i have been thinking about what is happening at UFH. The politically motivated collision between children of the same native, the physical attacks that led to a few injuries though non-severe and many other occurrences frankly portrays how much black people have lost tolerance for each other, how few are real leaders who lead to the spark of the liberation of the masses not of them selves. The things that we have been reading about UFH on papers exhibit mainly the profound of the distraction the student politics, by aligning the student politics with the national politics, have brought to our institutions of higher learning.
in as much the other student organizations have an input on the issue at hand, their actions that can be, at some angles, viewed as contribution to the issue are justifiable. there is no act that is never justifiable as lifting a hand to someone. what SASCO did is and will always be unjustifiable. Nelson Mandela one said, i quote, "in the end, we must all remember that there is no amount of rules or their enforcement that will defeat those struggling with justice on their side".
i can describe the act of SASCO fighting for being in power whilst they failed students as cowardliness and being power hungry. the worst part is that they have have elders giving them moral support for these immoral acts. they, as the alliances of the ANC lost the meaning of the very democracy they claim to be their victory. the alliance of the DA was rightfully and democratically elected.
as people who are well informed and who value the democracy and the needs of the people, should show good leadership by respecting the decisions of the masses, and thus, that would show maturation of our democracy and diversity. they should further honor the activists who fell fighting for this democracy. they should go back to the constitution for what democracy means for diverse races and ethnic groups of South Africa and if that fails them, they can even consult a dictionary for the meaning of the word 'DEMOCRACY'.
