whether we like it or not, MaJunju has raised the issue of the nationalisation of mines and for your information the ANChas formed a committee which is tasked with doing a research on the issue and the research will be tabled before the next ANC Policy Conference. So whether Julius has passed woodwork or not, is irrelevant and immaterial now simply because the ruling party is agreeing that indeed there is a need to nationalise mines. The only question is, how. Whether Julius struggled with woodwork or not, is irrelevant because he is the Youth League president and he will be the President again. Take it or leave it. Like it or not. It wont change.

Atleast they know they are not holy, now let them root it out. As for nationalisation, their position is clear. We all waiting for that investigation.But Juju did put the issue on the table & now it is a national issue. For that he has shown leadership, & no one can take it away from him.Even if you hate him.

'He could not say how much corruption within its ranks had cost the union.'

With regard to the above-said statement, i want to know who called the press conference when he can't provide the stats.

" South Africa is the only country in the world where affirmative action is in the favour of the majority who has complete political control. The fact that the political majority requires affirmative action to protect them against a 9% minority group is testament to a complete failure on their part to build their own wealth making structures, such that their only solution is to take it from others."
