If Credo Mutwa was not an apartheid apologist, one of his students must explain why he accepted an invitation from apartheid spy Lucas Mangope who gave him a home in Lotlamoreng Dam after he fled the angry African youth in Soweto, writes Thato wa Magogodi

When a great icon passes on, we often suffer from this toxic analytical dyslexia of not giving a balanced account of their memory because we want to kindly allow those that consider him family to mourn or alternatively, we suffer from being blind hero worshippers of the deceased.

To his credit, Credo Mutwa warned us against the colossal reptilian agenda which Khonsu Nok contends was not a literal reference to whites as reptiles but to the reptilian part of our brain, the R-Complex, and the need to rise above it, as otherwise we would be worshipping our lower self. Furthermore, no amount of critical analysis can take away the fact that Mutwa, who some revered as a profound Zulu Kemetic High Priest, was an insurmountable multi-disciplinary Africologist who opened our eyes as Africans to a lot of history and complex philosophical questions that has left us wiser in the voluminous pages of the eight or more books that he penned.

Why has no one disputed with evidence the assertion by Sibusiso Buthelezi that Credo was used on Radio Zulu to criticise the protest against Afrikaans as a medium of instruction in our schools as a basis for that historic uprising? A true leftist would have taken over the ruling party and we would have been nudged in a more genuine leftist direction as opposed to the radical economic transformation pretenders using this narrative to blindfold the system and loot from our people.

Ke sematla se feng se se kwetseng this article? Tlotla Kgosi Mangope please. That man did a lot in 17 years than what we are subjected to rainbow nation. O nagana bo Cyril, Tokyo, Patrice, Gumedes, Radebes etc ga ba je le makgoa Kgosi Mangope ke SEAPARANKWE

Black people must punish all white owned businesses that talk bad about our Africanicity .

Why not ask if Jesus was so holy why was his first miracle performed in a party and his first miracle was to make people more drank. Hands of our African prophet

What amazes me is that your president is woke and doesn't want you to be woke. Last night he indirectly acknowledged that god is a black woman. Your journalist must do proper research before they upset our ancestors please. Be careful Thato

helenzille we children of Ntate Credo Mutwa wants to have a word with you. You wanted him dead now he's dead. Please respect our ancestor before we deal with you spiritually. This is another way of killing Ntate Credos legacy and guess what auntie, we're woke. We see you

Thato gets your facts right, the very same mangope chased Ntate Credo away from his home in letlamoreng after he predicted that mangope will be overruled. You're just a journalist who wants to make sales for city press but please respect the dead. Do some research on Ntate Credo

Write somebody who doesn't understand the spirituality some of the things either u like it or not they are bound to happen

This is bullshit.

The thing is he never saw anything. By believing that he did, makes you wonder about all these questions, trying to find a reason for his actions. But the simple truth is that they don't see anything, him, all these prophets and sangomas. It's bullshiting on a spiritual level😂😂

Vusamazulu Mpumelelo Mutwa was not a puppet most of homeland leaders had a relationship with liberation org leaders Oliver Tambo n Gatsha Buthelezi; Holomisa n anc leaders ACTUAL MUTWA WAS NOT POLITICIAN HE WAS AFRICAN SPIRITUAL LEADER; PROPHET; WRITER; ARTIST

Bantu Holomisa did the same for Chris Hani and others in the then Transkei....need I say more. Dont manufacture enemies, we want to take u and the paper u represent serious.

Leave Bab Credo alone mnxxx May his soul rest in peace

He is not here to answer you, you are a coward and seeking fame in the wrong way. Delete this nonsense...

Your logic says: If Residents of Bophuthwatswana were not apartheid apologist, they should have left Bophuthatswana! Thato wa Magogodi - you do write for irritate people to read you docs but you give no bone to your articles! mxm

Your desperation stinks

MsAfrolicious bathong 😳😳

ms_tourist wow whats here

Go to hell

Even in death a black man must suffer. Dontbuy

There is no critical analysis nor balancing of views. This is just questions with no logic at all. Where is this fool that wrote this rubbish ?

