THE CALLOUSNESS AND THOROUGHNESS OF ZUMA-PROMOTED MANDELASQUE SOUTH AFRICA’S THEMBUFICATION AND SO-CALLED XHOSAFICATION 1994 TO DATE



      Your Excellency Zuma

      1.     Your Excellency, and I say this with thanks in advance, are still considering a response to a grievance I launched at the Union Building as early as 2001 with neither a serious acknowledgment nor a resolution from Mr Thabo Mvuyelwa Mbeki, a neighbour by regional birth, to Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela whose relatives and tribe, the Thembu, are wreaking havoc with both leadership and discipline in the Department of Defence led by Lindiwe Nonceba Sisulu, herself a half-Thembu half-British of race/tribe.  If everything else evaporates from this post, all I needed to say is that I am getting worried, Your Excellency, I am being ignored by your office on this issue of naked Mandelasque Thembu tribalism against me just like I was ignored by H.E. Thabo Mvuyelwa Mbeki.

      1. I hope that the fact is not that Lindiwe Sisulu, buoyed by the findings of a misguided Judge B.R. Southwood, two weeks ago, has convinced Your Excellency that the cause for blowing the whistle is lost for Goodman Manyanya Phiri.  It is not!


      1. I also know, Your Excellency, that many will dismiss my grievance with President Zuma as a mere smokescreen to cover the charges a lieutenant colonel faces at the military.  But I will in return argue that is far from the truth; their analyses signify a mere mode that people in unduly comfortable positions (forgetting their children will pay for these ill-gotten comforts) get into in the process of burying heads in the sand.

      1. Besides, I am not the only South African black or white disgusted by Mandela’s 1994 introduction of our freedom and democracy with embedded Thembu tribalism made-in-Britain and all the ills that come with this cronyism.  Rather, I’m perhaps just the most selfless if not the most stupid among the millions unimpressed by Mandela to take on a giant recognized even by the United Nations on his Mandela Day.  But I’ll say even beyond my grave: “greater is He that is within me than   Mandela and his fallible United Nations, for there can be no peace in the world until Africa is totally and completely ridden of all forms neo-colonial domination.  In so far as Nelson Mandela symbolizes such neo-colonialism, he can never be viewed as the future of Africa and those who perpetrate the Mandela myth for the sake of public office had better make sure they do not beget      children because 50 or even 500 years hence, their descendants will be rounded up by an Africa spoiling for vengeance over an ancestral rubberstamp that ensured continued plundering of Africa’s mineral and human resources by a neo-Colonial Britain obsessed with Mandela for a good reason!


      1. If, Your Excellency, I may be anecdotal, allow me to talk about a Free-State young woman who, having nothing to lose, has allowed me to give her full details to this open letter to Zuma.

      1. This is 31-year-old Miss Mpho Mthombeni with whom Blogger last talked just before 11H44 a.m., Tuesday May 25, 2010, South African Time. Her cell number, and please (for those other than my President Zuma) do not phone her if you have nothing to offer her, is +27737516038.


      1. Mthombeni has in her South Africa’s most crucial academic achievement: A Grade 12 pass on Year 1998 Senior-Certificate-99016029510-Z. And 1979-10-19 born Mthombeni from Kgotsong, Bothaville in the Sotho-speaking Free State Province. Her home language, though, is Zulu; and she is proficient in many languages including Sotho and Afrikaans.  She is a Methodist Church adherent and bears no criminal record.  She has tertiary qualifications that include electrical engineering which she achieved at Hillsideview Technical College where she was majoring in Electrical Trade Theory, Engineering Science, Industrial Electronics and Mathematics.

      1. Due, I believe, to the habits of Mbekiite Xhosa tribalists who maliciously and regularly threw into the street CVs of applicants who are non-Xhosa, Mthombeni has a history of one day waking up with a Nedbank banking company knocking on her door for a repayment of her “R8000 loan”.  A victim of identity theft, she had never had had any such dealings with Nedbank or any other bank for that matter. But pay the money back she had, as I had previously contacted her,  to pay.


