JOHANNESBURG, S. Africa: July 1 (Xinhua) — The African National Congress (ANC) Youth League on Sunday called for an investigation into political k******s which are on the rise in South Africa.
The league made the appeal following the m****r of Wandile Mkhize, the ANC chief whip at Ugu District municipality in KwaZulu- Natal province. Mkhize, also a former ANC Youth League leader in the area, was m******d at his home in Port Shepstone on the KwaZulu-Natal south coast shortly after arriving home Sat**day night from the ANC’s national policy conference in Midrand near Johannesburg.
The a****k also critically w*****d a friend of Mkhize. The Youth League said it was angered and saddened by Mkhize’s m****r. The i******t highlighted an increase in political k******s, particularly in KwaZulu-Natal and Mpumalanga provinces, the league said.
“The African National Congress Youth League has learnt with sadness of the pa*sing away of a fearless revolutionary and a disciplined young lion, comrade Wandile Mkhize,” spokeswoman Khusela Sangoni-Khawe said in a statement.
Mkhize had “a sharp and probing intellect, with an appet*te to continuously engage even those he disagreed with”, Sangoni-Khawe said. Meanwhile, the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal called Mhize’s d***h “a great t*****y” and a loss not only to his family but also to the entire movement.
“The ANC strongly condemns this b****l act and urges the law enforcement agencies to do everything possible to bring those responsible to book,”spokesman B**gani Mthembu said.
According to latest figures from the South African Congress of Trade Unions (COSATU), political k******s in Mpumalanga alone have claimed more than 10 lives since 2006 while the v*****s were all w***********rs who reported c********n in the province. (Xinhua)
