Tourism minister says she has a right to freedom of speech.

AMANDA KHOZA and KGOTHATSO MADISA

ANC heavyweight Lindiwe Sisulu has remained defiant amid calls for her to be hauled over the coals for a controversial opinion piece criticising the constitution and black judges. In a brief interview with the Sunday Times yesterday, Sisulu said she had a right to freedom of speech because she fought for this country.

ANC treasurer-general Paul Mashatile told journalists that Sisulu, the minister of tourism, is scheduled to appear before the ANC integrity commission and will attend a meeting with Deputy President David Mabuza...A subscription gives you full digital access to all Sunday Times content.Registered on the BusinessLIVE, Business Day or Financial Mail websites?

You fought for this country to neglect your portfolio to uplift poor people, you live in Porsche suburbs but failed to afford people basic housing. You must retire now.

So she was sleeping when Guptas were stealing left and right and centre while she was also in cabinet and fought for this country,shame on you

That's why SA is rapidly acquiring a failed state status like all other African states that are led by freedom fighters, for an example our neighbours in the North 💔

She has a serious problem☝️did she help Maluti-a-Phofung at Free State🤔

And she's absolutely fucking right

Can someone please explain me 'freedom of speech' does it encompass infringing on the right of others? Is her highness Lindiwe Sisulu within her right when calling judges 'house negroes'?

Only idiots, clever blacks n boers will want her not to have freedom of speech, well they must think again cause this country constitution states freedom of speech prevails 4 all.

You fought for ANC & yourself, not SA, otherwise you would help not keep taking from SA people, so lady don't talk sh1t

DUTY to implement actions articulated in the Public Finance Management Act and on that leg she has failed with flying colours and therefore here right to freedom of speech has no merit because in her we are dealing with schizophrenic imbecile

Beautiful woman this.

She's very correct

What a touch!!

Bullshit her parents did

Leave Mme Lindiwe alone, fckn stratcom rubbish

Which is enshrined in the same constitution

Yho hayi kathule

Ziyakhala!! Kubo!!

Whatever magogo

She fought for AnC not the rest of us. We are still fighting their corrupt , short sighted greedy old outdated comrades. Yeyi they must have Old age ANC parliament to play not the real country.

She is correct. We cant be nursing feeling of those who hate truth forever. There are some fools out here that thinks SA constitution protected us all equally. FRAUD!!!!!

She does have the right

What did LindiweSisuluSA fight for? As Water and Sanitation minister her time was basically useless... spitting on the family name and for what? SMFH...😑 Couldn’t fill daddy’s shoes... Like your comrades, you have issues... you puppets should stop acting like SA owes you...

People who fought for this country are those u left behind when u ran to exile

She must retire man and stop talking about stupid freedom

SA is a democratic country she also have a right to freedom of speech and expression

She is mad and useless

The irony and hypocrisy, a right contained in the very document she slaughtered. That's like blaming Eskom for having no power when you haven't flipped the light switch.

ANC demands answers!!! What answers? She is right she has a right to express her feelings

After almost 30 years, she only realised it now that she has freedom of speech

She is right and there is no discussion about it

True hey.

True.

She fought for our Freedom.. She has also that freedom of speech. We aren't gonna listen to racist white criminals who must return back to Europe where they belong. Madafakas.

Yes she had,you should agree with her. But we are busy with CJ issue here.

She can't fight her way out of a wet paper bag.

The same applies to statutory force Military Veterans as defined in the Military Veterans Act. Why fight over history that cannot be reversed. Embrace the contributions. GovernmentZA ThuliMadonsela3 PresidencyZA DDMabuza ParliamentofRSA VeteransZA Make some noise

LindiweSisuluSA your dad fought you stole

And that’s the truth.

Freedom of speech is different from hurling insults wena man hay.... kanti unjani

What a joke

Ikhona ne “right to freedom of thought”. I wonder when would anyone enforced that.

