Solly Mapaila has lamented how many white South Africans who sacrificed their lives in the fight against apartheid were not given enough recognition in the country.

Johannesburg - SACP deputy general secretary

Mapaila was speaking on Wednesday on the sidelines of the inquest into the death of former anti-apartheid activist and trade unionist Dr Neil Aggett, who died while in detention at the hands of apartheid security police. Aggett was found hanging in his cell at the John Vorster Square police station and an inquest into his death found no foul play.Mapaila’s attendance coincided with the testimony of ANC veteran and former Public Enterprises Minister Barbara Hogan, who also testified how she was detained and tortured at the same police station.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Desperately trying to find some new white members ?

This solly guy is a real puppet indeed

Whatever mapaila is smoking should be banned

Robert Sobukhwe warned the anc about these people and now we must single them out for a thank you. White privelege

Too many sellouts in this country

It's time to stop idolising all these freedom fighters, irrespective of their races, were they in it for recognition or for humanitarian reasons? Do we even have the better country they wanted yet? We have a worse off country & they're not bothered with fixing it but recognition!

After talking shit about Sobukhwe Solly shouldn't be taken seriously.

Just shut up

He must mention them ; hopefully he wouldn't include Craig Williams !The SACP have lost any semblance of principles; they support anyone near power even wen those people are totally; in deeds;against their policy!!

Singing for lunch yet again

When is the next elections of SACP so that you can remove this nonsense Just by receiving money from whites he now think he’s also white😳 I’m not SACP but members be careful where this driver is taking you, straight to the mountain

FF plus is growing day by day.

Party donations concerted Mapaila from socialist to capitalist, it's unbelievable. This Solly is not the one speaking, it's his stomach. Shame on his stomach.

Awachithwe la manzi inkukhu ibalekile😥

What level of sorcery is this 👀🙆🏽‍♀️

njivan77 Hahaha imagine how many of this foreigners gave sacrificed their life to take our land from us

Lol ey ngoba imali

I'm shocked like CyrilRamaphosa.

This one has los his mind a long time ago.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Rene69504384 In this country you must have these to say what Solly said. Everything For Fools and JZ's followers will not Debate as they are incapable but cuss and degrade

Hambonyela le kude

Umhlolo wethu 😦

When you've accepted dirty money 🤣🤣😂

solly ene ke sematla ra itse maan

He needs help, he is going to be worse since the corona virus is coming to south Africa.

Is the same as people from labour and those from micfa selling us the workers from the plots around Pretoria for penuts.we suffer alot because of our own leader that do not care about us and our griences due to the money they get from our employees

Solly is right.

njivan77 Have they given recognition to our fathers?

Voetsek lwabbish sellouts

LucidualLady MSM should reveal the association of top ANC leaders with commies. The policies ruining SA are peddled by them so it would unmask what’s happening!

LucidualLady Not much good they are dead!

😳bathong Solly wa ikutlwa mara

Sellout

Singing for his super whats new.

Poverty is a scary thing. SACP gave positions to people who were very hungry and didn’t know that the fighting for the cause wasn’t over yet. These are the guys who saw positions as the only way out of poverty. No leadership skills or whatsoever. Cosatu is led by the clueless

There is nothing left in this SACP shem

Lekota the second.

What did solly mapaila do during apartheid that makes him think his opinion are of national interest solly is just a goat.?

We forced to celebrate sellouts

These Men and Women played a great role inthe liberation struggle :Ruth First ,Bram Fischer ,Joe Slovo, Dennis Goldberg, Alan Patton, and Stephen Murray who was arrested in Matatiele in 1984 with Arms Catcher trying to arm the ANC camp in Lesotho.

Kkkkk hear hear

So there's one struggle above the other I thought we were in this together

House nigro

I wish Fischer, Slovo, Naude and Joseph were alive today. Just so they can see what a sh^thole this country has become . We could also laugh at them and tell them PW was right

How about black peoples like Sobukwe, Mothopeng, Masemola 🥱

People like mapaila are holding us back, total emancipation of a black child from slavery will never enjoy the fruit of democracy and will never see the sunset if we hav such lousy comments.

