A 'solution' without beauty, is no solution at all.

Dear @SKNgobese if you are still on the payroll of @DOAgov_ZA after your appointment by @JohnSteenhuisen you should be transparent about it. (news24.com/citypress/poli…)

AfriForum het sedert 2017 ’n goeie verhouding met die Mpungose Tradisionele Gemeenskap in die Nkandla-gebied en spesifiek die gemeenskap van Nkungumathe. Hierdie verhouding is gevestig toe AfriForum die gemeenskap bygestaan het om ’n hofbevel te verkry dat die Kuba Sekondêre Skool in die gemeenskap gebou moet word soos onderneem deur die provinsiale Departement van Onderwys.

Volgens Barend Uys, hoof van Interkulturele verhoudings en samewerking by AfriForum, is dit onrusbarend dat wetsbepalings nie nagekom word nie en dat die lewens van tradisionele leiers daardeur bedreig word. “Onbehoorlike inmenging wat die verhoudings tussen amakhosi en izinduna vertroebel en tradisionele leierskapstrukture verswak hou ernstige negatiewe gevolge vir die welstand van voetsoolvlakgemeenskappe in. Dit benadeel die gesonde funksionering en voortbestaan van kulturele leierskapstrukture en kulturele ordes en daarom die voortbestaan van kultuurgemeenskappe – en in dié geval, Zoeloe-gemeenskappe in die besonder. Premier Ntuli moet dringend ingryp ter wille van die veiligheid van tradisionele leiers en die welstand van die gemeenskappe wat hulle dien.”

AfriForum has enjoyed good relations with the Mpungose Traditional Community in the Nkandla area and specifically the Nkungumathe community since 2017. This relationship was established when AfriForum assisted the community to obtain a court order that the Kuba Secondary School must be built in the community as undertaken by the provincial Department of Education.

According to Barend Uys, Head of Intercultural Relations and Cooperation at AfriForum, it is concerning that legal provisions are not being complied with and that the lives of traditional leaders are thereby put in danger. “Improper interference that sours the relations between amakhosi and izinduna and weakens traditional leadership structures has serious negative consequences for the well-being of grassroots communities. It harms the healthy functioning and continued existence of cultural leadership structures and cultural orders and therefore the continued existence of cultural communities – and in this case, Zulu communities in particular. Premier Ntuli must intervene urgently for the sake of the safety of traditional leaders and the wellbeing of the communities they serve.”

I-AfriForum ijabulele ubudlelwano obuhle nomphakathi wakwaMpungose ​​endaweni yaseNkandla ikakhulukazi umphakathi waseNkungumathe kusukela ngo-2017. Lobu budlelwano basungulwa ngesikhathi i-AfriForum isiza umphakathi ukuthi uthole umyalelo wenkantolo wokuthi i-Kuba Secondary School kumele sakhelwe emphakathini njengoba lokho kwenziwa wuMnyango wezeMfundo esifundazweni.

Ngokusho kukaBarend Uys, oyiNhloko ye-Intercultural Relations and Cooperation e-AfriForum, kumayelana nokuthi imibandela yomthetho ayilandelwa nokuthi impilo yabaholi bendabuko ibeka engcupheni. “Ukugxambukela okungalungile okuphazamisa ubudlelwano phakathi kwamakhosi nezinduna kanye nokwenza buthaka izinhlaka zobuholi bendabuko kunemiphumela emibi kakhulu enhlalakahleni yemiphakathi emazini esathuthuka. Kulimaza ukusebenzisana okunempilo nokuqhubeka kwezinhlaka zobuholi bezamasiko kanye nemiyalelo yamasiko, futhi kuthinta nokuqhubekela phambili kwemiphakathi yamasiko – futhi kulokhu, ikakhulukazi imiphakathi yakwaZulu. UNdunankulu uNtuli kumele angenelele ngokushesha ngenhloso yokuqinisekisa ukuphepha kwabaholi bendabuko kanye nenhlalakahle yemiphakathi abayisebenzelayo.”