Small minds discussing the dead

This article starts with a promise to be 'critical' and calls 4 'balance' wen evaluating lives of our heroes. It fails the very test that it has set 4 itself. Instead of being critical, it casts doubts on Credo's integrity, gifts and talent. No fact, just questions ...

hle hle hle, ANC was anti Muthwa 👏🏾(claps once)

I'm going to burn a black candle and call your name 12 time wena Thato Magogodi.

Shame on to publish this rubbish.

Why didn't you ask him when he was alive? What are you trying to gain out of this?

Being from North West, Mangope did way better than the Anc, we live it, see it everyday

How old are you?

Is it true that Mangope was a spy? Mangope did far better than the ANC for his people.

BECAUSE EVIL PEOPLE LIKE Thato wa Magogodi WANTED HIM DEAD. ACCUSED HIM OF WITCHCRAFT. THERE'S A VID ON YOUTUBE WHERE HE EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED AND HOW IT HAPPENED. BLACK PPL WANTED HIM DEAD

English excites him

What a nonsense article.Holomisa built that Qunu house for Mandela.Chris Hani was flown by Transkei Airforce.Blade Ndzimande was staying in Holomisas house.Were they all apartheid apologists

Thato must stop disrespecting Ntate Credo.Please

Thato o batla go nna famous ka Ntate Credo.

Thato o batla go loiwa fela

Isn't Hellen Zille who said He was a spy, which lead to people burning his Zone 2 Diepkloof house 🤷‍♂️ Anyway

This is bullsh*§t

Some Say Credo Was A Spy, Now Mangope Was A Spy? 🤔

Tautona Kgosi Lucas Manyane Mangope was a great leader who did more for his people in 17 years, than what this new democratic South Africa has been doing for the whole 25 years. There is simply no comparison.

You should first ask Helen Zille why he wrote false news about what credo said during the meeting which he was addressing his predictions of 1976 uprising

I have only this to say to Thato: Small Things Amuse Small Minds.

Nonsense

We seriously don't have a clue as to who is our enemy. 😡. We have lost respect of our elders trying to appease those that came with Humanity and destroyed ubuNtu. If you never knew, spirit souls are beyond dirty politics. You can't divide us any more.

Wow, you people are on a mission neh?

Your so called journalist Thato is talking kak. Why didn't s/he raise this when ntate Credo was still alive? Why not engage ntate Thato directly? What is this piece intended to achieve or portray? Does this Thato know how the relationship between Credo and Mangope was and ended?

Meaning Apartheid spies were better than the ANC loyalists/deployees looking and comparing affluent Bophuthatswana under the ex-apartheid spy and the ravaged Bop under current ANCrooks kleptocratic regime

'Ntsiki's shocking letter to Ramaphosa is disappointing and uncalled for' - Thami MazwaiFormer journalist and anti-apartheid activist Thami Mazwai has distanced himself and his wife from a scathing open letter written by his daughter Ntsiki to president Cyril Ramaphosa. I wonder why is she always given attention? There really is nothing shocking there. ntsikimazwai just saw an opportunity to seek attention that's all... how can a normal person say she's not scared of Corona virus while we've seen the damage this virus in countries like USA with their rich economy? She must sit down.

Coronavirus lockdown ‘differs’ from apartheid, says SA governmentICYMI: Jackson Mthembu has denied that the current nationwide lockdown is akin to apartheid’s draconian laws. Instead, he emphasised that apartheid was about destroying lives and the lockdown had been implemented to save them. Day3 stayhome lockdowninSA Yeah. Pull the other one. Dictate to me what I can buy, that I can't see my child, that police can stop and search me with no cause. That I need to carry a pass with me to travel. That's straight up totalitarian apartheid style thuggery. Not destroying lives? Whay about the small home businesses who WILL NOT receive funds from the government? They can't work. No work=No Pay=No money=No food. More than companies will close their doors, more unemployment. But, yet the government had 25 years to fix this country. They shouldn't even explain People are just being ignorant and stubborn
