It has often been said that the Native Elders of any given tribe hold the 
keys to knowledge. This statement has never been more clearly confirmed than 
in the recent interview I had the great privilege to conduct with Zulu 
"Sanusi" (Shaman) Credo Mutwa, now nearing eighty years of age.

Through the efforts and assistance of David Icke, I was able to establish 
contact with Dr. Johan Joubert, who graciously coordinated with Credo Mutwa, 
thus allowing the interview to take place by telephone, literally half-way 
around the world in South Africa. We at The SPECTRUM would like to convey 
our deepest appreciation to both David Icke and to Dr. Joubert for their 
selfless efforts at getting this man's Truth out to the world.

I first heard about Credo Mutwa five years ago, only at that time it didn't 
seem possible to speak with him directly by telephone, as he lives in a 
somewhat remote area with no phone. When I heard from David Icke that he had 
spent time with Credo Mutwa and that he would be willing to speak with The 
SPECTRUM, well, that's all it took. Through the wonder of the international 
telephone lines, on August 13 we had what turned out to be a 4-hour session! 
And no, we are not about to pare it down to "sound bite" size. The words he 
has spoken will appear completely and in full context, as is our usual 
policy-a matter of respect for the speaker as well as simply being good, 
honest journalism!

Credo Mutwa is a man whom David Icke describes as "The most amazing and 
knowledgeable man it has been my privilege and honor to call a friend, a 
genius." After speaking with Credo Mutwa, I couldn't agree more.

I would like to comment that Credo Mutwa, while not a man of formal 
education, was kind enough and conscientious enough to spell all of the Zulu 
or African words, proper names, etc. for this article. Those of you who may 
be African scholars will find this level of accuracy more advantageous to 
your research than will the average reader, however such care taken by Credo 
is yet another facet of his honesty and precision.

If you feel that you have read some material lately that stretches your 
thinking and challenges some belief systems, this interview will take you 
one step beyond. As always, Truth is stranger than fiction. As well, 
Truth-or pieces of Truth revealed to any one of us are part of a larger 
mosaic, and thus it is up to each of us to arrive at our own conclusions 
concerning the Truth that others have to share with us.

We are honored to have this opportunity to present Credo Mutwa's experiences 
and knowledge with you. It is a most rare and much appreciated opportunity.

The astonishing information presented by Credo Mutwa is certainly thought 
provoking and far-reaching in both implications and scope. Once you read 
this information you will more readily understand why there have been 
attempts to silence him. Similarly, you will more deeply appreciate Credo's 
courage for coming forth and speaking truth, no matter the consequences to 
self.

So, without further introductory commentary, let the interview begin.

Martin First of all, let me say it is an honor and a privilege to speak 
with you, and I would like to thank and acknowledge David Icke and Dr. 
Joubert, without whose help we would not be having this conversation today.

Our readers are aware of the existence of the shape-shifting reptilian 
extraterrestrials, and what I would like to discuss with you concerns the 
specifics of their presence, their leadership, their agenda, and their 
methods of operation at this time.

So, the first question I would like to ask you is Can you confirm that 
shape-shifting reptilian extraterrestrials do, in fact, exist on our planet 
at this time? And if they do, if you can confirm this, will you please be 
specific about them. Where do they come from?

Credo Mutwa Sir, can your newspaper send people to Africa?

Martin I'm sorry, can you repeat that?

Credo Mutwa Can your newspaper kindly send somebody to Africa in the near 
future?

Martin We are financially not able to do that at this time, but that may 
change in the future.

Credo Mutwa Because there are some things that I would, please, like your 
newspaper to check-out, independent of me. You have heard of the country 
called Rwanda, in Central Africa?

Martin Yes.

Credo Mutwa The people of Rwanda, the Hutu people, as well as the Watusi 
people, state, and they are not the only people in Africa who state this, 
that their very oldest ancestors were a race of beings whom they called the 
Imanujela, which means "the Lords who have come". And some tribes in West 
Africa, such as a Bambara people, also say the same thing. They say that 
they came from the sky, many, many generations ago, a race of highly 
advanced and fearsome creatures which looked like men, and they call them 
Zishwezi. The word Zishwezi means the dival or the glidal-creatures that can 
glide down from the sky or glide through water.

Everybody, sir, has heard about the Dogon people in Western Africa who all 
say that they were given culture by the normal beings, but they are not-the 
Dogon people are but ONE of many, many peoples in Africa who claim that 
their tribe or their king were first founded by the supernatural race of 
creatures that came from the sky.

Are you still with me, sir?

Martin Oh yes, very much so. Please continue.

Credo Mutwa Sir, I can go on and on, but let me bring you to my people, the 
Zulu people of South Africa.

Martin Please.

Credo Mutwa The Zulu people, who are famous as a warrior people, the people 
to whom King Shaka Zulu, of the last century, belonged. When you ask a South 
African White anthropologist what the name of Zulu means, he will say it 
means "the sky" (laughter), and therefore the Zulu call themselves "people 
of the sky". That, sir, is non-sense. In the Zulu language, our name for the 
sky, the blue sky, is sibakabaka. Our name for inter-planetary space, 
however, is izulu and the weduzulu, which means "inter-planetary space, the 
dark sky that you see with stars in it every night", also has to do with 
traveling, sir. The Zulu word for traveling at random, like a nomad or a 
gypsy, is izula.

Now, you can see that the Zulu people in South Africa were aware of the fact 
that you can travel through space-not through the sky like a bird-but you 
can travel through space, and the Zulus claim that many, many thousands of 
years ago there arrived, out of the skies, a race of people who were like 
lizards, people who could change shape at will. And people who married their 
daughters to a walking (extraterrestrial), and produced a power race of 
Kings and tribal Chiefs, there are hundreds of fairy-tales, sir, in which a 
lizard female assumes the identity of a human princess and poses as her, and 
gets married to a Zulu Prince.

Every school child in South Africa, sir, knows about the story of a princess 
called Khombecansini. Khombecansini was to have married a handsome Prince 
called Kakaka, a name which means "the enlightened one". Now, one day while 
Khombecansini was gathering firewood in the bush, she met a creature called 
an Imbulu. And this Imbulu was a lizard which has the body and the limbs of 
a human being, but a long tail. And this lizard spoke to Princess 
Khombecansini, "Oh, how beautiful you are, girl, I wish I could be like you. 
I wish I could look like you. Can I come close to you?" said the Imbulu 
lizard woman to the princess.

And the princess said, "Yes, you can."

And as the lizard, which was a taller one, came close to the girl, she spat 
into the girl's eyes and she began to change. That is, the lizard suddenly 
changed into a human shape and this lizard began to look more and more and 
more and more like the girl, with the exception of her long, pointed tail. 
And then, with her sudden burst of violence, the lizard woman sealed the 
princess and removed all her bangles and her beads and her wedding skirt off 
her, and she put them on. Thus, the lizard became the princess.

Now there were two identical women in the bush, the shape-shifted lizard 
woman and the original woman. And the lizard woman said to the original 
woman, "Now you are my slave. Now you are going to accompany me to the 
marriage. I will be you and you will be my slave, comeon!" She took a stick 
and started beating up the poor princess. And then she went, accompanied by 
other girls who were bride's maids, according to Zulu custom, and she 
arrived at Prince Kakaka's village.

But, before they reached the village she had to do something about her tail, 
that is, the shape-shifting woman had, somehow, to hide the tail. So, she 
forced the princess to weave a net out of fiber and she tucked the tail in 
and she tied it tight to herself. She now looked like a Zulu woman with 
attractive, very big buttocks, when seen from outside.

And then, when she arrived and she became the wife of the prince, a strange 
thing started happening in the village. All of the milk started disappearing 
because each night the shape-shifting princess, the false princess, used to 
release her tail, which used to suck in all of the sour milk through a hole 
at the tip of the tail. And the mother-in-law said, "What is this? Why is 
the milk disappearing?" Then, she said, "No, I see, there is an Imbulu 
amongst us."

The mother-in-law, who was a clever old lady, said, "A hole must be dug in 
the front of the village and it must be filled with milk." And this was 
done. And then, all of the girls who had come with the false princess were 
told to jump over this hole. One after the other one, they jumped. And when 
the shape-shifter was forced, at spear-point, to jump as well, as she jumped 
her long tail burst out of the net under her skirt and started slurping the 
milk through the hole, and the warriors killed the shape-shifter. And thus, 
the real Princess Khombecansini became the wife of the king-of King Kakaka.

Now, sir, this story has got many versions in it. Throughout South Africa, 
amongst many tribes, you'll find stories of these amazing creatures who are 
capable of changing from reptile to human being, and from reptile to any 
other animal of their choice. And thesecreatures, sir, do really exist. No 
matter where you go throughout Southern, Eastern, Western, and Central 
Africa, you'll find that the description of these creatures is the same. 
Even amongst tribes which never, throughout their long history, had contact 
with each other at all.

So, there ARE such creatures. Where they come from, I will never claim to 
know, sir. But they are associated with certain stars in the sky, and one of 
these stars is a large group of stars which is part of the Milky Way, which 
our people call Ingiyab, which means "The Great Serpent". And there is a red 
star, a redish star, near the tip of this huge rim of stars which our people 
call IsoneNkanyamba.

Now, this star called IsoneNkanyamba, I managed to find its English name. It 
is the star called Alpha Centauri, in English. Now, this, sir, is something 
that is worth investigating. Why is it that well over 500 tribes in parts of 
Africa which I've visited in the last 40 or 50 years or so, all of them 
describe similar creatures?

It is said that these creatures feed on us human beings; that they, at one 
time, challenged God Himself to war, because they wanted full control of the 
universe. And God fought a terrible battle against them and He defeated 
them, injured them, and forced them to hide in cities underground.

They hide in deep cavities underground, because they are always feeling 
cold. In these cavities, we are told, there are huge fires which are kept 
going by slaves, human, zombie-like slaves. And, it is further said that 
these Zuswazi, these Imbulu, or whatever you choose to call them, are not 
capable of eating solid food. They either eat human blood, or they eat that 
power, the energy that is generated when human beings, on the surface of the 
Earth, are fighting and killing each other in large numbers.

I met people who have fled from the early Masaki in Rwanda, from years ago, 
and these people were horrified by what was happening in their country. They 
said that the slaughter of the Hutus by the Watusi, and the Watusi by the 
Hutus, is actually feeding the Imanujela, monsters.  Because the Imanujela 
like to inhale the energy that is generated by masses of people being 
terrified or being killed by other people.

Are you still with me, sir?

Martin Yes, I'm completely with you.

Credo Mutwa Now, let me point out an interesting thing, sir. If you study 
the languages of all African nations, you find within the languages of our 
people words which are similar to Oriental, Middle-Eastern, and even Native 
American words. And the word Imanujela means "the Lord who came". A word 
that anyone can discover in Rwanda, amongst the Rwandan Hutu and Watusi 
people, is very similar to the Herbrew word Immanuel, which means "the Lord 
is with us". Imanujela, "the ones who came, the Lords who are here".

Our people believe, sir, that we, the people of this Earth, are not masters 
of our own lives, really, although we are made to think that we are. Our 
people say, that is, Black people of all tribes, all of the initiated ones, 
all of the shamans everywhere in Africa, when they get to trust you and 
share their deepest secrets with you, they say that [with] the Imanujela, 
there is Imbulu. And there is another name by which these creatures are 
known. This name is Chitauli. Now, the word Chitauli means "the dictators, 
the ones who tell us the law". In other words, "they who tell us, secretly, 
what we are to do". Now, it is said that these Chitauli did a number of 
things to us when they came to this planet.

Please forgive me, but I must share this story with you. It is one of the 
strangest stories that you find everywhere in Africa in shamanic secret 
societies and other places where the remnant of our ancient knowledge and 
wisdom are still preserved. It is that, originally, the Earth was covered by 
a very thick blanket of fog or mist. That people could not actually see the 
Sun in the sky, except as a nimble of light. And they also saw the Moon at 
night as a gentle claw of light in the sky, because there was this heavy 
mist. And the rain was always falling in a steady drizzle. There was no 
thunder, however. There were no storms.

