When he was appointed a few months ago, there were a lot of mixed feelings. Obviously some were FOR and some were AGAINST. This was normal and at the time, the views on him and his appointment we rather interesting. I came out clearly stated that even though I did not know him at that time, and he wasn’t my favourite for the position, as a Motswana I supported his appointment.
As a Motswana, I chose to support him and his appointment. While others chose to be negative and disparage his appointment and his character, I chose to be positive and look beyond the surface. Even though I didn’t know him, I defended him and his appointment to a point where I was called names and even accused of being a 'BFA' and 'Butler' Agent. I couldn’t care less at the time because I have realised that when people don’t have reasons they get nasty and start throwing their toys out of their pram. At the time I took the attacks as they came.
