Youth in Action

A new era in South African politics is about to emerge. 2024 is our 1994,the generation of today has become fed up of the failing governce of the ruling party. The ANC have wasted 30 years of people’s hope after the apartheid regime. Four presidents have got opportunities to improve or change people’s lifestyle of living, but nothing was done.

Post 1994 the promises were impressive everyone had hope that ANC will improve their lifestyle. Nelson Mandela did not do much as he did not serve his full term, avoiding to be blamed. He wanted out the time people were still worshipping his name,as his the face of the white monopoly capitalist. An economist Thabo Mbeki continued Mandela’s term even after Govern Mbeki advised the Congress that his son mustn’t be appointed as president.

Western education for Mbeki was an advantage due to that he understood how the financial system works. Presidential course really helped him out to run the country, the economy was balanced, capitalists where there but silenced and humanity rights, regulations and laws were amended until civil citizens didn’t understand what was going on they wanted him out of office.

A liberation KwaZulu men took over the hot seat after Mbeki was forced to resign. Jacob Zuma a military guy whom was a side wing of the confounders of the Congress due to that he was ground force of the educated. TRIBALISM was in all forces when he was president due to that citizens were brainwashed that presidents can only come from Clever Xhosas or Mbondos which reside in Johannesburg.

All three were farm land boys, which got a opportunity to play with people’s mind set paint freedom meanwhile honestly in the back of their mind they knew white monopoly capitalists are drawing the agenda. As the struggle was continuing with less education Zuma brought back the white puppet which wasn’t elected as president after Mandela left office Cyril Ramaphosa.

His been a white puppet for years, hiding under the unions umbrella. Ramaphosa was the first prisoner to be released from Robin Island, established unions to represent workers knowing well he sit around the table with those oppressors. His term was the most difficult one due to that people’s mind set has opened up, they knew politics was a straight up propaganda.

Whites were jumping on top of his head, controlling his every move. He sold all the state owned enterprises,locked people in houses, imprisoned former president (Zuma), took world bank loans, appointed the Zulu king that wasn’t granted power by the royal family.

Alot of messed-up situations in South Africa so now the change is a must not negotiable, those millennium generations are open minded, history has been told but the time for change is now. They want to ruling party out of office but now still democracy and freedom is fairytale to them, all expectations of change are in their hands, as the youth is the biggest population of the country. 2024 is our 1994

South African still need jobs but Northen Africans are still labour brutally in their own land.I was in one of the business industry today for the whole day what i managed to see wasn’t something that i thought was still happen in our country as citizens of the diversity.Those Indian people still take our African people for advantage and they still think we have to obey and listen to their instructions no matter how painful and hard we are trying to not take them as foreigner.The African continent is for African where by we are divided with broaders and as well as currencies which makes us enemies to each other.Indians,Chinas and whites do not belong in our African soul because they are the one who make us divided.

The year 2020 some called it 20pently and now it seems as if alot of pently things are happening around the whole world.If we could go back not far away to the year which we coming from which is 2019 on that year all African people we fighting against each other calling it other names which indicated racism and violence.The question was “why was that happening”it all because of the monopoly capitalist which presented cheap Labour salaries to the Northen African citizens then it effected the normal payout of the south African citizens salaries.Alot of  blood poured on the streets,life lost,houses and people burnt into ashes all because of the hidden agenda that the capitalist had.We also same year tried to get our land back from them as the our it with buying but all those discussions are still on the drawing broad the time we were close to the verdict of the land coming back to us the introduced the biggest distraction ever that was going to change everything and put us into life liabilities and expenses.

Covid19 the virus which is killing people like it no one’s business.The virus began in China the country of manufacturing then it effected the whloe world and people get effected in numbers same with the death as well it comes in number.South Africa in the world it sitting on number five with deaths which has been done by the virus.In March 26 2020 it where all things changed for South Africa a regulation and law was introduced to save people from dying it was copied from other countries it was called #21 Days Lockdown which become more then that.Citizens had to stay indoors at the homes where essential service workers (DOCTORS,NURSES,SAPF,SADF,SECURITY)where outside putting their life at risk for no benefit at all.