      1. Fortunately the common sense of Nedbank did prevail and she was left off the hook, she reported to Blogger on last day of communication. But how many "nedbanks" with a hygienic common sense exist in a South Africa on a legacy of a Mbekiite-Xhosa-tribalistic  corruption of filling South Africa’s topmost posts with whites of British stock and Xhosa-speakers is a guess of mine as good as yours!

      1. The more fortunate among these victims of Mbekiite Xhosa tribalism in the public sector would, unlike Mthombeni, get phone calls from strangers that their applications were seen littering the streets of Pretoria as was the case witnessed by Colonel Phiri.

      1. I am returning with many more details of that theme on lower lines of this blog; for now I want to get into the shoes of those who in South Africa are just as far politically conscious as their bread and their butter can stretch.

      1. Just for those who do not know the history or  politics of modern ANC, Thabo Mvuyelwa Mbeki, is the man whom Nelson Mandela, out of no reason other than fellow-Eastern-Cape-regionalism in my view, was hand-picked by Nelson Mandela for his own successor over a popular choice of Venda-speaking Cyril Ramaphosa.  The rest of autocracy, blunders on the HIV fight, abuse of state power to fight political battles, continued tribalism etc. etc. is now history of common cause, as one judge blogger met at the High Court would have termed it.

      1. Mr President Zuma and Commander in Chief, unlike one too many who has been to presidency through corridors of power in London, you are an exception you are an exception to those whose political conscious borders on expediency.  Because no politician ever in South African history has been tried and tested like you have been.  Because you have been to  trenches with us former guerrillas during the anti-apartheid struggle.  Because you have been to trenches in many respects with us even post-apartheid, what with the false charges that were meted against you in order to derail your political progress.  Because, over and above the pains you went through in gaol, on Robben Island, you have also been to the place sages of antiquity called “exile is death”’.  But when, through exile or any other cauldron of the soul, a man or woman nears death for the love of country One other who has maybe not yet learnt to love country with similar exquisiteness and selflessness may not understand the motive of sacrifice.

      1. That One can read, Mr President and Commander in Chief, about the reign of terror unleashed in exile by Nelson Mandela’s tribe both in the ANC and the PAC and dismiss it as reactionary propaganda, fair enough.


      1. That One can on one hand read about the 1994 process of derecognizing thousands of former freedom fighters who are roaming the streets to this day with no prospect of rehabilitation under Lindiwe Sisulu’s equally-pro-Thembu-tribalistic style of running her department of Defence an Veterans Affairs.  One can read, on the other hand, about members of Nelson Mandela’s tribe from both the PAC and the ANC have filled in state employ with questionable credentials.  And one can conclude: if people with questionable credentials have made it to clover, it is reasonably an indictment against those other non-Thembu former freedom fighters that they elected not to exercise their rights in demand in demand of re-integration with South African society.

      1. That One can read about service delivery right left and centre being atrocious in South Africa where members of Nelson Mandela’s tribe and relatives will in leadership be found to be featuring high the length and breadth of South Africa and not just in the Eastern Cape where they are naturally dominant.  And one can fairly conclude, ah but Phiri, these poor Thembus are but part and parcel of the larger post-94 African intelligentsia who are still in a learning curve about governance in a spring-chicken democracy.

      1. That One can reasonably argue that there is no correlation between this ongoing Thembufication of South Africa and the xenophobia (strictly against fellow-black people of the Continent).

      1. All I am saying is that this or that conclusion over South Africa’s racial conflict that has outlived apartheid to take the form of Mandelasque-Thembu tribalism (which also include regionalism) and anti-African xenophobia is a matter of the swing of the pendulum and the seriousness of each cerebrum in the debate.

      1. Of course, from personal experience, I am arguing there is extant in South Africa today vestiges of apartheid that was not only condoned or encouraged by Nelson Mandela, but is going to stay in our national face for one to two hundred years to come, unless a bold government, as bold as yours, Your Excellency Zuma, addresses this matter rather than pretend it is the figment in the imagination of a lieutenant colonel on the verge of being dismissed by the SANDF for serious charges of insubordination and absence without official leave.

      1. Allow me hereunder to show just how intense has the campaign been to thembufy the government sector, (if to return to my anecdotal mould first broached many paragraphs above this post).



