What is Mbeki and Tutu Fussing Over

So South Africa's anti-apartheid elder statesman, the former Archbishop Desmond Tutu has accused Thabo Mbeki's government of enriching a few while the vast majority of the population stayed poor. How plausibe is this accusation? Is Tutu right?

In addition Tutu is reported to have said "We need to find ways in which we engage the hoi polloi, the so-called masses, the people, in public discourse through indabas, town-hall forums, so that no one feels marginalised and that their point of view matters, it counts. "We should debate more openly - not using emotive language. We should not be browbeaten by pontificating decrees from on high. It should be possible to talk as adults about these issues without engaging in slanging matches."

Mbeki retaliates saying "The archbishop has never been a member of the ANC, and would have very little knowledge of what happens even in an ANC branch. How he comes to the conclusion that there is 'lack of debate' in the ANC is most puzzling. "Rational discussion about how the ANC decides its policies requires some familiarity with the internal procedures of the ANC, rather than gratuitous insults about our members, based on a refusal to 'accept the bona fides of all' for which he appealed."

What a prekeh!! Can you imagine! Is this a squabble or there is more to it? Is it that Mbeki a dis the elder statesman? Let's see where this one goes and I really hope it stop soon!!
