One of my hero presidents in Africa - Samora Machel, dead but never forgotten. 19th October is always a day I pause to remember this great son of the soil, along side 17th Jan 1961 (Patrice Emery Lumumba) and 15th October 1987 (Thomas Sankara - four days before a complete year after Machel's tragic end). These sons of Africa shall always be forever etched in my heart and mind.
Our beloved Ambassador uncle Sikumba was among in that plane crash.... none last forever... today was my first time to have courage to watch the investigation.... Hans Louw you are a brave man... even though i have bitter vibes..... years have gone by, yet still hurting....
All the countries whose presidents were assassinated have never regained their power and economic liberation. The Apartheid regime definitely had our hero murdered, and they so sick, they had Mandela divorce Winnie and marry his widow 😢 Praying the truth is finally revealed and justice meted out for the deceased.
But it's said that the Apartheid regime released the fake Mandela and they didn't want Winnie to discover that secret. That's why they separated him from his wife (Winnie) And Winnie always said that It's not his his husband that came out of prison🙄🙄. Or he was mentally changed
Mandela divorced Winnie because she murdered a small boy, called Stompie. And she slept with every man she could get into bed. Did the apartheid government made here into a whore?
I was in Maputo when the president died , before the investigation I briefed an airline director about the workings of VOR system, it was a very sad time and there was a gut feeling that the South African regime had a hand in the murder of the great son of Africa.
Any African leade who want to do good things for African people and continent is always killed, the white south Africans are also Anglo American who are controling African economy.. the sad part is that in our government are many working for white peoples benefits CIA traitors..
I loved samola so very much,he was a very close friend to my late grand father Mr Afirika Banda who was the headman of Kaimbwa village in the border between Zambia and Mozambique.My grand father was one of the closest to the late president...two weeks before his death he came secretly to meet my grandfather so that he informed him of the meet in Zambia (1986).After samola died,a week later soldiers invaded my grandfathers village but their operations was unsuccessful.After a month when samola died,my grandfather also past on and this time the soldiers from South Africa and Mozambique (Frelimo) successful managed to invade into my grandfathers village.When they took over the village they asked for my grandfather and they were told that he past on a week ago.The soldiers request to see the grave where he was barried and they were shown.They resumed the body and burnt my grandfathers' body to ashes.The villagers were killed and some managed to escape to Zambia and are currently living in Chimusitu village under Chief Kawaza in the present day Zambia.I am his grand son currently living in Zambia-Kitwe.
Sorry Brother we lost many good souls and to see the condition the our motherland is ,it pains my heart and it troubles my soul and our country it heading to war again
I remember in the 80’s singing a sad song in Botswana I was in primary school, Maunatlala primary school. I wasn’t in a pain I’m in today because I didn’t understand how the world worked. I’m sad for Mozambique 🇲🇿 and the whole continent.
Long Live and Rest in Power Comrade Machel. The truth will come to light and the cold- blooded murderers will not go unpunished. One Love 💘. One Africa. Africa's Resources for Africa's Development. Africa for Africans worldwide.
It is so scary that a life of a human being in on another human being's hands, someone just have to make a command.this is an every day life,we just choose not to talk about it.
@@hendrickswart4122 Just out of curiosity and for truth, why did you take a different stand to almost all the comments I had read? Was late Machel such a terrible leader both on the national and international stage or what? Thanks for shedding light on this and hope to hear from you soonest.

The FRELIMO involvement sounds like a huge dark conspiracy ... and I have no doubt if there was opportunity the SADF would have taken full advantage. It was a war ... the FRELIMO government was involved providing support to the ANC and ZANU/PF. If you play with fire ... you might get burned. But it would be good to get the truth, so history and the families can know exactly what happened.

It really proves Samora didn't die accidentally,but assassinated by the South African security forces. He might be assassinated but his fighting spirit didn't die
one traditional Christmas Choir from Garogwe ward in Digawana, Southern District, Botswana, sang a song that went like this in 1987: "Peter Botha wa seganana (Peter Botha the outlaw) Yo o bolaileng Rre Machel (the one who killed Mr Machel) A mo thuntsha godimo ga sefofane (he shot him from the plane) A mo tseela dipampiri tsa mmuso" (and stole his government documents) something like that..years ago..
