Johannesburg - Former public protector Thuli Madonsela - and three others - Justice Malala, Palesa Morudu and Barney Pityana, have called for under fire Professor Adam Habib to be reinstated without delay at the University of London’s School of Oriental and African Studies.
In an article published on Wednesday, Madonsela, Malala, Morudu and Pityana, said Habib was feeling the heat as former Wits University students who had an axe to grind against him had mobilised against him. “Universities that allow this to happen will contribute to the death of culture and knowledge production. They will no longer be places of learning, opting to become ‘safe spaces’ where diversity of views is not tolerated — and only loud voices that claim to be the ’authentic’ voices of historic oppression,” said Madonsela, Malala, Morudu and Pityana.
Madonsela, Malala, Morudu and Pityana, said Habib had suffered racial oppression in South Africa, was an activist and was a black man who rose to the summit of an academic institution. “Habib, on the other hand, has been forced to step aside after saying in context that the use of the N-word would result in disciplinary action. He faces an organised social media campaign that seeks his removal from SOAS, with one online petitioner likening him to a war criminal.
“Biko’s world view formed part of the political tradition that united the oppressed to defeat apartheid and begin forging a non-racial future in the face of organised state violence. This tradition, which unfolded in the real world, has for many years informed Adam Habib’s world outlook.
Heelang!😳😅
Does it matter? Whether racist or not - we all know that other races have allegiance amongst their own people. It’s just that blacks what to be included by them. We can’t build our own empires - we depend in all these institutions - where we demand recognition. Disregard them!!!
Bokobo bja Thuli is unparalleled.
Sies those Devils
In a Bible there were '3 wise man' in South Africa we have '3 foolish people '
Whites in London suspended Adam Habib for racism but in South Africa we blacks Thuli, Palesa Morodu, Justice Malala and Barney Pityana being racism apologists. These ones are successful experiments
At Wits maybe..London its done.
MOORSSS4 Adam has fallen case closed😂 Those Top Thinkers must fuseg as well
Born free South Africans are in love with race and some of them make a good living from it

SIMBA58912083 Wat a waste 🙄🗑️
Self haters
He must fall
Thuli is white
How do they feature in his life?
What are they gonna do? Fokol! 😅
Even education sometimes do not change fools minds. I am disappointed with uThuli. Why black people are so quick to defend other races yet Sidis in India are oppressed yet no one ever utter a word about them.
Justice Makaula uyabathanda abelungu
Hawu Thuli, Pityana, Malala says Habib is black. What a nonsense. Why are Sidi people in India are not called Indians.
Madonsela and the musketeers are just gonna make matters worse for racist Habib, they should just zip it, they don't have to follow every order from Stellenbosch seriously.
Who listens to these miseducated fools anyway
This is the reason why South Africa will remain a colony. All these guys have white boy friends / girls friends, thus why they defend the oppressor family today
Before they are brutally attacked let's first find out why they think so people are entitled to their own views on certain issues and matters
Thuli defend racism. 🤔
