Durban - President Jacob Zuma on Sunday urged black people - also those who belong to parties other than
the ANC - to work together or risk having the country slip out of their hands.
Speaking to a crowd in his home province in KwaZulu-Natal, he said black people who belong to other political parties needed to go back to the drawing board and work together.
“They will take the country away [from] your hands or they will use others to ask you to vote with them,” he gave a thinly veiled warning, adding they needed to use their power to vote or continue to suffer.
He, however, made no specific reference to who would take the country from of black rule, but touched on the issue of land dispossession.
“There is an issue that black people need to rethink. The Land Act of 1913…We agreed that our land was taken way back in 1913, that is not true…It was in 16 and 17 something and even more in 18 something.”
'In Parliament you need the majority'
Zuma asked: “According to the Constitution, will we be able to fight poverty without land, when we are a people with no sense of belonging?

“Will we be able to create black industrialists without land? If you don’t register to vote you will always suffer because everything is done through legislation. And legislation is made in Parliament and in Parliament you need the majority.
He was not afraid to call on a higher hand either: “That is why I am saying, oh my God, black people you need to come together. You need to vote for another black person,” said Zuma.
“Black people are lazy to go out and vote because they do not understand the power that lies in a vote.
“Black people say, ‘I am tired’, whereas white people, even an elderly white granny, goes out to vote.”
Zuma was addressing more than 10 000 people at a drought relief Imbizo at the Melmoth sports grounds in KwaZulu-Natal.
Despite widespread calls for him to resign, Zuma received a warm welcome in his home province with thousands of ANC supporters pledging their support for him.
This was Zuma’s first public appearance since his televised apology to the nation regarding the handling of security upgrades at his Nkandla homestead.