The world was thickly covered with great forests, great jungles, and people 
lived in peace on Earth at that time. People were happy and it is said, at 
that time, we human beings did not have the power of speech. We only made 
funny sounds like happy monkeys and baboons, but we did not have speech as 
we now have it. And in those centuries, people spoke to each other through 
their mind.

A man could call his wife thinking about her, thinking about the shape of 
her face, the smell of her body, and the feel of hair as a woman. That a 
hunter would go out into the bush and call out for animals to come, and the 
animals would select one of their number which was old and tired, and this 
animal would offer itself to the hunter so that he may kill it quickly and 
take it as meat to his cave.

There was no violence against animals. There was no violence against Nature 
by human beings at that time. Man used to ask for food from Nature. He used 
to come to a tree and think about fruit, and the tree would allow some of 
its fruit to fall to the ground, and man would take it.

And then it is said, however, that when the Chitauli came to Earth, they 
arrived in terrible vessels which flew through the air, vessels which were 
shaped like great bowls and which made a terrible noise and a terrible fire 
in the sky. And the Chitauli told human beings, whom they gathered together 
by force with whips of lightning, that they were great gods from the sky and 
that from now on they would receive a number of great gifts from the god.

These so-called gods, who were like human beings, but very tall, with a long 
tail, and with terrible burning eyes, some of them had two eyes-yellow, 
bright eyes-some had three eyes, the red, round eye being in the center of 
their forehead. These creatures then took away the great powers that human 
beings had the power of speaking through the mind only, the power of moving 
objects with their mind only, the power of seeing into the future and into 
their past, and the power to travel, spiritually, to different worlds.

All of these great powers the Chitauli took away from human beings and they 
gave human beings a new power, now, the power of speech. But, human beings 
found, to their horror, that the power of speech divided human beings, 
instead of uniting them, because the Chitauli cunningly created different 
languages, and they caused a great quarrel between people. Also, the 
Chitauli did something which has never been done before they gave human 
beings people to rule over them, and they said, "These are your kings, these 
are your chiefs. They have our blood in them. They are our children, and you 
must listen to these people because they will speak on our behalf. If you 
don't, we are going punish you very terribly."

Before the coming of the Chitauli, before the coming of the Imbulu 
creatures, human beings were spiritually one. But when the Chitauli came, 
human beings became divided, both spiritually as well as by language.

And then, human beings were given strange new feelings by the Chitauli. 
Human beings started to feel unsafe, and so they started making villages 
with very strong fences of wood around them. Human beings started becoming 
country makers. In other words, they started creating tribes and tribe 
lands, which had borders, which they defended against any possible enemy. 
Human beings became ambitious and greedy and they wanted to acquire wealth 
in the form of cattle, and sea shells.

And, another thing the Chitauli forced human beings to do, they forced human 
beings to mine into the Earth. The Chitauli activated human women and made 
them to discover minerals and metals of certain types. Women discovered 
copper; women discovered gold; women discovered silver. And, eventually, 
they were guided by the Chitauli to alloy these metals and to create new 
metals which had never existed in Nature before, metals such as bronze and 
brass and others.

Now, the Chitauli, further, removed the sacred rain-bringing mist from the 
sky and for the first time since creation, human beings looked up and saw 
stars, and the Chitauli told human beings that they have been wrong in 
believing that God dwelt under the Earth. "From now on," the Chitauli told 
people of this Earth, "the people of Earth must believe that God is in 
Heaven and they must do things here on Earth which would please this God who 
is in Heaven."

You see, originally, human beings had believed that God was underground, 
that she was a very great mother who dwelt under the Earth because they saw 
all the green things growing from under the Earth-the grass came from below 
ground, the trees grew from below ground, and the people had believed, 
therefore, that the dead people who died go underground. But when the 
Chitauli turned humans' eyes towards the sky, people started believing, now, 
that God is in the sky and that those who die from this Earth don't go 
underground, but go up into the sky.

And to this day, sir, throughout Africa wherever you go as an investigator, 
you will find this amazing-these two amazing ideas which conflict with each 
other.

Many African tribes believe in what is called Midzimu or Badimo. Now, the 
word Midzimu or Badimo means "them who are in the sky". But, in Zulu-land, 
amongst my people, you find this amazing schism going hand-in-hand. There 
are Zulus who believe that the dead ones are the Abapansi, which means "the 
ones who are below, who are under the Earth". Then there is another idea 
which says Abapezulu. The word Abapezulu means "those who are above", and 
the word Abapansi, which is the oldest name for the spirits of the dead, 
means "they who are under the Earth".

So, even today, sir, all over Africa amongst hundreds of tribes, you find 
this strange double-belief that the dead go into the sky, and side-by-side 
with the belief that the dead die and go under the Earth. This belief that 
the dead die and go under the Earth is said to date to the days when our 
people believed that God was a woman, the great Cosmic Mother. And, it is 
contrasted by the Abapezulu belief that God is a man who dwells in the sky.

Now, sir, another thing that the Chitauli told our people, it is said, is 
that we human beings are here on Earth to change the Earth and to make it 
suitable for "God" to come down one day and dwell in it. And it is said that 
they who work to change this Earth and make it safe for the serpent god, the 
Chitauli, to come and dwell in it, will be rewarded with great power and 
with great wealth.

Sir, as I have watched over many years of study, over many years of 
initiation of the mysteries of African shamanism, wisdom, and knowledge, I 
have found myself wondering why we human beings are actually destroying the 
Earth on which we live. We are doing something which is only done by one 
other species of animal, namely, the African elephant, which utterly 
destroys every tree in the place in which it dwells.

We human beings are doing exactly this. And wherever you go in Africa, where 
once there were great ancient civilizations, you find desert. For example, 
there is the Kalahari desert in South Africa, and under the sands of that 
desert, I have found the ruins of ancient cities, which means that human 
beings turned this stretch of land, which was once green and fertile, into a 
desert. And, in days when I was with explorers and safari people in the 
Sahara regions of Africa, I also found evidence of unbelievably ancient 
human habitation in places where there is nothing now but angry rock and 
whispering sand.

In other words, the Sahara Desert was once a fertile country and was turned 
into a desert by human beings. Why? I must ask myself, again and again, why 
are human beings being driven by insecurity, greed, and lust of power to 
turn the Earth into a desert in which, ultimately, no human being would ever 
be able to live? Why?

Although we are all aware of the terrible dangers that this will bring 
about, why are we cutting huge areas of jungle in Africa? Why are we on 
Earth carrying out the instructions which the Chitauli programmed into us?  
Although my mind refuses to accept this, the answer is a terrible yes, yes, 
yes.

Amongst the many people of wisdom who honor me with their friendship, is a 
man of great knowledge who lives in Israel, Dr. Sitchin. [Editor's note 
This reference is to Dr. Zecharia Sitchin, author of many provocative books 
about the interaction of extraterrestrial peoples with Earth humans in very 
ancient times.] According to the ancient books which were written by the 
people of Sumeria, out of clay, gods came out of the sky and forced human 
beings to work for them, to mine gold for them. This story is confirmed by 
African legends throughout Africa, that gods came out of the sky and made us 
into their slaves, and they made us into slaves in such a way that we would 
never realize that we are slaves.

One other thing that our people say is that the Chitauli prey upon us like 
vultures. They raise some of us, they fill some of us with great anger and 
great ambition, and they make these people they've raised into great 
warriors who make terrible war. But, in the end, the Chitauli do not allow 
these great leaders, these great war chiefs and kings, to die peacefully. 
The warrior chief is used to make as much war as possible, to kill as many 
of his people, and those he calls enemies, as possible, and then, in the 
end, the warrior chief dies a terrible death, with his blood being spilled 
by others.

And this phenomenon I have seen in my people's history, again and again and 
again. Our great King Shaka Zulu, he fought over 200 great wars during the 
reign of some 30-something years. And then, he was slaughtered and he died a 
violent death. He died a broken man who, because of the death of his mother, 
had no longer the power to win any more battles.

And, before Shaka Zulu, there was another king who trained Shaka to become 
the great king that he was. That king's name was Dingiswayo. Dingiswayo had 
fought great wars trying to unite the Zulu people into one great tribe. He 
had seen the White people of the Cape and he thought that, by uniting his 
people into one huge nation, he would be able to repel the threat to his 
people which the White people posed.

But, what happened was, after winning many battles of uniting many tribes, 
King Dingiswayo suddenly became striken by an eye disease which made him 
almost blind. And he hid this secret that he could no longer see. But, that 
terrible secret was discovered by a woman, a queen of another tribe, called 
Ntombazi. Ntombazi took a battle ax and beheaded Dingiswayo with one blow, 
after she had lured him into her hut and given him food and beer to drink.

There is also a similar phenomenon with great White leaders Napoleon, in 
Europe, who died a miserable death on his lonely island in the Atlantic 
Ocean; Hitler, also in Europe, who died a terrible death by putting the gun 
in the mouth and killing himself, we are told; Attila the Hun, who was 
killed by a woman, and many other great leaders who came to a sticky end 
after giving as much death and misery to as many people as they could.

King Shaka was stabbed to death by his half-brother, who used on him the 
same type of spear that he had designed to kill people as quickly as 
possible. And, Julius Caesar also met a similar fate after he, like our 
Shaka Zulu, had conquered many nations.

Always the warrior hero dies a death that he, really, should not die. King 
Arthur, in England, was killed by his own son, murdered after a long and 
courageous reign. I could go on and on and on.

Now, all these things, if you bring them together, they show that whether 
people laugh at this or not, whether people scoff at this or not, there is a 
certain power that is guiding human beings toward the dark river of 
self-destruction. And the sooner many of us become aware of this, the 
better, perhaps, we might be able to deal with it.

Martin Do you believe that these beings are around the world equally, or 
are they primarily focused in Africa?

Credo Mutwa Sir, I believe that these creatures are everywhere on Earth, 
and with respect, sir, although I hate talking about myself so much, I am a 
person who has traveled to many parts of the world. I have been to your 
country, the United States, sir. I have been to Australia. I have been to 
Japan, amongst other countries.

And no matter where I have gone, sir, I have found people telling me about 
creatures like this. For example, in 1997, I visited Australia, sir, and I 
traveled a lot to try and find the Black people of Australia, the Aborigine. 
And when I did find them, they told me a number of things that astonished me 
very, very much. The same things that I'd found in Japan, I found in Taiwan. 
Everywhere where there are still shaman and traditional healers, you find 
these amazing stories.

Now, let me tell you, sir, what I found in Australia alone. This, that the 
Australian Aborigine people, who call themselves Coorie, which means "our 
people" The Coorie people of Australia believe in a great creating god 
called Byamie, sir. A Coorie shaman, in fact, several of them, drew me 
pictures of this Byamie, and one of them showed me a rock painting 
representing this strange creator god who came out of the stars. And when 
they placed their drawing in front of me, what they showed was a Chitauli. I 
recognized it from my African initiation. It had a large head. It had large 
eyes, which were stressed by the artist. It had no mouth, and it had long 
arms and incredibly long legs. Sir, this was a typical depiction of a 
Chitauli which I knew from my own people in Africa.

I asked myself "Why?". Here I am in a country many thousands of miles away 
from Africa, and here I am seeing a being known as the Biamai or Bimi, who 
is a creature with which I, the African, am familiar.

Amongst the Native American people, sir, I found, for example, mongst 
certain tribes in America, tribes such as the Hopi people, and those people 
who stay in those buildings called a pueblo, I found that these people - 
they have got what are called Katchina creatures, where people wear masks 
and disguise themselves as certain creatures. And some of these Katchinas 
are very, very tall, with a huge round head.

