DeKlerk: It is impossible to revoke FW de Klerk's peace prize, says Nobel Foundation

Durban - The Nobel foundation, the custodian of the Nobel peace prize which is awarded to outstanding global citizens, says it’s not possible to revoke FW de Klerk’s prize. Responding to a written query from Independent Media, the foundation said there was no way it could strip de Klerk of the prize.

The calls to strip de Klerk, the last apartheid president, of the prize gained momentum from Thursday last week when the EFF disrupted the State Of the Nation Address calling for him to be kicked after comments he made, that apartheid was not a crime against humanity. The party said de Klerk should be stripped of the award because he was an apartheid denialist and did not deserve to keep the award.

FW de Klerk's Nobel Peace Prize can't be revoked. Here's whyThe renewed calls for the revocation came at the 2020 State of the Nation Address when the EFF called for De Klerk to be removed from the National Assembly, as he was - in their words - 'a murderer with blood on his hands'. Nothing is impossible as the foundation rules dont say its impossible. Stop copy and pasting. Bt that noble was taken over nothing unless that foundation is also promoting his words It will only be recognized by other continents, here in Africa it doesn't exist anymore that noble kaak!😷😎
