We South Africans have strong opinions and we have jokes. Oh, we have jokes for days. And we do not shy away from airing them – it’s kind of our new struggle song – slip up and we will, we will roast you!

So at the event, I asked his colleagues on his team if I could meet with him for 2 minutes. I just had one short question with regard to the Change Needs Help campaign… Why the change in the first place?
The crowd seemed to be growing stronger. As the lifts opened, we went in, but just then more and more people crammed into it too.Now here’s the thing. I am extremely claustrophobic. As a South African woman, I too am a statistic of a crime meted out against an individual. There was a moment when I had waited for my attacker to unlock the door and let me out to get help before I succumbed to my injuries, and that is the sort of anxiety that never seems to leave you.
But Obakeng did not need much of an explanation. She exited the lift with me. “It’s okay,” she soothed, “We’ll get the next one.”Again people crowded towards the lift, waiting to be taken to the floors they worked on. At this point, Obakeng – using her strong personality – held a hand across the doors as they glided opened. “Guys, I know you’ve been waiting. But please can you take the next one. This lady is claustrophobic and if we all cram in, we will cause her another panic attack. Please.