Exactly as we have in Africa, I found similar creatures in America. In 
Africa we call these creatures Egwugwu, or, we call them by another name, 
called Chinyawu. The Katchina of the Native American people, and the 
Chinyawu of our people, are identical beings. Now, why should this be? When 
were American Native people and Africans in contact? When? This is one of 
the greatest mysteries of all time, sir. It is one of many things that I 
found throughout the world which left me utterly amazed.

There ARE such creatures, and the sooner skeptics amongst us face up to this 
fact, the better it shall be. Why is human-kind not progressing?  Why are we 
running around in a great circle of self-destruction and mutual-destruction?

People are basically good; I believe this. People don't want to start wars. 
People don't want to destroy the world in which they stay, but there are 
creatures, or there is power that is driving we human beings toward 
self-annihilation. And the sooner we recognize this, the better.

Just now, I live in Africa. Here are my people. Here is my home. But I see 
Africa being destroyed in wars that make no sense whatsoever to me as an 
African. I look at India which, like Africa, suffered the scourge of 
colonialism by the French, the English, and other European powers. But 
India, through her independence as a country, has achieved the things which 
we, Africa, have failed to achieve. Why?

India has exploded the atomic bomb and is today one of the feared nations of 
this world. India has launched satellites into orbit. India, although she 
has the same problems as Africa has-a burgeoning population, religion as 
well as tribal strife-although India has got an incredibly poor section of 
her population, as well as an incredibly rich one, she has achieved things 
that Africa has failed to achieve.

Now, I ask myself "Why? Why?" Because India was established by people from 
Africa, and I don't think, sir, as the Black races about this. This is a 
fact that, thousands of years ago, people from Africa laid the foundation of 
the greatest civilization of India, as well as other countries in Southeast 
Asia. There is overwhelming  archeological evidence of this. But, why is 
Africa drowning in war, in disease, and in hunger? Why?

Many times, sir, I sit in my hut and I cry when I see diseases like AIDS 
destroying us; when I see senseless wars destroying those countries in 
Africa which had thrived for thousands of years.

Say, Ethiopia is a country that has been free for thousands of years. 
Ethiopia was once the school of all of Africa. Nigeria was once a great 
country with a long tradition of self-government-long, long before the White 
man came to Africa. But today, all of these countries and many others are 
being destroyed.

Today, sir, there are parts of Africa which have been totally depopulated by 
war and by the disease called AIDS, a disease which shows every sign of 
being a man-made disease. I ask myself, "Who or what is destroying Africa, 
and why?"

Because there are tribes in those villages I lived in, who assisted my 
search for knowledge, before the Second World War and after. But today these 
tribes no longer exist anymore. They are gone, dispersed, totally 
exterminated in senseless wars that gain the Black people nothing.

I am in South Africa now. Here I was born, and here I was to die. But I see 
my country falling apart like a rotting mango. South Africa was once a 
powerful country. She had a powerful army. She had huge industries, which 
were producing everything from locomotives to little radios. But today my 
country has become a drug-sodden, crime-ridden piece of rubbish. Why? A 
country doesn't get destroyed almost overnight, unless there are definite 
forces which are determined to obliterate it.

I recently saw, sir, the destruction of another country inside South Africa. 
The country is Lesotho. This country, Lesotho, is inhabited by some of the 
oldest and the wisest tribes in South Africa. Amongst them is a tribe called 
the Bakwama. The Bakwama people are so ancient that they actually describe 
to you a mysterious land of huge pointed mountains, a mysterious land ruled 
by a great god, who had the head of a human being and the body of the lion. 
[One immediately thinks of the Sphinx in Egypt.]

The Bakwama call this country Ntswama-tfatfi. This land that they name 
Ntswama-tfatfi means "the land of the Sun-hawk". The hawk is the bird of 
prey in Heaven-you know? Now, these Bakwama people did, in South Africa, 
know about the land of Egypt where they say their ancestors came from. And 
they call this mysterious land of the gods, "the land of the Sun-hawk, or 
the Sun-eagle", which is exactly how the Egyptians portrayed their country, 
sir. They portrayed it as "the land of Hor", the god Horus in Greece.

Now, when Princess Diana died, in 1997, I was one of the first Black people 
to suspect that Princess Diana had been murdered, and I will tell you why 
this thing happened, sir. Because, about a year or 8 months before Diana 
died, there died a king in Lesotho, King Moshoeshoe II. King Moshoeshoe II's 
death was detail-for-detail identical to Princess Diana's death.

Consider this please, all of you who might find my words incredible 
Princess Diana died in a tunnel, but the king of Lesotho died in a ravine. 
He had gone far away to investigate a problem in his cattle ranch. It was 
found that he was overdue, and when the people went to search for him, they 
heard from various boys who were looking after the cattle in the 
Basotho-land mountains, that the boys had heard what sounded like a rifle 
shot, and when the men went to look where the rifle shot had sounded, they 
found the king's car off the road and deep in the ravine.

They went down there and they found that the king of Lesotho was in his car. 
He was strapped in a safety belt, but he had a terrible injury at the back 
of his head. And they found that the king's driver was dead at the steering 
wheel. But, the two men who were the king's bodyguards, who were riding in 
the king's vehicle in the seat directly behind the king, had escaped without 
a scratch. One of the men entered the car and pulled out the dying king.

The king apologized to them for messing-up their hands with his blood, which 
was a tradition, that a dying king must thank the people who are trying to 
get him out of where he is. And he must apologize to them for putting them 
into trouble, because anyone who handles the sacred blood of the king is in 
spiritual trouble of some kind after that.

Then, when the king's car was brought out of the ravine, it was found that 
there was a hole, like a bullet hole, in one of the tires of the car. And 
that car's tire was mysteriously removed, afterwards, when the king's car 
was stored not in a safe place, but in a yard outside where anybody could 
get at it. And, when an autopsy was conducted on the body of the driver of 
the king's car, it was found that the man had been so drunk as to not have 
been able to drive the car at all. And third, the man who had driven the 
king's car and who died at the wheel had not been the man who usually drives 
the king's car.

Now, sir, do you see this mystery now? The death of the Lesotho king matched 
that of Princess Diana, which was to follow it. In many other amazing 
details than I have detailed now, and so the nation of Lesotho was reduced 
to a retch after the king's death, when rioting took place as a result of a 
general election which provisional party members prospected and controlled.

Today Lesotho is an economically moribund nation. And Lesotho is a country 
which was the place of a strange experiment - an experiment which consisted 
of the building of a huge dam, whose purpose was to supply South Africa, and 
not Lesotho, with large quantities of water. And we have recently heard ugly 
rumors emanating from that country, that somebody was bribed to facilitate 
the building of this huge dam where the water of a small nation is being 
used to supply, to supplement the water supplies of a highly industrialized 
nation.

There are many strange things, sir, which have taken place in South Africa, 
and are taking place, as well as in other parts of Africa, which make no 
sense to me as an African. There are wars which take place in Africa, where 
after an African country has gained its independence from the colonial 
power, then a force of rebels pick up weapons against that country's 
government, but instead of the rebels fighting the government to the bitter 
end, what happens again and again is that the rebel forces split into 
various groups which end up fighting not only the government in power, but 
also each other.

And the result is that, in several African countries, the country is so 
destroyed that, no matter which party wins, the people lose. The United 
Nations are caused to be called in, in order to create some semblance of 
peace. In other words, Africans have now started fighting wars which bring 
about not victory, but the destruction of themselves, as well as their people.

I would like to draw your attention, sir, to the senseless tide which is 
still raging in the Sudan, as well as other parts of Africa. I would like to 
draw your attention, sir, to the longest and most terrible civil war which 
is destroying the southern parts of the Sudan. I would like to draw your 
attention, and that of your readers, sir, to the terrible war which is 
destroying Angola. And one part of the world, to the East of Southern 
Africa, has been so raped by many years of war that there are now places 
where you don't even hear a bird-thing. All living forms of life have been 
wiped-out in that place. Now, why?

And then, I have found that these countries that are being destroyed by 
senseless wars which are totally out of character for us Africans, and I 
speak as an African, are those countries which, had they been left alone, 
could have supplied the whole of Africa with food, with water, and with 
valuable minerals. I am told, sir, that under the surface of Angola, under 
the plains of Angola, are deposits of coal which are without equal in this 
world. I am further told that in parts of Angola there are deposits of oil 
which are second only to those reserves of oil which are in the Middle East.

The Sudan is a country which I visited several times during, and even after, 
the Second World War. In the Sudan there was so much food that you received 
free food from the villagers, as you traveled through the Sudan. Today, 
southern Sudan is a starvation-torn, battle of rage hellhole where children 
die of diarrhea in the bush while the vultures and buzzards wait on the 
branches of trees to feast. Africa is being systematically and deliberately 
destroyed by a power of such relentlessness that it is continuing the 
destruction even now. But, this power is getting desperate.

Martin Excuse me. Did you say there was coal in Angola or gold?

Credo Mutwa Coal, sir, coal. There are diamonds in Angola, sir. And I have 
learned from reliable people that there is more oil under Angola, in certain 
places, than there is in certain parts of the Middle East.

Is this what Africa is being destroyed for? Is this what our nations are 
being slaughtered for - for coal under the surface, for diamonds? If so, who 
is this intelligence that is behind this? Are people less valuable than 
minerals? Are people less valuable than oil?

Because, sir, genocide, worse than anything that Hitler ever committed upon 
the Jewish people, is taking place in Africa NOW, and the people of America 
don't seem to care a damn. Why? We are the best friends that the United 
States has got. We are the best people. We buy American products. Our 
children want to look like American children. Our kids wear jeans, sir, and 
they even speak with American accents, because you American people are our 
role model. Why are you allowing us to be slaughtered?  Why?  Why?

Not only are we being killed by war, sir, we are being killed by drugs. 
There were no drugs in South Africa during the days of the apartheid 
government. Now, under our democratic government, our country has become one 
drug-sodden cess pit. Why?

Today, sir, and I speak as a traditional shaman, one of my purposes is to 
try and help people with a drug problem. Sir, I can help a young African who 
is abusing marijuana or hashish. I can help a young African who is dependent 
upon Dakwa. But, sir, I am useless, my skills are rubbish and I fail 
again-and so do many like me-to help young Black people who are addicted to 
a new type of drug which is called "crack". It is a hard-looking drug. It's 
like hardened chocolate when you see it, and this thing is so addictive that 
no shaman can help a young victim of this drug.

I am asking the people of the United States of America, I am asking my Black 
brothers and my Black sisters over there, why are you allowing the country 
which is your mother to be exterminated?

I don't care what skeptics say, sir. Please forgive me when I really get hot 
under the collar. I don't care what skeptics say, but there IS a force 
destroying Africa and I am not buying the nonsense that it is the bankers of 
the IMF and other big banks. You don't kill the goose that gives you the 
golden egg, so why would the bankers want to destroy Africa?  There is 
another force behind these people, a terrible, alien force, which does 
things behind the scenes which-and the sooner we recognize this, the 
better-sir, it is very common for human beings who are in trouble to blame 
forces other than those inside themselves.

But, I have studied the situation in Africa since the end of the Second 
World War, and before, and I have evidence that points to an alien force at 
work in Africa.

What, who is wiping out Africa's oldest tribes?

Please, sir, let me tell you a thing that cuts my soul. May I please?

Martin Please, continue.

Credo Mutwa Please, I'm sorry to talk so much. Please forgive me. I belong 
to the Zulu nation, a nation of warriors, a nation of wise people. My 
people, sir, have never been studied by White anthropologists thoroughly, 
but the Zulu people knew things that, if I were to share with your readers, 
they would be amazed.

Let me show you this. The Zulu people KNEW, amongst many things, that it is 
the Earth which moves around the Sun, and not the other way around. They 
said, to explain this thing to the initiated, that the Earth is a feminine 
creature and the Sun is a male creature, and, therefore, the Earth is the 
mobile one who dances around the Sun-the beautiful princess who dances 
around the fiery king who is the Sun. Our people knew that the Earth was a 
sphere. Our people knew about germs and their function. When the White man 
came to Africa, where did this incredible knowledge come from? I do not know.

