On the day of Mandela’s Memorial Service in the Pretoria Stadium, the former deputy general secretary of the South African Communist Party, Solly Mapaila stated in an interview with the Business Day, that Mandela, was a member of the party but it was denied at the time for “political reasons”.

“At his arrest in 1962, Nelson Mandela was not only a member of the then underground South African Communist Party, but was also a member of our party’s central committee. To us, South African communists, Cde [Comrade – note by TP] Mandela shall forever symbolize the fundamental contribution of the SACP in our liberation struggle” – the party said in a statement reacting to Mandela’s death.

The crowd in the stadium gathered to remember their former President, cheered enthusiastically to acknowledge the murderous African Dictator In Chief, Robert Mugabe. Even him could not believe it.

Probably the first time ever there were so many South Africans in a stadium without those damn Vuvuzelas.