@@chiyenyumba7135 In fact, the post-mortem report stated: "no traces of a brain, only cotton wool". You can find the full report in the records of The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). The cotton wool is surprising because Samora's actions indicated that it was only a cavity
I was a US government human factors investigator who was sent undercover to participate in the inquiry. The pilots were in and out of various cloud layers apparently. Furthermore, the captain suggested that the airport lights had been shut off by rebel action. Sadly the captain knew they were low on fuel, so he pressed on with this wrong assumption in the apparent hope he would soon see the unlighted runways.
@@alandiehl202 Thanks Alan. So what was your personal conclusion in the end. And why didn't the pilot attempt to land in Harare, Zimbabwe if he was low on fuel?
@ Brandon Marks, Samora is not your ancestor. Unless you are his son or grandson or something, calling him your ancestor is absurd. 🤦 ....Modern day Africans can't be your ancestors, that is just stupid
Why do u hate Samora Machel? He was a good man who set free the Mozambican people against the portuguese exploitation in their own home land. Samora Machel is alive inside of each of Mozambican.
He was at war with a superior enemy. But the reliable reports were that the Russian pilots were drunk and if they were not they would have been able to avoid any alleged changes to Beacons.
Mozambique could been a different country with him at the helm of national leadership but like tragic situations experienced, Mozambique and Africa were robbed of this charismatic leader and he will be remembered fondly by future African generations.
Commission of Inquiry. That is all it takes. And if the UN was a useful organization, they would already be conducting such a commission. But Alas...they do what the master says.
SA is an independent country under a black rule. First SA President married the widow of Machel. Why did not Mrs Machel request Mandela as head of SA and at some point chair of SAdc. This matter was never raise. Could it be that there was a trade off between Apartheid regime relinquishing power, death of Chris Hani death of Machel release of Mandela in 1990 and independence of SA.
So glad to see how friends for other African countries know and recognized Samora Machel as a greater leader. Unfortunately his government had too many problems because of socialism. Mozambique were socialism but helped more than capitalist countries. Samora legacy never die. Viva Samora
Hans Louw is not black, but is part of a people that is called coloreds. This is not discriminately but the coloreds is a race originated from the Koisan people and the Dutch men that established a halfway station in South Africa.

Pik Botha was supposed to be in a plane crash himself, the Lockerbie flight, but the CIA warned him not to step on the plane and he pulled out at the last second and when asked why he done this he said "The information i received and the people i received it from meant i couldn't turn it down lightly". In other words whoever told him and Pik Botha himself knew for certain that the Lockerbie flight was going to be bombed but chose to say nothing and let other people get on and die. Why would they do that......Who blew it up! It can only come from the Americans themselves, if you have that much detail about an event before it happens i can only assume that they had some connection to the bombing itself. Ive heard it was to do with drug smuggling and that there were CIA agents killed on the plane who were coming back to America to report to the world that there superiors were involved in smuggling heroin through Frankfurt airport from Lebanon and therefore they were killed by switching a drug bag with a bag with a bomb at Frankfurt airport so that they would all be killed and couldn't reveal the smuggling operation they had discovered.
The death of a human being is very sad,no matter who he was.But I am just asking myself what happened to the grouo of people who Samorah threw in Milanji bushes just because they did not take part in politics.
Aboard the Lockerbie flight were U.S. Department of State Diplomatic Security Service (DSS) Special Agents Daniel Emmett O'Connor and Ronald Albert Lariviere. Matthew Gannon, the Central Intelligence Agency's deputy station chief in Beirut, Lebanon. . So the Americans would warn Pik Botha but not their own people - ridiculous !
Simple answer. Listen to the cockpit voice recording. There were frequent blackouts in Maputo in those days, so the Russian navigator called the pretoguese speaking operator at the airport and they had the following Laurel and Hardy exchange: Russian "Is the lights on?' Preto "Nao, dee lights she's ane". Russian again "Is the lights on?" Preto "Nao the lights she's ane". Pilots who flew into Maputo at night would tell you it was easy to mistake the lights of Matola and a dam building site further south west, for Maputo. They flew in that direction, made a right turn as they would normally do to land at Maputo airport. Unfortunately for them, the land beyond the dam is higher than Maputo airport, and they were already flying below the height prescribed for a landing at Maputo. When the ground proximity alarm sounded, the pilot instructed the navigator to turn it of, and continued to dived the beer stock they had on board. The pilots never had the opportunity to drink the beer, but the navigator survive to go on to scrounge for vodka money in Moscow.