      1. An apparent mandelocrat maliciously scatters hundreds of unwanted non-Mandela-family, non-Thembu and non-eastern-cape  CVs up and down Pretoria’s streets The CVs of:
        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2000 Senior-Certificate-01076003290-E holder and 1979-11-13 born Johannah Ramasela Ledile Lekalakala.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1992 Senior-Certificate-93091971949-N holder and 1974-03-19 born Maesela Jeffrey Kgwete.


        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1995 Senior-Certificate-95016045054-K holder and 1971-06-28 born Saldah Thabitha Mokoena whose first language is Northern Sotho (Saldah, born in Boerboomkraal, is computer-literate, having been duly certificated for Word Processing at the Mapodile Community Resource Centre from January to March 1988. Saldah boasts a Code 10 driver’s licence and good health to back the driving licence with. She has two dependants who, together with her, would have been extremely happy to see her get a job in government, were it not for the Mbekiite tribalism-cum-Eastern-Cape-regionalism of those days of her application. A Christian Apostolic Jerusalem Church adherent, she can be contacted via the postal address: P.O. Box 2030, Burgersfort 1150.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2003 Senior-Certificate Examination Number A373601400056 of Centre Number 7360140 Nthetsheleseni and 1982-04-26 born Mulovhedzi Mulalo whose first language is TshiVenda. This young man who is a promising wizard in languages and Economics, is gettable via P.O. Box 3195, Sibasa 0970.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1993 Senior-Certificate-93007332256-K holder and 1970-03-24 born Rendani Lillian Mulaudzi whose first language is Venda (Rendani may not be a genius, but she is apparently pretty good at English and the mannerisms that goes with the language of Her Majesty.  This probably explains why on various occasions BEE-GEE Stores and Beares Furnishers made her a temporary cashier. This Shayandima Secondary School graduate is good at most of the languages of South Africa including Afrikaans, Luvenda, Zulu, Sotho and Shangaan. Good Samaritans (and not Mbekiite mandelocrats) can make contact with her on P.O. Box 840, Shayandima 0945.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1991 Senior-Certificate holder and 1972-10-15 born Mabaso Maureen Nokuthula whose first language is Zulu.  This Ogies’ Mabande High School graduate may perhaps not strike you as the most intelligent woman, but she definitely is a wisest one who, realizing that her strongest subject at school was Typing, decided to tackle the National N4 Certificate at Mpondozankomo Technical College soon after her matriculation, with a focus on subjects like Office Practice, Accounting, Communication and Typing. She boasts one of the prettiest faces you can ever find in a woman, complete with a most beautiful natural afro. She’s gettable on P.O. Box 25795, Hlalanikahle, Witbank 1045.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2002 Senior-Certificate-03092022143-J holder and 1984-05-19 born Sibusiso Erick Mabaso whose first language is Zulu.  This Seme       Secondary School graduate may not look like a model student. But nobody said if you are an academic under-achiever then you deserve to have your C.V. thrown into the streets by Mbekiite mandelocrats in senior state employ.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1997 Senior-Certificate-98001984251-Z holder and 1980-11-05 born Thobile Precious Mabuza whose first language is Zulu. Having passed English and Zulu both in Higher Grade, no one, save tribalists, can fail to appreciate Thobile’s knack for langauges. Her ID copy, also thrown into the street together with the rest of her CV, shows the face of an impressively confident young woman. Maybe this was boosted by a computer literacy she subsequently (November 2000) acquired at Boston Business College with Windows 98, Business English, Understanding the Internet, Keyboarding, MS Word 97 and General Office Practice, among other subjects. A product of Zinikeleni High School, Mabuza’s talents were spotted and utilized (albeit too briefly) by among others:  Statistics South Africa (where she worked as a numerator; and Carolina Hospital where she was an Admin Clerk. Unless there was, as it sometimes does happen, one powerful Thembu who decided to defy his/her own fellow-Mandelasque-tribespeople to give  her the job she’d wanted, Mabuza will still only be found via P.O. Box 24, Carolina 1185.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1996 Senior-Certificate-97025127548-N holder and 1977-02-08 born Mokone Charles Makokomale whose first language is South Sotho. A Code-8 Driver’s Licence Holder who has also been academically commended by Vanderbijlpark-based Vaal Triangle Technikon for doing subjects of Engineering, Computer and Communication (among others), is in fact a High School graduate of Oziel Selele Com. School. He may not boast any bright results for his Grade 12, but judging from his other achievements mentioned above, one understands why his face on the ID and the Driver’s Licence exudes confidence, "go-gettership" and perseverance. “Look for the potential”, as the saying goes, and don’t just look for only tribal links with the Eastern Cape!  On 19 May 2010 when Blogger tried to contact numbers of the applicants, Makokomale was not only one of the less that 5% whose numbers worked, but it sounded from the sister like his story is one that ended with success as a mine has apparently has apparently found him good enough to be one of its engineers. Makokomale comes from Zone 14, Sebokeng 1982 (postal code).

