Members of the Practical & Radical Economically Transformation (PRET) of South Africa descended on the Lynnville Stadium to report back to their members and to map their way forward about the organisation. The organisation was also on a kick start campaign for the ANC for the 2019 election.

After the gathering was opened with a prayer, secretary general of the organisation Mr Sunday Mathebula presented the overall way forward about the aim and objective of the organisation. Mathebula indicated that they were behind the outcome of the ANC conference held in Nasrec in December and they were on course to claim back the unity of the ANC. Mathebula also thanked the delegates who attended the conference. He said PRET was behind the ANC.
Mathebula pointed out that PRET has 1, 5 million members in Mpumalanga alone and they are moving to other provinces as well. He also outlined the organisations new year programmes and stated that PRET SA was a non profit organisation mandated by the Mpumalanga province Premier Mr D.D. Mabuza, to recruit individual unemployed members across the province and to amalgamate all unemployment structures into one structure and that remains their focus.

He said they were focusing on unemployment, skills development, SMME’s development and local beneficiaries remain their mandate and that they are not moving from that particular posture. He said they will work hand in hand with government departments and the private sector to create jobs for their people.
“We are pushing the legacy of Premier Mabuza and we will visit our branches and mobilise them to vote for ANC in the national elections to be held next year in 2019. ANC is your political home and we will continue to walk the talk. We are going to take the business economy back to our people. We urged our members to share with their needy neighbours,” Mathebula said.
PRET president Mr Themba Sigudla endorses what Mathebula was saying and said PRET was for a united province under the ANC. He urged members to go to their branches.

“We are going to take over the economy of the province, the mining sector will be under PRET. We are going to form partnerships with government and sign partnership agreements. We are going to create jobs for our people and we will unite the people of the province because we know that unity is power. Corruption divides and we are going to wipe out corruption. Things will change and our young people must be employed. We are on course to open branches all over the country,” added Mr Sigudla.