The people of America and the people of Europe say that it was Albert 
Einstein who came out with the idea that time and space are one and the same 
thing. My answer to that is, "No!"

My people, the Zulus, knew that space and time was one thing. In the 
language of the Zulu, one of the names for space is umkati. And the Zulu 
name for time is isikati. Now, our people knew that space and time were one 
and the same thing, hundreds of years before Einstein's birth.

And furthermore, our people believed, like the Dogon people, that there are 
24 planets in our part of space which are inhabited by intelligent creatures 
of various states. And, this knowledge has never been recorded in any book, 
and I and my aunt are the only surviving high sanusi [shaman] in South 
Africa who are the keepers of this knowledge. My aunt is still alive. She is 
about 90-something years old, and I am now close to dead, suffering from 
diabetes-a terrible killer of African people nowadays.

And, what I am trying to tell you is that, although my people had this 
tremendous knowledge, which has never been written down in any book, the 
Zulu people today, a huge percentage of them, are victims of HIV or outright 
AIDS. And it has been calculated, sir, in the next 50 years, fully 
three-fourths of the Zulu people in Natal are going to die. And I am the 
keeper of sacred objects which I inherited from my grandfather. I am, from 
my mother's side, a direct descendant of the last true Zulu king, Dingame. 
And, my duty should be to protect my people from anything that threatens 
their existence.

Look, please, sir. Anyone who studies humanity with love, with 
understanding, and with care, recognizes the fact that there is a shining 
God which is struggling to be born within each and every one of us. We are 
trying to fight back, although many of us are not yet aware of this. We are 
developing an attitude of wanting to protect our planet, no matter who or 
what we are.

There are chiefs in Africa who fine you very heavily if they see you 
destroying a tree unnecessarily. This thing was common in the past, but it 
disappeared with the coming of the White people; but now it has come back 
again.

Man is becoming, is struggling to become a more advanced, more caring being, 
and the aliens are not going to take this lying down. They are going to 
cause us to kill each other, again. And I am worried about what is going to 
happen.

Sir, I can show you many strange things that African people did to protect 
themselves against the Grey aliens. The things that our people did were not 
the result of superstition. They were the result of terrible personal 
experience.

One day I hope to share with you, sir, the story of how I got "taken", we 
say. We believe, sir, that the Mantindane ("the tormentor"), the Greys, are 
really servants of the Chitauli. And that they, contrary to what White 
people think-White people think a wrong thing, sir, many-that the Mantindane 
are experimenting with us. They are NOT. I repeat, they are not.

Anyone who has been through the hells of these beings will tell you that 
there is nothing experimental in what they do. There is a cold, cold, 
cold-blooded resolve, and they are not doing what they do to us for 
themselves, they are doing what they do to us for greater creatures than 
they are. Please, sir, can you give me a little time to share with you, 
briefly, what happened to me?

Martin Oh yes, absolutely, please. We have all the time you need.

Credo Mutwa Sir, it was an ordinary day, like any other day. It was a 
beautiful day in the eastern mountains of Zimbabwe, which are called 
Inyangani. These are mountains to the East of Zimbabwe.

Now, I had been instructed by my teacher to go and find a special herb which 
we were going to use in the healing of a certain initiate who was badly ill. 
And my teacher, a woman called Mrs. Moyo, was Ndebele, from Zimbabwe, once 
known as Rhodesia.

I was looking for this herb, and I was not thinking about anything, and I 
had no belief whatsoever in these creatures. I had never encountered them 
before, and although we African people believe in many things, I was mighty 
skeptical, even about certain entities that we believed in at that time, 
because I had never encountered anything like that before.

And all of a sudden, sir, I noticed that the temperature around me had 
dropped, although it was a very hot African day. I suddenly noticed that it 
was now cold and there was, what appeared to be, a bright blue mist swirling 
all around me, getting between me and the eastern landscape. I remember 
wondering, stupidly, what this thing meant, because I had just begun to dig 
one of the herbs I had found.

Suddenly, I found myself in a very strange place, a place that looked like a 
tunnel lined with metal. I had worked in mines before, and where I found 
myself appeared to be a mine tunnel which was lined with silver-greyish metal.

I was lying on what appeared to be a very heavy and very large working bench 
or a working table, sir. But yet, I was not chained to the table. I was just 
lying there and my trousers were missing, and so were the heavy boots that I 
always wore when I was out in the bush. And all of a sudden, in this 
strange, tunnel-like room, I saw what appeared to be dull, heady-looking, 
grey, dull-like creatures which were moving toward me.

There were lights in this place, but not lights as we know them. They seemed 
to be patches of glowing stuff. And there was something above the far 
entrance which looked like writing, that writing against the silver-grey 
surface, and these creatures were coming at me but I was hypnotized, just as 
if the witchcraft had been put upon my head.

But I watched the creatures as they were coming towards me. I didn't know 
what they were. I was frightened, but I couldn't move my arms or my legs. I 
just lay there like a goat on a sacrificial altar. And when the creatures 
came towards me, I felt fear inside me. They were short creatures, about the 
size of African Pigmy. They have very large heads, very thin arms, and very 
thin legs.

I noticed, sir, because I am an artist, a painter, that these creatures were 
built all wrong from an artist's point of view. Their limbs were too long 
for their body, and their necks were very thin, and their heads were almost 
as large as full-grown watermelons. They had strange eyes, which looked like 
goggles of some kind. They had no noses, as we have, only small holes on 
either side of the raised area between their eyes. Their mouth had no lips, 
only thin cuts as if made by a razor.

And while I was looking at these creatures, sir, in amazed fascination, I 
felt something close to my head, about my head. And when I looked up, there 
was another creature, a slightly bigger one than the other, and it was 
standing above my head and was looking down at me.

I looked up into its eyes and I was totally hypnotized, and you know, I was 
spellbound. I looked into the thing's eyes and I noticed that the creature 
wanted me to keep looking into his eyes. I looked and saw that, through 
these covers over their eyes, I could see the creature's real eyes behind 
this black, goggle-like cover. It's eyes were round, with straight pupils, 
like those of a cat. And the thing was not moving it's head. It was 
breathing; I could see that. I could see little nostrils moving, closing and 
shutting, but sir, if anybody says to me that I smelled like that creature, 
really, I would konk him one on the face.

Martin (Laughter)

Credo Mutwa The creature smelled like nobody's business. It had a strange 
smell, a throat-tightening, chemical smell, which smelled like rotten eggs, 
and also like hot copper [sulfur], a very strong smell.

And the creature saw me looking at it, and it looked down at me and, all of 
a sudden, I felt a terrible, awful pain on my left thigh, as if a sword had 
been driven into my left thigh. I screamed in pain, horrible, calling out 
for my mother, and the creature placed it's hand over my mouth. You know, 
sir, it was like-if you want to know how that felt, please sir, take the leg 
of a chicken, a live chicken, and place it against your lips. That was how 
the creature's hand felt upon my mouth.

It had thin, long fingers, which had more joints than my human fingers have. 
And the thumb was in the wrong place. Each one of the fingers ended in a 
black claw, almost like certain African birds. The thing was telling me to 
be quiet. And how long the pain went on, sir, I don't know. I screamed and I 
screamed and I screamed, again.

And then, all of a sudden, something was pulled out of my flesh, and I 
looked down and saw my thigh covered with blood, and I saw that one of the 
creatures-there were four of them, other than the one standing over my 
head-they wore tight fitting overalls, which were silvery-grey in color, and 
their flesh resembled the flesh of certain types of fish that we find in the 
sea off South Africa.

And the creature standing above my head appeared to be a female. It was 
somehow different than the others. It was taller, bigger,  although it 
didn't have breasts like a woman, it appeared to be feminine. And the others 
appeared to be afraid of it, I don't know how I can describe this.

And then, while this terrible thing was going on, another of the creatures 
came up to me - it walked sideways, in a slightly jerking way, as if it was 
drunk - it walked up along the table, to my right side, and it stood next to 
the one standing above my head. And before I knew what was happening, this 
creature stuck something that was like a small, silver, ball-point pen with 
a cable at one end, it pushed this thing, coldly, into my right nostril.

Sir, the pain was out of this world. Blood splattered all over. I choked and 
tried to scream, but the blood got into my throat. It was a nightmare. Then, 
it pulled the thing out and I tried to fight and sit up.

The pain was terrible, but the other thing above my head placed it's hand 
upon my forehead and kept me down with very little force. I was choking and 
trying to spit out the blood, and then I managed to turn my head to the 
right to spit out the blood, which I did, and then what the creatures did to 
me, sir, I don't know.

All I do know is that the pain went away, and in place of the pain, strange 
visions flooded my head, visions of cities, some of which I recognized from 
my travels-but, cities which were half-destroyed, the buildings having their 
tops blown away, with windows like empty eye-sockets in a human skull. I saw 
these visions again and again. All the buildings that I saw were 
half-drowned in a reddish, muddish water.

It was as if there had been a flood and the buildings were sticking up out 
of this great flood, partly destroyed by a disaster of some kind, and it was 
a terrible sight.

And then, before I knew it, one of the creatures, the one standing next to 
my feet, drove something into my organ of manhood, but here there was no 
pain, just a violent irritation, as if I was making love to something or 
someone.

And then, when the creature withdrew the thing, which was like a small, 
black tube which it had forced into my organ of manhood, I did something 
which produced a strange result, and I did not do it intentionally. I think 
it was-my bladder opened, and I urinated straight into the chest of the 
creature which had pulled the thing out of my organ.

And if I had shot the creature, it would never have reacted as it did. It 
jerked away and nearly fell, and then it recovered and staggered away like a 
drunken insect, and left the room. I don't know whether my urine did it; I 
don't know. But that is what happened.

Then, after a while, the other creatures went away, leaving me with a dull 
pain in my nostril, with blood on my thigh, and the table wet with urine. 
And the thing standing above my head had not moved. It just stood there with 
it's right hand touching it's left shoulder, in a strangely beautiful and 
feminine way. It stood there looking at me. There was no expression in its 
face. I never saw any of the creatures talk or make any sound of any kind. 
All I do know is that they appeared to be mute.

And then, out of somewhere there arrived two other creatures, one of which 
was made entirely out of metal. Even in my worst nightmares, I still see 
this creature. It was tall. It was big. And the area in which we were was 
too small for it. It walked with a slight stoop, moving forward, and it was 
definitely not a living thing. It was a metal creature, a robot of some 
kind. And it came and it stood near my feet, its whole body clumsily bent, 
looking down at me. There was no mouth. There was no nose. There were just 
two bright eyes, which seemed to change color, and seemed to move somehow, 
like the crackling of an electrical device.

And then, behind this huge, bent creature, came a creature which surprised 
me. It was very, very, very, very swollen, sir, in appearance. It had pink 
skin. It had a blondish, very human body. It had very bright, blue, slanting 
eyes. It had hair which looked like nylon fiber of some kind. It had high 
cheek-bones and an almost human mouth, with full lips and a small, pointed 
chin. The creature, sir, was definitely a female but like an artist and a 
painter, which I am, and also a sculptor, I noticed that the creature was 
totally out of proportion. It was wrong.

First, its breasts were thin and pointed, and set too high upon its chest, 
not where a normal woman's breasts would be. Its body was powerful, almost 
fat, but its legs were too short and its arms were too short in proportion 
to the rest of its body. And it came towards me, looked down at me, and 
before I knew what it was doing, somehow it mated with me. It was a horrible 
experience, sir, even worse than what had been done to me before. But even 
now, the trauma of that day had affected my life even now, exactly 40 years 
later.

And after that, when the creatures had gone, leaving only the one creature 
which had been standing about my head, the creature standing about my head 
shook me by the hair, it gripped me by the head and forced me to stand off 
the table and to get off the table. I did that, and such was the state that 
I was in, that I fell onto my knees and hands, onto the floor.

