Aug 23, 2012 | Hlengiwe Nhlabathi Political Reporter | 451 comments

PUBLIC Protector Thuli Madonsela has spoken out strongly against the apartheid legacy being used to shield some of the government's failures, particularly the dire state of the country's education and appalling conditions under which some people live, 18 years after democracy.

Thuli Madonsela is one very strong lady with integrity and high morality - something her bosses do not like!
She'd better watch her back because she IS doing a good job, speaks out and isn't intimidated.
Can were get rid of the buffoons and put her in charge - things can only get better?!

I am no fan of affirmative actin, i always believed men r where they r because they eared it, I am totally against puting women at management positions just to fill the numbers, i always said women need to prove themselves first before getting intergral positions, like u cannot just make women mine engineers, u need someone who can cope in such enviro, and then here is Thuli, dont know how she got to be what she is but she is proving her worth day by day without compromise. If there were to be a women I would vote for a president of this country it will b this women.

our current electoral system is counter productive

if we followed the model of Switzerland where the people vote on all major issues affecting the country Zuma would not have been in power right now. Blaming collonialism/aprtheid is a tactic that has been tried and tested and working for liberation movements accross Africa.

Look at all post liberation countries. instead of taking from the past and improving our govts are hell bent on destroying what ever was built pre 94. instead of building sustanable communities our govt builds RDP houses meant as an insult to black people.

Instead of supporting the small businesses our govt is in bed with big business. Wake up people of Mzansi, this blame the past game is nothing new. its an African phenomenon. Our leaders do not give a damn about us.

We need to learn that in a democratic world you really donot need to luv the president or the candidate chosen by your party, what u need is some capable and responsible mjita who will make your issues his.

Well, in the last elections people were urged not to vote for Zuma. Due to corruption and whatever else. It was coined "Fight back". Unfortunately, the ANC threw its full weight behind Zuma, and turned the phrase into "Fight black". Therefore, your anti-Zuma sentiments are "Fight black".

Well if Thuli Madonsela says so it must be true, listen I'm still fairly young and wasn't around for far to long in the apartheid nation, but I believe this is true. There are plenty that could be blamed on apartheid, but some use it to sensationalize politically motivated events and speeches in the end it is almost 20 year from the end of it when will we look to the future for solutions rather then the bast for who to blame?

In a way you are right, the little that was left after apartheit was taken by politicians turned businessmen, but most of the country's resource and wealth is still in the hands of a few white people who also aquired thier wealth during apartheit, the ANC failed to negotiate a better deal after apartheit and the little that was left was engulfed by those guys you mensioned.

@Ndese1 supposing your accusation on Thuli being a DA member was true, is that illegal to be a DA member? or you are being a typical anc chauvinist out to control (trying) and curtail women's freedom to chose and associate? yhazi men like you and the rest like zumalema will definitely take SA and its hard won liberties back into the stone age, I read your president's primitive comments about women, and that its wrong to be single and that a woman should be married and produce babies, but then again he is doing his fair share of ensuring that women remain barefooted and chained firmly in the kitchen, it breaks my heart that SA has caveman for a leader,

Thuli is right most of the gov failures are due to corruption and incompetence of the cadres deployed that coupled with lack of vision and proper leadership, hence our country is regressing.

Maybe u looked too much into what i said about mistakes many of us made, well the us in this case doesnot include me, just fellow anc voters, i was against this from the begining, its just that i a man who likes his current position to be well defined. the country is in K@k, and we need to move away from it, we wont by just calling for the sacking of the president, we wont if we use the zoo voting in mangaung and anc goes on to win national elections, we loose stability as a country by calling for anarchy now and again

So if i sound anti Zuma that was not the purpose, my views here a driven by what i vieww as good for SA, u will say DA is better if i am really concerned bout the country, but i will tell u they will never bring the stability the anc has brought, so i still need the anc to give us another 10 yrs or so while we sort out our differences as races of SA, then I might start voting for other parties

Guys if she go's to a rally could it maybe be that she, being of that sex, wanted to hear what they have to say rather then join the opposition party? So paranoid over such a little thing. The fact that it was done by the DA should be irrelevant. Her duty is to protect our human rights regardless of colour and it seems she is truly moving towards transformation. I think she should be applauded for her efforts.

hence they need to recruit many peeople who have influence in their respective comunities if they realy dream of getting back in power and have a stable coutry to run. people r anc out there, so Da wining national elections will just cause us more harm than good, and this harm will be mostly to the millions in rurals and locations.