White puppy lol...

They are now called WMC

Uncle Tom

How many Africans who sacrificed their lives fighting against apartheid who are not recognized? Some are still inside South African jails even post apartheid regime. Every black South African who lived during apartheid time fought against it.

Is this guy high?

This black like me is very stupid,I have never seen one of them(white)living in the township. Instead of fighting the injustice that is happening to us by the very same people he is defending them. The very same people are against Africans today. Abo Hanekom Madoda?

So are we going to not recognize people like Derek_Hanekom because he’s white but he stood the course with us

Soon we will have to give recognition for those who fought the corrupt racist Anc out of Govt Things change just like our streets and city names

Singing for his super again

Time waster Sollyy...back waisting time.

Usegula ngekhanda lo Mapaila wenu

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 the SACP1921 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The level of stupidity on Solly is on another level

Is he talking about Yanuz Walus?

You see the problem is not WMC but darkies who are hungry and would do anything for a meal

This nigga has outsourced his thinking capacity. This is not even funny. It’s really sad

Uyahlanya lo manje

Ay sisenkingeni

Silly likes being liked to much

Take him to a mental institution ASAP

He is on stomach politics.He need more money to come his way now.

Saze sahlukumezeka!!!

Chris Hani is shaking on his grave

Hebanah

Ayi baqinisile uma bethi imali ayiluthezi olumanzi

Yes very true.Apartheid wasn't just a Black struggle..It was a struggle for humanity and humanity and dignity is race less.Many whites and Indians sacrificed their lives for a just cause..its high time our children be taught the whole truth and not just a chapter of the struggle

That is true

Soily malips

Shame, that is so sad....more like a circus clown performing for tips

This fellow is on something. Other day it was Sobukwe favoured by the White Apartheid Regime. Now it's Whites not being recognised. Yho. How many guerrillas who died for this country, yet not recognised?

Makayeke ukhotha ezanyeke zakhe zinkulu

Statistically wrong.

Solly SACP1921 what happened to you bro? So MKMVA was telling the truth? Ooxam bayaphaxulana, politics of stomach indeed.

I find absolutely nothing wrong with what Mapaila is saying

Hebana

Solely should give them recognition. I am sure no one will stop except maybe the whites themselves.

😂😂😂😂😂 now I have heard it all from these psuedo communists!!

True. But it’s not like it was 1000s of them.

I find absolutely nothing with what Mapaila is saying.

If Solly Mapaila is aware of such individual white people who joined hands with Africans to fight apartheid during those years,why can't he DISCUSS that with his ALLIANCE for REDRESS. Accordingly,Mapaila is of the ANC because they run around to campaign for ANC during elections.

'One true White freedom fighter is MK Veteran niehaus_carl. His contribution to the struggle is comparable to none. For me he's the greatest white liberation fighter.

Ngumgqundu uSolly rhaa

Kwafa uChris Hani sasala nalodoti😷😷😷

Niyabezwa Albany esihlale sinitshela ngabo bayaziveza...izinyembezi zomuntu omnyama aziweli phansi

I just...

Lol!!! Things you say when you're starving. SMH.

Kissing WMC ass manyan le chap.

Solly wa swabisa sham, keng o jele dipute?

well that's taken a little while to work out Solly. Why thank you

It's true, he is speaking about Dr Agget, Trevor Haddleson, etc. U were still then, u don't know anything except stealing. Do u k ow one of the three woman who lead the march to Union building was white. Why can't those people be recognised?

Ey sinengxaki ngoMapaila

His not a comrade this 1

Mention their names as they are negligibly few. Otherwise, all racist whites think that you are also talking about them and start urinate on you with that white savior delusion.