He didn't grab her, she was installed in his life to be a spy to make sure he tows the line. Many women married to men of power are spies. I'm sure she played a part in Samoras assassination as well.
@@robbylebotha No, she reportedly played a role in the assassination of Samora's first wife. Samora died when he attempted to enter South Africa illegally because he couldn't get a Wenela contract as a mineworker.
Please no conspiracy here he married her 10 years after this incident. If you ask me it was the Portuguese and Chissano involved as he reversed all Machels policy as soon as he got into power.
"The wheels to prepare to land was already out", says Hans Louw, who adds: "The pilots thought they were landing in Mozambique." The Accident Factual Report signed unanimously by the investigators from South Africa, Mozambique and the USSR clearly states that the aircraft's landing gear had not been lowered. Besides, the aircraft was not in landing configuration ‐ it was flying at cruising speed (411 km/hour when it crashed). The Captain's final words as retrieved from the Cockpit Voice Recorder: "There is nowhere to go". How could Mr Hans Louw say that the pilots thought they were landing in Mozambique ? In fact, the pilots could not see any runway lights.
Leader Samora was in Stanger/KwaDukuza circa 1962 as a bakery van delivery assistant with late Abdul Hajee Suleman. I remember him as a jovial character and well liked in the town.
Navigation error, the crew were tracking the VOR beacon at Matsapa not Maputo, the Maputo beacon transmits on 117.7 MHZ while Matsapa is 117.3....even more similarly when these numbers are written in Cyrilliac script, as in the Russain aircraft. An easy error for a the tired and fatigued crew to make. If you follow the trajectory from the aircraft heading and crash site it tracks directly towards the Matsapa airport beacon, which is what they were tracking on 117.3 mhz. The false beacon theory is bullsh1t, a VOR beacon is a massive structure that requires calibration and complex electrical powering, it is not something you can put on the back of a truck and lure an aircraft with....
@@bennickclayton6468 The Polish Pm plane, curiously the same aircraft type as the Samora Machel crash, crashed because the crew descended below legal safe minima in bad weather, as far as I know. If you have any links or info suggesting a credible false beacon theory for the Polish PM crash, I will be fascinated to read it.
Samora Machel was a very much loved Pan-Africanist. I remember how much sorrow his death evoked in the then Frontline States. His famous slogans where "Aluta Continua, abash imperialism".
South Africans soldiers killed Samora Machel that I'm 100% sure I'm saying it bcoi South Africa is the only country who used to help RENAMO fighting with FRELIMO
We will forever be thankful to his effort, but that he died because of conspiracy that was not confirmed yet. I used to visit his monument and the conspiracy was not confirmed. He was not the first president to die on a plane and I dont think he will be the last.
I was doing my junior secondary school when samora visited mbala. In company of mobuto, eduardo santos and kenneth kaunda. He was the last to arriva at mbala zaf base. Upon arrival, he said alura continua. I was in class when I heard of his deaf
With this documentary, and what I now know about Evil, murderous, oppressive, extremely racist Apartheid South Africa Government of that time. I confidently say I know what may have happened to African Hero, Samora Michel Aluta Continua!!!
Was this government as murderous as Idi Amin, 30,000 deaths? Mengistu Haile-Mariam, Etiopia, 1.5 million deaths? Yakubu Gowon, Nigeria, 1.1 million deaths? General Sani Abacha, Nigeria, 200,000 deaths? Ahmed Sékou Touré, Guinea, 150,000 deaths? Charles Taylor, Liberia, 150,000 deaths? Hissène Habré, Libya, 100,000 deaths? Witch doctor Francisco Macías Nguema, Guinea, 90,000 deaths? Omar al-Bashir, Sudan, 50,000 deaths? General Paul Biya, Cameroon, 40,000 deaths?
You are assuming; because, of how the word is normally used that assassination is bullets to the head or body. But here, allow me to help you out. An assassination is the premeditated act of killing someone suddenly or secretively, especially a prominent person.
That is my late paternal grandmother, she always told us this story when we visited her, how they heard the noise on that fateful night and how the man came asking for help!
May God bless her for standing with the truth
Eyi but our leaders die in vain, and those who take over don't use late leaders as models.

Re Hans Louw: There's a legal principle that the evidence of certain types of caracters must be treated with caution. Murderers is such a category.
