THE ASS@SSINATION OF WITNESS D( MARIUS VAN DE MERWE) JULIUS MKHANAZI WHERE YOU AT THIRSTY MAN?

What this episode is about

The discussion centers around the enduring influence of the ANC in South African politics, positing that splinter parties like the EFF may still operate under the ANC's overarching agenda. It critiques the violent realities faced by citizens and questions the sincerity of political leaders like Julius Malema in addressing these issues, suggesting a deeper conspiracy to maintain control over the political landscape regardless of the apparent division among parties.

Key takeaways

• The ANC's grip may be eternal, cleverly masking its power through splinter parties in a political soap opera.
• Witness protection failures breed danger; indiscretions may cost lives but corrupt power structures endure undeterred.
• In a drama wrought with betrayal, the line between protector and predator vanishes, keeping the audience in suspense.
• Corruption thrives in silence; as whistleblowers fall, the script tightens around a dark agenda few dare to reveal.
• When witness testimonies become death sentences, the fight for justice resembles a high-stakes game of Russian roulette.

0:00 This place has always been rotten. You know what I was thinking actually earlier today about the ANC? They will never actually be they will always be in power. I think I could be wrong but please do chime in. What if Julius and now that's EFF now the MK all these parties that have branched out from the ANC are still covertly under the ANC and we just don't know about it because the ANC then picked up goody in due time these people are going to vote us out but we need to stay in some kind way. So let's start dividing ENC under different parties.

0:57 So either way, no matter what happens, our agenda as the ANC will live on forever. And these people in the new parties are still brothers and are still part of the just under different parties. It's never going to end. It's never actually going to end. Like I I was right. I was right. It's never going to end. Julius was saying to how dare they come into your house and put your kids and your wife on the ground. Julius, how do you feel now that fun's wife and I think the kids were there too apparently allegedly had to witness him getting gunned down? You're telling a criminal we hope that this will never happen. We're sorry to the criminals.

2:02 Apparently, allegedly, [clears throat] we're sorry this happened to you and your family. How about the families that are witnessing this kind of nonso? Are you going to say anything to them, Julius EFF, who I still believe is part of the ANC somehow someway. This is a game. I don't put anything past these people. They plan, they're patient, especially their masters. You know who? The ones I told you about that are very patient. You know who? Wake up. And even if you do wake up, as some of us have, there's nothing you can do about it.

2:51 They will take you out. They will pretend as if you jumped out of a building in France. They will dump bodies of cops. If you know, you know. Whoever gets in their way, they're going to take them out of here because why? They run the show. The whole entire show. I told you it's a soapy drama movie type situation. Generations passions. That's exactly what it is. He was taken out 2 days after the thirsty man had was done at the commission. And I look at him here. Look at him everyone. with me.

4:09 My love ever. I don't know if they're trying to flip the story and trying to make it seem as if it's not about his testimony in the Malanga Commission of Inquiry, but let's just face facts. That's exactly what it was about. That's exactly what it was about. There's a problem in this country.

4:50 Breaking news. A witness from the Majanga Commission of Inquiry has just been unalived in front of his wife and children in Brabban. According to reports, it's witness D who testified against just recently. This is what he had said. It was an operation that turned deadly. A robbery suspect was tortured until he died. And Muanazi then ordered witness D to get rid of the body either by throwing it on a minehaft or a dam. He ultimately threw the body in a dam in Nigel. This is according to witness D. The witness had said um all these officials had gathered at the scene and one of them said don't worry Muanazi is going to deal with this.

5:32 Arrives at the scene and gives the orders for them to get rid of the body. Muanazi admitted to being at the scene basically but says it was a big operation. He didn't intervene and he just spoke to somebody for about 5 minutes who told them about stolen goods they had recovered.

5:48 On preliminary investigation, we could manage to trace a Nissan NP200 white with a canopy uh through cameras that are within the present or vicinity. The witness D it's one of the the one who exposed or who came and exposed the incident where a person was killed and he confirmed during the conf the commission Madanga commission that he's the one who took the body and threw it in the dam and he indicated that he was working with certain people some of them did appear at Matlanga commission and some um are still not uh didn't yet appear.

6:46 Incident where I'm physically involved took place in 2022. It it's to a point that I am having to to do my own security as well. I'm having to do per sec runs, opsec runs just to ensure that myself is safe, my clients are safe because they might even target your clients. In terms of the community at large, um the blue light hijackings, it is continuing. We have people raiding premises without um a search warrant stating they are police officers. In this group there is civilians that's identifying themselves as police officers and they they um they just allow they just allowed to basically continue this and I mean then yeah where do we stop as a community?

