THE ANCYL DENOUNCES THE STATEMENT ISSUED BY MAGDELIN MOONSAY IN DEFENCE OF FLOYD SHIVAMBU

The ANCYL denounces and disown the statement issued in response to the ANC statement on the personal article of Floyd Shivambu attacks to Cril Ramaphosa. The article of Floyd Shivambu was written in his personal capacity and in no way represent the official position of the ANCYL. The ANCYL has directed all members of the NEC or its ordinary members that when they are engaged in public discourse should do so to advocate or defend ANCYL official position.

We therefore put it categorically that we distance ourselves from the statement that responded to the ANC as it does not represent the official position of the ANCYL but the views of the individual who published it. We agree with the ANC that the attack on Cril Ramaphosa personal integrity and standing in society was unwarranted did nothing to advance a comradely political debate.