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1998 Senior-Certificate-99055166755-Z holder and 1973-12-29 born Garnet Tebogo Malepe whose first language is a Northern Sotho that she passed superbly even on Higher Grade.  This lady from Extension 5 Tsakane with royal eyes and a forehead to match feeds her yin with Boxing and Karate while she thrives best with her yan in Music (for sure to cool a beau down in case his unfounded presentiment of probable battery overwhelms his prospects of seeing her play the wife for him).  Above all, Malepe bears no criminal record.  The blogger succeeded to get hold of her telephonically and the clear and confident talker indicated she is now 7 years down the line working for some private company into signages (or something) for the shops.  But that is no excuse for throwing her CV into the street when she applies for a post as a civil servant.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1989 Senior-Certificate Examination Participant No. A112072 and 1963-11-17 born Mampane Magapu Zacharia whose first language is North Sotho.  The number he gave for correspondence gives the response he’s “now working for Transnet on the Gautrain Project in Johannesburg”. But one can always make correspondence with this former teacher on P.O. Box 1002, Sekhukhune 1124.  By the way, this man is fond of debating societies, school choirs, reading, travelling, soccer and all forms of gregariousness and socializing.  It explains why he is fluent in English, Afrikaans, North Sotho, Tswana and Zulu, among other languages.  He prides himself on ambitiousness, loyalty, discipline as well as good senses of humour and judgment. Unfortunately he could not correctly judge that when he made an application for job in a Mbekiite government with an apparent appetite for only Xhosa-speakers, his CV would be cruelly thrown into the streets of Pretoria.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1994 Senior-Certificate-95021934880-W holder and 1975-12-24 born Emma Mmakgabo Mangana whose first language is Tswana, pretty gifted in languages with the resultant good passes in English, Afrikaans and Tswana subjects.  Among all the stories reflected here, hers will probably rank as the most saddening because she got her matric when the buzzword was not the FIFA Soccer World Cup as it was to be 16 years hence (for the fortunate to enjoy government jobs and money to splash around) but she got her matric on the very year “Mandela brought us freedom”. Not satisfied with a mere matric, she went further to attain a Bachelor’s Degree from the University of the North-West. Totally heart-broken and her voice suicidal as Blogger telephonically talked to her (after talking to the sister) around 14H18, 19 May 2010, the poor woman has never succeeded to get a serious job eversince she left Academia.  All she got was to have her CV thrown into the street while the Mbeki government was telling the world “whites are still running the public sector because blacks (read “those with Eastern-Cape birth”) were still not educated enough”. Anyway, this Thulare High School graduand from Block FF Soshanguve can be contacted via sms to blogger (+27833087713) and once I’m satisfied somebody has a job to strengthen the soul of a heartbroken BA-holder who majored in sociology and journalism, I will release to that one her contact.  Mangana and I believe she is in this predicament because too many of the people in key Mbekiite government positions, some of them without a mere matric, feared her “over-qualification”       which, if matched with a job, would upset the apple cart of the tribalism that has been so entrenched in South Africa’s Gauteng-situated Pretoria capital city you would think the first language of Gauteng is the language spoken by Nelson Mandela’s AbaThembu tribe what with  about anything that could be written in black vernacular, written in the language the Thembu adopted under apartheid: IsiXhosa Language!

