Mr Kaunda's Speech at Madiba's Funeral

Many guests at the funeral of Nelson Mandela enjoyed the animated vote of thanks given by former Zambian president Kenneth Kaunda in Qunu on Sunday.
Loud laughter was heard when Kaunda referred to the apartheid-era National Party, led by FW De Klerk, as the "Boer" party.
As his address ran over time, ANC deputy president Cyril Ramaphosa walked up to the podium to signal to him to wrap up.
Kaunda got the audience giggling when he protested, saying people were "trying to control an old man who fought the Boers".
Ramaphosa shrugged and smiled.
Kaunda took the opportunity to remind the apartheid government of its shameful treatment of Mandela and his fellow men.
"I had a chance to meet a number of friends of the boer company. I spent three nights with [former Prime Minister John] Vorster on a train [stationed on the railway bridge over Victoria Falls, which separates Zambia and Zimbabwe]," Kaunda said.
"I asked the prime minister to please release Nelson Mandela and his colleagues and come together in discussions. It came to nothing."
"Then came another boer leader -- I think he was called [PW] Botha -- to discuss the future of South Africa together. I didn't succeed and it also came to nothing."
"Then came my meeting with FW de Klerk... and, after a few hours, I called a press conference where I said: 'I think I can do business with this man'. Thank goodness he released this great man."

Here is my view to the above article

People Like You Are the opposite Of What Madiba Stood For. You are a big ignorant racist that inherited a beautiful country, which was built by white regime and you with your actions have destroyed! It is now a third world country, like all the surrounding African countries that were run by the “racist whites and boers". Let’s mention a few. Mozambique- is a third world country. I have come across many black people that have said with conviction, they would rather go back to white rule as they had money, food and schools and hospitals to go to, now it is in a shambles, Zimbabwe was a beautiful country under Ian Smith and now??????? Zambia given to (Keneth Kaunda), Tanzania, Angola, Malawi, etc.,etc. they were all wonderful countries, rich in agriculture, mines, etc., now they are all THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES. They are full of criminals, fraudsters, liars, and self-seeking leaders. Majority of the PEOPLE that were looking forward to a Black Power Rule are still living in poor conditions and even worse than in the White Rule. Just look at Nkandla house, I mean village, built for a certain BOSS not Leader, yet most of the people around his house (village) do not even have water or electricity. I do not agree with the apartheid, but it should be run in conjunction with the white government. Unfortunately South Africa is going the same route. The government and schools are a total disgrace. The city centres are in an appalling state, the filth is indescribable. No pride for their own country, their own home. During the white government the schools (all schools) had books, desks, good teachers, and discipline. Now school books in KZN were not even delivered. The people that got the tender to deliver the books to schools, burnt them, yes burnt them, instead of delivering them, yet they got paid!!!!! Children stab other kids, they abuse and assault the teachers, I could go on and on.

 I don't like Donald Trump but agree 100% with his statement. Yes I agree USA has a lot of crime, but when they get caught they are punished and jailed accordingly, here in Africa excuses are made and they get away with murder, and it is not just a quote. If the LEADERS, which means exactly that, they are to lead by example, so if there is corruption in every area of the government, what is the signals they sending to the people under their leadership? In SA if they are a big shot and are given a jail sentence, all they have to do is buy ill health and you  get sent home!!!!! The moment the criminals get home their health is 100%?????? Send them back to jail or they must be restricted to their home with no freedom to lead a normal social life. I Know I am going to get a lot of abuse comments, but I do not care. The people that will jump down my throat are the same type of people I am mentioning, with NO sense of what is right and wrong.

No Words Needed!

No Wonder He Declared Zimbabwe Elections Fair. 

It is a nation racked by poverty, where 13 million people survive on less than £1 a day, and two million have no access to a toilet. 

Yet as his people struggle in squalor, South African president Jacob Zuma has sparked outrage by spending £17.5 million to upgrade his rural family home.  

