### FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
**TRUTH AND SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT NOMINATES GENERAL KHUMALO FOR NATIONAL POLICE COMMISSIONER, DEMANDS ARREST OF CORRUPT SYNDICATES**
**PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA** — The Truth and Solidarity Movement (TRUTH) today formally announces its nomination of General Khumalo for the position of National Police Commissioner. In an era where public trust in law enforcement has worn thin, General Khumalo stands out as a beacon of integrity—the only trusted police leader capable of restoring law, order, and absolute accountability to our communities.
South Africa’s battle against systemic lawlessness requires a leader who cannot be bought, intimidated, or compromised. General Khumalo’s proven track record of disciplined service and unyielding commitment to justice makes him the definitive choice to head the South African Police Service (SAPS).
Under his leadership, TRUTH envisions a complete overhaul of the police force, shifting the focus from reactive policing to absolute eradication of high-level criminal syndicates that dismantle our economy and safety from within.
#### A Direct Ultimatum to the Crime Networks
The nomination of General Khumalo serves as a direct declaration of war against organized crime and institutional corruption. The Truth and Solidarity Movement explicitly demands the immediate arrest and thorough investigation of known network operators who have evaded justice for too long, including:
* **Katiso Molefe**
* **Morgan Maumela**
* **Serge Carbongo**
* **Cat Matlala**
* **Jabu Mthatha**
* **Stefan Govindaraju**
* **And all associated members of the entrenched Crime Network.**
For too long, these syndicates have operated with a sense of impunity, draining local resources, exploiting communities, and compromising state security. TRUTH will no longer stand by while criminal enterprises dictate the safety of our neighborhoods.
#### A Call for Radical Accountability
"The time for cosmetic changes in our police leadership is over," said TRUTH leadership. "Our communities deserve a National Commissioner who answers to the citizens, not to political factions or underworld bosses. General Khumalo is that leader. We are putting the entire criminal underworld on notice: your protection networks are crumbling, and accountability is coming."
TRUTH calls upon all community structures, anti-corruption organizations, and law-abiding citizens to support this nomination. Together, we will dismantle these syndicates and rebuild a South Africa rooted in safety, justice, and absolute transparency.

### THE TRUTH AND SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT UNVEILS RADICAL BLUEPRINT FOR A $5 TRILLION ECONOMY AND REJECTS DIVISION
**PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA** — The Truth and Solidarity Movement leadership today officially unveils its transformative economic framework aimed at accelerating South Africa’s industrial growth, expanding global trade networks, and fostering absolute national unity.
At the center of this vision is an aggressive shift toward total domestic production and the elimination of reliance on foreign-manufactured imports.
Under the leadership of the Truth and Solidarity Movement, South Africa will commit to producing every single item locally within our borders. This massive scaling of our manufacturing infrastructure will serve as the engine to supply competitive markets across African countries, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, positioning South Africa as an undisputed global export hub.
By achieving full industrial capacity, the movement is set on a definitive trajectory to build a robust **$5 Trillion Economy**.
Crucially, the movement's strategy relies on a progressive, global outlook that leverages international partnerships rather than isolating the nation. In the long run, every foreigner within our borders will be empowered to become a crucial asset to our growth—serving as our direct **Business Ambassadors** to bridge South African-made products with international trade corridors.
To achieve this level of unprecedented economic success, the movement emphasizes that social stability and unity are absolute prerequisites.
#### **"We say a definitive NO to Xenophobia."**
Progress cannot survive where division exists. The Truth and Solidarity Movement stands firmly against any form of xenophobic sentiment, asserting that true economic liberation is an inclusive project built on mutual growth, pan-African solidarity, and strong global cooperation. Together, we will manufacture a prosperous future for all.