7:41 Sincere condolences to the family and friends of Marius Fand. This should not have happened. Imagine putting your life at risk and eventually losing your life trying to expose corrupt people that you know very well would are not going to go to jail ultimately. Unfortunately, he paid the price with his life. Condolences to the family and friends once again. And I put this all on the doorstep of Omar Langa. Yeah. Now personally, he should have made sure these people his witnesses get a maximum protection and he didn't. All he did was just not to show their faces.

8:33 Yeah. and also changed their names in this stupid witness A, witness B. Dude, you did not even alter their voices.

8:40 Things are not looking very good for the Mazanga Commission of Inquiry. Witnesses are reportedly ready to pour out because they fear for their lives, especially after witness D now identified as Marius Fander Marva was unalived last night after returning home with his wife in Brabban. coming out with the truth of what has been happening. The rot that has been prevalent in our security cluster are now as they tell the truth getting killed themselves because this is going to deter many other witnesses from coming forward and I've also said that we must now focus on witness protection.

9:23 I will be addressing issues of witness protection and whistleblower with work that we are doing later in the statement. But I do want to say after this development I did interact with advocate Kumalo who is responsible for the security of the commission of inquiry uh the Madanga commission as we know it did indicate to me that Mr. MV was offered protection which he declined because he didn't think that he needed it and because he runs his own security company. Furthermore, what I want to say to the nation and also especially our media colleagues that we are in agreement that there is a need for us to review how the witnesses are testifying in the Matlanga Commission following this incident and also ensuring that the work is not compromised going forward. We will appeal to the public and to our media colleagues for an understanding because we do believe that at this point we must recognize all of us as patriotic South

10:37 Africans that public interest information can supersede or above be above the right to life. Dazzling diamonds. It seems like the circus is getting worseer. The Madanga Commission of Inquiry. It's getting dangerous over there. But I think that we knew it was dangerous from the jump even though we have said there are crazies over there apparently allegedly. But there's another different kind of crazy lurking. A very sinister dangerous kind of crazy. Today we found out that they took out witness D Marius Fand they eliminated him. He spoke about the goings on of the corrupt cops of the rot.

12:28 The rot that has been ongoing for a very long time. And this is what they do. They will take you out. I told you they will take you out. They will pretend as if you jumped out of a building in France. They will dump bodies of cops. If you know, you know. Whoever gets in their way, they're going to take them out of here because why? They run the show. the whole entire show. I told you it's a soapy drama movie type situation. Generations passions. That's exactly what it is. When they're sitting there, the witnesses, telling us what went down.

13:30 Sometimes it can be comical, but you are putting your life in danger. your life and the people that you love. Condolences to the family festive season they're going to spend few days before Christmas he's gone. He knew that his life was in danger. You know they say when your time comes you you know you start kind of saying your goodbyes or trying to make right. He was trying to get a hold of publications to spill more tea kind of tea, the important kind of tea about the rot in South Africa. And isn't it convenient that he was taken out and by the way he was taken out right in front of his family. Thank the good Lord they survived.

14:32 He was taken out 2 days after the thirsty man had was done at the commission. And I look at him here. Look at him everyone.

14:58 Oh my god. Now, I'm not saying that had anything to do with anything. Everybody's innocent until proven guilty. But I'm just saying, isn't it convenient? Because I don't believe in coincidences. However, I'm hearing out on these streets was speaking out about a lot of other things like the illegal miners. and many other situations. I don't know if they're trying to flip the story and trying to make it seem as if it's not about his testimony in the Malanga Commission of Inquiry, but let's just face facts. This exactly what it was about.

16:07 That's exactly what it was about. There's a problem in this country. And I promise you this guys, I'm not trying to be negative or anything like that. This whole situation is negative. I told you there's nothing no one can do about it because when it comes to a gun, no agn one way or another. right now. Apparently, they might have to stop with the public broadcast of the witnesses at the Madanga Commission of Inquiry because when he was giving his testimony, he was called witness D. His face wasn't shown um bloody blah blah blah, right? But the crazy thing is when you listen to his testimony, you could hear his voice. So, anybody that knows him would know that that is him. And then they even asked our thirsty man over there, Muana, whether or not he knew who witness D was. And he said, "No, no, I don't know who witness D is cuz they didn't want him to mention names because he was supposed to be

17:34 anonymous." But how anonymous are you really when you don't manga when you don't disguise the voice? How hidden are you? And apparently allegedly Vander said that he doesn't want any um witness protection type situation because he also has a security company. the security company business. Yeah, it's bad. And I know that it's bad. And I'm saying the rot has been there for a very long time because that's how my uncle passed away. He was part of those Secret Service whats and whats. And he met his untimely demise. This is years ago, right?

