Maimane showed leadership skills

Mmusi Maimane has constantly been accused of being a puppet who does the bidding of vested white interests in the DA, but he isn’t anyone’s puppet.

The press conference he held with Helen Zille on her colonialism tweets shows he is his own man.

I was taken aback to see them on a live broadcast together. He came across as decisive and I recognise his leadership.

What I liked the most is that he appeared genuinely upset with Zille’s tweets, which reflects my own view. Nozuko Sotashe, Soweto