And I noticed that that floor was strange. It had moving patterns in it, 
which kept on changing and shifting-purple, red, and greenish patterns, on a 
metal-grey background. And the creature pulled me by the hair, again, 
forcing me to stand up, and it pushed me roughly and made me follow it.

Sir, it would take too long for me to describe what I saw in that strange 
place, as the creature pushed me, roughly, from room to room. Even now my 
mind can't grasp what it was that I saw. Amongst many things that I saw were 
huge cylindrical objects, made of what appeared to be glass of some kind. 
And in these object, cylinders, which reached from the roof to the floor of 
the place we were going through, was what appeared to be a sort-of a 
greyish-pink liquid. And in this liquid I saw small editions of the alien 
creatures floating round and round, like disgusting little frogs, inside 
this liquid.

I couldn't understand what it was that I was being shown. But then, in the 
last room I was led through, I saw people, and other strange creatures, 
which, even now, my mind can't make head or sense out of, lying on the table.

And I passed a White man, a real White man, who smelled like a human being, 
was smelling of sweat, urine, excrement, and fear. This White man was lying 
on a table like the one I had been lying on, and I looked into his eyes and 
he looked into mine as I went by.

And then I found myself out in the bush. I found that my trousers were 
missing. There was a terrible pain in my left thigh. There was a pain in my 
penis which was starting to swell, and when I tried to pass water, the pain 
was excruciating. I took off my shirt and I used it as a loin-cloth and I 
walked through the bush.

I first met a group of young Rhodesian Black people who guided me to my 
teacher's village. And when I arrived outside that village, I smelled so 
horribly that every dog in the village came yapping and snarling to tear me 
to pieces. And it was only my teacher and her other students and the 
villagers who saved me on that day. My teacher and the villagers were not at 
all surprised by what I had to tell them. They accepted it, sir. They said 
to me that what had happened to me had happened to many other people before, 
and that I was lucky to return alive, because many people have disappeared 
in that part of the land, never to be seen again-White people, Black people, 
and so on.

Sir, I'm cutting a very long story short. In the year following, 1960, I was 
delivering parcels in the city of Johannesburg. You see, I was working in a 
curio shop, when a White man shouted at me to stop.

I assumed that the White man was a secret policeman who wanted to look into 
my identity documents. And when I tried to produce the documents, he told 
me, angrily, that he didn't want to see my stinking documents.

Sir, he asked me this question "Listen, where the hell have I seen you 
before? Who are you?"

I said, "I am nobody, sir; I am just a working man."

He said, "Don't bullshit me, man; who the hell are you? Where did I see you 
before?"

And then I looked at him. I recognized him - his long, straggly, 
golden-brown hair, his ridiculous mustache and beard. I remembered him - his 
blue eyes blood-shot and naked-terror, shining upon his eyes, and his skin 
as pale as that of a goat.

I said, "Meneer", which is the African's way. "Meneer - I saw you in 
Rhodesia in a certain place underground." And if I had hit that White man 
with my fist, he wouldn't have reacted the way he did, sir. He turned away 
and walked with a terrible expression, and he disappeared on the other side 
of the street.

Now, roughly, this is what happened to me, sir, but it is not a unique 
experience at all.

Since that time I met many, many, many people who have had the identical 
experience that I said, and most of them were traditional Black men and 
women who can neither read nor write. They were coming to me to seek my help 
as a shaman, but I was, myself, looking for somebody wiser than I to tell me 
what had happened to me, exactly. Because, sir, when I get caught by the 
Mantindane, you become so traumatized, your life becomes so changed, you 
become so embarrassed and ashamed of yourself, you develop a self-hatred 
which you cannot understand, and there are subtle changes in your life which 
make no sense to you.

One You develop a strange love for humankind. You want to shake everybody 
by the shoulders and say, "Hey, wake-up people; we are not alone. I KNOW we 
are not alone!"

And, you develop a feeling that your life is no longer your own; and 
furthermore, you become compelled with a strange edge to move from place to 
place, to travel. You become worried about the future; you become worried 
about people.

And another thing, sir, which I hoped one day you would send people to me to 
see for their own self you develop knowledge which doesn't belong to you. 
You develop an understanding of space, an  understanding of time and 
creation which makes no sense to you as a human being-it is a state, after 
your terrible torture, after substances have been removed from you, some 
kind of exchange takes place where you suddenly know things that the 
Mantindane would know, which ordinary human beings do not know.

But, sir, I know that this sharing of God often happens even when-for 
example, at one time, in 1966, in South Africa, sir, I was arrested and 
rather savagely interrogated by the security police. It was that time when 
every Black intellectual, no matter who he or she was, had a visit from 
these really nasty guys, who put you to torture, sometimes, who used to put 
electrical devices on you, and ask you questions, and so on.

Sometimes, when these "human beings" were torturing you, you often used to 
sense what they were thinking. Somehow, when you are being tortured by human 
beings, not by Mantindane only, there is a  transference of thought. For 
example, when a particularly nasty secret policeman was coming to beat you, 
you KNEW what he was thinking, even before he burst into the room in which 
you were held. You knew that he was coming, and you knew exactly what he was 
thinking and what he intended to do to you.

So, this is why I say the strange things that flood my mind. And what 
flooded my mind on that day were visions from the mind of the Mantindane.

Since that time-I am a man of only very limited education-I found it hard to 
speak, let alone to write English. I take long to say things which people of 
better English would say in few words. But, my hands are capable of making 
things which nobody ever taught me.

I make engines, rocket engines that actually work. I make guns, of any type 
I wish, and all people who know me will tell you this and, Mr. David Icke, 
sir, might show you pictures of what I've done around my new home. I have 
made large robots out of scrap iron, and some of these robots are going to 
work. I don't know where I acquired this knowledge from. And since that 
terrible day, the visions I have seen since I was a child, and the ordinary 
impressions which I have as a shaman, have grown much more intense.

I don't know why, and I want to know the reason why. But I can tell you, 
sir, that these creatures, which people wrongly call aliens, are not aliens 
at all.

Over many years of looking into this thing, trying to understand it, I can 
tell you this that the Mantindane, and the other kinds of alien beings that 
our people know about, are sexually compatible with human beings. The 
Mantindane are capable of impregnating African women.

And I have come across many cases of this during the last 30 years or so. 
For example, according to our culture, abortion is regarded as worse than 
murder. And if a tribal woman from a rural area in South Africa is found to 
be pregnant by some unknown person, and then her pregnancy disappears, that, 
sir, relative to that woman, accuses her of having committed abortion, and 
yet she denies this, of course.


Part Two And because of the fight that results between her and her 
relatives, the husband's relatives, then she challenges these people who are 
accusing her to take her to a sangoma; that is a person like myself. The 
sangoma will sometimes examine the woman and, if the sangoma finds that the 
woman had been pregnant, and had somehow had her fetus removed-a thing 
which, when it is done by the Mantindane, results in specific injuries to 
the woman which anyone with experience can recognize-then, the sangoma knows 
that the woman is telling the truth.

Also, the smell which clings to people who have been through the hands of 
the Mantindane, that meticulous man which is unforgetable, always clings to 
all women who have been impregnated by the Mantindane, no matter how much 
perfume or powder they try to use.

So, that is why many such cases land on the doorstep of my life. Sangomas 
bring such people to me in large numbers, because they think I am the best 
one to help in such problems.

So, in the last 40 years or so, I have received many women who have actually 
been impregnated by the Mantindane and their pregnancies mysteriously 
terminated, leaving the woman feeling defiled, feeling guilty, and rejected 
by her family. It becomes my duty to convince the family of the woman's 
innocence, to try and heal the terrible spiritual and mental-as well as 
physical-trauma that the woman has undergone, and to otherwise help her and 
her members of the family, and forget what happened.

No, sir; if these aliens are from a far away planet, why are they able to 
impregnate women? And why did that strange creature, which was naked, with 
red pubic hair, which climbed over me on that working table, why did it have 
an organ which, though slightly different from that of a normal woman, was 
still a recognizable female organ?

The creature's organ was in the wrong place. It was slightly more in the 
front, where that of normal woman is between the legs. But it was 
recognizable, and it looked like a female organ. It had hair like a woman's 
organ.

So, sir, I believe that these so-called aliens don't come from far away at 
all. I believe that they are here with us, and I believe that they need 
substances from us, just as some of us human beings use certain things from 
wild animals, such as monkey glands, for certain selfish purposes of our own.

I believe, sir, that we should study this dangerous phenomenon very, very, 
clearly and with objective minds.

Far too many people fall into the temptation of looking upon these "aliens" 
as supernatural creatures. They are just solid creatures, sir. They are like 
us; and, furthermore, I'm going to make a statement here which will come as 
a surprise the Grey aliens, sir, are edible. Surprised?

Martin Please continue.

Credo Mutwa I said, sir, the Grey aliens are edible.

Martin Yes, I heard that and I'm anxious to....

Credo Mutwa Their flesh is protein, just as animal flesh on Earth is, but, 
anyone who ingests Grey alien flesh comes very, very close to death. I 
nearly did.

You see, in Lesotho there is a mountain called Laribe; it is called the 
Crying Stone mountain. On several occasions, in the last 50 years or so, 
alien craft have crashed against this mountain.

And one last incident was reported in the newspapers not so long ago. An 
African who believes that these creatures are gods, when they find the 
corpse of a dead Grey alien, they take it, put it in a bag, and drag it into 
the bush, where they dismember it and ritually eat it. But some of them die 
as a result of ingesting that thing.

About a year before I had the experience from the Inyangani Mountains, I had 
been given, by a friend of mine in Lesotho, flesh from what he called a sky 
god. I was skeptical.

He gave me a small lump of grey, rather dry stuff, which he said was the 
flesh. And he and I and his wife ritually ate this thing, one night. After 
we had eaten this thing, sir, on the following day, exactly, our bodies 
erupted into a rash which was like nothing I had experienced in my life before.

Our bodies were so full of the rash and urticaria, it was as if we had small 
pox. We itched, the itching was horrible, especially under the arm-pits and 
between the legs, and the buttocks. Our tongues began to swell. We could not 
breathe. And for a number of days, my friend, his wife and I were totally 
helpless, secretly attended by initiates who were studying under my friend, 
who was a shaman.

I came very close to death. There was bleeding from nearly every orifice in 
our body. We passed blood, much blood when we went to the toilet. We could 
barely walk, barely breathe. And after about 4 or 5 days, the rash subsided, 
then the pealing of the skin took its place now. Our skins began to peal, in 
scales like that of a snake shedding it's skin.

Sir, it was one of the most terrible experiences I had undergone. In fact, 
when I began to feel better, I think that my being abducted by the 
Mantindane was the direct result of my having ingested flesh from one of 
these creatures. I had not believed that what my friend was giving me was 
flesh from a creature. I assumed it was some kind of root or herb or 
whatever. But, afterwards, I recalled the taste of the thing. It had a 
coppery taste, and had the same type of smell that I was to encounter in 1959.

And, after the rash went down-while I was still peeling and we were smeared 
from head to foot with coconut oil by the initiates, every day-a strange 
change came over us, sir, which I am asking all people of knowledge who 
would read this in your country to try and explain to me. We went crazy, 
sir, utterly crazy.

We started laughing like real loony tunes. It was ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, day 
after day-for the slightest things we started laughing our heads off, for 
hours, until you were nearly exhausted.

And then the laughing went away; and then a strange thing happened, a thing 
which my friend said was the goal which those who ate the flesh of a 
Mantindane wanted to achieve.

It was as if we had ingested a strange substance, a drug, a drug like no 
other on this Earth. Suddenly, our feelings were heightened.

When you drank water, it was as if you had drunk a wine of some kind. Water 
became as delicious as a man-made drink. Food began to taste amazingly. 
Every feeling was heightened, and it's indescribable-it was as if I was one 
with the very heart of the universe. I cannot describe it any other way.

