thuli-madonsela

Chosen by an independent jury, the award winners reflect a nuanced view of Africa and encourage people to get more involved with the continent and its People.

BERLIN, Germany, November 24, 2016 – Foreign Minister Steinmeier issued the following statement today (23 November) on the awarding of the German Africa Award to Thulisile Madonsela:

“Thulisile Madonsela is being honoured today with the German Africa Foundation’s 2016 German Africa Award. This is a good choice and sends an important message!

In her role as Public Protector, she rendered outstanding services to democracy and the rule of law in South Africa for many years. But not only did she bring renown and prestige to the position, she always listened to people’s concerns, including and indeed especially as someone in the political spotlight. Her elegant modesty and calmness created trust and encouraged people. And she is certainly courageous. As the first woman in this position, she revealed what many people had suspected, gave a voice to the individual and was an advocate for the poor. This was not without conflict, but even death threats could not stop Ms Madonsela from fighting for what she believes in. She stood up boldly for what civil societies around the world rightfully demand, namely functioning democracies, the separation of powers, and reliable and trustworthy statehood.

Ms Madonsela is also renowned and admired for her work far beyond her own country. Today’s prize pays tribute to a courageous woman and puts the spotlight on what counts. My warmest congratulations!”

Background information:

Since 1993, the German Africa Foundation has awarded the German Africa Award to honour outstanding individuals for their long-standing endeavours to foster democracy, peace, human rights, art, culture, the social market economy and social concerns. Chosen by an independent jury, the award winners reflect a nuanced view of Africa and encourage people to get more involved with the continent and its people.

Since being awarded for the first time by former German Federal President Richard von Weizsäcker over 20 years ago, the prize has always been awarded by leading German politicians, including Federal Chancellor Angela Merkel and former Federal President Horst Köhler. From the beginning, it has been very highly regarded in both Germany and Africa, receiving wide coverage in the media. In 2015, Federal President Joachim Gauck awarded the German Africa Award to Nobel Peace Prize laureate Houcine Abassi of Tunisia.

This year’s prize has been awarded to lawyer Thulisile Madonsela for her role as Public Protector in South Africa. The award ceremony will take place today at the Allianz office at the Brandenburg Gate. The prize will be awarded by Norbert Lammert, President of the German Bundestag.

Thulisile Madonsela is being honoured for her exceptional endeavours to defend the constitution and for her work in fighting corruption in South Africa. She served as Public Protector until October 2016, working tirelessly to uphold the principles of the rule of law in South Africa. Thulisile Madonsela was the first woman in this position, which was established to investigate corruption and abuse of power in the administration and government. As Public Protector, she took on many difficult cases, for which she also achieved international renown.

EFF Statement on Zuma’s Question and Answer Session Today (23.11.2016)

Jacob+Zuma+March+17+2016

The EFF will not participate in the Question and Answer session in parliament today because we do not recognise Jacob Zuma as president of the Republic. Firstly, Jacob Zuma was found by the Constitutional court to have violated his oath of office, and thereby undermining the constitution in that he failed to uphold and protect it. Zuma failed to do this in relation to the processes of the upgrade of his private home in Nkandla where he unduly benefited from the abuse and misuse of state funds.

Secondly, the State of Capture report has also found that Jacob Zuma is continuing to violate the Code of Ethics in his business dealings with the Gupta family. As a matter of fact, Zuma has allowed the country to be led politically, by the Gupta family which South Africans did not vote for. It is beyond any doubt that Zuma is at the centre of a Gupta criminal syndicate and they have turned South Africa into a kleptocracy. Zuma is in the middle of rapacious and callous looting of State resources for his own benefits.

Zuma has recently admitted that he knows who else in stealing South Africa’s money through corruption and he has not reported it. Keeping silent on corruption makes one to be party to the corruption being committed, so Zuma has publicly admitted to a criminal offense and is therefore a criminal.

After the declaration from the highest court in the land that Zuma has violated the constitution, it is immoral to legitimase and normalise a fugitive by participating in a Question and Answer session. We refuse to normalise him, and reject the hypocrisy and failure of parliament to think Zuma can comply and answer about the country when he has been declared in the highest court in the land to be in violation of the law of the land. Zuma is a fugitive and the entire continuation with him in all sessions, whether symbolic or real, as if he is normal will not help change the situation.

