I am not the kind of leader who pontificates about what should be done - I don't operate on scenarios, and I am not a prophet.

I have been in America only once since Mr. Clinton became your president - as a speaker at the United Nations.

Personally, I believe in self-determination, but in the context of one South Africa - so that my self-determination is based in this region, and with my people.

The candidates before you know that the IFP has set up a system of deployed IFP national and provincial leaders who are not only monitoring the performance of candidates during these elections but will also do so after these elections.

It is clear before God and man that the entire war on HIV and AIDS has not been waged with any degree of piety, responsibility and care.

In Hanover Park they highlighted the terrible plight of backyard dwellers and the fact that year after year nothing has been done to help you: the hope and despair you all live with every day.

Clearly you need a new team to go out to bat on your behalf; to fight for your rights and to report back to you personally and to the leadership of the IFP.