Who were they fighting, themselves 🤔

Hawu! Ay ang'sazi ke...

I am astonished that you black people can not see the good white people have doen. Now that a black person speaks up you want to crucify him. Just like there are good blacks there are good whites, & bad blacks & bad whites. We need to work together alone we will fail.

This Solly thing though Can't it just be muted

Now that ubaba is gone and they don't have anyone to attack, Solly has resorted to being a house negro

Ey futhi lomsunu

Is this guy for real i mean is he for real,with all the retrenchments and the coming of 4IR he wants to deal unrecognized heroes,faken unbelievable..

What is he on about this garden boy? 😩

Surely Ruth First is worth remembering? Or Neil Aggett? Or Rick Turner?

I was amused by the testimony of Comrade Barbara surely one needs to learn the history of our country before casting an aspersions

After 26 year's you's are only now recognizing it 😠😱😱😱, now that you's messed up 😨😱😠

He speak on behalf of white people now,

Pravin’s porn.

Lelikomanisi?☝️☝️☝️

Finding relevance Yes they fought but don't be optimistic

some of you here, were happy about him during Zuma 's tym....bangene Bra sol..

A very foolish man

What happened to communism?

The modern day paper tigers are going to insult Solly.

This dude 😂😂😂

This chap is now becoming a nuisance, we're already overcrowded with unwanted/useless statues & street names,buildings named after this bigots, for sure this guy is bewitched,aai.

Solly is finally coming out of a closet .

Seriously Mapaila said that? No wonder he has become so voiceless nowadays coz his job was to mobilize people against JZ, blaming ANC corruption on only Zuma, and now JZ is gone, NO extra money coming in! Given, can he give us names of those spies whom we don't recognize now!

Yes, and they will take away their homes EWC just because the are White.

Fake leaders and askaries are recognised and given opportunities..same opportunists are even discrimating against white and Indian freedom fighters

House negro

Mediocrity is all around us and it's not surprising that , after 25years of this so called democracy... the majority of black people are not economically liberated.....🙄

Nothing wrong with honouring all who took part in the struggle. Doesnt change the price of bread

What is this joker smoking?

I see MbalulaFikile doing the same as Solly Mapaila soon, the CR17 money is loaded within CyrilRamaphosa administration, proudly brought to you by the Ruperts and Oppenheimers hiding themselves in Western Cape

Albie Sachs lost his arm, Marion Sprag, was ostracized by her community, Gavin Wood, was Biko's friend, detested by apartheid government...Dennis Goldberg, served a lengthy term of imprisonment..Jeremy Cronin fought side by side with comrades for our freedom...

This is embarrassing😭😭😭

We have another lekota here

🤔

Leslima sasingene kanjani kwi politics

Shem....

Money talks xem. No more proof needed

Maybe he is right and all of you are just too ashamed of how pathetic the ANC and EFF are to admit it to yourselves?

Come and collect your brain we solly

The SACP is a joke. The sooner they disband, the better. Thers nothing socialist abt them anymore

Solly is better than Zuma and his friends he did not sell the country to the Indians it's TRUE many whites fought for the freedom of this country,and they kept our money I SA that's why you have big cities railway stations what ANC has done not even a single town .shame on u corr

Yoh! stomach politics creating so much amnesia to comrades.

Came here to read angry black comments. Was not disappointed

Sies

Terror Lekota the second

By who?

🤡🤡🤡🤡

Fake RET’s and fake anti WMC’s are the ones who like white things the most (insist on white teachers for their kids,stay in Lilly white surburbs) like LV’s Gucci’s etc and are the most corrupt

So too the coloured people...

I don’t take this one serious in politics, him and PG and Blade and Cronin and CR and Gwede and others who serve the capital. Political puppets make politics to be a boring subject matter🙈

Ijoo this idiot is mad

Mapaila wa lwala, serious. He needs help. He is turning into the male version of Vytjie Mentoor.

