Be proud of your culture

THE hullabaloo about Masimanyane SSS at Ndakana (School choir’s naked stage dance shocks, DD May 29) refers.

The entire community of Masimanyane should be proud of themselves for revealing the calibre of leaders we have in our province.

It is a shame to assign a team to investigate an open cultural activity, amid all the genuine scandals in this province.

To the principal, staff, pupils and SGB members, I say carry on with your work and ignore those who appease their masters (foreign cultures).

Be proud you are black. When the team from the premier arrives, girls, put on your inkciyos and boys, you put on your amavotsho to teach the team a lesson on our culture.

Ndiyoyika ndifuna ukuthi zemka iinkomo magwala ndin [Dare I say don’t be cowards]! This is the time for all cultures to be applauded and respected. What a shame the pronouncement from a respected office that a team is to be dispatched to investigate a cultural event.

Instead of rewarding the school for celebrating its roots. The premier has to apologise to the MEC for education, the school and the entire province. — Thangana ka Muluse, via e-mail