People must stop buuurning down schools and universities so you can be better. The government must deliver textbooks, and the teachers need to stop f***ing around.
========================================
Do u really mean we have to go and waste our time at the uneversities whilst you're taking matriculated kids and put them in learnership programmes for the work i'm studying in university then give them work and pay them peanuts,by then the graduates are running around with degrees,diplomas and ect?

Women must be free, we support that. You can attend all rallies of your choice, we don't care. You are not a public protector. It is diffferent with the the public protector. So many people think she supports DA now and she put herself in a questionable state.

its the problem i keep highlighting here about black people needing to feel before they act, well Thuli doesnot need to feel before doing her job, she thinks first, corruption? i will handle it this way, currently corruption is rife within the rulling party and that affects the nation, why should she be chasing Da, or Cope corruption? tax money is missused this side and u suggets Thuli starts investigation the other side? She is doing her job , not trying to save someones job or getting someone fired, she is doing here job the best way she knows

People like u compromise your profession to please others, thats not the case with this women, gov employees put their carrees on the line helping stupid tender people, now when they hear Thuli is coming they say its politically motivated, u failed to do your job and now u want those who take their seriouse to turn a blind eye?

Why is the concept of "hard work pays off" such a hard thing to understand by some? Economic freedom is not about the mines it's about bettering yourself and working hard.

@Nyongoyamavenda you are not airing views you are slandering Thuli for daring to exercise her right to chose and associate. This mentality is born from the fact that African males think they are sole custodians of decision making on behalf of women and children, that my friend does not bode well with our constitution as it stands, Thuli like every woman in our country has won liberties she enjoys, let her be, and deal with her when she fails to perform in her job, so far she is one of the very few gov officials who are professional and taking their responsibilities serious, you anc ppl attack her cause she has uncovered and exposed a lot of your crony willing and dealings at public expense,

Thuli had a preliminary report on DA corruption, Zille threatened her with court if she does not change that findings, to my surprise, she changed the report & cleared the DA, while we are still digesting that she attends a DA rally, how are we suppose to trust her independancy if Zille is remote controlling her. I have no problem with her doing her job on government to protect us but if she wants to be a party politician, she must resign & join the DA with pleasure. By being dragged into party politics she will neglect her duties, already, I don`t see her office looking at the justice system that sentences a b lack man to l ife for k illing a w hite person but when its the other way round they pay fines & walk scot f r e e.

The truth is always boring, ins't?

**No but rehashing what has been discussed umteen times is!

Yes, returning land to people and nationalisation of mine will create job opportunities for people.

** Let me ask you a hyperthetical question.

Say the land is 'returned' to the people - now stolen from the people who paid for it - who will work it to generate the food that is needed to feed the nation? Who will be the boss or manager overseeing and making things work? Who will pay for the upkeep and salaries?
Don't forget that farmers have a passion for the land and are prepared for the backbreaking work it takes to make a profit not to mention the education needed to farm properly.

Now the mines are given to the people - stolen from those who bought and invested in them and who are educated enough to run them.
Who will be the boss or manager or will it be a free-for-all with everyone being the boss?
Where does the finance come from to run the mines and do vital maintenance?
Where does the government get the taxes generated by the previous mineowners to help run the country?

How does thiswork in Lalaland where 'all' will be wealthy by grabbing what someone else created or will that get figured out some time in the future?

Lets be fair and deal with politicians who used land bank funds to piggy bank themselves and their families, cause its their corrupt actions which have set land reform progress back. But if you want to let them get away, then you shouldn't blame whites for your being landless.

Thuli is a comrade (ANC) appointed by comrade President Zuma. I like what she does & want her to do more but I would like her to keep a low profile and avoid media saint celebrity status and appeasing opposition. She will rue the day she say something against white people and it natural that day will come. That day came to Arch Tutu saying that white people must pay white tax. He was forced to retract that statement within 2 days. With white people you are good as long as you critisize blacks turn around and critisize whites, you will see their hostility at it best.

If you remember the previous protectors were not as good as her becoz they were cadres of the movement & were biased, now here is a woman who is independent even though appointed by the very same gov. Thuli made a mistake just like any other human & I will give her a benefit of the doubt but I`m watching her.

