UThemba Godi, umongameli we-African People's Convention (APC), unxuse abavoti ukuthi basekele amakhansela azoletha izinsizakalo ezibalulekile kunezo eziphoqelelwa amaqembu ezepolitiki, ekhuluma ngesikhathi kumenyezelwa abantu abazongenela ukhetho lobumeya be-APC kumasipala kaDkt JS Moroka, Thembisile Hani, kanye neBushbuckridge eBushbuckridge ngoLwesine.<\/p>\n
Ngesikhathi somhlangano weqembu, uGodi ugxeke indlela amanye amaqembu ezepolitiki akhetha ngayo amakhansela, ephikisana ngokuthi abantu abathile abazongenela ukhetho bakhethwa ukuze izikhulu eziphezulu zikwazi ukusebenzisa izinsiza zikamasipala. Usole la maqembu ngokwazisa ukwethembeka kunekhono futhi waqokomisa izingozi ezibangelwa yilokhu ekubuseni okuphumelelayo.<\/p>\n
\u201cLabo abaphatha kabi omasipala njengamanje abananhloso yokushintsha. Abanye babo, ngisho ukuthi, uma ubheka lapha eBushbuckridge, ubheka ukukhethwa kwabantu abazongenela ukhetho kwamanye amaqembu, ungabona ukuthi inhloso ukuba nabantu abayizimpumputhe njengamakhansela ukuze abantu abaphezulu bakwazi ukubasebenzisa ukwenza zonke izinto ezingalungile,\u201d kusho uGodi.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Waqhubeka wathi, \u201cAsinakulindela ukuthi labo abadale izinkinga bazixazulule. Yingakho sithi labo abangakwazi ukuphatha izimali zomphakathi, abanalo ibhizinisi lokukhethwa kabusha kuhulumeni ngoba bazibonakalisele bona ukuthi abakwazi.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ukulethwa Kwezinsizakalo Zasemakhaya Nezinkinga Zasendaweni<\/h4>\n
Amalungu e-APC abekhona emhlanganweni azwakalise ukwaneliseka ngabazongenela ukhetho abasanda kumenyezelwa, egcizelela isidingo sabameleli abasabela ngokushesha ezidingweni zomphakathi futhi bagweme ukukhaphela ukwethenjwa kwabavoti. Elinye ilungu leqembu lathi, \u201cSithumele amaqembu esikholelwa ukuthi angaletha izinguquko, amaqembu amahle kakhulu eNingizimu Afrika. Amaqembu asabela ngokushesha ezidingweni zabantu. Ngakho-ke umyalezo wami kubo uthi ningakhapheli abantu, labo abanivotele. Ningafani nezinye izinhlangano.\u201d<\/p>\n
Izakhamuzi zasemakhaya ezithintekile ziyaqhubeka nokubhekana nezinselele ezifana nemigwaqo yamatshe engahambeki ngesikhathi semvula kanye nokuntuleka kwamanzi okuqhubekayo, naphezu kwesabelomali esikhulu sikamasipala. Ilungu le-APC laphawula, \u201cUma ungaya ezindaweni zasemakhaya ezijulile, kunemigwaqo eminingi yamatshe engafinyeleleki ngokwezinkathi zemvula. Abantu abakwazi ukusuka kwenye indawo baye kwenye, kodwa ngakho-ke sinomasipala onezigidigidi, isabelomali sezigidigidi. Bese kuthi okwesibili, sinokuntuleka kwamanzi. Lezi yizidingo eziyisisekelo okudingeka kubhekwane nazo.\u201d<\/p>\n
Amazwi kaGodi eza njengoba imiphakathi kulo lonke elaseMpumalanga iphakamisa ukukhathazeka okuqhubekayo mayelana nokuphathwa kabi kohulumeni basekhaya kanye nokulethwa kwezinsizakalo okungekuhle, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni zasemakhaya. Imikhankaso yokhetho lukamasipala kulindeleke ukuthi ikhulise ukubhekisiswa komphakathi kwezinqubo zokukhetha abantu abazongenela ukhetho kanye nezindinganiso zokuphatha zendawo ezinyangeni ezizayo.<\/p>\n
Abazongenela ukhetho lobumeya be-APC bazobe bekhankasela eDkt. JS Moroka, eThembisile Hani, naseBushbuckridge ngaphambi kokhetho lohulumeni basekhaya oluzayo.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
