ANC national spokesman Ronnie Mamoepa said Holomisa's behaviour was perhaps a reflection of the calibre of leadership and policy direction that the United Democratic Movement would foist on the people of South Africa.
He said since his expulsion from the ANC for ill-discipline, Holomisa had consistently sought to hang onto the tailcoat of the ANC to gain cheap publicity.
"This has included the use of lies, deceit, falsifications and libellous allegations against individual leaders of the ANC, particularly ANC President Thabo Mbeki and the government," said Mamoepa.
Living up to expectations of his political masters in the former National Party government, he said Holomisa resorted to the old discredited di rule - praising President Nelson Mandela while demonising Mbeki.
"The truth of the matter is that despite a few whites who have migrated, South Africa has made a brain gain from intellectual and skilled people who have returned to the country since 1994."
Mamoepa said Holomisa and his erstwhile masters would never give due recognition to these facts primarily because they had scant regard for black intellectuals and artisans who had since returned to South Africa.
"Holomisa and his ilk should by now know that the ANC has in the past defeated such attempts by the apartheid state and is in a better position to defend itself against such disinformation tactics now even better than before."
