I agree with Sipho Seepe’s articles most of the time but I find them repetitive and usually shallow. He thinks black intellectuals have to assume an ambivalent stance against the government to be heard.
I agree that the HIV issue has been mishandled and this government should take the blame for the death of many children. How on earth can the president conclude that a virus cannot cause a syndrome? But there are many positive things that the government has done which Seepe never mentions.
Seepe, you have said enough particularly on Mbeki. Would you have anything to write about if the president satisfied your grievances? If you have something personal against him, sort it out and leave us alone. Mudau Vhonani, Boksburg
