Communications Minister: The Vula Boys control South Africa

ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa), 29 November 2010

ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa) is not surprised to learn that President Zuma has appointed the former Communications Minister, Siphiwe Nyanda, as his counselor or personal representative in Parliament. This is despite Nyanda’s controversial track record as Communications Minister with allegations of tender fraud.

The Vula Boys…

The Vula Boys refer to the ANC intelligence operatives and Communists who set up a top secret programme called “Operation Vula” or commonly known as “Vula” in 1986. The main aim of Operation Vula was to set up the necessary networks, financial and otherwise, needed to start a violent revolution or to violently overthrow the Apartheid regime.

Some have indicated in the past that Operation Vula was not a secret plan to violently overthrow the Apartheid regime as widely believed, but “rather a plan to smuggle freedom fighters into the country” (Secret world of Operation Vula, News24.com, Anesca Smith, 1 April 2004). Now you can fool some with that twisted logic, but it is known that most so called “freedom fighters” use or advocate violence as a means of achieving political and other goals (believe it or not, Madiba included!). Nevertheless, the purpose of this exercise is not to dig into much of the detail concerning Operation Vula or to look at the specific aims of the Vula Boys, it’s rather an attempt to provide a logical reason why the Zuma-led administration tends to support and favour the likes of Nyanda despite bad management and controversy. The same applies to the supporters of the Vula Boys such as Julius Malema who is known for inciting violence, especially against Whites. “Convicted of hate speech in March 2010, Malema occupies a notably controversial position in South African public and political life; having risen to prominence with his vociferous support for African National Congress president, and later President of South Africa, Jacob Zuma. He has been described by both Zuma and the Premier of Limpopo Province as the "future leader" of South Africa, although less favourable portraits paint him as a "reckless populist", and a "demagogue", with the potential to destabilise South Africa and to spark racial conflict” (Wikipedia).
