District (Bohlabela Region) and make a call to our members to support the program on the 09th August. The SACP Mpumalanga will strengthen its international work by reviving FOCUS in the province further assist progressive forces in Swaziland through Swaziland Solidarity Network to continue with the fight against the oppressive monarchy.