And this feeling of amazing intensity of feeling lasted for over 2 months. 
When I listened to music, it was as if there was music behind the music, 
behind the music. When I painted pictures-which is what I do for a 
living-and when I was holding a particular color on the tip of my brush, it 
was as if there were other colors in that color. It was an indescribable 
thing, sir. Even now I cannot describe it. But let me now, sir, go to 
something else.

The Mantindane are not the only alien beings that we Africans have seen and 
know about, and have got stories to tell about.

Many, many, many centuries ago, before the first White-man came to Africa, 
we African people encountered a race of alien beings which looked exactly 
like the European White-man who were going to invade Africa in our future.

These alien creatures are tall. Some of them are rather well built, like 
athletes, and they have slightly slanting blue eyes and high cheek-bones. 
And they have got golden hair, and they look exactly like the Europeans of 
today, with one exception their fingers are beautifully made, long and like 
those of musicians and artists.

Now, these creatures came to Africa out of the sky, in craft which looked 
like the boomerang of the Australian people. Now, when one of these craft 
comes down to land, it creates a whirlwind of dust, which makes a very large 
sound indeed, like that of a tornado. In the language of some African 
tribes, a whirlwind is zungar-uzungo.

Now, our people gave several names to these White-skinned aliens. They 
called them Wazungu, a word which loosely means "god" but literally means 
"people of the dust-devil or the whirlwind".

And, our people were familiar with these Wazungu from the start. They saw 
them, and they saw that some-in fact, many-of these Wazungu carry what 
appears to be a sphere made of crystal or glass, a sphere which they always 
playfully bounce like a ball in their hands. And when a force of warriors 
tries to capture a Wazungu, the Wazungu throws this ball into the air, 
catches it in his hands, and then disappears.

But, some Wazungu were captured by Africans in the past and forcibly kept 
prisoner in the villages of chiefs, and in the caves of shamans. The person 
who had captured the Muzungu, as he is called in singular, had to make sure 
that he kept the glass-globe well-hidden from the Wazungu. So long as he 
kept the globe hostage, the Muzungu could not escape.

And when Africans saw the real Europeans, the White men from Europe, they 
transferred to them the name Wazungu. Before we met the people from Europe, 
we Africans, we had met White-skinned Wazungu, and we transferred the name 
Wazungu to the real Europeans, from the aliens.

Now, in the Zulu language, we call a White man Umlungu. Now, the word 
Umlungu means exactly the same as Wazungu, "a god or a creature which 
creates a big whirlwind underground".

In Zaire, called now the Democratic Republic of the Congo, White people are 
called Watende or Walende. This, again, means "a god or a White creature". 
And, the word Watende not only is used to refer to the pink-skinned alien, 
but is also used to refer to the field Chitauli. In Zaire, when shamans talk 
fearfully about the lords who control the Earth, they refer to them not as 
Chitauli, but they refer to them euphemistically as Watende-wa-muinda-that 
is, "the White creature which carries a light" because at night the 
Chitauli's forehead eyes glow like red lights in the dense bush. They glow 
like the rear lights of an automobile in the dense bush. So, a 
Watende-wa-muinda "the White creature of the light", that is what the 
Chitauli are called in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

There are over 24 other alien creatures, sir, that we Africans know about, 
but I will tell you briefly, now, about only two.

Sir, in the country called Zimbabwe, where I had my encounter in 1959, there 
is also another creature. This is the most amazing creature, and I saw it 
once, and so did several other people, some Black and some White, who were 
with me. This creature is a huge creature, and shaped exactly like a 
gorilla, but it is unlike a gorilla, which often walks on its feet, as well 
as on its knuckles. The creature I'm talking about, sir, stands about 8 feet 
or 9 feet high, and is built exactly like a gorilla, but its body is very 
powerful. Its shoulders are very wide, it's neck is very thick. It is 
covered with thick, rough fur, like no other wild animal in Africa.

It is a humanoid creature, with thighs and legs and feet, as well as arms 
and hands which look exactly like those of a human being, only covered with 
a heavy mat of dark-brown fur. This creature, sir, is known as Ogo by the 
people of Zimbabwe. And schools of people have seen this creature, hundreds 
over the many generations. Some of these creatures have been seen right here 
in South Africa, in isolated bushy and mountainous places. And these Ogo 
are, detail for detail, exactly like what the Native American people of the 
Northwestern United States call a Sasquatch or Bigfoot.

In fact, I say it is the same creature and we have it right here in southern 
Africa. It is also exactly the same creature, but with a totally different 
skin color, as the one that is seen by the people of Nepal on the slopes of 
the Himalaya mountains, the creature that is called a Yeti.

Now, then, the last creature, sir, a creature which is so well known in 
South Africa, and elsewhere in Africa, that if you mention its name, people 
smile. It is called a Tokoloshe. Every African knows what a Tokoloshe is. 
Some call it Tikoloshe.

It looks like a very nasty looking teddy-bear in appearance, in that it's 
head is like that of a teddy-bear, but it has got a thick, sharp, bony ridge 
on top of its head. The ridge goes from above its forehead to the back of 
its head, and with this ridge it can knock down an ox by butting it with its 
head.

This creature causes the Black people in certain places to raise their beds 
on bricks, one brick laid on top of the other one, about 3 feet above the 
ground. And you find this all over South Africa. This Tokoloshe likes to 
play with children, and has been seen hundreds of times by school children, 
in various parts of South Africa, even in recent times.

Sometimes it will terrorize children by scratching them as they sleep, 
leaving long, parallel scratches on a child's back and upon a child's 
thighs, scratches that become infected and itch terribly.

About two years ago, a creature like this terrorized a whole school of 
children in Soweto, near Johannesburg. And the school children called it 
pinky-pinky. Now, this creature is not only known in South Africa amongst 
Black people, it is also known, sir, amongst Polynesian people of Hawaii, 
and other islands in the Pacific. These people lift their huts, their grass 
houses, on stilts, to the height exactly that Africans lift their bed. When 
you ask a Polynesian, "Why do you built your huts like this?" The Polynesian 
will say, "We want to protect ourselves from Tiki."

Now, this is interesting, sir - that a creature exactly like the one seen in 
South Africa is also seen on some Pacific islands, and the name by which it 
is known in the Pacific, Tiki, is very close to the African word Tikiloshe, 
or Tokoloshe.

One day I hope to share more of this information with your readers, but my 
appeal, again, is this Please investigate! Please, let us investigate! Let 
us stop being too skeptical. Excessive skepticism is just as dangerous and 
as evil as gullibility.

Nobody can tell me that aliens don't exist. Let someone tell me, what is the 
meaning of this hole in my side? Let someone tell me, why is it that after I 
had been mated to that strange creature, in that strange place, my organ of 
manhood swelled horribly, and for many years after that I couldn't make love 
to an ordinary woman, properly. Why? If that was a figment of my 
imagination, how can a figment of one's imagination leave you with scars and 
cracks on your male organ, some of which have not healed to this date? Let 
such people answer me that question.

We must investigate, sir, because there is every sign that the alien 
creatures sharing this planet with us are getting desperate. Why? Because, 
you see, there is a great fight shaping up, and anyone who thinks deeply 
about such things can see this fight coming.

What am I talking about? Sir, until 30 or 40 years ago, very few people 
cared about the environment. Very few people were concerned about the 
destruction of the rain forests in Africa and elsewhere. Very few people 
were concerned when White hunters, who, at that time were regarded as 
heroes, massacred Africa's animals in the thousands. Very few people were 
concerned when the great nations of the world, such as the United States, 
Russia, Britain, and France, openly tested nuclear weapons in many parts of 
the world.

Today there are people who would spit at a big-game hunter if he showed 
himself in a hotel and announced what he was. Today a big-game hunter is no 
longer looked upon as a hero, but rather as a murderer. Today there are men 
and women, Black and White, who are prepared to risk their lives to save 
trees, to save animals, and to stop the insanity of testing nuclear weapons.

Sir, what does this tell you? It tells you that, after many thousands of 
years of being dominated by alien creatures, human beings are starting to 
fight back. Human beings are starting to care about the world in which they 
live and in which they find themselves. But, the aliens, the Chitauli, the 
Mantindane-call them what you will-are not going to take that lying down. 
They are going to punish us, as they did centuries before.

The aliens once destroyed a nation whose name has come down to us Africans 
as the nation of Amariri. It is said that the kings of Amariri, this 
fabulous country which we believed lay beyond the setting of the Sun, were 
refusing to do what the Chitauli were telling them to do.

The kings, at that time, were refusing to sacrifice their children to the 
Chitauli. They were refusing to make war on fellow human-beings, in order to 
sustain the Chitauli, with their god's image.

It is said that the Chitauli brought down a fire from Heaven. They took fire 
from the Sun itself and they used it to burn that great civilization away. 
They caused earthquakes and tidal waves and destroyed the great civilization 
of the Red people of the long green hair, who are said to have been the 
first people ever to be created on this Earth. It is said that the Chitauli 
allowed only a few surviving people to escape the destruction of Amariri, 
and that they are prepared to do this again in the very near future.

I'm worried about what is going to happen in other countries in the world. 
All these earthquakes, which have caused the destruction of human life in 
the Middle East and in parts of Africa and India, why does my heart feel 
frightened when I read about all this? These earthquakes are happening with 
unnatural regularity now, in Egypt, in Armenia, and one of these earthquakes 
was so powerful, it went right through the planet Earth and caused a very 
sacred rock in Namibia, a rock known as the Finger of God, which has been 
standing for tens of thousands of years, to collapse in a heap of rubble. 
And when that rock collapsed, I received many worried letters from  sangomas 
who believed that because this rock had fallen, then the end of the world 
was very, very near.

Is there a question, please?

Martin I read your poem, your pledge. In your pledge you mention the name 
Jabulon. Can you explain who that is?

Credo Mutwa Jabulon, sir, is a very strange god. He is supposed to be the 
leader of the Chitauli. He is a god, to my great surprise, which I find 
certain groups of White people, especially, worshipping. We have known about 
Jabulon for many, many centuries, we Black people. But I am surprised that 
there are White people who worship this god, and these people, amongst them 
are people whom many have blamed for all the things that have happened on 
this Earth, namely, the Freemason people.

We believe that Jabulon is the leader of the Chitauli. He is the Old One. 
And one of his names, in the African language, sir, is Umbaba-Samahongo - 
"the lord king, the great father of the terrible eyes" - because we believe 
that Jabulon has got one eye which, if he opens it, you die if he looks at you.

It is said, sir, the Umbaba ran away from an eastern land during a power 
struggle with one of his sons, and he took refuge in Central Africa, where 
he hides in a cave, deep underground. And it is an amazing thing, sir-it is 
said that under the Mountains of the Moon in Zaire is this great city of 
copper, of many thousands of shining buildings. There dwells the god Umbaba 
or Jabulon. And this god is waiting for the day when the surface of the 
Earth will be cleared of human beings so that he, and his children, the 
Chitauli, can come out and enjoy the heat of the Sun.

And, one day, sir, I had a very unexpected visit while I was living in 
Soweto, near Johannesburg. I was visited by priests from Tibet.

One of these priests, I'm sure you have met him or you know of him. His name 
is Akyong Rinpochce. He is one of the leading Tibetan priests in England who 
was exiled with the Dalai Lama, and he visited me one day while I was in my 
medicinal village in Soweto. And one of the things that Akyong Rinpochce 
asked me was, "Do I know of a secret city which is somewhere in Africa, a 
city made of copper?"

I said, "But, Akyong, you are describing the city of Umbaba, the city of the 
unseen god, the god who hides underground. How do you know about this?" And 
Akyong Rinpochce, who is a very serious investigator of strange phenomena, 
told me that at one time the great Lama left Tibet with a group of followers 
and came to Africa searching for this city. And the Lama, and his followers, 
were never seen again. They never returned back to Tibet.

