Manto snubs Aids conference
05/06/2007 20:23 - (SA)

Durban - Health Minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang has withdrawn from a major Aids conference because she was not given a prominent place in the programme, the Deputy President said on Tuesday.

"The minister withdrew from the programme because of the place you put her in the programme," Deputy President Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka said.

She probably didn't belong at an AIDS conference anyway.

to be honest, what value could this person have added? nada/zip/buggerall - have we not suffered enough with all her ill considered outbursts / theories - her workings? have killed more South Africans than apartheid ever did. Put the damn cow out to pasture once and for all!

She could have served a very valuable purpose. She could have been exhibited as an example of the dangers of stupidity and incompetence.

LOL - nice one! Or the cooking section - drizzle some olive oil on your pizzle and you'll be fine!

Our president apparently has "every faith in her abilities". What does that tell us about him??
