“I’m just one guy; I left radio in 2007. Some people say it’s because of my skin colour that I got attention. I don’t think so. I think it was my anger and how loud I shouted. “There are millions of South Africans who have gone through our hospitals, been treated, and sent home. we are not going to sit here and argue that we don’t have problems.
