Waziri Mkuu wa Western Cape Afrika Kusini, Helen Zille, amejitetea bungeni kwa kuwataja – Nelson Mandela, Chinua Achebe, Ali Mazrui, na Godfrey Mwakikagile – baada ya kushambuliwa kwa yale aliyoyasema kuhusu ukoloni. Ameandika yafwatayo, “Why I raised the subject of colonialism in Twitter: Helen Zille”, in Times Live, 6 April 2017:
“If anyone genuinely (i.e. without animus or a private agenda) thought I was actually defending, justifying or praising colonialism, I apologised unreservedly and stressed that this was not so.
Many prominent people have repeatedly made the same point as I, including Nelson Mandela, Chinua Achebe, Ali Mazrui, Godfrey Mwakikagile and even a current matric history text book.
So why the mass hysteria when I made exactly the same point?”

Suala hilo limejadiliwa katika magazeti ya Afrika Kusini pamoja na vyombo vingine vya habari nchini humo, pamoja na nje, miongoni mwao na BBC na Aljazeera.
Licha ya Mandela ambaye amenukuliwa na Helen Zille katika hotuba yake bungeni, Western Cape, kuhusu ukoloni, ambayo iko hapa chini, hawa wengine aliowataja – Professor Ali Mazrui, Chinua Achebe, na Mtanzania mwenzetu Godfrey Mwakikagile – wamesema au wameandika nini kuhusu ukoloni mpaka waziri mkuu huyo wa Cape Province ameona umhimu wa kuwataja kutetea kauli yake?
Ifwatayo hapa chini ni hotuba ya Helen Zille katika bunge la Cape Province akijitetea kuhusu kauli yake ya ukoloni ambayo anasema inaungwa mkono na Mandela, Achebe, Mazrui, Mwakikagile na Manmohan Singh ambaye aliwahi kuwa waziri mkuu wa India (2004 – 2014):
