Whereas the IFP is currently plagued by internal problems as a result of anarchic forces bent on sowing confusion and despondency which threaten the existence of the party
Whereas these forces seek to consummate the old campaign launched in the 1980’s by the ANC-SACP-UDF-COSATU axis to destroy and wipe out Inkatha and its President
Whereas the extinction of the IFP would have a negative impact on the survival of democracy in South Africa
We, the women gathered here today and forming the IFP Women’s Brigade, hereby declare before South Africa and the world that:
Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi is the people’s watchdog and bastion against South Africa’s deteriorating towards the tyranny of the majority and abuse of power
South Africa therefore still needs the strong and moral leadership of Prince Buthelezi to guard the hallowed values and gains of the struggle in the midst of opportunistic, immoral, covetous and weak leadership threatening the survival of our democracy
Divisions and poisonous attitudes currently prevailing in the IFP threaten to derail the IFP from this very important task assigned to it by destiny
Current problems within the IFP demand strong and decisive leadership of Prince Buthelezi to steer the party until there is stability
We, therefore resolve to:
This we declare and sign on this 4th Day of September 2010
at the IFP Head Office, No. 2 Durban Club Place, Durban, KwaZulu-Natal