18:28 It's always been like that. always. This place has always been rotten. You know what I was thinking actually earlier today about the ANC? They will never actually be they will always be in power. I think I could be wrong but please do chime in. What if Julius and now that's EFF now the MK all these parties that have branched out from the ANC are still covertly under the ANC and we just don't know about it because the ANC then picked up goody in due time these people are going to vote us out but we need to stay in some kind way.

19:23 So let's start dividing ENC under different parties. So either way, no matter what happens, our agenda as the ANC will live on forever. And these people in the new parties are still brothers and are still part of the ANC just under different parties. It's never going to end. It's never actually going to end. Like I I was right. I was right. It's never going to end. I saw the president speaking saying that the people that have been speaking at the Madalanga Commission of Inquiry are telling the truth when it comes to the shady cops and what have you. Obviously, he knows, but it's it's all just games, playing games with people's lives.

20:23 I'm telling you, one day is one day and all of this will come crumbling down. And all of those lives that have been taken will they will get their vengeance vindication or what have you. This is so wrong. Doomed if you do, if you tell the truth, doomed if you don't. and they were always cuz they had made him get rid of that body, right? But he said that he felt like he didn't have a choice cuz if he didn't and it's just about one look cuz if he didn't then he just knew that he would be next. Doomed if you do, doomed if you don't.

21:20 on South Africa is a great place with great people but then it's rotten too with the rotten people about danger guys they they are threatening content creators everyone this message must just be everybody must just be quiet as unfair as it is they don't care these people will kill their girlfriends or their side pieces They will kill their wives. They'll probably even take their own kids out at this point if you get in their way because trust and believe it goes higher than these people. It goes higher than South Africa.

22:09 Everybody is here. Different cartels are here. It's bigger than what you think. It's bad. It's really bad. So, the circus continues. Are they coming back next year? How convenient. They would take him out right after everything was wrapped up for 2025, tying up some loose ends before they could come to the commission that are in that were interviewing the witnesses at the commission were kidnapped. That guy, I keep forgetting his name. The one that was saying to Umatalman, Hotman, he was kidnapped the day before he questioned Umatala.

23:00 So the way, as much as people want to say that he was just being sarcastic or what have you, no, he got the message loud and clear because his kidnapper said to him, "Oh, when are you from the Madlanga Commission of Inquire, you ask a lot of questions." They knew that he'd be questioning the next day. It was a nice warning, a soft warning to him and he got the picture loud and clear. He got the message loud and clear. And he when he was saying, "We would like to see you going back to your community to do the right thing."

23:32 He was saying to I know I got it was saying to how dare they come into your house and put your kids and your wife on the ground. Julius, how do you feel now that fun's wife and I think the kids were there too apparently allegedly had to witness him getting gunned down. [clears throat] You're telling a criminal we hope that this will never happen. We're sorry to the criminals apparently allegedly. We're sorry this happened to you and your family. How about the families that are witnessing this kind of nonso? Are you going to say anything to them, Julius?

24:21 EFF, who I still believe is part of the ANC somehow someway. This is a game. I don't put anything past these people. They plan, they're patient, especially their masters. You know who the ones I told you about that are very patient. You know who. Wake up. And even if you do wake up as some of us have, there's nothing you can do about it. They eliminate problems. That's what they do. And it just goes on and on in the circle that we live in. Horrible circle prison planet simulation that is not even real.

25:20 Anyway, condolences to the fundaments, his family, his friends, his colleagues, the people that work for him. One of his employees went to work this morning and he was like, "We were supposed to get paid today. He couldn't enter the premises because of what happened." You see how it affects so many people's lives and he knew cuz he was trying to get to the publication to say I got more to say. He was trying to tie up these loose ends. I hope somewhere somehow you got a chance to speak to someone and it's on record and it's going to be released. But also, as much as it will be released or what have you, doesn't matter. Nothing will change. They run everything. There's nothing you can do about it.

26:15 I promise you, it's a game. You're going to vote the out. The NC is affiliated to one of two, three of these parties. They're all working together, yafana, with the same freaking agenda. And it's going to get worseer and worer. Watch. [snorts] Anyway, I'll see you guys in the next one.
