quote from an article about Rev Bhengu: Furthermore, the former communist, Rev. Bhengu, was viewed as a traitor by the extremists of the African National Congress due to his plea for peace with the whites. Ironically, one of its leaders Chief Albert Luthuli once said, "I respect Bhengu as a sincere and honest man." Hollenweger further quotes Katesa Schlosser when she wrote, "Bhengu is far from being a blind admirer of the whites, but he is too reasonable to be a fanatical black nationalist" (Hollenweger, 1972: 136). Moreover, uKhehla was a personal friend to Lucas Mangope (the former President of Bophuthatswana). Lucas Mangope is a member of the Assemblies of God movement to this day.
