Eventful days, are they not?

Everyone and his aunt has already commented on Pelonomi Venson Moitoi’s transfer and made their own judgments about it.

I won’t do so because, much to my regret, I am poorly informed about the issues involved. I do note, however, that her appearance on BTV Wednesday’s evening news did clearly show the awesome strain that heading that particular Ministry can bring.

In that respect, she deserves our understanding.
