I am really disappointed in Pallo Jordan!...

I'm really dismally disappointed in what I started reading on news24 about the academic records of Dr Pallo Jordan if what the Sunday Times' story is true.

You know this new revelations start to make me believe more on the honesty and integrity of President Jacob Zuma as we all know he has never accoladed himself with any qualifications he does not have and on the issue of been a polygamist.

Most of our self-righteous leaders are always caught with their pants down in affairs with married wives and this I really salute you Msholozi and think the Emeritus Bishop Tutu will come to change his judgement on your character as I  had always maintained that there were people who did not really want you to be the President of this country because of your abilities as a true African leader and not because faked educational qualifications. 

I am saying this with all the positivity that is the in the book of honesty. Our previous President Thabo Mbeki alienated the West with his African Agenda, African Renaissance and Nepad and what did that cause the country?

Unemployment, poverty and lack of Foreign Direct Investments and our beloved President is today been blamed for all this not forgetting the inequalities created by Mbeki with GEAR and BEE.

JZ as true African leader he does not point fingers but pick the baton went to USA Congress and presented our case showing foresight and interest in the plight of the majority of our people who are leaving in the trenches.