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2004 Senior-Certificate holder on 1993’s Examination Number 8008035541080 on Examination Centre 799990709 and 1980-08-03 born
          Mutavhatsindi Collins whose first language is TshiVenda. This Tshimbupfe Senior Secondary School’s graduate does not merely boast a Code 10 Driver’s Licence, but he also has behind his belt one year’s Technical Engineering qualification attained at Technical College of Venda. Mutavhatsindi is available at P. O. Box 2488, Vuwani 0950.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1996 Senior-Certificate-97087304732-C holder and 1974-05-25 born Tsumbedzo Juliah Nemukula whose first language is Venda. As of 2004, Tshilala Secondary School graduate was furthering her studies at the University of Venda. She is available on the following postal address: P.O. Box 5892, Thohoyandou 0950 as her telephonic contact has since fallen on totally strange hands who know nothing about Tsumbedzo.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1998 Senior-Certificate-99005185020-H holder and 1979-05-09 born Azwitamisi Netshilunzhe whose first language is Venda. This Khakhu Secondary School graduate who speaks good English, Venda, Sotho, Zulu, Pedi and Shangaan, not surprisingly has since he left school, also notched a Public Relations Certificate from Lyceum College. This handsome but serious-faced young man reflects his postal contact as follows: P. O. Box 1605, Extension 19, Naturena 2064.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2001 Senior-Certificate-02014085200-M holder and 1980-08-30 born Nkhensani Carol Tsumele whose first language is Tsonga.  This       Hanyani High School graduate, now a qualified social worker, is one of the few of us victims of Mbekiite tribalism-cum-Eastern-Cape-regionalism who has succeeded to see the change brought about by the Jacob Zuma era. On contacting her at around 18H04 on Wednesday 19 May 2010, she happily replied that she at last got a job in government, but only this year!

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1997 Senior-Certificate-97054005590-C holder and 1977-09-13 born Rirhandzu Constance Ntsumele whose first language is Northern Tsonga....... available on  P. O. Box 1253, Khomanani 0933.


        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1999 Senior-Certificate-00040021974-P holder and 1977-10-03 born Ntshehi Makgadile Margaret Mampane whose first language is Northern Sotho. At 06H42pm on Wednesday 19 May 2010 I talked to this ANC and later ANC Youth League office bearer for various periods since 1999 about her well-written CV thrown in a Pretoria street six years ago if she has got a job anywhere, and she sadly said no; and all she is doing for the sake of not rusting is do some nursing work even though she is not paid a cent for it.  People do not have to get jobs in government but nobody deserves to have her CV thrown into the street along ethnic lines if there is no job, or do they?  This gospel-music lover can be contacted on P. O. Box 455, Marishane 1064. She is married and resides at Lehwelereng Section, Ga-Phaahla.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1997 Senior-Certificate-98026064359-A holder and 1978-05-05 born Jeffrey Bongani Ntuli whose first language is Zulu.  For some administrative reason, this Embizweni High School graduate who responded to a government post in not any other part of South Africa, but the poverty-stricken Nkandla district where His Excellency Zuma comes from in KZN, found that CV deliberately thrown in a street of Pretoria after apparent approval in all other stages regionally and provincially.  It did not help Ntuli the fact that among the languages he speaks and writes well (including Sotho and the challenging Venda) there is Xhosa, the language of the ruling (or misruling) tribe under Mbeki’s tribal order of things in 2004! Ntuli’s contact on the CV does not read very well save for the fact that it even reflects some shaded area on the map of South Africa. Anyway, the University of Venda where he got a tertiary education in 2002 wrote: “Jeffrey Bongani Ntuli 11514018, F 802, Umlazi Township, P.O. Umlazi 4031”. He himself says he can be contacted on P.O. Box 164, Mokula 0978.  As to why provincial employment of citizens had to be regulated in Pretoria will beat many of us lesser intelligent creatures; and the fact that none of these CV’s were found to come from the Eastern Cape does suggest an abnormality in the apparent centralization if it does not suggest the obvious fact that in Pretoria fellow Xhosas received preferential treatment in the Mbeki administration and were thus given the jobs that were so cruelly denied other equally deserving South Africans.