Lavish works – which include the construction of 31 new houses, an underground bunker accessed by lifts and a helipad – will cost almost as much as the £19 million British taxpayers send to South Africa in annual aid.

Not quite right...South African president Jacob Zuma continues to have a lavish lifestyle despite many parts of his country struggling for survival

Originally the cost of the project, which began two years ago.

The costly upgrade to Zuma’s once-humble home in the village of Nkandla includes Astroturf sports fields and tennis courts, a gymnasium and state-of-the art security systems, including fingerprint-controlled access pads. 

And nearby roads have benefited from a further £40 million of improvements.

When African journalists revealed the astronomical cost of the work, Zuma’s ministers turned on the whistle-blowers, saying that revealing the details of ‘top secret’ documents was illegal.

Originally the cost of the project, which began two years ago, was put at £500,000 – but it has since skyrocketed. South African taxpayers are footing most of the bill, although Zuma, a polygamist with four wives and at least 20 children, is said to be contributing £700,000 of his own money – a stretch on his annual £185,000 salary.

 

However, he also receives a controversial £1.2million in ‘spousal support’ for his wives – despite recently calling on fellow politicians to tighten their belts – and pays only a peppercorn rent of £560 on the tribally owned plot in the Zululand hills where his mansion sits.

Zuma has named his residence a ‘national key point’ – a status invented by the previous paranoid apartheid government – which means it is entitled to security measures ‘in the interests of the nation’.

Bewildering: Work continues on Zuma's 'palace' as 31 buildings in his residence get given the go ahead

Last week he was grilled in parliament about what he and his family were costing the nation, and struggled to answer, protesting that he was unaware of the scale of the work. 

‘All the buildings and every room we use in that residence were built by ourselves as family and not by the government,’ he protested. He did not know the amount spent on bunkers, claiming: ‘I don't know the figures; that’s not my job.’

Under pressure, Zuma has been forced to agree to two investigations: one to probe the spiralling costs at Nkandla, the other to see if there was a breach of parliamentary spending rules.

‘Nkandlagate’ – as the state-owned media have been banned from calling it – is just the latest scandal to engulf the 70-year-old African National Congress leader. In 2004 he faced trial with his financial adviser Schabir Shaik over racketeering and corruption claims for accepting tens of thousands of pounds in bribes from European arms firms. 

Shaik was imprisoned for 15 years, but Zuma’s case was ‘discontinued’ after complicated legal wrangling – even though a judge said there was ‘overwhelming’ evidence of a corrupt relationship between the two men.The following year, a 31-year-old HIV-positive woman accused him of rape. Although he was acquitted, Zuma’s ludicrous claim that he took a shower after sex to prevent contracting HIV made him a laughing stock.

His personal life also came under scrutiny following the 2000 suicide of his first wife, who left a note describing ‘24 years of hell’ with him, and again after the illegitimate birth of another child in 2009. He accused the media of invading his privacy when revealing the scandal.

Meanwhile, South Africa is in an increasingly parlous state, having had its credit rating downgraded following industrial unrest. Workers at the Marikana platinum mine were mown down and killed by armed police last month when they dared to demand better pay. A truck-drivers’ strike later led to more deaths, and last week thousands of farm workers downed tools in protest at their £4.85 day-rate.

Yet Zuma – who glories in his nickname ‘100 per cent Zulu boy’ – still has substantial support among the people, bolstered by his freedom-fighter credentials, having spent ten years imprisoned on Robben Island alongside Nelson Mandela.

Britain is committed to spending an average of £19 million a year in aid on South Africa until 2015, mainly aimed at reducing HIV. But the Department for International Development is examining how it spends the UK’s aid budget, and recently announced plans to slash the controversial £280 million a year it sends to India.

