The #TKLB gives traditional leaders powers to do whatever they want with community lands without consulting community members ๐ #StopTheBantustanLaws
Even our absolute fave #Mufasa would be in violation of the constitutional rights of rural citizens by exercising the powers @CyrilRamaphosa is purporting to give traditional leaders by signing the #TKLB into law. #StoptheBantustanBills @StopTheBills

The signing into law of the #TKLB signals just how much contempt the government has for rural people. It reflects the belief that rural people cannot think for themselves, understand their own conditions & make their own decisions. #StopTheBantustanBills

LARC press release on the President's signing of the #TKLB into law - 4 parts. @RuralDemocracy @StopTheBills @LAMOSAONLINE @JohanLorenzen @LRC_SouthAfrica @TAmakhaya @HandsOffAmadiba @SonkeTogether @Mr_Mokgoroane @NelsonMandela @KnowledgebaseL @nombonisogasa @Tshisimani @PLAASuwc

The @MYANC govt must stop treating rural SAns as 2nd class citizens who are subjects of powerful/unaccountable traditional leaders. Using the same boundaries, identities, & structures created & imposed by colonial & apartheid regimes. #StopTheBantustanBills-like #TCB & #TKLB !โ๐พ
The #BantustanBills (the #TCB, #TKLB, #TLGFA) re-entrench the colonial & apartheid divisions created by those regimes. It relegates millions of rural SAns to second class subjects - with no access to the constitutional rights available to all other SAns. #StoptheBantstanBillโ๐พ

Rotterdam community handing over a memorandum at the Premier's office in Polokwane, Limpopo, complaining about Chief Mhinga selling their land without their consent @StopTheBills @RuralDemocracy #TKLB

Those supporting the #TKLB are confusing legalism with the rule of law.
This is a fundamentally unjust piece of legislation which transforms rural citizens into subjects.
#SouthAfrica
Bills like #TKLB and #TCB continue the colonial legacy of keeping black South Africans pariahs in the land of their birth! Pres @CyrilRamaphosa #StopTheBantustanBills @StopTheBills @RuralDemocracy @SonkeTogether @FHRRights @LRC_SouthAfrica @LHR_SA @AFRAKZN @NkuziD @ThisLand_Doc
Over 1000 rural citizens, civil society organisations and grassroots movements joined us to stop the @CyrilRamaphosa from signing the #TKLB into law and a complete overhaul of the #TCB. Women most importantly were at the forefront of this protest!
.@LarcUCT, a HBF partner, marched to the Union Buildings as part of the Alliance for @RuralDemocracy (ARD) to try stop President Cyril Ramaphosa from signing into law the two new โBantustan Billsโ. @dailymaverick gives the full report. https://t.co/8aGOvbZb2N

Indeed, if #TKLB is passed, a new stage of rural patronage will be birthed as Traditional Leaders will have unilateral power to enter communities into economic agreements.
This Bill infringes on numerous Human & Constitutional Rights in order to further rural exploitation.
@ParliamentofRSA @CyrilRamaphosa We hope the president will address the two problematic bills that have centred around the #stopthebantustanbills campaign. The #TKLB and #TCB are clear indications of the lack of political will and creativity that has usurped our government. @StopTheBills @RuralDemocracy