Remove this people from power by voting them out and see what will happen to their arrogance and the hawks and NPA must doing their Job

Where?

And we all know that

Fought where? That's why you feel so entitled ne magogo

You fought for this country so you could give it to Cuban engineers. Have a brain to think for South African engineers, that's what patriotic freedom fighters would do

Very true

Yes , she was sending those long missiles from exile to fight for this country

Freedom of speech my foot, she carries LV bags wears expensive clothes, drives luxury cars because of the same constitution which put her in parliament and only now she thinks it’s ok to talk such nonsense 🚮🚮🚮🚮

Ja right

But has she the right to grow and nourish an IODIOCRACY? NO!

LindiweSisuluSA fought for fucken corruption and foreign nationals that all over here? Wa nnyela

Of Course Just don’t put Ur Foot 🦶🏿 in it!!

Not while you a paid Civil servant who swore to uphold the Constitution- resign and then practice free speech as an individual!!

VoetsekLindiweSisulu

So?

Fought for who. Faakkkk

'I fought for this country'... exactly what are your credentials to make this claim?

A lot of people fought for this country and they aren't demanding a cent..so she participated in the liberation struggle in order to insult the Judiciary. Princeling mentality

The Sisulu princess herself, the heir to the ANC throne 🤣😂😂

Freedom of speech but not freedom of consequences

So then fokoff this is also freedom of speach!

She fought for herself enrichment. It’s has been all about herself. She doesn’t give a damm about others let alone freedom. Me myself and I. No heart in this soul

All women in SA abuse freedom of speech

Se qhele kakhulu

So it ONLY works for you? What a joke.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yes she fought the country but she's not entitled to it.

But at least she benefitted from this Constitution ,she wears designer clothes and live in a big house

If that's the truth, who did fought with or how many did kill that makes you believe that you fought for this country. Just sit down on your own and think deep for the real truth. You're taking way too much credit and rights than necessary.

She fought for the country now she owns it's. It's nice to have a Cde state of mind. Owning a whole country

She fought to destroy South Africa

If you attack the establishment then u have my blessings but don't come and tell us about freedom of speech nonsense of which you entitled to but you've been at this since 94 and you never raised these issues. All I see is electioneering. Captured people tend to pose as saviors

And she swore an oath to upholding the Constitution

I know we all probably must have heard about Bitcoin but don't know how it works, I tried it in a week ago by a man who recommended me to Leticia_thomas4 on Twitter She guides me through and i made a return of R15500 after a week of trading, connect with her

Let the other parties take over, I'm tired of hearing fighting for this and that.

Of course she does. Babonise wena MaLindi LindiweSisuluSA This time go for the Banks and Mines🤗🤗

I'm sharing this because this was exactly how i saw so many posts about William church and how he was helping individuals with their trades and i decided to give it a try and luckly it went well, Contact him via his profile link below 👇👇 williamchurch09

Her credentials speak volumes ...she has a right

She's telling the truth.

Yes minister. We are awaiting another opinion piece. This time write about lying and forgetful judges.

Just because your father fought for this country then you think you have all the right to attack the judiciary?

Poor LindiweSisulu She was never the tallest tree in the proverbial forest. All entitlement without any merits & achievements CyrilRamaphosa RonaldLamola

This granny who says she fought for this land insinuate that she is entitled to hurl insults to other organs of state unprovoked n call it freedom of speech? Such freedom is not unlimited

And she's correct.

I don’t know what’s going on in this lady’s head... but it’s a lot

Racists also have a right to freedom of speech.

Your parents fought for this country, I wonder if she knows the smell of teargas

So now she thinks we owe her

I know we all probably might have heard about Bitcoin but don't know how it works, I tried it in a week ago by a man who recommended me to Julie_fx_trader on Twitter she guides me through and i made a return of R66,000 after a week of trading, connect with her Julie_fx_trader
