Don’t divide ANC says Zuma – but he is also very bitter

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

[Take note that Zuma also says: “If I was treated fairly…” I heard part of Zuma”s speech and he spoke about how unfairly he was treated and that nobody ever came to discuss certain things with him. He does not elaborate on exactly what this unfair treatment was. But he has said this several times since Mbeki axed him. There can be no question that this man harbours a certain bitterness, and it will be interesting to see what he says as time goes by. He might just drop some bombshells.

As I reported yesterday, Mbeki and the Xhosa Cabal obviously “broke the Alliance rules” by not informing the rest of their allies about the axing of Zuma. This too, could have interesting repurcussions.

Some interesting things might develop out of this. I wonder if we won”t see Zuma and others breaking away from the ANC one day? Jan]

Nelspruit – Former deputy president Jacob Zuma has pleaded with the youth not to divide the African National Congress (ANC) by criticising President Thabo Mbeki for sacking him.

“Phansi ngo Mbeki. Phambili ngo Zuma,” (Down with Mbeki. Up with Zuma) the crowd chanted earlier as Zuma took a lap of honour around Nelspruit”s packed Matsulu Stadium during a youth day rally on Thursday.

“We must not be seen to be dividing the leadership of the ANC,” Zuma rebuked the youth in a departure from his prepared speech.

“In no way in the meetings of the ANC, we as the ANC, can sing badly about our president. There are channels in the movement.

“If we are not happy with whatever the ANC does, or its leadership (does), let us use these channels.

“If I was wrong as a leader I think the organisation has the right to call me to discuss the matter rather than to sing about the leader.

“I think that will be a recipe for disaster. We must maintain unity,” he said.

Zuma was implicated in corruption in the Durban High Court trial of his former financial adviser, Schabir Shaik by Judge Hilary Squires.

Shaik was found guilty on two counts of corruption and one of fraud.

Zuma has since been “released” from his duties as Deputy President and is also no longer an MP.

Zuma said the issue about his conduct and the National Prosecuting Authority was a question of constitutional rights that had to be accorded every South African citizen.

“There is no-one to be found guilty when he has not been taken to any institution or court.

“I have been extremely dealt with, unfairly, by my own democracy. I said I have been tried and convicted by the media and indeed convicted by a judge in absentia. It is extremely unfair,” he said.

“I”m clear as anything in my conscience that I have committed no crime.

“In the whole history of my participation in the ANC since I was a youth…(I have) handled most sensitive things and huge sums of money. Not a penny was ever lost.

“I was never corrupt and I will never be corrupt. If I was treated fairly by those who had suspicions, I would have explained to them properly five years ago,” he said adding that the authorities had not questioned him.

Heavily armed policemen and bodyguards surrounded Zuma as he walked around the stadium accompanied by Mpumalanga premier Thabang Makwetla and ANC Youth League president Fikile Mbalula.

Zuma was introduced to the crowd as the deputy president of the ANC.

“Viva Gedleyihlekisa. Viva,” the programme director said, referring to Zuma by his middle name, going on to chant: “Hundred percent Jacob Zuma. Hundred percent,” an ANCYL slogan coined in its campaign in support of Zuma.
