And the Threats Begin

22 April 2019 By Alan Straton

In a release today the Land Party has threatened a National Shutdown ahead of the 8 May 2019 Elections.

Apparently they are miffed that the Eastern Capes Dagga Smoking King has not been released yet.

The Land Party said; “A national shutdown is on the table as many suggest that it is the only solution to bring government to its senses. We are currently engaging businesses as they are going to be affected and engaging many public servants who are not happy about low incomes and promotions. The Land Party is serious about the preparation of the shutdown and can assure many South Africans are taking part. The shutdown will be staged in different ways and different areas until the government releases our King. All these activities will be done peacefully but with the aim of applying a lot of pressure.

“The Land Party takes note of the presidential communication about the release of Thembu King Ah!! Zwelibanzi Buyelekhaya Dalindyebo. We do not take what the president is saying seriously and strongly believe that he is using the release of our King as political bait. This is another populist move from the immoral character who also lied to the people of Alexander about building 1 million houses.

“The Land Party will continue to lobby other nations and Kings to overthrow this government. This is a government that does not respect our monarchies or the independence of traditional houses. Land Party is in communication with many stakeholders, the names of which we can not reveal to protect them from the bullying politics of the current ruling elite. The Land Party can assure South Africans that the King’s subjects are mobilizing day and night to overthrow this government on the 8th of May.”
