MK must be the 'eyes and ears of the ANC' - Maphatsoe
12 June 2017
Ekurhuleni – The ANC's Umkhonto weSizwe Military Veterans Association (MKMVA) wants the party to allow its members to guard both the party and the country's national key points.
This forms part of resolutions it reached at its three-day congress in Boksburg. New office bearers and national executive members were also elected, with Kebby Maphatsoe retaining his position as leader of the association.
He told journalists the conference's resolutions were mostly focused on security and radical economic transformation.
"In other countries when you go to the airport, you take out your belt and you take off [your] shoes. Here we are not doing it, it shows that we are not serious about our security," said Maphatsoe.
