The past week was a very tough one for the province after the violence that broke out at the KaNyamazane Community Hall between the ANC and SACP.

It is shameful to learn that the intelligence of the country has uncovered that there are some journalists who are working with the premier’s detractors to effect a government change in the province.

It is a shame on journalism for some so-called journalists to masquerade as journalists, yet they don’t have the passion, but have ridden on the bandwagon to foster certain agendas of fighting other people’s struggles.

Yours truly has also personally noticed that many such destructive stories find their way into newspapers without verification of facts, but as a one-sided onslaught.

In the process, we’ve not been described as part of the progressive media because we didn’t join in their onslaught.

How on earth do you join or ride a train to nowhere as you’ve not decided to go to that destination?

We’re not party to any conspiracy with anyone. It is good that we chose to be neutral as we solely report on service delivery issues, good or bad, but not about personalities.

I marvel at myself for forever doing good unto the people and my readers because I sleep in peace and do not begrudge anybody about anything.

I do not boil with anger at any given time because my secret objective has not been met or achieved, but I play open cards, that is why I will forever cherish my good-heartedness.
