MKMVA notes the unprecedented arrogance that is hidden behind freedom of expression by the former Minister Kader Asmal who has now declared himself the voice of political authority. Kader Asmal cannot make statements as if he is the political god of the African National Congress and South Africa. In fact he has chosen a wrong route to resuscitate what was once his political career through sheer opportunism of space.
In response to Kader Asmal's remarks towards Comrade Fikile Mbalula, we advise Kader Asmal to go to the nearest cemetery and die if that is the choice he had made. He had forgotten the traditions and the processes of the organization in the election of any leader. Comrade Mbalula had never declared his availability and according to the organizational processes it is too early for any declaration of availability or any succession debates. Branches of the ANC will decide on who will stand in the next conference and will decide on who should lead the African National Congress.
We are of the opinion that Kader Asmal cannot speak on matters of political illiteracy as he had failed the many children and youth of South Africa during his tenure as Minister of Education. It is this arrogance that blinded him to fail the majority of the South African future; he should leave Comrade Jeff Radebe alone if he does not understand the decisions of the cabinet. There is nothing that makes him an experienced cabinet member as the only track record he has of cabinet is his failure and unprecedented blind loyalty.