The EFF’s non participation in the question session today must never be mistaken for cowardice. We are going to the ground to mobilize mechanisms on how we will protect South Africa’s parliament from a criminal. It must be very difficult for any criminal and thug to address South Africa’s Parliament.

RSA: Adv Madonsela must step back and allow processes to unfold (11.11.2016)

Jacob+Zuma+March+17+2016

The President urges all parties to act as guided by the Constitution and respect the processes that are unfolding in respect of the Report.

PRETORIA, South Africa, November 11, 2016 – The Presidency is concerned about continuing public statements by the former Public Protector Adv Thuli Madonsela on matters relating to President Jacob Zuma and the report entitled State of Capture.

Adv Madonsela has discharged her duties as the Public Protector and has no further role to play in the process regarding the said Report. Her unwarranted public attacks on the President, as happened in Stellenbosch on Thursday, are unbecoming and are not helpful. It would be prudent therefore, for the former Public Protector to step back and allow legal and constitutional processes to unfold unhindered.

The Presidency remains concerned as well by the leaking by Adv Madonsela to television channel ENCA, of her discussion with the President to the ENCA television channel. This conduct has serious implications with regards to ethics, confidentiality and the protection of information gathered during investigations by the Office of the Public Protector. It is also not clear why Adv Madonsela decided to leak only the audio recordings of the discussion with the President despite the fact that she had interviewed several witnesses.

The President urges all parties to act as guided by the Constitution and respect the processes that are unfolding in respect of the Report.

The ANC of today has forgotten who they are; while saving President Zuma for the second time!

national-assembly-rsa

The African National Congress has today finally lost their way, the National Assembly and the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa doesn’t’ matter to them. The ANC has decided to counter all of that as the No Confidence vote where happening today. 214 voted against it, 126 voted for it, 58 didn’t vote and one abstained.

This Vote of No Confidence came from the Democratic Alliance Member of Parliament Hon. John Steenhuisen, which we’re filed in on the 7th November 2016, so that today the National Assembly could vote in session on the 10th November 2016. Something at as suspected got silenced by the ANC.

So, today the ANC for the Second time has bailed out their President Jacob Zuma. Last time was after the revelation of the “Spy-tapes” and the 700 counts of Corruption on the current Executive of the Nation. Therefore the conducted result today wasn’t shocking; it was more the new-normal.

The ANC has forgotten its heritage, roots and why it exists. In June 25-26 in 1955 Kliptown, Johannesburg, the ANC made the Freedom Charter which stated:

“We, the People of South Africa, declare for all our country and the world to know; that South Africa belongs to all who live in it, black and white,  and that no government can justly claim authority unless it based on the will of all people; that our people have been robbed of their birthright to land, liberty and peace by a form of government founded on injustice and inequality; that our country will never be prosperous  or free until all of people live in brotherhood , enjoying equal rights and opportunities; that only a democratic state, based on the will of all people, can secure to all birthright without distinction of colour, race, sex or belief; And therefore we, the People of South Africa, black and white together – equals, countrymen and brothers – adopt this Freedom Charter. And we pledge ourselves to strive together sparing neither strength nor courage, until the democratic change here set out have been won”.

“All shall be Equal before the Law No one shall be imprisoned; deported or restricted without a fair trial; No one shall be condemned by the order of any Government official; The courts shall be representative of all the people; Imprisonment shall be only for serious crimes against the people, and shall aim at re-education, not vengeance;  The police force and army shall be open to all on all equal basis and shall be helpers and protectors of the people; All laws which discriminate on grounds of race, colour or belief shall be replaced”.

odell_otu_img

This is the key aspects of the 1955 Freedom Charter, that is key document for the ANC, which is the liberation movement, spurred political party that been running the government since the end of Apartheid in April 1994 when Nelson Mandela became the first post-Apartheid President voted by the people and for the people with majority, not for the white minority.

So today, we’re the clock turned back and the majority, the people didn’t matter and again the Freedom Charter been stepped on by the current ANC leadership and the current President Zuma. The ANC doesn’t care about the value of their history or heritage as the one thing matters that are that Zuma stays in power and the ANC elite eats. President Zuma uses the ANC party as a tool to gain coins and riches… to get the wealth without caring about the laws and legislation that it effects. The People are paying the taxes and the ANC elites are eating of the plate delivered by them without care or consideration of the implication.

