South African Federation of Trade Unions(SAFTU) general secretary, Zwelinzima Vavi believes that slain anti-apartheid activist Steve Biko would be disappointed in the state of South Africa at the moment.

“Almost two thirds of our people are speaking through their feets, they no longer have an interest in that bourgeoisie arrangement that is taking place in parliament. That’s why they are occupying the streets on their own, protesting on a daily basis fighting their own battles”, says Vavi.

An long-time friend and political ally of Biko, also former AZAPO president, Mosbibudi Mangena agrees with Vavi’s sentiments. “We didn’t fight for freedom so that our people can continue to be poor and be landless this is not what we fought for. We didn’t fight for freedom so that people can be workers and economy of the country be in the hands of white people. l will confirm that he didn’t not die so that our children can get poor education” says Mangena.

Azapo and the PAC have committed to work together to fulfill the realization of Biko’s ideas. PAC president, Mzwanele Nyhontso believes the collaboration will benefit both parties. “This unity unites the social forces behind the leadership of the Africans and Black Consciousness organizations. Steve Biko and Sobukhwe are honorary leaders this is to ensure we create socialist Azania”, says Nyhontso.

Especially to see how his 'comrades' destroyed and robbed the country.

Indeed people had been given only the right to vote, but the organization and running of the state has followed the same colonial track in a bourgeoisie democracy.

As a mother of two kids I have battled alot with my financial state to the point of begging from friends just to survive,until I started Bitcoin trading with the help of Catherine_nico I made a successful withdrawal of R 200,000 with the help of Catherine_nico

For once I agree with Vavi.

Aren't we all disappointed?
