THERE IS NO POLITICAL PARTY CALLED SANC REGISTERED BY ANYONE ASSOCIATED WITH CHANGE IN THE ANC.

06 November 2012

It has come to our attention that there are people who are spreading rumours that those who advocate for change of leadership and policy direction in the ANC 53rd National Conference have a registered a political party called the South African National Congress (SANC). This pathetic rumour was started by one Mzwandile Masina, a reject of the ANC Youth League who currently works for the Gauteng Film Commission, where Zizi Kodwa works.

These people have for some time now been advocating for a breakaway political party because they are fully aware that their campaign to have Mr. Jacob Zuma re-elected as President is collapsing and being rejected by majority of branches in all provinces, including in KwaZulu Natal. These people are engaged in a disinformation campaign with the full assistance of the Guptas, Zuma's business partners' newspaper, called New Age.

These people think that that branches of the ANC will change their mind on the basis of a pathetic, sick and disgusting rumour that those who are advocating for change want to form a new political party. We place it on record that there is no political party registered to stand against the ANC, because the ANC will be saved from dictatorship, corruption, fraud, tribalism, mediocrity and manipulations at the 53rd National Conference in December 2012.

There is no need to form a new political party because the ANC will be rescued, and the entirety of its members and supporters unified in the struggle to attain all Freedom Charter objectives. Newspapers and other news channels should also be careful on how they process some information. The IEC has not published any Gazzette on formation of SANC, and yet Business Day and The Times write news reports as if there is such a Gazzette.

As for Mzwandile Masina, he will learn the hard way that disinformation campaigns do not work because our people are not fools. For his other activities, we will soon approch authorities and law enforcement agencies to bring to their attention violations of the law. We will forever expose stray elements and drowning men and women who are clinging on straws. No surrender! No retreat! ASIJIKI!
