Nelson Mandela: The Rise of Madibaism.

Dear President Cyril Ramaphosa. Hope you're well. Ever since the removal of former President Thabo Mbeki by the former President Jacob Zuma aligned faction that included the fallen from ANC grace leaders such as EFF CIC Julius Malema as well as the former COSATU Secretary-General and now SAFTU Secretary-General Zwelinzima Vavi, our country has been exposed to a leadership vacuum. You were punted as the most suitable person to fill this vacuum after the wholesale of our country to the Gupta family. The advent of the State Capture Commission of Inquiry brought with it the hope to many South Africans that justice would be served and that all those that were involved in handing our sovereignty to the Guptas would be prosecuted and probably sent to jail. But that has proven to be an exercise to lull the people into forgetting. The advent of Covid19 has intensified notion that nothing will come out of State Capture Inquiry. Most of our citizenry didn't know what Stalingrad was un...

I had thought of removing all of the offensive posts that I've ever posted on all my online platforms such as Blogger, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and as a guest on other peoples platforms. I had thought of taking down my books that may have offended others especially those that are on www.amazon.com and other platforms as well and start afresh on a clean slate and on a positive note. That would be a great and honourable thing to do to ease my conscience which would make me feel like a brand new person. On second thought, I decided against it. It seem like a coward thing to do. Cowards run away and don't own up to their actions. I'm a Madibaist and must suffer the consequences of my actions or inactions. I asked myself this question, 'what would Nelson Madiba Mandela have done if he were in my shoes?' Let us remember that Madiba spent almost 3 decades in prison. He could have escaped and ran away if the opportunity had presented itself. Maybe an opportunity did p...

Today I was going to speak about '#Madibaism and Heritage' but I changed my mind and thought "hold my beer," people can't eat Heritage. People want food and drinks and how can Heritage provide them with such commodities? You can't eat Heritage and thus, even if it defines who you are, it must take a backstage for now. Today I'm going to talk about money. Yes, you heard me right and did I just hear you gulp with greed? Nelson Mandela went to prison for 27 years and when he died, he left his family members more than R9 million in liquid cash and property in his Will. For most people, more importantly, South African government employees to amass just R1 million in pension fund they must have at least a 20 years service under their belt. The government is also one of the external locus of control that keeps people poor with meagre pensions and social grants that keep people dependent. What will a 60 year old do with R1 million? Petrol price is rising alm...

Hello again. Hope you are all well. Previously in the first publication of my blog I tried to introduce you to Madibaism and hope that what was covered therein was to your satisfaction, however, if you should feel that you need to know more, please, don't hesitate to contact me at jabulaninzi@gmail.com or through the comments box below. Also, the subject of Madibaism is covered more in my book titled Nelson Mandela: The Rise of Madibaism and is available at the link at the end of this blog. With that said, today I want to focus on the components of Madibaism and how to become a Madibaist. It's without doubt that prior to his imprisonment, Nelson Mandela was an intelligent person but without doubt, he was not so much of a genius. A genius is someone with exceptional intellectual or creative power. The fact that Madiba was an intelligent person is evidenced in his speeches, more especially the famous one he gave before he was sentenced to prison. A genius always seek co...

Hello everyone. Welcome to Madibaism. Every thinking over the last centuries has been based on the name or teachings of its supposed leader such as Buddhism, Christianity and Islam, however, all of these are considered as religion that binds the individual person to act, behave and live in a particular way without free will. Religion takes away the individuals right to self expression and denies them the opportunity to live life as they should and thus create vain and bitter uncaring people with selfcentred outlook on life itself. Madibaism is different from religion in that it recognizes that human beings have a free will that religion denies them. Madibaism is based on the book titled Nelson Mandela:The Rise of Madibaism which is available at https://www.amazon.com/Nelson-Mandela-Madibaism-humanist-emancipation/dp/1729822107 and can best be defined as a new selfless path of practice and method of living and working in a way that will benefit all humanity based on the ideals, jo...