Blade is playing Solly and but the time he realized that it will be late, Solly is committing a political suicide.

Haibo Solly...stop it please😂😂😂😂

He's a known enemy of progress, i never took him serious. Him and that clown Terror Lekota are ine of the same.

One is not surprised. This is same guy who once insulted former Robben Islander and struggle hero, Robert Sobukhwe. The guy is a serious factory fault.

Sphukuphuku sento lesi.

This is exactly how Lekota unravelled....watch this space

😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣he banna. Jwale he is fighting for white people?

It was just a handful of white people and the number isn't of any significant.

😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Dancing for his supper

No, but that true. Solly's no fake revolutionary, he says it as he sees it. What he's saying is true though...

Stomach politics at plat here

Only 7.6% whites are unemployed, they own over 80% of the land & JSE! In the 20s SACP protested against black labourers at the mines, Mapaila is finally exposing SACP as a white supremacist clan masquerading as communists. eskom WednesdayWisdom

Looking at the comments to this article it’s clear that black people in SA hate white people. Which is cool - everyone has a choice. Let’s be enemies then rather than friends. See how well it works out for you in the end.

I don't RECOGNIZE this Solly anymore.

Yafa Cosatu

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This one must join Afriforum

Lol 😂 😂 😂, actually all South Africans who really fought against apartheid are not remembered, only sellouts are.

Solly Mapaila is samething with Blade Nzimande

useless Solly Ma-apile

Solly Mapaila must be owning hectors of land to sound like lekota

Mara Solly Mara. What a waste of a beautiful intercourse. This man is captured, I wonder what the handlers have against him. His dignity & reputation have diminished and his integrity was annihilated by his public utterances. I feel sorry for him, what a total political death!

Not Helen though.

Disgraceful!

😂😂🤣🤣🤣

I pray I don't come across such people because I'll sleep in jail

The communist party neh

This guys are killing SACP1921 ...their comments are soooooo shameful

Quoting Rupert

Solly Mapaila is starting to show signs of Coronavirus.... medication attention must be given to this man

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣This man will never come back he sell his soul to WMC they are giving him everything to protect their interest. This is not Solly, Solly that we know dead long time ago. We are left with sellouts

Someone please get Solly.

The apartheid narrative is tired.

We don't care about them they've been silent since CODESA, what have they done for black people since then ?

Mmadikgosi_23 House Nigga

Yaah neh Dolly Mapaila

Mmadikgosi_23 Solly Mapaila must stop smoking nyaope

Who in their right state of mind really takes this fool SollyMapaila seriously? Pravin's lap dog is useless.

ramalokot This ewallet politicians mara....

We all he has his handlers Derek_Hanekom and Barbara Hogan in mind,The Kathrada found and the SACP have long reached their sell by dates

Applauding a fish for swimming when its legit purpose was to swim?

Cris Hani is shaking on his grave, something fundamentally went on this organisation.

Mdizo money is nice.

Cr17 shameful and evil donations are evil even today

Bloody Quacks!

Vele he is Sorry Mampara.

He should never see deployment into government it would be disastrous alongside Tito and them who before deployment said all the right things and then Flip Flopped, not Solly are making sense at all....

Njani ngoku 🙆🏾‍♀️🙆🏾‍♀️

Living continuously in the past is going to help our present and future how?

😂😂😂

It's now abundantly clear that Solly Mapaila's brain is mentally displaced

A typical example of when consciousness leaves you, it doesn’t say goodbye.

Twerkist.

Sasingacelanga

The whole SACP1921 is on the payroll of the WMC 😢

Yeer lekaka yintoni maan

New uncle tom!

😳😳😳😳

Mnxim Solly ,slave mentality

I agree with this sentiment

Ruth has her own highway? What else? um...Bram Fishcer has a road in Durban? Here and there they are mentioned.

Solly Mapaila is losing it he must retire.

Something is wrong with Solly he is going the route of Lakota.
