This happened after there was peace in this area.  There was peace in Mpumalanga only, but the other areas had not as yet established peace.  The violence in Mopela started in this fashion.  There was UDF and IFP at both Mopela and Njubugase, but there had never been political conflict in those areas.  It started on the day when Induna Khomo had held a meeting with the people.  As a member of Inkatha, as I have mentioned before, not all people from Njubugase were IFP members.  There were areas that were - there was a demarcation of areas, there was Osuthu and Ngonzene.  The Osuthu area belonged to the IFP and Ngonzene to the UDF.  When the Induna called the meeting, the UDF members decided to attack these people.  They killed 21 people on that occasion.  I was not present in Mpumalanga at that time, I was telephoned in Ulundi and the incident was reported to me, and the people who called me were afraid to go into Njubugase.  They waited until I arrived and on my arrival I assembled some boys and we armed ourselves and we went there.  On arrival, we did indeed see the horrible sight, and as far as I could see hand grenades were used in killing those people.  The police arrived while we were still there, and I said we should retreat.  They had already told me who the responsible people were from Ngonzene, and I said we will make a plan and we will go there.
