Godi betrayed the PAC and poor people

The Don Makatile interview with Themba Godi in Sowetan of September 8 refers.

The Don Makatile interview with Themba Godi in Sowetan of September 8 refers.

It is bizarre that Makatile thinks a conversation with Godi is taking a long, hard look into the soul of the PAC.

How can the soul of the PAC be found in a man who betrayed it, those who voted for it and talks ill of it? Godi claims the PAC is dead but he tried to kill it and unashamedly claims: "The PAC is dead".

Floor-crossing was political thuggery. That is why it was scrapped. Godi swindled the wretched of the earth who voted PAC and is trying to assuage his conscience, if he has one at all, by rubbishing it.

Godi and those who stole more or less 40 PAC council, provincial and national assembly seats were a faction of nuisance value and will continue their factionalism in the contraption they formed after floor-crossing.

He seems to have been bought off by the ANC to protect corrupt people in the rotten arms deal. He must give MP Eddie Trent access to the arms deal documents.

The shocking indictment by Judge Chris Nicholson of the government and president about the arms deal in the Jacob Zuma verdict no longer warrants that the arms deal documents be classified. Political parties must have access to them.

Godi should expend energy in that direction and leave the PAC alone. He knows nothing or very little about the PAC in exile.