Now, sir, we have got stories in central and southern Africa about little 
Yellow men who came to Africa looking for the city of Umbaba, the city from 
which you cannot return alive. What is amazing, sir - I don't know whether 
this falls within the orbit of your newspaper, but  - there are very, very 
disturbing stories which I have followed-up here in South Africa, stories 
which make no sense to me.

(Break for a few minutes.)

Credo Mutwa Hello.

Martin Yes, Credo. May I just say that I am very appreciative of your 
taking this time to talk with me, and I realize it's difficult.

Credo Mutwa I appreciate the honor that you are doing me, much more than 
you realize. And I know how White people often treat anyone who talks on the 
subject that I am talking about, as weird.

Sir, I really shouldn't be exposing myself to public ridicule, as I am, but, 
our people ARE DYING! Not only do we have problems with drugs in southern 
Africa, not only do we have problems with crime in my country, which is 
getting a thousand times more vicious than it ever was before, not only do 
we have problems with AIDS, sir, but we also have got weird problems which 
often come our way-problems which, when you study them together, show you 
that something unearthly is going on in southern Africa.  Can I share this 
thing with you, sir?

Martin Yes, please.

Credo Mutwa Sir, according to my culture it is very rude for one man simply 
to talk to another man without giving that other man the chance to talk back 
to him. So, out of respect of your paper and of you, I would like to ask 
you, in your country, the United States, do you have strange stories about 
underground structures which are built - because we are having similar 
stories in South Africa, and with us they are having very strange results, 
indeed.

Martin Yes, there are many stories of underground - we call them 
underground bases, actually, and, in fact, in the newspaper I was associated 
with earlier, we published an entire edition on exposing the locations of 
those underground bases. Not only that....

Credo Mutwa There is exactly the same thing here in South Africa, and there 
has been for a number of years. I was able to confirm one to my own 
satisfaction, but I have failed to confirm others. You see, sir, a man like 
me, who walks two worlds-the African mystical world, as well as the modern, 
down-to-Earth world-must be careful of what he says. But, about 5 years ago, 
I was living in the little town of Masikeng, a very historical town which 
was the site of a famous siege by the Boors, in the war of 1899-1902.

It was in this town, sir, that the Scout movement, the Boy Scout movement, 
was founded by Captain Powell. I'm sure you've heard about him. But, while I 
was living in Masinkeng, a number of people came to me, ordinary tribesmen 
and women, sir, some of them totally illiterate. These people complained to 
me that their relatives had mysteriously disappeared. They wanted me to 
divine where their relatives have gone to. And, I asked these people, all of 
whom did not know each other, where did your relatives disappear?

These people had told me an incredible story, and it was this Not far from 
Masikeng there is a famous place which I'm sure you have heard about, a 
place which we call the Las Vegas of South Africa. This is the famous 
casino/hotel complex called Sun City.

Martin Yes.

Credo Mutwa I was told that under Sun City strange mining operations were 
in progress, deep underground, and that many of the Africans who worked in 
those mines disappeared and never returned home again, although their 
paychecks kept on being sent to their family. The men never returned home, 
as ordinary miners do.

Now, I looked into this phenomenon, sir, and, like a fool, I refused to 
believe it. And then more stories came my way, because when an African is in 
deep trouble, he or she always looks for a sangoma to find the reason behind 
the trouble.

Sir, the other story was this, and this one I found to be a shocking truth - 
that there was construction across the border from South Africa, in the land 
known as Botswana. There, the Americans were working with African labor, who 
had been sworn to secrecy. The Americans were building there a secret 
airport which can take modern jet fighters. Now, I couldn't believe this. 
Again, I was told that many had mysteriously disappeared there - ordinary 
tribesmen, sir, not even educated Black people; ordinary workers have gone 
missing. And when their relatives try to find out where they had gone, they 
are met with stone-cold silence.

Now, I wanted to have a look at this thing, and one thing that made me act 
was that a strange story swept through South Africa, that a South African 
jet aircraft, a jet fighter, had shot down a flying saucer. And the jet 
fighter had been scrambled from this secret base.

Now, sir, I decided to investigate because my credibility as a shaman and as 
a sangoma was at stake. I went to Botswana. It was very easy. You can still 
cross through the wire and get into that country. The borders are not as 
heavily sealed in certain places as many people would think.

I went there with some friends and I found that there was such a base in 
Botswana, not underground, but on the surface. It is an aircraft base, but 
Black people are afraid of even being seen near there because it is said 
that you will disappear if you get too close to the place, and the man who 
took us there didn't want to come near that place. I studied it from far 
away, and it does exist, and the man said if we got any nearer to the place, 
we would disappear.

Which is a very odd thing, sir, because there are many military bases all 
over South Africa, and in Botswana, but this particular one fills the local 
people with deep terror. Why this would be so, I'm still struggling to find 
out, even now, because there are too many strange things going on in my 
country, and they are affecting the lives of many of our people very badly 
indeed.

Now, there is another thing, sir It is that one of the things that the 
Chitauli like to do in their underground caves, where many fires are always 
kept ablaze, we are told, is that when a Chitauli gets sick and starts to 
lose a large area of skin on his body, it is said that there is a disease 
that the Chitauli suffer from which causes them to lose large areas of their 
skin, leaving only raw flesh.

When the Chitauli gets sick this way, a young girl, a virgin, is usually 
kidnapped by the servant of the Chitauli and is brought to the underground 
place. There the girl is bound, hand and foot, and wrapped in a golden 
blanket, and is forced to lie next to the Chitauli, the sick Chitauli, week 
after week, being well fed and well cared for, but kept bound hand and foot, 
and only released at certain times to relieve herself.

It is said that after the sick Chitauli shows signs of getting better, then 
the human girl is manipulated into trying to escape. She is given a chance 
to escape, a chance which is really not a chance. Then, when the girl 
escapes, she runs, but she is pursued over a long distance underground by 
flying creatures which are made of metal, and she is recaptured when she 
reaches the height of fear and exhaustion.

Then she is laid on an altar, usually a rough rock, flat on top. Then, she 
is cruelly sacrificed, sir, and her blood is drunk by the sick Chitauli, 
which then recovers. But, the girl must not be sacrificed until she is very, 
very, very frightened, because if she is not frightened, it is said that her 
blood will not save the sick Chitauli. It must be the blood of a very 
frightened human being, indeed.

Now, this habit of chasing a victim was also practiced by ordinary African 
cannibals, sir. In Zulu-land, in the last century, there were cannibals who 
used to eat people, and their descendants, even today, will tell you, if 
they trust you, that the flesh of the human being who has been frightened 
and made to run over a great distance, while trying to escape, tastes far 
better than the flesh of someone who was simply killed.

Now, sir, some time ago here in South Africa - and it is still an ongoing 
process - 5 White girls disappeared. They were school-girls, sir. These 
school-girls were, every one of them, a highly talented child - either a 
child who showed signs of developing spiritual power, or a child who was a 
leader of her class in one particular thought or subject of learning. Five 
such children disappeared in South Africa. It was a very big story in the 
newspaper and, at one time, White people came to me and persuaded me to try 
and trace these children.

And one day a White man brought to me a rubber toy belonging to a White 
child who had disappeared. And I took the rubber toy in my hands and I 
noticed that the creature's eyes appeared to move. It was as if the rubber 
toy, a toy dinosaur, was about to burst into tears. I felt very bad, as if I 
could stand up and run away. And then I told this White man, "Listen to me 
The child who held this toy is dead. What are you trying to do to me? This 
child is dead. I feel it."

And the White man, who was a television producer, took the toy, the school 
books, and the jersey, and he went away. And, sure enough, the White school 
child was found dead, buried in a shallow grave next to a road.

Now, other people came to me asking for my help in finding their missing 
children. Are they dead? Are they alive? Before I could do anything, sir - 
at that time I still had a telephone in my home - my telephone started 
ringing and people with very angry voices, white people voices, shouted at 
me and told me to stop helping those people. They told me that if I don't 
stop, acid would be thrown into my wife's face, and that my children would 
be murdered, one after the other.

And, sure enough, sure enough, my youngest son was brutally stabbed, almost 
to death, one day, by mysterious people whom his friends later told me had 
been White-skinned people. And so, I stopped, sir.

I am told, reliably, that over 1,000 children disappear in South Africa, 
almost every month. And they disappear, never to be seen again. Many people, 
especially in the newspaper field, think that this is the result of child 
prostitution rackets. But I do not think so.

The children - if you check the history of many of these children, they were 
not ordinary street children, sir. They are school children who stand out in 
their class, because of certain subjects at which they are good, or, who 
stand out in their class because of thoughts which they are good at.

Not only that, sir, but ordinary women have disappeared this way, in 
Masikeng, also, at more or less the same time that the 5 White children 
disappeared. In Masikeng, two Black school teachers, female school teachers, 
disappeared in their car and were never seen again. But I don't want to 
burden you, sir, with this terrible story.

But let me tell you one last thing After the disappearance of the 5 White 
school children, the police arrested a priest, a reverend of the White 
Reform Church, Reverend Van Rooyen. It was said that it was Van Rooyen who 
was responsible for the disappearance of these poor White school kids. And, 
he had been assisted by his girlfriend, who hand-picked these children. 
Before Van Rooyen could appear in court, a very strange thing happened. He 
and his girlfriend were shot in their little vehicle, a little 4x4 truck. 
And, after they had been shot, the truck managed to come to a stop - a thing 
that a moving truck never does - and I was told, afterwards, by a White 
woman who knew Van Rooyen, that Van Rooyen and his woman had not committed 
this crime as the police had said to the newspapers.

They had actually been murdered. Why? Because Van Rooyen was found with a 
gunshot wound in his right temple, and yet, all of the people who knew him 
knew that he had been a left-handed man. So, who murdered Van Rooyen and his 
woman?  It is one of the biggest and the ugliest mysteries in South Africa 
to date.

There is more, much more along these lines, but I won't waste your time with 
it.

Martin When we were talking about the Greys, you talked about the Chitauli. 
You had described them, the reptilians-now correct me if I'm wrong-were you 
describing them as tall, thin, large-headed, large-eyed beings?

Credo Mutwa Yes, sir. They are tall. They walk with a - you see, the Grey 
aliens walk with a jerking motion, sir, as if there is something wrong with 
their legs. But, the Chitauli walk very gracefully, like trees gently 
swaying in the wind.

They are tall. They have large heads. Some of them have got horns all around 
their heads. Now, let me express amazement, there exists - that in one of 
the films that recently appeared in South Africa, a Star Wars film, the 
latest one, shows a character EXACTLY like a Chitauli, exactly! It's got 
horns all around it's head. These are the warrior Chitauli.

The royal Chitauli have got no horns around their head, but have got a 
darker ridge reaching from above their forehead to their back. They are very 
graceful creatures, we are told, sir, but they have got -their little finger 
is a claw which is a very sharp, straight claw, which they use to punch into 
human noses, in order to drink human brains in one of their rituals.

Martin Now, are they fair skinned?

Credo Mutwa They are not pink skinned. They are white-skinned, like paper, 
almost like certain types of cardboard. Their skin is like that, it is the 
skin, definitely, of scaly, reptile-like creatures. Their foreheads are very 
large, bulging, and they look highly, highly intelligent.

Martin Now, it's been said - I've heard that these beings are very 
controlling and they thrive on "divide and conquer".

Credo Mutwa Yes, they do, sir. They set human being against human being. I 
could give you many amusing examples, using some African language, how the 
Chitauli are said to have divided human beings. They like - do you know who 
they like, sir?  They like religious fanatics.

Martin (Laughter)

Credo Mutwa Ones who are burdened by too much religion are very popular 
with the Chitauli.

Martin Well, now, I can't help but wonder if the Chitauli are prevalent in 
the United States because of the large number of underground bases. In the 
United States, alone, the numbers of missing children are so astronomically 
high that the White-slave trade does not answer those questions.

