South Africa Calls For New Land Reform

Gugile Nkwinti

Citing the economic recession hitting South Africa, Rural Development and Land Reform Minister Gugile Nkwinti told Parliament yesterday that a new model for “land reform” must be created to replace the current “willing buyer, willing seller” program.

Nkwinti said it did not seem possible that the state could come up with the estimated R71bn needed over the next five years to buy land for redistribution.

‘We will investigate less costly models,’ Nkwinti said, adding that the government would start a dialogue with ‘those who control land resources’ to look for an affordable way of expediting land reform.

A proposed forced land Expropriation Bill was defeated last year after a diverse coalition stood to oppose it.

    "Reform" or "theft"?

  2. Vinny says

    Wait. So he wants what? "Unwilling seller, unwilling buyer"?

    Gugile – "I'm taking your land"

    Land owner- "But, it's mine!"

    Gugile – "YOU! Yes, you. Your taking this land!"

    Passerby- "But, I don't want it."

    Gugile – "You'll take it and like it! Now, start growing crops!"

    Passerby- "But, I'm not a farmer and don't want to be a farmer! I want to be an American Idol!!!"

    I am in favor of land reform. The white man is not indigenous to Southern Africa. He should not now be able to hold such a precious comodity as land. It should rightfully be returned from the usurpers to the original inhabitants of South Africa. Let the Boers be sharecroppers.

    Vinny, who said many a true word is spoken in jest?

  5. lilamae says

    Marxism at its finest! Why hasn’t Obama thought of this? Oh, yeah, hasn’t had a break from making speeches tearing down the U.S. abroad.

  6. The Great Frank says

    I suppose this moron is an admirer of Chaka who murdered over two million bantus!

  7. The Great Frank says

    On our “Wall of Honour” in the TRP studio Die VierKleur, the Flag Van Die Republik Van Suid Afrika, and Die Oranje Vrii Stat Flag are proudly displayed! Die VierKleur Sal Wapper Weer! And who said that Die Bantu are “indigineous” to Suid Afrika? They moved in from the north and STOLE the land from the other blacks. Die BoereVolk came and they didn’t meet Die Bantu for two hundred years later. A typical bantu nonsense! Take what Die Boere have built and replace it with another Rhodesia! When they can create a modern state like Die BoereVolk did, then come back and talk! Daar Is Maar Een Volk, Die BoereVolk!

    Zenzile
    The true South African is the bushmen of the kalahari. You and your bantu kind came from further up north in Africa. By your own words you are also disqualified from owning that land.
    Strange thing though is that the white man worked hard saved his money, bought the land and now you want to just take it from him instead of doing what he did. What do you then say to those who are soon to be your new masters, the Chinese, they are coming and they have their plans for South Africa. And take note: if and when the Chinese take control of that land you will be begging for the white man to come back.

    also, look up north to Zimbabwe, do you still think that it is a good idea?

    ‘We will investigate less costly models,’
    Yes, like the Mugabe model or perhaps the Stalin method of agrarian reform…

  10. Zenzile Xhoisan says

    The Boerevolk could not have produced a modern state without the free sweat off the backs of the indigenous black men of South Africa, the Xhosas and bantu tribes after they murdered the Zulus. What Chaka did was an internal affair of the black South Africans and not something to discuss with white devils, esp, with armchair Boeres screaming into the mics of an internet show with 20 listeners.

  11. Johann says

    Zenzile, is it the same “free sweat” which made the blacks in South Africa the most prosperous of any African country?

    The same “free sweat” which brought their life expectancy to levels equal to European standards in the 1980′s? That same life expectancy now lower than that of people from Iraq under the communist ANC bafoons?

    Funny how the rest of Africa came piling into Apartheid South Africa for their share of the “free sweat”. Seems that you aren’t being truthful here, or your cousins were more mentally challenged than you to be running towards the danger zone.

    Of course the black savages never killed each other and never sold each other as slaves – only the white man did that. And of course black savages still don’t murder, torture and rape each other – they just kill each other with such frequency in tribal Africa that special terms are coined for that, like “Xenophobia”.

    Yes, the white man surpressed your education too – the fact that the bafoons burnt down their own schools faster than the evil white government could rebuild them had nothing to do with the fact that these idiots remained educationally challenged.

    The same evil white man who eradicated diseases like Cholera and Maleria, only for your mad uncle across the Limpopo and your thieving, corrupt cousins in the ANC re-introducing them to Africa, because they would rather steal than maintain the infrastructure the evil white man developed.

    That same evil white man sent you to bed with a full belly, while your pot-bellied cousins in Nigeria died of hunger in spite of a wealth of oil resources.

    But here’s a challenge to you – let’s meet up next time I’m in South Africa. Bring your friends and come take the land I still own. I won’t even bother with opening the gun safe, because I can see your Xhoisan melanin arse disappearing into the setting African sun when I carefully insert my size 14 shoe between your butt-cheeks…

  12. HODD says

    didnt the black man commit ethnic cleansing and genocide on the kalahari bushmen of southern Africa?

    What a bunch of hypocrites the Bantu are

  13. Joe from Jersey says

    Commie crooks.

  14. The Great Frank says

    He sounds like a certain White guy who likes to post on our site and cause controversy. He uses different names in conjuction with the post. TRP has been acknowledged by Die BoereVolk. And yes, he’s not from Suid Afrika. Notice how he spelt, “Boeres”. For a “Xhosa”, he didn’t mention the other Bantus that were slaughtered by Chaka. And if he were a “Xhosa”, he’d know that they hate the Zulu, and call Chaka, “Chaka the butcher!” Phony post, don’t get worked up over this moron. Oh, and he even got our listenership wrong!

    Once again, The Great Frank is correct. This is known-troublemaker Alley Opp/ETB, who also calls the show as “The Liberal Avenger”. Someone has also alleged that “Arty”, who is anti-Solutrean, is also “The Liberal Avenger”.
