NUMSA REMEMBERS A REVOLUTIONARY & INTELLECTUAL PARAGON JABULANI NOBLEMAN ‘MZALA' NXUMALO
February 22, 2012
TODAY, Wednesday 22 February 2012, marks the 21st anniversary of the tragic loss of one of the revered, admired, loved, outstanding and vociferous Marxist intellectual par excellence ever produced by the African National Congress (ANC) and South African Communist Party (SACP), Comrade Jabulani Nobleman‘Mzala' Nxumalo.
Comrade Mzala, as he was affectionally known in the ranks of the movement, was a sharp theoretician trained and schooled in revolutionary and scientific theory of Marxism-Leninism as espoused by the ANC-led Alliance.
We are remembering Cde Mzala, a paragon of political correctness in theory and action, amidst the launch of NUMSA's National Political Commission (NPC) as part of strengthening both our ideological and political education capacity as a revolutionary trade union in order to advance and deepen a Socialist orientated National Democratic Revolution (NDR) with the working class at the helm.
This launch of our own NPC is a best tribute and honour for Comrade Mzala, as part of producing a mass layer of activists or trade unionists grounded in the scientific and revolutionary theory of Marxism-Leninism. This NPC which will be replicated in all our Regions and Locals are going to be sites of robust ideological and political training of our Shopstewards and members as part of strengthening the ANC-led Alliance components to always be imbued with correct theory and analysis of our own peculiar revolution.