Credo Mutwa Yes, sir, I agree. But, I'm sorry, sir, I feel that it is in 
Africa that something very funny is designed to happen. Let me tell you what 
happened to me, recently, sir.  We still have a little time. I won't be 
long, one minute or less.

Martin No, no-that's fine.

Credo Mutwa When I started talking to Mr. David Icke, and it was (when) Mr. 
Icke started speaking about me in Cape Town, I received a visit from 3 White 
people who pretended to be from South America. These people told me that 
something is going to happen on the 9th of this month, on 9-9-99. They said 
that this was going to happen in Lake Titicaca, a place which I once visited 
about 2 years ago.

Martin A very special place.

Credo Mutwa Yes, sir. And then, these people told me, when we were 
speaking-these people, sir, speaking through an interpreter-told me that 
Africa is the country where something is going to happen soon which will 
decide the fate of all humankind.

And then, we parted on very friendly words, sir, but these people had left 
me a letter which I did not open until a few hours after they had left. And 
in this letter was written that I should not attend David Icke's talk, and 
that a strange person called Alia Czar was watching me. I don't know who 
Alia Czar is.

And they said to me - these people had said to me when we met - that they 
were under a great lord called Melchizedek. And, after I'd read this 
threatening letter, which threatened that if I talked, my wife, who is sick 
of cancer in hospital, is going to die if I talked. Then, I began to wonder. 
Who were these people?

Then, because I've been to South America before, I found that the Spanish 
language with which they were speaking was different from the language, the 
Spanish which is spoken in South America. These people were using Spanish 
from Spain, and not the slightly weakened Spanish from South America.

Even now, sir, that threat is still hanging over my head and, may I point 
out, sir, a strange thing which whoever you will send to me one day will see 
for themself my wife is sick of cancer in the hospital, which is the 
largest hospital in South Africa, sir. And in one of the x-rays taken of my 
wife's womb, a strange metal device was seen-of a kind which has puzzled 
doctors. I spoke to my wife. I asked her, "Who put this object, which the 
x-rays have seen, in her womb."

My wife said nobody had ever touched her, and nobody had ever inserted 
anything into her. But this artifact, sir, which is clearly marked in the 
x-ray, and is clearly indicated with an arrow, is first seen in one x-ray 
plate, disappears for the next 2 plates, and is seen on the 4th plate again. 
I've been wondering very, very much about this.

No matter what we may think, sir, there are strange things going on in this 
world and they require an agent, investigation, and explanation. What is 
this strange device, which the doctors cannot identify, doing inside the 
uterus of a 65-year-old woman?  My wife is suffering, and I can lose her at 
any time now, because I can't even get her out of hospital. Who put this 
device in her uterus, and why? I will never know the answer, not in this world.

Martin I'm very sorry to hear about your wife having cancer. I just lost my 
mother last year to cancer and I know that is a very painful struggle.

Credo Mutwa Yes, sir, it is.

Martin So, I am very sorry that you are going through that.

Credo Mutwa Through the training as a Zulu step-son warrior, we have got 
something like the Japanese Samuri which we call the Kaway, which is a Sun 
warrior. When a Sun warrior, who is trained like I am, undergoes a terrible 
experience, he must channel the pain caused by that experience into cold, 
battle anger, in order to overcome the grief he feels.

And, at this moment, sir, I am aggrieved about what is happening in my 
country; about what's happening to my people; about what's happening to my 
wife, who is also my half-sister. You see, ours is what was called a sacred 
marriage between a man, a sanusi, a shaman, and his half-sister. And, the 
wife I'm about to lose is my half-sister. Our father is one man, although 
our mothers were different.

You know, sir, I feel a cold rage that Africa is being destroyed. I feel, 
sir, a cold rage that my people are being destroyed by forces which, when 
you study them, you find are totally alien. And, here, let me share with 
you, sir, one last thing, please, which will make your readers understand 
why I am feeling what I am feeling now.

As you know, sir, there is AIDS going like a silent fire through South 
Africa. And, last year, I found, to my horror, that one of my six children, 
my 21-year-old daughter, is HIV positive. Sir, I feel a cold rage in my 
heart that we are allowing an alien disease that came from we know not 
where, a disease which anyone, with any thought, realizes was manufactured 
somewhere in order to destroy large swaths of humankind.

When I look into my daughter's eyes, sir, I feel a chill. I've got two 
daughters, grown-up, young women, and she is the last. The other one is 
short and dumpy, and a loving - a lovely African girl with a big backside 
and big breasts. But this girl, who is dying of this disease, is slender, 
dark-skinned like my mother, and she is very beautiful, even by European 
standards - and I cannot look into my child's eyes and see what I read 
there a resignation, a why? Why?

If AIDS was a natural disease, sir, I would accept it, because man must live 
side-by-side with illness in this world. But a child, you spend years 
educating and bringing-up, suddenly being snuffed-out before your eyes, by a 
disease made by evil people, I want to tear somebody's eyes out for what 
I've seen happening. I'm sorry, sir.

Martin I understand.

Credo Mutwa We must look into this thing. Is there one last question you 
would like to ask?

Martin Yes. I would like to go back to the copper city for a moment. It 
would seem that this Jabulon would be the equivalent of what, in the West, 
we call Satan. Would you say that?

Credo Mutwa I think so, yes, sir. He is the chief of the Chitauli. And, 
like Satan, he lives in a house underground where great fires are always 
lighted, to keep him warm. Because, we are told, that after the great war 
they fought with God, they became cold in their blood and they cannot stand 
freezing weather, which is why they require human blood, and also they 
require fire always to be kept working where they are.

Martin Well it's been said, in the recent video tape that David Icke has 
put out, that the shape-shifting reptilians, in order to maintain their 
façade, their cover, their human-like appearance, they must  drink human 
blood. And there is something about the blond gene, apparently. Now, I don't 
know what...

Credo Mutwa  Yes. Mr. David Icke shared that a little with me, sir. He told 
me that, repeatedly, golden-haired people get sacrificed by the Chitauli, 
and then I told him, in my turn, what I know from Africa.

You see, sir, not all Africans have got black hair. There are Africans who 
are regarded as very holy, as very sacred. These are Africans who are born 
with natural red hair. These Africans are believed to be very spiritually 
powerful. Now, in Africa, such people, albeamers or red-headed Africans, 
were the most victims of sacrifice, especially when they were just entering 
maturity-whether they were males or females.


Martin Now, when you were able to see the eyes beneath the Grey alien's 
exterior, would you say that those were reptilian beings underneath that cover?

Credo Mutwa Yes, sir, exactly. I will tell you why. There is a snake here 
in South Africa which is called a Mamba.

Martin Yes, very deadly.

Credo Mutwa It is one of the most poisonous snakes that you can find. It 
has got eyes EXACTLY like those of a Chitauli and of a Mantindane. And so 
has a Python, sir. A crocodile's eyes are very ET-looking, and they don't 
look as hypnotic and as piercing as those of a Mamba or a Python. If you can 
image, sir, the eye of a Python, magnified about 10 times, then you have got 
exactly what a Chitauli's eyes look like.

Martin Well, it is said, and I believe this to be true, that there is a - 
for lack of a better way of putting it - there is a war between Light and 
Dark, Good and Evil, on this planet.

Credo Mutwa  Yes. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes.

Martin And there certainly is a God in His Universe, a God of Light and 
Justness.

Credo Mutwa Yes, sir.

Martin How does your culture, how do you view the intervention of God 
through His Hosts, through His Representatives? In all things there must be 
a balance, and that includes on planet Earth - as above, so below. How do 
you see - for many readers, they can read about this all, and it sounds very 
frightening and very, almost, hopeless - and yet, there certainly is hope. 
So, I would like to end this interview on a message of hope.

Credo Mutwa Yes. Please, sir, there IS hope! Look, first of all, there IS a 
God above us. And this God is more real than most of us believe. God is not 
a figment of someone's imagination. God is not something dreamt-up by old 
men and old women in prehistoric times. God exists, sir. But standing 
between us and God are creatures who claim to be gods. And these creatures 
we must get rid of in order to get closer to God.

Sir, I have lived a long and very strange life, and I can tell you that 
there is a God, and He is intervening. However, we see God's intervening as 
slow, but wait Who would have thought that less than 30 years ago, not one 
person cared about the environment. Who put this sudden Godliness within all 
of us?

Today, sir, people everywhere in the world are standing up and fighting for 
the rights of women and for the rights of children. Who has put these ideas 
into our minds? Not the Chitauli, not any demonic entity, it is God acting 
in the shadow and making us strong and able to resist these ugly creatures.

You see, sir, God seems to work slowly in our eyes, because God lives in a 
time-sphere totally different from our own. God is there. God is working. 
And it's God, sir, who, for the first time in our existence, is making us 
aware of these things, making us aware that on this world we are not alone, 
and that we must be soully and solely responsible for our actions, and we 
must neutralize these alien beings who for years have led us around in circles.

Human beings have never known any real progress, sir, because there have 
been forces that have been stopping us from reaching our rightful position 
in the universe, and I mean the Chitauli, I mean the Mantindane, I mean the 
Midzimu. We must stop regarding these creatures as super-human creatures. 
They are just parasites who need us more than we need them. And only a fool 
will ever deny the fact that we are not the only intelligent species of 
being that this planet has produced.

All over Africa there is overwhelming evidence that once there were gigantic 
human beings who walked this planet, in the days of the dinosaur. There are 
footprints in granite, each one 6 foot long by 3 ½ wide, footprints of 
mature human beings, sir, which date back thousands of years, millions of 
years. Where did these giants go to? Who knows; the dinosaurs may have 
produced an intelligent race, a race which deceives us into thinking that it 
comes from the stars, when in fact it is part of this planet on which we live.

There is hope, and the hope is very bright. A Christ-child is being born in 
all of us, but like all deaths, the death of the Light-child (the death of 
the old-self prior to transformation into "Christness") is going to be 
attended by great danger, as the enemy is going to be driven into 
desperation. The enemy will make mistakes and we will conquer him in God's 
sacred name. That is what I believe, sir, and that is what I'm going to 
hold-on believing until my last breath.

Martin And that is a perfect place to end this-on that thought, on that note.

Now, let me just say, just for you, since 1974, I have seen many, many 
spaceships, close-up (though not inside nor by abduction). I have 
experienced - in the mountains of southern Oregon - I have come across 
Bigfoot footprints...

Credo Mutwa Ah-hah!

Martin ...by a river where I was camping. I have heard the Bigfoot in the 
mountains at night. I have heard their cries...

Credo Mutwa Ya-ya! You see?

Martin ...from one mountain to another. These are things I have 
experienced. I KNOW these things are real!

Credo Mutwa Yes, sir. Then, I speak to a fellow warrior, and I say, "We 
shall overcome", as the American Marines used to sing during the Second 
World War.

Martin Yes, and during the Vietnam War.

Credo Mutwa We will overcome, we will overcome, but skeptics must stop 
laughing, and fools must stop calling these aliens, god. There is only ONE 
God, and He or She or It is the One who created us, and not some impostor 
who came from somewhere else to hide behind us and to drink our children's 
blood. Amen, sir.

Martin Yes, absolutely right. Credo, please know that I deeply appreciate 
what you have done and the courage of just speaking frankly. It's past time 
to hold onto these things, and it's time to just speak The Truth. And for 
those who don't believe or even consider possibilities, well, it's just too 
bad.

Credo Mutwa Exactly, and also to confront people with the fact that there 
is no reason to fear anything. If we go from a perspective of making 
information available that should be available to every single person on 
this blooming planet, why the hell are they trying to threaten you to keep 
quiet? If it's so ridiculous, let it be. Stop assassinating and ridiculing 
and destroying people by churning-up fear. This is the perspective I come 
from, and I'm sure David, as well, and obviously you, as well, do too. I 
don't have fear anymore.

It's time that we speak out and that we acquire a consciousness - a global, 
common consciousness - and get this thing to the front. Thank you, so much, 
I really appreciate it.

Martin Absolutely right. Thank you.