Our domestic(I know very apartheid, but she was unemployed and we created employment and she is very comfortable in her cranny flat why am I defending our domestic) son wanted to quit school because maths was "too hard". Now maths is a sticky wicket as is as teachers aren't trained how to teach kids properly, but I digress again, after a few lessons with me it went better, but he still wanted to quit school because he saw his friends making money with drugs and such. I took him to one of my lectures and day on campus and showed him what education is, I think people have a misconception that education is drab and boring, but all he,domestics son, wants to do now is study at UKZN. I think we need to open these kids eyes and show them what can be done with an education.

She is a civil servant, just as I am, and I don't recall any prohibition on civil servants having political or any other interests. In her post she does not "belong" to the ANC or any other party. She remains a citizen with the same rights as anyone else. It is pity that the ANC and its supporters feel so theatened as to object in such a petty manner.

==================
"she was apponited where she is by an african male" You make it sound as if she was being done a favour? Thuli is there on MERIT her record stands as a solid proof no need to defend her, THULI FOR PRESIDENT, lol

I disagree respectfully, as the protector of the public is it not her duty to be at as many of these things as possible to be able to critically asses the public she upholds to protect? Yes this will be turned into a inter-party fight simply because she said it at a DA event, but it still doesn't make the fact that what she says and less true? Only us here on Sowetan see this as a DA vs ANC problem whereas the rest of SA is debating what is said not where is has been said.

Our domestic(I know very apartheid, but she was unemployed and we created employment and she is very comfortable in her cranny flat why am I defending our domestic) son wanted to quit school because maths was "too hard". Now maths is a sticky wicket as is as teachers aren't trained how to teach kids properly, but I digress again, after a few lessons with me it went better, but he still wanted to quit school because he saw his friends making money with drugs and such. I took him to one of my lectures and day on campus and showed him what education is, I think people have a misconception that education is drab and boring, but all he,domestics son, wants to do now is study at UKZN. I think we need to open these kids eyes and show them what can be done with an education

-------------------------------------------

Brilliant!! Well done you!

I've also played a hand in helping various people (youngsters and adults) (all races) open their eyes to see what they can achieve if given a chance and there is nothing more rewarding in seeing a person 'grow' in their chosen area and go on to help others.

In the dictionary if you look for the word 'can't' it says "see can"

There is a guy here in Westville who is always dressed in a suit holding a sign saying "hungry for a job". I always just want to give him a job but have none to give, but this is the example or metaphor I want to ingrain into people, he is not begging for money or food, he will rather work for his money. There is something so empowering when you worked hard get your money and you feel you have accomplished something. We need more people like this man who is not hungry for cash but willing to work for it.

Thuli Madonsela has crossed over long time ago and she won't return, she's white inside and black outside. The ANC has lond suspected that but they don't have evidence that she has crossed over but by this statement she said well to me and other black brothers and sisters it's evidence she has crossed over. Don't blame apartheid , damn you girl. We'll blame booers and their apartheid forever , they'll never get away from this. I myself make sure that whenever I meet with young black people I feed them our horrible history of apartheid and how booers murdered our black people.

O yes it will take a few years before she can and I still think we need a new more inclusive political party that will stand for all SA and not a select few I fully agree that she is playing into the hands of unemployment with where she said this, but I still believe it is true. I do not think the DA or ANC should ever run the country, Both parties are not suited for the job and show their "war wounds" much to easily when things get tough. I hate those adverts from the ANC around election time showing degradation of the past, yes it exist, but we need a party who will not reference degradation but rather fix it.

Booers here have been calling me by many horrible names , Sinudeity even insulting me calling K word but I have grown thick skin over many years even before Sinudeity was born. This does not surprise me as blacks in this country have been humiliated , degraded and insulted over many years by booers even this day. I know who am I and I believe majority of our black people know who they're , we'll never cross over and pat booers on their shoulders for genocide of our people for such a long time. We'll blame you and your children will pay for your sins. Thuli Madonsela can go and join the entire white race if she wants to but not to tell us who we should blame for the apartheid. African Americans are still blaming slavery till this day and Jews are still blaming Germany till this day. Why us here in South Africa should n't blame apartheid that is still happening this day. We cannot bury our heads in the sand and pretend as if apartheid was destroyed in 1994 so we must forgive and forget. We normal thinking black people of South Africa will never forgive and will never forget , we'll continue teaching our children the filthyness of booers. Thuli has crossed over to her former master and apartheid agent DA.

