Latest Conspiracy Theory in Arms Deal Cover Up

Terry Crawford Browne, (arm deal critique drops a bomsbeshell and a new conspiracy theory. According to him Chris Hani , leader of the South African Communist Pary was murdered before he could expose the role that former defence minister Joe Modise played in the arms deal. And Modise didn’t die of cancer; he was poisoned, the Seriti Commission of Inquiry has heard. Crawford Browne said “I was told by Bheki Jacobs six weeks before Mr Modise died  that he was being poisoned, and that his death would be ascribed to cancer,”This is the first time such a theory has been exposed and is perhaps based  on the well-known tensions between Hani and Modise that go back to 1969, when Hani criticised in his "memorandum" top ANC official including Joe Modise on their high style living, while the "troops" were making sacrifices in the camps. Crawford Brown was not able to substantiate his statements.

Conflict between ANC in Gauteng and National Leadership about e-Tolls.

The Star reports that President Jacob Zuma deliberately snubbed the ANC’s Gauteng conference because of the party’s stance on e-tolls. The provincial ANC had formally invited him to attend and deliver the keynote address, as proof that the wounds of the ANC’s contested elective conference in Mangaung might have healed. But Zuma neither opened nor closed proceedings. Reports of a growing rift between Gauteng ANC leaders and the national leadership have persisted since Mangaung, exacerbated by Gauteng Premier David Makhura’s decision to subject the e-toll system to a provincial review, bolstering perceptions the provincial structure is defying the ANC national executive committee.
