*The death of Peter Mokaba*
9 June 2002
It is with a sense of profound sadness and loss that the African National Congress announces the untimely death of ANC National Executive Committee member Peter Mokaba.
Mokaba died at 09.30 yesterday morning (Sunday, 9 June 2002) from natural causes.
Mokaba, who hailed from what is now the Limpopo province, was born on 7 January 1959.
A dedicated revolutionary and widely-respected leader, Mokaba was a founding member of the South African Youth Congress (SAYCO), becoming its first President at its launch in 1987 at a secret meeting in Cape Town. Following the unbanning of the ANC and the dissolution of SAYCO, Mokaba was elected President of the ANC Youth League in December 1991, a position he held until January 1994.
Elected as a Member of Parliament in April 1994 and again in June 1999, Mokaba served as Deputy Minister of Environmental Affairs and Tourism in the government of former President Nelson Mandela.
Mokaba was elected to the ANC National Executive Committee at its 48th National Conference in 1991, and was re-elected in 1994 and 1997. He was recently appointed to head the ANC's preparations for the 2004 elections.
Mokaba will be remembered as a fearless leader of a generation of young freedom fighters. He will be remembered as an African and a South African patriot, steadfastly committed to the liberation and empowerment of the people of South Africa and the continent.
His loss will be deeply felt within the democratic movement.

AS WE CELEBRATE THE 60th ANNIVERSARY OF UMKHONTO WE SIZWE
The Luthuli Detachment
The Luthuli Detachment was created on August 2, 1967. This group of about seventy nine well trained soldiers of Umkhonto we Sizwe were given the name by President Oliver Tambo on the banks of the Zambezi River. The name was in honour of President Albert Luthuli who had just passed away on the 21st July 1967. The death of Luthuli had just happened just about ten days before this group of gallant fighters were preparing to cross Zambezi River into Zimbabwe.
The mission of the the group of freedom fighters was to quietly get into Zimbabwe and set up bases in selected areas in Zimbabwe. Some members of the group were to proceed further south and cross the Limpopo River into South Africa where they were expected to build an underground resistance network.
Early that year, Cde. A ( Lehlohonolo Lambert Moloi) and his team were sent on a reconnaissance mission to locate a spot from which the main would cross into Zimbabwe. The group located a spot that was almost “impossible” as a crossing point. This was so because they knew they were entering hostile territory and therefore didn’t want a spot where they could be detected by enemy forces.
A contingent of Zimbabwe African People’s Revolutionary Army (Zipra) and Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK) guerrillas was prepared to enter Zimbabwe, then as Rhodesia under the regime of Ian Smith.
Oliver Tambo met the group on the banks of Zambezi and it was here that he christened them Luthuli Detachment.
This is the group that was to later be engaged in what was to be known as Wankie Spolilo battle which lasted from the 13th August to mid-September 1967. The Western Front battle as it was subsequently known by the admission of the Rhodesian Armed Forces the fiercest battle they had ever encountered. The fury, ferocity and firepower as was displayed by the freedom fighters during those bush engagements was unprecedented.
In this was the very first battle that MK soldiers were ever involved in, Lieutenant N Smith, in charge of the Rhodesian African Rifles platoon tracking the guerrillas, and his fearsome deputy, Sergeant Havahli Timitiya, were killed so did Thomas Morgan-Thomas, and many others.
The MK suffered losses too and among those fighters who didn’t survive the battles were Barry Sishuba, Robert Baloyi, Sparks Moloi and Peter Mhlongo.
