N\u00e1 sy reis van nege dae deur die land is die standbeeld van die eerstydse president van die Zuid-Afrikaanse Republiek (ZAR), Paul Kruger, op sy voetstuk in Orania in die Noord-Kaap staangemaak. Hier troon hy tien meter bo die dorpsplein uit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 Kruger-standbeeld van brons is \u2019n ewebeeld van die een op Kerkplein in Pretoria en weeg 1,5 ton. Dit is amptelik op Vrydag 10 Oktober in Orania onthul – op die 200ste herdenking van Kruger <\/a>se geboortedag. Meer as 2\u00a0000 mense het die feestelikheid bygewoon waartydens dr. Danie Langner, besturende direkteur van die \u00a0Federasie van Afrikaanse Kultuurvereniginge (FAK), die beeld simbolies aan die Orania-gemeenskap oorhandig het. In ‘n verklaring van die FAK word Kruger beskryf as “die persoon wat die Afrikaner se strewe na vryheid waarskynlik die kragtigste vergestalt”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sedert die vertrek van die standbeeld op Erfenisdag, 24 September, vanaf die Voortrekkermonument in Pretoria, het die konvooi wat die beeld vervoer by Kerkplein aangedoen, asook Boekenhoutfontein, Rustenburg, Potchefstroom, Krugersdorp, Heidelberg, Vereeniging, Udolpho, Heilbron, Vegkop, Bloemfontein, Paardeberg en Kimberley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weens die beeld se hoogte is dit plat op ‘n vragmotorbak vervoer, maar by elke besoekpunt is dit regop met die hulp van ‘n hyskraan gelig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit het op 2 Oktober in Orania aangekom en meer as ‘n duisend inwoners, in oranje en wit geklee en met Orania-vlae in die hand, het die beeld ingewag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie fantastiese opkoms het gewys hoe sterk die simboliese waarde van Paul Kruger steeds is, nie net as \u2019n figuur uit die verlede nie, maar as \u2019n simbool van standvastigheid, identiteit en kulturele selfbeskikking,\u201d s\u00ea Dawid Brand, bedryfshoof: media, bemarking en toerisme van die Kultuurtuiste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Bewuste strewe na bou en bewaring van eie kultuur, erfenis’<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Volgens die FAK is die oprigting van di\u00e9 Kruger-standbeeld, asook die voetstuk, deur Afrikaners van oor die hele Suid-Afrika moontlik gemaak. Simboliese stene is verkoop om die koste te delg. Elkeen wat \u2019n simboliese steen gekoop het, se naam word op die monumentvoetstuk verewig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVir die Orania Beweging is die trek van die Kruger-standbeeld na Orania simbolies baie belangrik, eerstens vir die feit dat oom Paul weer tussen sy mense staan en tweedens dat Orania-ondersteuners en medewerkers dit moontlik gemaak het om die monument op te rig. Die projek is vanuit die mense, die volk en almal wat bygedra het,\u201d s\u00ea Joost Strydom, uitvoerende hoof van die Orania Beweging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die FAK s\u00ea voorts dat in Orania \u2019n bewuste strewe na die bou en bewaring van eie kultuur en erfenis is. Kruger, wie se lewe en werk rondom vryheid, selfstandigheid en lojaliteit aan sy volk gesentreer was, pas by uitstek binne hierdie ruimte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Meer as geskiedkundige gebeurtenis’<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie aankoms van die standbeeld in Orania is meer as net \u2019n geskiedkundige gebeurtenis,\u201d s\u00ea Brand. \u201cWaar die geskiedenis dikwels verdraai of vergete word, word hier \u2019n daad verrig wat onbeskaamd s\u00ea: \u2018Ons is steeds hier. Ons onthou steeds. Ons bou steeds’.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die oprig van die beeld in Orania is in reaksie met die neiging waarin vele standbeelde wat eie aan die Afrikaner se identiteit en erfenis is, oor die land heen afgebreek of beskadig word, of in pakhuise verdwyn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cKruger het die republikeinse ideaal van vryheid en selfbestuur beliggaam. Sy standbeeld in Orania herinner elke besoeker daaraan dat hierdie ideale nie in die geskiedenisboeke begrawe is nie, maar vandag steeds toepaslik is vir Afrikaners wat hul kultuur, taal en geloof wil bewaar,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSoos die son oor die Oranjerivier opgekom het, het \u2019n nuwe dag vir die erfenis van Paul Kruger aangebreek,\u201d s\u00ea Brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Verjaarsdaggeskenk vir Oom Paul’<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

AfriForum het die 200ste herdenking van Kruger se geboorte op 10 Oktober 1825 herdenk met \u2019n spesiale \u201cverjaarsdaggeskenk\u201d: die verbetering van die beveiliging van die Kruger-monument op Kerkplein in die Pretoriase middestad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit volg nadat vandale weer in September van die standbeelde wat deel van die monument uitmaak, ernstig beskadig het. \u2019n Geweerloop en \u2019n skoen van twee van die Boerekrygerbeelde aan die voet van die Kruger-standbeeld is afgebreek. Omdat die veiligheidsheining rondom die monument ook beskadig is, was AfriForum bekommerd oor die onmiddellike veiligheid daarvan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Na afloop van produktiewe gesprekke met verteenwoordigers van die Tshwane Metropolitaanse Munisipaliteit is ooreengekom dat AfriForum die omheining kan herstel en versterk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AfriForum beklemtoon dat dit noodsaaklik is dat gemeenskappe self verantwoordelikheid vir die beskerming van hul erfenisbakens moet aanvaar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cKruger is \u2019n simbool van die stryd teen Britse imperialisme en \u2019n voorbeeld van samewerking tussen Afrikaners en ander gemeenskappe. Hy het \u2019n sleutelrol in die geskiedenis van die land gespeel wat mense steeds inspireer en besiel. Dit is gepas om op sy geboortedag ook hierdie aksie te onderneem om die monument te beveilig en terselfdertyd huidige geslagte hiervan bewus te maak,\u201d meen Alana Bailey, hoof: Kultuursake, AfriForum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bailey s\u00ea gesprekke tussen belanghebbendes oor die restourasie en toekomstige bewaring van die monument en beelde op Kerkplein duur nog voort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOns besef hierdie aksie bied geen permanente oplossing nie, maar dit is noodsaaklik dat die monument so goed as moontlik beskerm word totdat meer volhoubare oplossings gevind word,\u201d s\u00ea Bailey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op 10 Oktober het AfriForum ook \u2019n kranslegging by Kruger se graf in die Heldeakker in Pretoria gedoen, en aksies in Mpumalanga ter behoud van die Krugerwildtuin se naam geloods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
