Subject: Warm Congratulations on the 18th Anniversary of the Al Jama-ah Party
Your Excellency President Mr. GANIEF HENDRICKS, Esteemed Members and Leadership of the Al Jama-ah Party, On behalf of the PARTI NATIONAL RIFAIN (PNR), and in my capacity as its President, it is with great respect and sincere admiration that I extend our heartfelt congratulations to the AL JAMA–AH PARTY as you commemorate the 18th anniversary of the party.
This milestone marks not only the longevity of a political movement, but the enduring strength of a principled vision grounded in justice, faith, representation, and service to the people of South Africa. Over nearly two decades, the AL JAMA–AH PARTY has stood as a meaningful voice for communities often marginalized, advocating with dignity for equality, ethical governance, and moral leadership.
We, in the PNR , recognize and value the shared struggles and aspirations of our peoples, and the spirit of unity that binds us in pursuit of dignity, cultural identity, and political empowerment. Your journey continues to inspire those of us engaged in similar paths across the world.
May this anniversary serve as a reminder of the progress made and a motivation to continue advancing with resilience and purpose. We look forward to strengthening the ties between our parties and to fostering greater collaboration in the future.
Please accept our warmest wishes for continued success, strength, and peace as you mark this important celebration.
With profound respect and solidarity,
RIDOUANE OUSSAMA
President
Leader of the AL JAMA-AH political party Honourable Ganief Hendricks attends the press conference launching the annual #Week4Palestine (#W4P) under the theme RED CARD ISRAEL.
The press conference was held on the 30th April at 11am at the Constitution Hill. The press conference includes representatives from civil society organisations, activists, political parties and trade union movements
During his speech he said the following:
Red card Israel. Red card Israel. Red card Israel. This worked in South Africa and it will work now. It was the Red cards in sport that led to the freedoms we in South Africa enjoy.
When AL JAMA-AH hosted Palestinian resistance fighters at Parliament of South Africa before the AL Aqsa flood they asked us to remind the world of the genocide in Palestine by liking, clicking, posting and sharing. That is why the ” week for Palestine” remains the signature event in South Africa to get the freedom we want for Palestine.
Every effort that is made to help free Palestine is recognized.
AL JAMA-AH next effort is to red-card apartheid complicity and apartheid activities and criminalize it in South Africa. More directly AL JAMA-AH says support for Israel is a crime against humanity and that apartheid activities and apartheid complicity must be punished to comply with the International Convention on the suppression and punishment of the crime of apartheid. Having a game of soccer with Israeli soccer players is an apartheid activity and a crime against humanity and must be red carded . Fifa must keep its hands clean and not be involved in an apartheid activity and a crime against humanity.
The Security Council has emphasized that apartheid and its continued intensification and expansion seriously disturb and threaten international peace and security. The Security Council is convinced that the top priority is to punish the crime of apartheid. Red carding Israel now is a step in the right direction and that is why AL JAMA-AH is applauding “week 4 Palestine 2025.”
In the matter between Azapo versus President of the Republic of South Africa 1996 SA 672 (CC) the Court explicitly recognized apartheid as a crime against humanity.
HRW and Amnesty International have submitted findings to the ICJ that Israel meets the Rome Statute definition of apartheid. The crime of apartheid is already a crime under South African law due to the incorporation in 2002 of the Rome Statute of the ICC into our domestic law.
AL JAMA-AH is ready to red card honourable members of Parliament who recently visited Israel and after a short visit declared that there is no apartheid in South Africa. As we sometimes do on a Fifa soccer field I want you to join me and boo. Boo, Boo Boo
Thank you very much
AL JAMA-AH celebrates its 18th Anniversary with farm dwellers from Nantes Farm in Paarl, Western Cape on Freedom Day!
Al Jama-ah had a ceremonial handover of a copy of a court order to representatives of farm dwellers living on Nantes Farm in Paarl, Drakenstein Municipality in the Cape Winelands District, Western Cape.
The court order compels the farm owner to restore the property to a position it was before.
The handing over of a copy of the court order to the seven families living on Nantes farm, will symbolize their ‘freedom’ on Freedom Day which corresponds with the 18th Anniversary of the Al Jama-ah Party, formed during April 2007 in Lansdowne.
The Nantes representatives joined in the anniversary celebration where their plight was further highlighted.
The birthday celebration took place on Sunday 27 April 2025 at the Lansdowne Civic Centre, Corner of Church Street & Lansdowne Road, Lansdowne, Cape Town.
Guests were treated to a delicious spit braai and Malay delicacies.
Deputy Minister of Social Development Honourable Ganief Hendricks. Leader of the AL JAMA-AH political party and Advocate, MP Shameemah Salie rolled up their sleeves and worked together alongside other political parties to cook several pots of food to cater for 3000 impoverished children on Eid.
Thank you to Thornton Care, Things on Wheels and all who sponsored this amazing initiative!
