Talk:Oliver Tambo

message: Can anyone tell me where abouts in Finchley Oliver Tambo lived before he moved to Muswell Hill in London. We know the road and the rough location but not the exact address. The house will still be there - and I want to photograph it. Is it possible that someone might have a letter, or other document, or remembers the address. I have spoken with Patsy Pillay (see the British newspaper The Independent (15th October 2007) who spoke of the Finchley connection but it is too long ago for her to be sure of the number. Thank you : )  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hugh Petrie (talk • contribs) 11:06, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: and? are you saying you want to include this in the article? not sure if any of this really merits a mention.
or are you trying to make some sort of politcal comment? --Andy-106 15:21, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Johannesburg International Airport is a much more appropriate name for JHB's airport.  There are other ways in which Oliver Tambo could be honoured in his fight against apartheid.
'Well that's a rather random opinion! (and since it is not a decision any of us will make, it is surely not one that belongs here - perhaps the person who wrote that should write a letter to the newspaper instead) 92.29.33.79 (talk) 16:41, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

message: The section entitled Early Life contains the following: "In 1977 Tambo signed the first solidarity agreement between ANC and a Municipality, the relationship starts a relevant strength of the struggle against apartheid. The Italian town of Reggio nell'Emilia was the first city in the world to sign a pact of solidarity."
Since 1977 was not his "early life" I propose that this should be moved elsewhere, such as an Honours & Achievements section. Furthermore it does not even appear in the right chronological sequence and interupts the flow of the sentence preceding and following this statement. 92.29.33.79 (talk) 16:37, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

message: In the "Honours" section of this article, where it is stated that the Johannesburg International Airport would be renamed after him, it is written: "city of Inthokozo in the heart of Soshanguve in Johannesburg, then former capital of South Africa, before Pretoria became the capital city."
This statement brings up issues. For starters, there is only one place named Soshanguve and it is in the Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality (north of Pretoria). There is no place within the City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality or any other part of Gauteng that is named Soshanguve! Next, I do not think that Johannesburg has ever been the "capital of a nation". Next, I've attempted an online search and there is no city named Inthokozo. Also, the entire paragraph does not have a citation present.
Let us find a way to remove the exact words I have put in italics above without removing the saying that Thabo Mbeki was not in support of the renaming. GeographicAccountant (talk) 01:49, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