The 21 days lockdown was over but the President of all counties choose to extend due to the death number they were keep on increasing,the weather also was an effect because it was winter season these virus was attacking as a flu that can not be controlled.Every day hundreds and thousands of people are dying in the world,the number a given to the public daily as is they are targeting to reach a certain amount.People started to becoming irritated by staying in doors and the movement was authorized by the permit like the old apartheid days where you need to produce a permit where ever you go.Things became worse then ever SADF we brutally abusing people and unnecessary arrests were conducted and the death number did not stop.

Then two months went by then the President once again introduced some other strategic plan which he thought it would after the 21 days lockdown has failed.The Covid19 level where by they where five levels to ease the lockdown and it came with it own rules and regulations citizens we band certain products and services but still no difference people were still dying let ants.Alot of life’s lost and jobs as well because companies had to close down they get up after the long close from the 21 days lockdown.

EVEN TODAY SOME PEOPLE ARE STILL LOCKED DOWN BECAUSE THEIR COMPANIES CLOSED DOWN THE PRESIDENT IS APPLYING FOR LOANS AND GIVING RELIEFS TO THOSE WHO ARE UNFORTUNATE BUT BEHIND THAT ALOT OF CORRUPTION FROM THE STATE OFFICIALS.AFTER THIS PANDEMIC ALOT WOULD NEED TO BE DISCUSSED BECAUSE ALOT IS HIDDEN FROM THE PEOPLE.

#COVID19 IS CHANGING FOR GOOD OR FOR BAD

The histrional powerful grid for power amoung the leaders of the country would be repeating itself once again.South Africa is on the 25th year after it got freedom but as the nation research has showed the few things has changed and alot has been put into individuals pocket for personal gain but the poor are still poor but when you look into yhe rich they extend their investment international.As South African we must be able stop the capitalism around our community and try to give come to the poor citizens at large.

On the 8th of may everyone was expecting change but the change was within the power of leadership,they went door to door trying to promise citizens that we will give change to all.On their side they have changed their percentage of people but have forgotten to go back to those citizens and tell them that you must not worry with that percentage change we would give this kind of change.

It was easy when they wanted the vote to go door to door now for the planning and decisions only the few will determine what decisions need to be taken.The capitalism make the poverty in our communities and the country at large,because why are citizens poor if they are rich in numbers when they going to vote.

Capitalism must stop and Poverty is not power.

Racism in Durban is still here for all these years i have been in different industries.Why always blacks are second in command and their views are considered as not important.

Alot has been said by the ward leadership and we believe the promises are made due to the election that is coming up.We current do not understanding what is happening on our ward which is ward 55 as the election is coming.We have had a protest where the citizens have been protesting againist lack of development in an area called EDikwe.

The leadership had promised alot and some of those things are things that will come to work in years to come maybe four to five years to come,but the election is just month and few weeks to come.One of things that they will point as development is a project where they have plcaed container toilets for citizens in area within ward 55 that still have informal houses instead of building houses for people.

So if people can be given clear understanding in ward 55 on waht is happening it would be better for all.On the on the 7 May 2014 we are voting once again,but as citizens we have not seen any thing that would unline that we celebrating 20 years of freedom in ward 55.

At the moment in area one they have started a project where there are rebuilding four room ubrban houses.But even there with that project things are not done right,citizens where not clearly informed about the project,unfair employment and grid of power once again from the leadership.So few meeting were held about the project and it was not clear on the selected house on how are there selected because if the say it a on going project that begun in 2008.Then to be employed also in the project you need to be a member of s ruling party or family/friend of the leadership.Then also the chairperson of a VCM becomes a CLO.

As the youth and some of the elders in the area dont see the use of voting.They are advised that together we can do more as they still need their vote but after voting they are advised ukuba sukumawenze (stand up and do it).So justice need to be done before people vote for a wrong things and get misleaded,because in the 20 years of freedom they are people who grew up known as children of informal settelment,they became uncels and anties of the same area and now they gram mothers and fathers of the informal settelment.It about time that we do not count the years of freedom it better we look into the change done.