I do not know why some argue so passionately about things they have never taken the time to read about. South Africa took Israel to the International Criminal Court for the genocide in Gaza, and now Israeli groups are funding anti-immigration groups to cause chaos in South Africa. They want South Africa to break up into small Bantustans, and they have openly written about it. But our people don’t read.
Many are running up and down the streets shouting “Abahambe” without realising that they may be being used to destabilise their own country. While they believe they are solving a problem, they may in fact be deepening divisions, damaging investor confidence, weakening social cohesion, and creating exactly the kind of instability that those who wish South Africa harm would like to see.
The tragedy is that people often become instruments of agendas they do not fully understand, convinced they are defending their country while inadvertently helping to weaken it from within.
If you are South African and you read widely, you would know that there are people in Israel and its state who are openly advocating for the breakup of South Africa along ethnic and regional lines. They want the Western Cape to become independent. They want KwaZulu-Natal to become its own country. They want the return of Bantustans. They want South Africa fragmented into smaller states.
This is not something that people are making up. It has been published in the Israeli media, as shown below. I have posted the link to the article so that you can read it for yourselves and understand what is being discussed.
Too many people comment from a position of ignorance because they have chosen not to read. We know what is going on. We know that there are individuals and groups pushing particular agendas regarding South Africa’s future. You cannot pretend these discussions are not taking place when the articles are there for everyone to read.
If you remain unaware of these debates, it is not because the information is hidden. It is because you have chosen not to read it.
Grant Gochin’s controversial article in The Times of Israel’s argued that South Africa should be peacefully broken up into several independent states based on ethnic, cultural, and regional identities.
He contends that the current South African state has become unsustainable due to corruption, poor governance and economic stagnation under ANC rule. They identify legitimate concerns and then use those concerns to advance their own agenda, knowing that many people do not read or research.
That is how manipulation works. You take a real problem, amplify it, distort it, and redirect public anger towards a desired target.
Drawing comparisons with the breakup of Yugoslavia and the independence of South Sudan, he argues that large multi-ethnic states created by colonial powers are inherently unstable and that smaller, more cohesive nations are better placed to achieve prosperity and accountable government.
He proposes referendum-based independence for groups such as the Zulu, Xhosa, Tswana, Sotho, Venda, and Tsonga peoples, as well as for the Western Cape. Gochin argues that self-determination is a recognised principle of international law and points to growing international support for Palestinian statehood as evidence that the global community increasingly accepts sovereignty claims based on the wishes of distinct peoples.
His central argument is that South Africa’s problems cannot be solved through reform alone and that peaceful fragmentation offers a more sustainable future than preserving what he views as an increasingly dysfunctional state.
The article does not advocate political change within South Africa’s existing borders but instead calls for the country to cease to exist in its present form and be replaced by multiple sovereign states.

SUBJECT: Truth and Solidarity Movement Demands Immediate Arrest of Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma Following Mossel Bay Killings
CAPE TOWN — The Truth and Solidarity Movement (TSM) expresses its profound horror and unequivocal condemnation regarding the brutal killings in Mossel Bay on May 29, 2026. The targeted violence, which claimed the lives of five Mozambican nationals and one South African citizen of Tsonga descent from Limpopo, represents a catastrophic failure of public order and a direct assault on human dignity.
The TSM views these acts not as isolated incidents of unrest, but as the direct consequence of the inflammatory rhetoric and coordinated actions of the "March and March" movement. It is evident that the climate of fear and xenophobic hostility cultivated by this group has escalated into lethal domestic terrorism.
In light of these events, the Truth and Solidarity Movement issues the following demands:
Immediate Arrest under the Terrorism Act: We call upon the National Commissioner of Police and the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) to effect the immediate arrest of Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma. Given the organized nature of the violence and the systematic targeting of specific groups, she must be charged under the Protection of Constitutional Democracy against Terrorist and Related Activities Act (POCDATARA).
Accountability for Incitement: The June 30 "deadline" issued by the March and March movement is a clear ultimatum for further violence. The state cannot remain a bystander while leaders openly incite vigilantism under the guise of "nationalism."
Protection of Vulnerable Residents: We demand that the Ministry of Police provide immediate and heightened security for displaced persons currently sheltered in the Western Cape and ensure the safe passage of those being targeted.
"The blood shed in Mossel Bay is the result of unchecked populism and hate speech," said a spokesperson for the TSM. "If the South African government fails to act against Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma and her organizers now, it effectively grants a license for further killings ahead of their June 30 deadline. This is no longer a protest; it is a threat to the sovereignty and peace of our nation."
The Truth and Solidarity Movement stands in mourning with the families of the deceased and reaffirms its commitment to a South Africa rooted in the rule of law and Pan-African solidarity.

## MEDIA STATEMENT: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
**TRUTH AND SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT DEMANDS ACCOUNTABILITY: CRIMINAL CHARGES FILED AGAINST DR. IMOGEN MASHAZI AND ZE NXUMALO**
**GERMISTON** – The era of unchecked looting and the flagrant abuse of public funds in the City of Ekurhuleni ends today.
The Truth and Solidarity Movement (TSM) has officially laid criminal charges of fraud and corruption at the Germiston Police Station against the former City Manager, Dr. Imogen Mashazi, and businessman Ze Nxumalo. This action follows compelling evidence of gross tender irregularities and the sickening misappropriation of R3.5 million of taxpayer money for a lavish private jet trip to London.
While the people of Ekurhuleni struggle with failing infrastructure, crumbling service delivery, and the crushing weight of poverty, Dr. Mashazi and her cohorts saw fit to treat public coffers as their private piggy bank. To spend millions on the opulence of private air travel while the residents we serve are denied basic necessities is not just a policy failure—it is a betrayal of the public trust and a criminal act of theft.
We will not sit idly by while the corrupt enrich themselves at the expense of our community. This criminal case is the first step in our relentless pursuit of justice. We are handing over detailed documentation to the South African Police Service and expect a swift, thorough investigation.
Let this serve as a stern warning to all those who occupy positions of power in this city: the Truth and Solidarity Movement is watching. We will root out every instance of corruption, we will hold every perpetrator accountable, and we will ensure that those who steal from the poor feel the full force of the law.
The gravy train has reached its final stop. The time for accountability is now.
