A week ago I spoke at Stellenbosch University’s Faculty of Engineering because a third-year mechanical engineering student, Mogomotsi Moeletsi, reached out on LinkedIn and asked me to come.
He chairs the SAIMechE student chapter. He was not a dean or a vice-chancellor. He simply had the courage to ask.
The university opened the session. Students from Stellenbosch, UCT and CPUT filled the lecture theatre. I came to talk about a national utility. What I found was something larger than a lecture.
Courage is a muscle. Build it early.
Thank you, Mogomotsi. South Africa needs your skill and your nerve.

It is important to call for mediation right now if Vodacom truly has good intentions. The track record of former Chief Justice Langa, former Chief Justice Mogoeng, and former DCJ Moseneke suggests that one can be an impartial mediator.
Vodafone must immediately remove their failed VodacomSA CEO to prevent further loss of reputational damage.
Wishing family and friends of the miners who lost their lives in an accident at 11 shaft in Impala Platinum’s (Implats’) Rustenburg Mines peace, comfort, courage, and lots of love at this time of sorrow.
My heart goes out to you at this difficult time. Many South Africans are thinking of you and your families and sending caring thoughts your way to support you.
This is a constant reminder that ZERO HARM is not negotiable. That must be the target.
