'Only a mind warped into destruction by apartheid can ever suggest blood ties between two individuals classified Coloured by apartheid regime, when the only connective tissue is racial classification. The onus rests on Mr Ndlozi to prove the ties exist.

"Only a mind warped into destruction by apartheid can ever suggest blood ties between two individuals classified Coloured by the apartheid regime, when the only connective tissue is racial classification. The onus now rests on Mr Ndlozi to prove the ties exist.

"Secondly, he claims that I have business relations with Mr Kieswetter. He now has to explain how, through which agency and when these ties were established. "I can direct him to the CIPC data-base, where I am sure he will find nothing. The truth of the matter is that Edward and I have not even served on the same non-profit organisation. He has made the claim and the obligation to explain is now in his court.

"Thirdly, he has claimed that I, as minister of finance at the time, appointed Mr Kieswetter as the SARS deputy commissioner. If he had read the SARS Act or the Nugent Commission report, he might know that the minister of finance possesses no such powers. He has to retract this forthwith." Manuel also accused Ndlozi of making"a series of scurrilous statements about Mr Kieswetter, that I am sure Mr Kieswetter can as easily refute. What I demand is a retraction, or Mr Ndlozi will have to face legal action. I will not be abused by schoolyard bullies."

ehlers_anthony Power speaks the truth for once.

If indeed you have a case against the EFF spokesperson why with the threats just make civil case also Manuel have alot of money to afford to sue

Possible bias may exist, although not really articulated well by Ndlozi EdKieswetter served as a deputy to Pravin while Manuel was a minister. Few years back former DG TreasuryRSA ended up CEO ABSA Another one governor of SARB Another one is CEO STD Bank What a coincidence?
