Know your boundaries, pleaseĀ
Oh, Shwa couldnāt help but notice the curious case of a certain GNU minister who seemingly forgot his āterritorial decencyā on his Mpumalanga visit.Ā Ā
The honourable Dion George strolled into MEC Makhosazana Masilelaās territory, but instead of a polite, āSorry, maāam, I have a few private errands to run at a guesthouse,ā he left her high and dry ā and raising a brow over his throwback antics. Is he riding a ghost horse from the past?Ā Ā
Sure, the minister has every right to his agenda, but a touch of courtesy wouldnāt hurt, especially since his party wears the makoti title in the ANC-led government.Ā Ā
Unlike his federal bigwig, the legendary Gogo Helen, who in her heyday was known to cook pap over a drie voet pot for Prince Keorapetse Motlhako in Bodibe, North West.Ā Ā
Even President Cyril knows to announce himself when working across āenemyā turf. Uziphoxile, Minister Dion George! For a politician boasting a Harvard leadership coaching qualification, one would expect you to be schooling those you deem āilliterateā about the virtues of consultative leadership.Ā
Ā Instead, here you are, offering a masterclass in political faux pas.Ā