        1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1996 Senior-Certificate-96043227630-E holder and 1969-07-12 born Khushumusi Thomas Ramulifho whose first language is Venda. This sports and recreation facilitator who is also a community policing forum member did not only dismally fail to convince Mbeki’s Department of Correctional services that he can do a job, but, like the many others reflected here, got his CV deliberately splayed in the streets for passers-by to pick and peruse, rather than to dispose of in a humane way.(Blogger could easily have several credible witnesses who saw at least one incident of this Mbekiite jobs-for-tribe apartheid, and one of such witnesses was none other than my colleague of many days in exile, Mr Simon Sekgokgo Mabalane.  Two other witnesses, who will most probably be hostile, were plainclothesmen dispatched by Mr  Moreti Johannes Motau’s Unit for the purpose of “taking away from Phiri this ammunition for further averment that there is going on in South Africa today a tribalism-cum-Eastern-Cape-regionalism”.  And of course I denied them access to those CVs, and instead, chaperoned them to the streets where they collected even more and more of their own which presumably they took to suppressive Motau and his team of white, often racist, generals: covering the tracks of a tribalistic and Eastern-Cape regionalistic Mbeki government! (Motau himself, a retired general of intelligence, is reliably reported as born in the Eastern Cape!).



      Moreti Johannes Motau a blind-Zuma-supported and  reliably-pointed-out-Eastern-Cape- born (Tuesday, 10 March 1953) Mandelasque-Xhosa-regionalist and tribalist who would best like to be known as a non-Xhosa-speaker... please watch video below!


    1. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1995 Senior-Certificate-95027327947-T holder and 1975-10-28 born Matshele Milton Rapolai whose first language is Northern Sotho.  This confident-looking (ID photo) Lekoko Senior Secondary school graduate can be contacted at P. O. Box 566, Marishane 1064.

    2. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1996 Senior-Certificate-97071934821-S holder and 1978-01-13 born Maleshwane Ruth Gloria Marumo whose first language is Southern Sotho. Contact with her is unfortunately not reflecting on Blogger’s document seeing that it is her house address. Suffice it to say that she is from Khumalo Street in Vredefort 9595.  Make no mistake: this is a very bright woman, particularly linguisticall, but alas, such facts apparently did not wash with Mbekiite mandelocrats who viewed South Africa as their land to the exclusion of other ethnic groups.

    3. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1994 Senior-Certificate-95084031973-G holder and 1975-07-02 born Tebogo Sarah Masege whose first language is Tswana. Correspondence with her: P. O. Box 2388, Mogwase 0314. Go-getter of a woman, Masege has over and above her ex-Makoba High School Grade 12, gone further to get herself a driver’s licence, a Damelin-institution one-year Introduction to Computers as well as a three-year diploma in education. Even the South African Police Services where she was holding some kind of piece job while she was applying for a more permanent job in government, gave her Certificate Number 7012045-5 for successfully completing their Basic Field Training in Potchefstroom on 30 May 2003.  All of this did not appeal to Mbekiite mandelocrats in Pretoria; and like the rest of them victims, they deliberately threw her CV into the street to be perused by strangers while they turned to tell South Africa: “There are not enough blacks to take responsible positions in government... it’s only the whites and Eastern-Cape blacks”

    4. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2002 Senior-Certificate holder and 1981-12-10 born Masikhwa Mboniseni Othliah with his first language being Venda. She is available on P. O. Box 161, Makonde 0984.  She sat for her Grade 12 Examination on Examination Number A273201340009 at Centre Number 7320134 a.k.a. Mphalaleni Senior Secondary School.

    5. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1999 Senior-Certificate-00019805420-X holder and 1981-01-11 born Nkhumeleni Jeffrey Mathidi whose first language is Venda.  This J/Mushathama Secondary School graduate is also a one-year secretarial diploma-holder. So, potential scribes in South Africa get their CV’s thrown into the street by a regime led by a man who copy-cats “African Renaissance”.  How can you have a renaissance with an African nation that is forced to have only one (Mbekiite Xhosa) tribe writing about itself when other ethnic groups equally gifted intellectually get so down-trodden?

