UN General Assembly
1963

29. The racial policies of the Government of South Africa constitute some of the most formidable problems in Africa, and the shameful plight of millions of Africans' cries for speedy redress. The long list of Security Council and General Assembly resolutions has failed to produce any change of heart among the leaders of the present South African ruling party. The arrogance and truculence of Dr. Verwoerd and his colleagues can no longer be tolerated. As Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah has said, Dr. Verwoerd must realize that the present South African Government is a foreign government resident on African soil. How long can such a government remain a Member of this Assembly? And as the Romans would put it, "Quousque tandem abutere patientia nostra?” How long, oh how long, can we hear with these things? This Organization at this session must take appropriate steps against South Africa to bring it to book.
