The proof of the fact that revelation is not confined to the book of GOD/ALLAH and that revelation over and above the scriptures were received by Prophets possessing scriptures, is that every Prophet is not the possessor of a scripture, but every Prophet is a possessor of revelation. The revelation of Steve Biko was the Azanian Manifesto. Hence the liberation theology which was introduced by the leaders of BCMA, that is comrade Jerry Mosala
I joined Azapo, and the Azanian Student Movement (Azasm) in 1983. I was introduced to Azasm by comrade Michael Motlabane, and became involved in all its activities within schools. In 1986, I became the President of the Umguyo Organisation, which was the underground movement of Azapo. As part of the struggle against the Apartheid Government, I was involved in ‘underground’ activities from 1983 till 1994.
Leaving the country in 1989, returning in 1991.
I finished my matric/grade 12 at St Francis Adult School in Langa township. Furthering my studies in Madina University (Saudi Arabia), UCT, Erfurt University in Germany, Ajman University in UAE and Islamabad University.
In 2019 I was recruited by comrade Sr. Ayesha to join the Aljama-ah Political Party – and became councillor for the Drakenstein Municipality. We were the new kids on the block, but within a few weeks of canvassing manage to get 1900 votes – and have been growing ever since.
In time we became more active in our community, opening two soup kitchens, in rural Paarl East and Mbekweni, where we serve +-500 people a day. We are also involved with projects for the elderly in the area, back to school projects and the school shoe and stationery project.
We are always available to assist. In 2023 when Paarl was hit by hard storms and many homes lost, our people were left homeless. We stepped up, seeking donations and making resources available to assist anyone in need. We remain, always available to help.