I take my sisters bf for one his father was shot in the car in front of them in Dbn, then to add insult to injury their house burnt down 3 months later they had nothing, but through hard work this boy got to meet the only engineer on the South Coast who in the end paid for his undergrad his honors masters and to open his practice, so with the soul thing I agree, your attitude and perspective on life needs to change to get where you need.

I understand your point, but this is representation along racial lines and means that we will never have a party representing South Africans but rather a race and to a more fragmented degree a tribe.
It also rather sadly means that the minorities will have to be stuck with a party representing them only and since they are by this very definition in the minority will never have real input in the direction of the country, this will strengthen the divide.
I don't think your black panther analogy is good as the problem with this would not be his skin colour but rather his radical racist views. I don't believe the DA or ANC to be radically racist.

Besides the prescrits set by legislation for compensating the political parties, most of the money used to run a political organisation comes from the private sector(individuals or business). The reason why the private sector does this is to ensure they have greater pull when legislation is being drafted. Given this reason this makes me even more sceptical of the democratic alliance (DA), Inkatha Freedom Party(IFP), UDM etc etc etc. Amy party which has one voice and does not represent a collective interest is not getting my vote!!!

African Americans got their reparations for slavery and are respected very much all over the world for their stand. The Jews were and /or are still compensated and respected all over the world and for your information sake the Jews were even given a country called Israel for their suffering during first world war. You'll never find a Jew talking reconciliation , nation building and rainbow nation with a German never. They're open enemy. Black people too must know who their enemy is and start dealing with that enemy. A person who oppressed you and your generation and k ill your ancestors over many years, you turn around and say well your're my friend and my country man, how sick is that. As long as some of our black brothers and sisters smoke a peace pipe with booers , booers will always take an advantage of us and insult us as is happening now in this site. Booers children have a field day here and this happens every single day, they insult us , humiliate us, degrade us , rape and sodomise us right in front of the world and we're told not to blame these people by Thuli the sellout Madonsela.

I can understand that, but whom to vote for then? Does any party satisfy the needs of all at all times? Like I said maybe it is time for a new entrant who would actually listen to the masses and not their own pockets? You have to love this country.
________________________________________________________________________
Who to vote for?
I have always believed that anyone man who believes he can be the voice for an entire nation is either a dictator, an id!ot or living in lalaland. Along the line the pure intention that you had after law school or studying political science awakes so the harsh reality that politicians don't do good for everyone. Only the common man can do that.

Yes yes yes I'm there with you all the way, but the way you are saying it seems to be more force fed then assimilated into the debate is all. You make it very one sided and unable to debate.

You say:
Does the DA provide more free services to those that can afford it? Yes
I would say:
The DA provides more free services to those who can't afford it, what is the plans for the ANC to give core services?

You allow other views I guess...

So, how could they have been given land for the genocide of World War 2, if they were given the land prior to those events?

Voice of a nation, but you do get those select few that believe one person stands in stead for an entire culture. Like with the ET murder every comment was about how the Afrikaner has lost his voice, but f*ck that he is no leader of me? So if I understand correctly you are saying do not look for answers to the voting question but rather do what you must? Thats another thing I do not understand, and this might sound racist but just go with it, but why do so many black people still believe that the ANC will deliver? I understand why people vote ANC but why do they still act surprised when they do not deliver?

I think now we come to it, we do not need the DA to rule, but we need the DA to be strong, very strong and ideally maybe another party in the race. It is the way democracy is supposed to work and not only helps defend against corruption but also gives the people confidence that they have a voice.
Is it not sad that the struggle was about making each South Africans voice heard but that we can now only say one word with that voice?

Well, I visited those site.

Nope, DA does not support affairmative action. Actually, there are criticizing it.

DA does not support extrapropriation of land. Maybe you are reading those documents upside down.

Yes, ANC leadership is a bit sturbbon about Nationalisation, but some leaders do support it. This gives us some hope. DA is not even talking about it.
======================================================================================

The DA does not support AA? Then i wonder why even c.oloureds are losing jobs to black people in the Western Cape?

Ofcourse the DA supports land reform, they just blame government and not land owners for the slow pace of reform. The DA was the first party to introduce worker & farmer partnerships whereby many farm workers working on wine farms in the WC have equity stake in the farms they work for, which have proven to be much successful than the ANC's give land to a bunch of randoms who land up selling the land back to investors.