South Africa last year hosted the fifth BRICS Summit from 26 to 27 March 2013 at the Durban International Convention Centre (ICC). This completed the first cycle of BRICS summits.

These summits are convened to seek common ground on areas of importance for these major economies. Talks represent spheres of political and entrepreneurial coordination, in which member countries have identified several business opportunities, economic complementarities and areas of cooperation.

BRICS is an acronym for the powerful grouping of the world’s leading emerging economies, namely Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. The first BRIC Summit took place in Yekateringburg, Russia, where the elected leaders of the four countries formally declared the membership of the BRIC economic bloc. South Africa joined the bloc in 2010, resulting in BRICS.

The BRICS mechanism aims to achieve peace that will give them power over country’s belonging, security to important information and those politicians, development the is construction employment for low working class and cooperation of taking orders from gridy and unlike nations. It also seeks to contribute significantly to the development of humanity and establish a more unequitable and unfair world for those countries who are not involved with the UN (ULIKED COUNTRIES).

World Aids days,HIV testing and BP at UKZN the people's space.

On the world Aids day in the people’s space was not too much,because omst people had their meet of planibg about the global day of action.It was meet in the meeting rooms but most people didn’t have the high agander based on the Aids day.It seens as if alot of citizen has lost interest when it come to Aids due to the COP17.T’he sick affect people must try and presure the government that if they have events or sumit they must told and get the inform if things are happen

CIVILS SCOEITY SPEAKING OUT THEIR VIEWS

 

Union group in a meeting.

Aids day also had some problem with some of the union ( )members who,arised the prblem in the meeting due to the undicent accommodation,over date food for their meals.In question whre do the leaders of the union also share these challenges with you,it shows that of the union leaders sleep in high hotels and the eat reasonable food.The union made problems to finish the meet proper,due the boycot that accured. The Northen Cape society of art has gather also to unpack the dissatifaction of the socieity,that is living around Africa.The companies that pollute are the problem.The Washinton DC in Un,part of the country that is on the east coast,the problem of the shifting of the time,that time is push to be later and later.They hope that South Africa can agree to the global funds.

The Global day of action was not the united within the civil soceity gather,alot waas misused the civil soceity group were like promoting one anonthers group to show which has the massive numbers unders their groups.The show the over all the is no justice,lack of solidarate from the civil soceity groups.Also the Mr Vavi presenting his speech but having guards on his side that protect his from by people while erpresenting the people.The civil soceity shall never be be heard properly if the laeders still have that regem uf misusung the people,moblising them then after fighth the battle of promoting the leaders,civil siceity groups and aslo have different missions to optain or to reach the vission of the civil siceity groups

With the peoples space at UKZN Howard coolege at the end of every meting that was held at he centre the most unexpected thing occurd the Democratic Left had the bigest oarty ever not really understanding that at the end of all thing the are people who are poor,unemployed,most of all effeted by he issue of climate change.The movement lacked the vission the that was the maun aim of the paoples space at the frist time.It was met to support the poor and those who where not able to come and feel it for theselve,but it seems as it ended up as a party that only occured for the Democratic Left leaders.The move of at that night the 5th of December a man on that night when the leaders where enjoying the party that man was busy expolated working on the nigth designing a one million climate jobs poster.The hard are the oppretion must come to an end from our leads,on o the leads opposed a statement where we see who is” in side the round that they have after the party and who is outside”.

At the civil society press presentation at Ethekwini City Hall which was including Mr Zuma,to make a presentation.The press presentation end badly,due to the City Officers who didn’t want the researchers and civil soceity groups to speak out the truth/veiws on how they see the government of South Africa. 

The Conference is done and over things has gone back to it normal the people are still in question of what was the uses of the COp17 if they don’tsee an thing that is supportive to them.The Global fund is a matter of questioning wheather fund would benfit the ground effected citizens or the grid government of South Africa.We have had it with the government and the United Nation,they misled us as people and the use their power.It about time we as people opened our eyes and see that the ruling party (ANC) that we believe in has lost it vission of supporting the poor instead the support their  families in the expense of the citizens.The next summit or conference that would be hosted in South Africa the reality is that it need to be occupied so the government would see that we have had it with him and his friends United Nation.