Salute to Mpikeleni Duma for alwayd delving deeper into this story and unearthing some of these dark operations.
who did what. the pilots did not see lights see the brights lights of maputo or the airport.
Simple answer. Listen to the cockpit voice recording. There were frequent blackouts in Maputo in those days, so the Russian navigator called the pretoguese speaking operator at the airport and they had the following Laurel and Hardy exchange: Russian "Is the lights on?' Preto "Nao, dee lights she's ane". Russian again "Is the lights on?" Preto "Nao the lights she's ane".
Pilots who flew into Maputo at night would tell you it was easy to mistake the lights of Matola and a dam building site further south west, for Maputo. They flew in that direction, made a right turn as they would normally do to land at Maputo airport. Unfortunately for them, the land beyond the dam is higher than Maputo airport, and they were already flying below the height prescribed for a landing at Maputo. When the ground proximity alarm sounded, the pilot instructed the navigator to turn it of, and continued to dived the beer stock they had on board. The pilots never had the opportunity to drink the beer, but the navigator survive to go on to scrounge for vodka money in Moscow.
Zambia 🇿🇲 will never forget General Somola Michael rest well
Samora Machel killing was done by the toubobs and Nelson Mandela was in on this war crime.
And Nelson Mandela immediately grabbed Machel's wife. Sad
He didn't grab her, she was installed in his life to be a spy to make sure he tows the line. Many women married to men of power are spies. I'm sure she played a part in Samoras assassination as well.
@@robbylebotha No, she reportedly played a role in the assassination of Samora's first wife. Samora died when he attempted to enter South Africa illegally because he couldn't get a Wenela contract as a mineworker.
@@wimkotze7744 well she is still an asset/spy. I just don't know who owns her.
There's something fishy around this Mandela and Graca saga
Please no conspiracy here he married her 10 years after this incident. If you ask me it was the Portuguese and Chissano involved as he reversed all Machels policy as soon as he got into power.
Mr Machel is a good man who fight for their land against Portugueses
seneless statement
How come a professional pilot was so naive? Stories will be made to avoid the real truth.
Pilots are trained to rely on their instruments. Plotters take advantage of training.
Because of the conflict and being unhappy
Exactly he was flying in completely the opposite heading.
A few years ago, a big airliner crashed in Cameroon. No one is accusing that poor black pilot of a conspiracy.
They killed him. South African Apartheid evil regime is responsible but make no mistake THEY were not ALONE .
Eliman Gibba the French and America led the way
no one is saying there is a airforce airbase just about 50km away from the crash side
There is also a naval base 300 km away ..what is the point ?
Now we know why President Mandela married his wife Graca Machel and was forced to divorce Winnie?
I still remember while I was doing my primary education singing
Mupanduki Ndi botha kuuraya vasamora
"The wheels to prepare to land was already out", says Hans Louw, who adds: "The pilots thought they were landing in Mozambique."
The Accident Factual Report signed unanimously by the investigators from South Africa, Mozambique and the USSR clearly states that the aircraft's landing gear had not been lowered. Besides, the aircraft was not in landing configuration ‐ it was flying at cruising speed (411 km/hour when it crashed).
The Captain's final words as retrieved from the Cockpit Voice Recorder: "There is nowhere to go".
How could Mr Hans Louw say that the pilots thought they were landing in Mozambique ? In fact, the pilots could not see any runway lights.
Painful till today in Zambia students were sent home
Bet Mandela knew.
And he took his wife
Mandela was in prison by then.
Why can't you think he was protecting her from being killef to have you ever thought about it?
@@eugenianhatave8288 Are you aware that Mandela didn't serve 27yrs as they say?
@@serveupss2096 18 years in prison and 9 a house arrest all in all 27 years in prison
True that was a sellout
Leader Samora was in Stanger/KwaDukuza circa 1962 as a bakery van delivery assistant with late Abdul Hajee Suleman. I remember him as a jovial character and well liked in the town.
Ex president Zuma learnt more over the years as he was an army intelligence by history.
Whaaat - this fool could not read……….intelligence of what?
They have always done this to us when are we gonna learn not to betray each other
Do you know that Idi Amin was also involved.
Now the question is why Mandela married the wife of this guy?
That's politics for you
Because Winnie slept with his friends? And Mandela really loved the ladies. Go check it out. He had many affairs.