The ANC are now a skeleton of the historical party that regain the democratic state and prosperous nation that South Africa could be. It’s now a fallen relic of the past, it is still a viable party, but the heritage and the legacy of what it has done now has tarnished and is not the current party. The ANC isn’t the ANC of the past, by all means the same people are not there and that wouldn’t be possible. The ANC Veterans, ANC Stalwarts and the ones deceased will always be remembered for their work.

ANC’s Zuma are corrupted and only their power, not for the people or for the greater good. The Freedom Charter of 1955 is only pieces of paper towards the ones leading the party today. So with this knowledge at hand, the dreams of ANC and the ones while being prosecuted, detained, arrested and killed for their belief in just society on good governance values. Instead the ANC became cronies who let them eat together with investors instead of building the nation.

Each step of the way, they have now under the Second Term of President Zuma forgotten their history, their will to change and instead bought into the enigma of ruling party without consequence for their actions. They are showing now to the world that the proud liberation party is now a front for corruption, embezzlement and disregard for its own laws and constitution. This to save the face of the Third President since 1994; even President Thabo Mbeki entered and eaten, therefore left the gates open for Zuma and his fellow comrades to eat.

“As more evidence is revealed it has become clear that despite Mbeki and the ANC claims of no corruption in the arms deal, evidence has revealed corruption right through to the top of the ANC. Feinstein argues that in the end the Presidency was responsible for ending any investigation and pressuring the auditor-general to change the report critiquing the deal. The presidency was also involved in smothering all investigations by the national director of public prosecutions because of the ANC’s possible acceptance of bribes to fund its election campaign” (Chad Ellis Klippenstein – ‘LEADERSHIP AND THE ANC: THE THABO MBEKI ERA IN SOUTH AFRICA’ June 2009).

statecapture-cover

Just like the Presidency under Zuma undermined the Hlaudi Motsoeneng report ‘State of Capture’ No.6. of October 2016. That we’re telling of the evidence put forward and collected while being the Public Protector in South Africa under the Zuma Administration. Hence, therefore the Zuma suspended the release of the report. To silence the critics and evidence of the connection between the government of South Africa and one family who has invested heavy in different parts of industry; these being all from energy industry to the other businesses their currently involved in the great nation.

So the Republic is now is a shallow shell of what they old-ANC wanted, the ANC Veterans and ANC Stalwarts maybe wants it to be; what the ANC ones wanted to be, but is not now. They are a ruling regime who has forgotten the past; they have forgotten their values and gotten greedy. They are not in the spirit as they fought for liberation or governance for the People of South Africa. African National Congress, could been a nobleman and a proud party, but what they are under Zuma is disgraceful to the legacy and history of South Africa. Also the party itself; President Zuma has forgotten where he came and now eats of plates that isn’t his and expect to get away because he is who he is.

Zuma, the one that eats of the other people’s plates without any consideration of their hunger or needs; that’s what is left behind… that is what is the ANC elite and ANC Government of our day. Not the ones who created it or the ones who wrote the Freedom Charter in 1955. Over a 100 years and counting, the party of ANC!

Zuma, the ANC and the National Assembly has forgotten their role, their place and their status as representatives of the people, they have forgotten why they are Members of Parliament; most of all the President has forgotten his place and role in society. Peace.

RSA: Eskom sets the record straight on its dealings with Glencore (06.11.2016)

eskom-gfx-5

Following failed attempts by Optimum to renegotiate and extend the coal supply agreement for the Hendrina Power Station at prices higher than the R150 per ton contractual agreement, Optimum later proposed a “compromise deal”. In terms of the proposed deal, the coal supply agreement to the Hendrina power station would be renegotiated at R300 per ton until 2018, and thereafter be extended to 2023 at R570 per ton.

In a letter dated 30 June 2015, Optimum said: “The base price for the first period and second period shall be escalated on each anniversary of the base date in accordance with a price adjustment factor which is to be calculated in accordance with an escalation table to be agreed between Eskom and Optimum.”

In another letter dated 17 September 2015, when Optimum was under business rescue, they proposed a price increase of R630 per ton and a coal supply agreement extension until 2023.

In that letter, the business rescue practitioners proposed a coal price increase of R443 per ton with effect from 1 October 2015 to 31 December 2018. Thereafter the price would increase to R630 per ton until 2023.

Eskom was not involved in the sale agreement between Glencore and Tegeta. All Eskom was interested in was to ensure that the new owners were aware that the coal prices, volumes and quality would not be renegotiated or compromised, and that the penalties imposed on Optimum would not be waivered. Nothing has changed since then even though Optimum Coal Mine is under new management.
