Mevrou die Speaker, ek praat vandag in die teenwoordigheid van my moeder, Epainette Mbeki, MaMofokeng, wat 'n ondubbelsinnige boodskap gebring het van die landelike mense van Transkei, tussen wie sy al dekades lank woon. Sy sê dat hierdie menigte van almal van ons wat daarop aanspraak maak dat ons hul leiers is, eis dat ons hulle en ander soos hulle elders in die land, kan verseker dat ons steeds verbind is tot die onderneming wat ons gemaak het dat môre beter sal wees as vandag. Oor agt dae, op # Februarie, sal sy # jaar oud wees. Sy wil die waarheid as 'n verjaarsdaggeskenk hê. Ek dank haar dat sy die moeite gedoen het om vandag saam met ons te wees, en vertrou dat ons haar nie sal teleurstel nie

I speak here today in the presence of my mother, Epainette Mbeki, MaMofokeng, who came to communicate an unequivocal message from the rural masses of the Transkei, among whom she has lived for many decades. She says these masses demand of all of us who claim to be their leaders, that we tell them and others like them elsewhere in our country, whether we remain committed to the undertaking we have made that tomorrow will be better than today. In eight days' time, on February #, she will be # years old. What she expects as her birthday present is the truth. I thank her for taking the trouble to be with us today, and trust that we will not disappoint her