I miss Samora Machel. Such a freedom fighter is a rare breed to the African continent these days.
Navigation error, the crew were tracking the VOR beacon at Matsapa not Maputo, the Maputo beacon transmits on 117.7 MHZ while Matsapa is 117.3....even more similarly when these numbers are written in Cyrilliac script, as in the Russain aircraft. An easy error for a the tired and fatigued crew to make.
If you follow the trajectory from the aircraft heading and crash site it tracks directly towards the Matsapa airport beacon, which is what they were tracking on 117.3 mhz.
The false beacon theory is bullsh1t, a VOR beacon is a massive structure that requires calibration and complex electrical powering, it is not something you can put on the back of a truck and lure an aircraft with....
Well said BRO !!!!!
rubbish, the same thing happened to the polish leader after he chastised putin for annexing Georgia
@@bennickclayton6468 The Polish Pm plane, curiously the same aircraft type as the Samora Machel crash, crashed because the crew descended below legal safe minima in bad weather, as far as I know. If you have any links or info suggesting a credible false beacon theory for the Polish PM crash, I will be fascinated to read it.
Samora Machel was a very much loved Pan-Africanist. I remember how much sorrow his death evoked in the then Frontline States. His famous slogans where "Aluta Continua, abash imperialism".
Much as he died, he still remain african hero
@ogwang morrish, "We Don't Need Another Hero" - Tina Turner
Hero? a poes ja
GNU - The day my opresor clap hands for me, must know that I've betrayed you
South Africans soldiers killed Samora Machel that I'm 100% sure
I'm saying it bcoi South Africa is the only country who used to help RENAMO fighting with FRELIMO
Pik Botha is one big assassin my father was in military(god bless is sold) and he always spoke abt the things Botha did…..
KAK STORIE BRA !
Can I assume your father was a cook in the army?
We will forever be thankful to his effort, but that he died because of conspiracy that was not confirmed yet. I used to visit his monument and the conspiracy was not confirmed. He was not the first president to die on a plane and I dont think he will be the last.
This assassination is similar to the killing of President Habyarimana and Burundi President in Kigali Rwanda.
Who did it there?
@@emmanuelhitilasha2460
Paul Kagame, on orders of Bill Clinton the US president
Samora Machelle died while being the pesident of the poorest country in the world. A true African hero!
National Party was really cruel towards Africans
Rest in power forever ,now Wake up and join my 7billion angels Thank you the Yunas🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💪🌍👍
It crashed in my village Mbuzini.
AND DO THINGS TO TRY TO CONFIRM THOSE ALLEGATIONS.
was plot in Maputo and south Africa was involved
Why would Botha be one of the first people at the site of the crash. They just gave it away. The black box recorder is also clear
I was doing my junior secondary school when samora visited mbala. In company of mobuto, eduardo santos and kenneth kaunda. He was the last to arriva at mbala zaf base. Upon arrival, he said alura continua. I was in class when I heard of his deaf
With this documentary, and what I now know about Evil, murderous, oppressive, extremely racist Apartheid South Africa Government of that time.
I confidently say I know what may have happened to African Hero, Samora Michel
Aluta Continua!!!
Was this government as murderous as Idi Amin, 30,000 deaths?
Mengistu Haile-Mariam, Etiopia, 1.5 million deaths?
Yakubu Gowon, Nigeria, 1.1 million deaths?
General Sani Abacha, Nigeria, 200,000 deaths?
Ahmed Sékou Touré, Guinea, 150,000 deaths?
Charles Taylor, Liberia, 150,000 deaths?
Hissène Habré, Libya, 100,000 deaths?
Witch doctor Francisco Macías Nguema, Guinea, 90,000 deaths?
Omar al-Bashir, Sudan, 50,000 deaths?
General Paul Biya, Cameroon, 40,000 deaths?
South Africa killed him
rest in peace my hero
That’s Africa for you. A murderer gets out of prison, 17 years early because he tells a fairytale of what the government wanted to hear.
Samora Michel was very much loved and revered here in Botswana 🇧🇼 ❤ a true African Hero
How can you be assassinated by a conspiracy?
You are assuming; because, of how the word is normally used that assassination is bullets to the head or body. But here, allow me to help you out. An assassination is the premeditated act of killing someone suddenly or secretively, especially a prominent person.
A Luta Continua.
Sim. e a vitória ainda está perdida
