Thank you very much, Deputy Speaker and hon members. The NFP stands here today with all people of goodwill in South Africa, in Africa and in the diaspora, to unequivocally express our support for our golden girl, Caster Semenya, as she stands crucified and discriminated against for her divine potential, for her God-given talent and for who she is. She is being crucified for being an excelling, resilient, unwavering and unmatched athlete of the world; our crme de la crme.
This torture reminds us of where we come from as a nation; the nation that had the best of our majority - women, men and youth - segregated against, and who could not showcase their God-given talents and potential. What is happening to Caster is the worst form of racism,