    6. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2000 Senior-Certificate-01066058360-D holder and 1974-09-19 born Julia Thokozile Matshiya whose first language is Zulu.  This word-processing expert is last recorded as resident Mphelo, Lynnville in Witbank. Unfortunately there is no clearer or safer means to contact her save via cell phone numbers of relatives or referees which I am not at liberty to release on this document.

    7. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1994 Senior-Certificate-95008049213-H holder and 1973-02-18 born Ntshengedzeni Emmanuel Mmbadaliga whose first language is Venda.  Running the prestigious Comrades Marathon (42.2km) on May 1 1999, this Venda-speaker proved that he belongs to the fittest and fastest 2% of any marathon runner; this, over and above a Certificate of Merit as the best student in (Velelambeu Secondary) School Attire and Tidiness. The Mbeki government was not impressed: probably they were looking for a Xhosa-speaker only to have such physical qualities, which are of course  (as science seems to suggest) impossible without matching intellectual capabilities.  Unfortunately, a weather-beaten CV with some letters in feint, will, as in this case, fail to reveal certain vital information like the contact details of this gentleman.

    8. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2002 Senior-Certificate-03094005270-M holder and 1978-06-24 born Tshilidzi Mmeregi whose first language is Venda. Save for her residential address in the Isithame Section of Tembisa (which I may not give in entire detail), there is no contact address for this man who in security matters has achieved subjects of Legal Aspects, Vigilance, First Aid, Fire Arm Evaluation based on 9mm Beretta Pistol, L.M. 4 Semi-Automatic Rifle and 12 Bore Shotgun.  Blogger contacted him telephonically on Thursday 12H11 and he still does not have job, six years after his CV was thrown into the street.

    9. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 2003 Senior-Certificate holder and 1984-10-16 born Mogano Kolobe Rosah whose first language is Sepedi. She wrote her Grade 12 on the Examination Number A371109010057, Centre Number 7110901 Mpedi Bapeding. No safe contact address quotable.

    10. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1993 Senior-Certificate-94044011080-Z holder and 1975-06-15 born Matsie Olivia Modjadibe whose first language is Northern Sotho.  She is also a qualified primary school teacher who is contactable on P. O. Box 3577, Sovenga 0727.

    11. Non-Thembu-of-Mandela-tribe-sounding Year 1998 Senior-Certificate-99066062509-K holder and 1976-06-21 born Khomotso Elizabeth Mohlaloganye whose first language is Northern Sotho.





  1. All of this pro-Mandela-Thembu-tribal rot started nowhere else but in the Army back in 1994.  It has been long established that the first port of call for corruption in any nation is nowhere else but its armed forces.


  2. No sooner did H.E. Nelson Mandela, with a lot of above- and under-ground British involvement/brokerage negotiate his own release from jail, the unbanning of political prisoners, the official demise of apartheid and the extension of suffrage to Africans, he set out to Thembufy the nation by means of ensuring Thembu domination in the SANDF.


  3. To achieve this, he invited his old friends (and the friends of his great-grandfather Thembu King Ngubencuka a.k.a. Puppet King) the British.


  4. They came in the guise of the British Military Advisory and Training Team (BMATT) the minuting of their secretive work is found to be non-existent even by a High Court of South Africa (at least where the Phiri versus State matter is concerned).  Yet these are the people who made sure that, to this day under Lindiwe Sisulu, one or two tribes dominate the army under Lindiwe Sisulu: and those tribes are ethnic British soldiers and Mandela’s Thembu tribe (with a coterie of Afrikaander yes-men and women who are in any case faced with the Hobson’s Choice of dismissal or non-promotion should their patriotism as true Africans be overtaken by British-type segregationist practice that under colonialism taught the white skin colour is more important than a man or woman’s patriotism to black Africa.


  5. That, Mr President Zuma, is the reason why I would humbly declare, if Your Excellency have a very strong government going here with a lot public confidence, please accept your Department of Defence and Veterans Affairs as your Achilles Hill.  It is the unattended tribal mismanagement of this Department by Lindiwe Sisulu that could even see Your Excellency removed from power and possibly prosecuted along the lines of Charles Taylor.