S'Bu Mpisande "It Wouldn't Happen If We Were White"

February 10 2013 at 02:19pm 

By AGIZA HLONGWANE AND NATHI OLIFANT

I can not believe the audacity of you Mr S'bu Mpisane  stating the following

It Would Not Happen If  We Were WHITE

Our Week Of Hell

We Are Victims- Mpisanes

What planet are you from? It would not have happened if you and your wife had not been dishonest and especially against  SARS!!!! Your statement is absurd and a cop out for your wrong doings
Actually you are very lucky you are not white because if you were, you would be in jail  along time ago and the key thrown away.
Both of you are victims???? of what ????

 Please do expose any white couple that owns 62 cars and throw parties costing millions, yet can not pay SARS or explain how they got wealthy so quickly and from a profession that every one in South Africa knows are badly paid

 Please  do Explain how can someone come from being a Metro Police Officer to owing 62 , yes sixty-two (62) cars????!!!!!!!
I do not know of any white Metro Police that has become so wealthy as you have and so quickly. It has nothing to do to with the colour of your skin it has every thing to with your dishonesty and greed. Do share with us your secret  to becoming  as wealthy as you are, so we can all live happy lives.

You are a disgrace to your own race. You lapping life of luxury while around Durban  many of your own race are struggling to survive.

Why do you and your wife not provide the poor black South Africans with homes, and please good homes not down graded homes that are full of cracks only  months later.

I do not want to spend too much of my valuable time on two unworthy South Africans,  but let me splash some of  Newspapers Articles to prove it has nothing to do with skin pigmentation but to to with lack of  morals and greed.

It is stated in the Newspapers that " Naidoo told the court on Thursday that evidence before him suggested that one month before her May 2005 fraud conviction, Mpisane had submitted fraudulent documents, showing her propensity to commit further crimes. Mpisane received a wholly suspended sentence for the 2005 case after entering into a plea bargain". 
It has also been stated that the case against them was affecting their 12-year-old son

“It’s impacting badly on the kid. Every time he has to go to school, he sees all these guys from Sars and the Asset Forfeiture Unit at his home. These memories stay with you even as you grow up,” said S’bu.

 Well  you and your wife did not think of the "Kid" when you tried to the following - as per what I have read in the NewsPaper and quote'

"Durban - Convicted fraudster Shauwn Mpisane and her entourage breathed a loud, collective sigh of relief when she was granted R100 000 bail on Friday". Note says Convicted Fraudster not accused

Why was Shauwn Mpisane relieved she was granted bail  when she stated and quote " "So fed-up are they, that Shauwn says she would rather spend time in jail if it satisfied her detractors and got them off her back."

Howse said the two pending cases – one where she is facing 119 counts for allegedly defrauding Sars of R4.7m by inflating invoices and the other a suspected attempt to defeat the ends of justice – should not be used to refuse Mpisane bail.

Shauwn contends that her only conviction, for VAT fraud in 2005, arose out of an informal plea bargain with the state after she had failed to register as a taxpayer

One thing you must know, never, ever, ever try to defraud SARS, they will come after you and, so rightly so!

In addition to 53 charges of fraud, forgery, and uttering of a forged document, Shauwn is accused of submitting forged documents for higher Construction Industry Development Board gradings, used to win public works department tenders worth R140m. - Sunday Independent

Also let me point out cases at the moment featuring in the papers which are of non white pigmentation which are being investigated for fraud.

NEWS page 5 of Sunday Tribune: Former Head Of Housing Zandile Nyandu

Also same Page: Headline :SARS puts freeze on Malema, fridges and all. (quite hilarious SARS puts FREEZE  on his Fridge)

Again Same Page:Communications minister likely to get the boot over R6m Scandal !!!!

Do I need to say more?????!!!!!

So Mr Mpisande do not use the statement this would never happen if we were white? That is absurd  Does that also apply to all the above mentioned cases????

Do Take a look at the link bellow. It will give you an insight of some of  the cars seized, but thet still have a Mesarati and BMW

Luxury cars seized from ex cop: - his fleet of luxury vehicles among them. See the pictures.
