About this user

The Solomon Mahlangu Freedom College (SOMAFCO) was a state of the art educational institution established in Mazimbu, near Morogoro, Tanzania initially on a 250ha piece of land, an old sisal farm, that later grew to a complex infrastructure situated on 1,000ha, donated by the Tanzanian government to the ANC.

Conceived as a model ANC political school during the early 70's, the school was renamed after Solomon Mahlangu shortly after his execution in 1979, and formally operated for just over 10 years, its first enrolment beginning in 1978 and continuing until just after 1989.

In 1992, the ANC formally handed over the school to the Tanzanian government in a ceremony officiated over by Oliver Tambo and President Hassan Mwinyi of Tanzania.

Interests

According to the ANC Education Policy Document of 1978, the objective of SOMAFCO was to create a 'political school' that would:

repare cadres to serve the national struggle of the people of South Africa in the phase of the struggle for seizure of political power and the post liberation phase.

produce such cadres as will be able to serve the society in all fields i.e. political, economic, socio-cultural, educational and scientific.
