ANCYL President Collen Malatji Defends Fikile Mbalula After Remarks
The African National Congress Youth League (ANCYL) President, Collen Malatji, has come out in defense of the party’s Secretary General, Fikile Mbalula, after his remarks sparked controversy.
Malatji said that Mbalula’s comments were taken out of context and that he was misunderstood. He said that Mbalula was merely expressing his views on the current state of the party and that his comments were not meant to be taken literally.
In a statement, Malatji said, “We must not forget that the Secretary General has a responsibility to ensure that the ANC remains united and focused on its mission. His comments were taken out of context and should not be seen as an attack on any individual or group.”
He further stated that Mbalula’s comments were meant to be constructive criticism and that he was merely trying to point out areas where the party could improve.
Malatji also noted that Mbalula had been a loyal and committed member of the ANC for many years and that his remarks should not be seen as an indication of any lack of commitment to the party.
Malatji said that Mbalula’s comments should be seen as an opportunity for the party to reflect on its current state and to make the necessary changes to ensure that it remains a strong and united force.
He concluded by saying that Mbalula’s comments should be seen as an opportunity for the party to come together and to work together towards a better future.
Malatji’s defense of Mbalula is a testament to the strong bond that exists between the two leaders. It is also a reminder that the ANC is a party of unity and that it is important to remember that we are all part of the same team.
The ANCYL President’s defense of Mbalula is a reminder that we should not be quick to judge or criticize one another. Instead, we should strive to understand each other’s views and work together to ensure that the ANC remains a strong and united force.