  6. Your know very well, Your Excellency, that your detractors will never run out of ammunition to use against you, and Zuma-type Zulu tribalism may just be one that is in the fast making if in the future it is found that your ignored Phiri’s grievance about Mandelasque Thembu tribalism because maybe your government was also looking for similarly ill-gotten niche for Zulu-speakers in the next two to six years of South Africa’s troubled freedom.


  7. Conclusion.  I know that too many Xhosa-speakers and Eastern-Cape born characters like Lindiwe Sisulu in government have never really learnt to genuinely treat ethnic groups other than theirs as anything else but subhumans after the Xhosa-speaking Thembu and whites particularly of British stock.  Today, I humble myself to say Lindiwe Sisulu should learn, and maybe learn the same hard way her tribal cousin Thabo Mbeki learnt his own ouster in Polokwane.  The learning curve is  going to be as dizzying as it is also going to be painful, Ms Sisulu.  However, that pain (and there you must agree with me) will nowhere match the pain that has been being inflicted by a Mbekiite mandelocratic-cum-white-racist regime after regime since 1994 against other Africans whereby an SABC, then headed by yet a Thembu with colonial British blood (Zwelakhe Sisulu), could go out to former liberation movements (PAC and ANC) and scout for the public broadcaster mainly Xhosa-speakers and Eastern-Cape born people to the exclusion of better-qualified individuals whose only crime was apparently the lack of tribal connections with the Eastern Cape.


  8. Gone are the tribally-crazed days of Thabo Mbeki, Lindiwe Sisulu should be taught, when applicants for jobs would be embraced and consummated when coming from the Eastern Cape while applicants by non-Xhosas would only know they have been rejected by falling victims to identity thieves.


  9. President Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma, the South African People’s Choice, must be given a chance, Ms Sisulu, to govern South Africa without encumbering his term of office with the moribund neo-colonialist practices of Mandelasque tribalism, a programme that, in broad daylight and even under the Aurora of the Sun, is going to collapse soon together with the statues of the man (save the one in Trafalgar Square).  With the rubble from his statues (including the one in Trafalgar Square should more British citizens eschewed Tony Blair’s mistakes committed at the expense of the Zimbabwean people, rather heed the teachings of Harold Macmillan about the winds of change blowing in Africa), Africa
will build one statue of the real McCoy,
Father of the South African Nation
Father of Pan Africanism
Founder of the ANC Thembu-tribalistic Mandela was trying to mimic:
Pixley ka Isaka Seme
whose nine-generation genealogy or izithankazelo reads:
“Pixley ka Isaka
ka Snono ka Mbuyazi
ka Njonjo ka Khuwana
ka Mqubeya ka Dladla
ka Sokoti ka Seme.”

Pixley ka Isaka Seme
whose praise-song reads:
“Mbuyazi, Seme!
Dovuyane! Nxele!
Sinyakuzana saseNgulane!
Nkunzana engumbhuqwana!*
Ehluph'amajaji ekhotho!
USibhudubhudu esinamawala! Mahlal’ehlomile emizini yamadoda!
Isiphepho esiyinqaba esiza kabi siyakhandanisa!
Abanezingane mabazetshathe emahlombe!
ABADALA BAZOZIBONELA!”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

*”Engumbhuqwana”, a word difficult for even some native Zulu speakers, talks to “shortness”, a probable allusion to “ubhuqu”, a Zulu word that could mean “dust” in the sense that those who are short are very close to the dust... really not far from the other African language called Afrikaans, where the vulgar word for a short man would be “stofpoeper”= “he who farts directly onto the dusty footpath”  Ms Helen Seme, whom the blogger interviewed some years ago, confirms the fact that her father was a relatively diminutive figure. “nkunz-ANA”, which cocoons another suffix (-ana) used in Zulu, Swazi and many other South African languages like Ndebele, Tsonga (and even the Sotho groupings of languages) almost tautologically drives the point home that indeed Pixley ka Isaka Seme was a short man.  “Nkunzana”, therefore, means “bullock” or “small bull”.  Who said Napoleon Bonaparte and Shaka Zulu were alone to increase brain power as a making-up process for diminutive bodily sizes (the torso and the penis respectively)?
