Okay.  At the time I was serving as the ANC Youth League sub-regional Chairperson, which was composed of Lusikisiki, Flagstaff, Bizana and Port St Johns.  We had an agreement as the comrades who were forming up that sub-region, that in our respective Branches, we should organise ourselves into Self Defence Units, because during those days, it was the time when one was hearing about the Third Force, it was the time when one was aware that the government of the time, was not willing to free this country.
	There were delays during the negotiations, people were dying, so there was a need therefore for us in our respective areas, to organise ourselves, because we knew that there was a counter-revolutionary element in South Africa.  So as member of a revolutionary force, the ANC Youth League, we decided then to organise ourselves in Self Defence Units.
	The comrades from Port St Johns, reported the issue to the sub-regional Executive, which was composed of the  Self Defence Units, that there at Port St Johns, they are operating under a threat, they are suspecting that whites there, had infiltrated their area.  Then they wanted us to be aware of that as the Self Defence Unit at sub-regional level.
	Now, we told them to go and investigate the thing so that they can come up with a concrete information, so that we can transmit or convey it to the upper bodies of the ANC or the ANC, or the MK Commanders who were deployed in our areas, whom we were working hand in hand.
	So it was during the time that we were waiting for them to come up with the concrete evidence as to what is really happening there, so that we can submit a concrete information to the upper brass, to the top brass of the ANC.
	It was during that time that comrade Chris Hani was assassinated.  Then at Flagstaff then, as we had heard that information, we decided to take Port St Johns as our first area of operation.  That is the reason we went to Port St Johns.
