Struggle sacrifices undermined by ANC broken promises: PAC

The Pan African Congress (PAC) in Gauteng says the African National Congress (ANC) government’s failed promises of land appropriation and better service delivery is an insult to those who lost their lives during the 1960 Sharpeville massacre.
The party held a Sharpeville massacre commemoration event at the Dlomo Dam in Sharpeville in the south of Gauteng.
Hundreds of PAC members gathered to pay tribute to the 69 people who were killed at the hands of apartheid police while peacefully protesting against unjust pass laws.
“We are here to commemorate our fallen heroes and stalwarts. Remember this day for us is not a human rights day as the majority call it. It is what we call the commemoration of our fallen heroes. Because without their blood we wouldn’t have attained the so called freedom that what we claim here in occupied azania so we are here to commemorate them and remember them and their families,” says PAC’s Gauteng Organizer, Jimmy Khoza.
However, despite the significance of the day, the PAC’s Mule Malibhutu, says he believes that the current government has not improved the lives of African citizens at all.
“The government of the day is an illegitimate type of government. It was never founded on the principles of African nationalism, it was never based on the African people getting their land back. So presently what we are seeing is nothing else but, it basically is the same thing. Things are worse because the land is not yet in the rightful hands or into the hands of it’s rightful people which are the african people.”