As for nationalization, there is no empirical evidence suggesting that nationalization will reduce poverty and increase opportunity for black people, infact, the ANC study concludes that it would bankrupt our state. So the DA been silent on nationalization is actually a good thing!

He won me over when his partner(girlfriend) was suspected of accepting a bribe (but it is a bit more intricate than that) HE approached Thuli Madonsela to investigate the allegations made. Some papers would continue to write articles implicating him and not mentioning what he did.

They don't use corruption as an excuse for anything. It is true, the land reform project as we know it was a complete failure because the department did not engage the issue properly, 20 years later, we are still waiting for a land audit, which the ANC claims will be ready by the end of the year. Such an audit should of been conducted & completed in 1995 already.

Please indicate in which countries that the nationalization of platinum & gold and steel mines have successfully reduced poverty and increased opportunity for its citizens. What people are scared? The ANC document rejects nationalization because it will bankrupt the state. The tax payer cannot afford to buy the shares. That is why it makes it more worth it to tax the mining companies so we dont need to give up money for shares and all legal obligations and risks that come with the mining industry.

I have said it before, the DA supports policies that grows our economy because without growth, you cannot defeat poverty, it does not matter if the captains of industry are black or white.

Other than the youth league the ANC tries as much as possible to maintain a united political ideaology in the public eye but his previous role as a student activist, trade unionist and member of umkhontho we sizwe indicate strong socio-economic views. He was a member of the NUM faction that saw mine death go from over 1000 to over 100 in ten years etc etc etc.

Contrary to popular belief he actually had more to do with Zuma being president. He has a quiet intensity that i really admire and i have yet to hear him say one stupid thing out of anger. For right now that's about as good as it can get. The days of the Mandelas, Sisulus, Tambos, Bikos are done

When I was doing my Bcom we made fun of the BA students and there Bugger All degrees. We would sit from 8-5 with lectures and they would have one lecture one hour every second day or something stupid and my god our Insolvency Law lecturer will go on for ever haha. Then we crapped in our pants because undergrad was so hard... how I wish for those days back...

@The-Rothschilds...DA blame governement for everything. They are the opposition, we understand. They use corruption as an excuse for people to hold on to land.

Natonalisation has improved people lives in other countries. That is why we suggested those models be tested here. People are just scared of the challenge and use bankrupcy as an excuse...
=======================================================================================

They don't use corruption as an excuse for anything. It is true, the land reform project as we know it was a complete failure because the department did not engage the issue properly, 20 years later, we are still waiting for a land audit, which the ANC claims will be ready by the end of the year. Such an audit should of been conducted & completed in 1995 already.

Please indicate in which countries that the nationalization of platinum & gold and steel mines have successfully reduced poverty and increased opportunity for its citizens. What people are scared? The ANC document rejects nationalization because it will bankrupt the state. The tax payer cannot afford to buy the shares. That is why it makes it more worth it to tax the mining companies so we dont need to give up money for shares and all legal obligations and risks that come with the mining industry.

I have said it before, the DA supports policies that grows our economy because without growth, you cannot defeat poverty, it does not matter if the captains of industry are black or white.
......................................
We will have to agree to disagree on this one.

I still maintain my point that DA must change its policies to represent the majority. By just adding black faces to their parliament members will not make us to vote for them. At a moment their policies represent the minority. We are not fools....
======================================================================================

How does DA policies represent just the interests of minority? Just because they refuse to punish white, this makes them a bad political party? The DA respects all classes of society, and recognizes the contributions that the middle class (of which millions of black people are now apart) makes to the economy, because there is not economy without a middle class.

You dont vote DA, not because of policies, but because of deep rooted hatred you have for white people :)
...........................................................................
Not to punish whites, but to correct the imbalances of the past. We can just move on and act as if nothing has happened.

Since when does the DA not acknowledge apartheid??? Helen Zille was against the hole system.

When she got there she grabbed her daughter's flannel out of her bag and took a quick trip to the loo to 'freshen' everything up.

Nothing like an impossible task to keep you busy. Even my vague understanding of it is that the physics applicable prior to the big bang would have been completely different to the subsequent physics, meaning that you're not only trying to find a needle in a haystack, but you don't even know what either the needle or the haystack look like, or should look like.

Which states that there are superstring "waves" (not really waves, but the vibrations of the strings), floating about outside our universe, and whenever these waves collide, a new universe is created.
