Developments in Tlokwe Municipality

The SACP in the North West is gravely concerned around developments in the Tlokwe municipality. The recent developments is an indication that this is not just the issue of low level of discipline but an attack on our revolution.

We therefore call upon all the revolutionary forces in the North West to do all in their power to reject an attempt by enemies of the peoples of South Africa, the working class in particular to steal their hard won freedom.

Members of the SACP in the province will work together with all alliance structures in the province to make sure that our revolutionary leader of the alliance, the ANC takes its rightful position in the municipality of Tlokwe today and in the coming national general elections in 2014.

Our members and the people voted the ANC into power and not individuals and therefore it is the ANC that must determine how, when and where to deploy its cadres according to capability. Any attempt by any ANC deployee to change this mandate constitutes an unforgivable crime towards this revolution that produced the world icons such as Nelson Mandela, Oliver Tambo, Joe Slovo, Chris Hani etc.

To this end we call upon the ANC to be decisive against these individuals for they have chosen to be against the will of the people and serve the master by amassing the crumbles that fall from the table with their tongues. They must be exposed for what they are and they must be isolated by members of our communities.
