SACP General Secretary Address to the Congregation at a Graduation Ceremony of Mangosuthu University of Technology
I wish to take this opportunity to thank the University for the honour to address this graduation ceremony. Let me also take this opportunity to warmly congratulate and wish graduates well in the future. In addition we need to congratulate the parents, guardians, lecturing staff and management for continuing to produce the much needed skilled graduates in our country.

The Israeli ambassador who is the invitee, is pretty much oblivious of our views on the issue of the significance of these celebration, which in the light of the continued criminal occupation, has imposed extremely huge suffering on the Palestinians.
