Bhisho: Premier Phumulo Masualle has condemned the burning of former ANC President Oliver Tambo’s statue at the village of Nkantolo in Bizana.
“We bemoan this insensitive act and find it hard to believe that there are people who could commit such a crime, with such impunity, lawlessness and contempt during the month that we celebrate untarnished legacy of Oliver Reginald Tambo”.
Premier Masualle has welcomed the investigation by law enforcement agencies and is confident that the perpetrators of this dastardly act will be brought to book.
“ There are processes to be followed when communities have grievances and no matter the gravity of concerns, such lawless acts that spit and besmirch our history and our leaders must be condemned with the contempt they deserve”, concluded Premier Masualle.
