Whenever the Black leaders do not know what to say they call racism.... it is sad.

I had a lot of respect for Tito :(

I'll apply my motto "if you can't beat them, join them" here.

In other words, I'll chuck my KFC bag out of the window too, so that the black guy sees it, then we have something in common and I build up another contact. You never know when you might need a favour from the guy someday in the future.

I am not kidding here.

I checked the 702 website, could only find podcast highlights of the redi direcko show this morning... not the actual clip. Apparently they also played it on 94.7. Arg... someone must have this mp3
 
Email 702 or cape talk, they will put it up if people ask.

Johannesburg - Tito Mboweni, the governor of the South African Reserve Bank, was asked by shareholder Mario Pretorius on Friday to apologise for a comment made at the bank's annual general meeting.
At the AGM, held on Thursday, Pretorius asked Mboweni to bring the meeting to order.

The governor refused and Pretorius said "shocking."

This prompted a further response from the governor who said that Pretorius should not address him in the manner used by whites when talking to blacks during the apartheid era.

"I shall not permit you to talk to me like whites used to talk to blacks", Mboweni said.

Pretorius, in an open letter to Mboweni, said he requested an apology for the accusation that he spoke to the governor in a racist manner.

"It may be argued that this was a reply from you in the heat of the moment and should you apologise immediately in the public media and personally by way of a reciprocal letter, I shall accept your apology unconditionally," Pretorius said.

"Should you refrain to apologise, I will then accept that you are in fact a racist," Pretorius added.

Mboweni's office could not be immediately reached for comment
