I have a lot of respect for this black woman, intellectual, and generally amazing woman!!! She is one of those black women that make us proud to be black, African, and women. RESPECT MAMOKGETHI!!!!
JJ deserved the kind of responses he got from prof and being called out as a joke. I've listened to prof. In so many podcasts or interviews now, and she has never showed this side, but if you are like JJ and you throw sucka punches and say let's take a break, you gotta be willing to take the jabs as well, finish what you've started
@@geniuschando7728 LOL, Did you also Google how they gave her a golden handshake just to get rid of her? She was running the place into the ground. World recognized where really? Maybe she is recognized for the poor job she did
Both quite unprofessional and immature. I guess public persons need to be able to take others opinions with a pinch of salt and not be too touched if some views and comments are negative. Both should just have handled themselves better - I guess they each identified with a bit of truth in the public views made about them.
If he was just doing his job, he did it badly!! Why would he say something that negative and want to go to advertisements? You don't do that unless you just want to be controversial and not really have a genuine conversation. Of course, reputation is important, and if someone attacks your reputation on a national platform, then you have to defend it. JJ could have handled this better. Controversy does not always increase ratings. Sometimes, it could be that one thing that kills your show.
@@corniliuschiloane9938 an Academic of her calibre?? (you have not met enough academics)... EQ is for artist and creatives. So she is definitely displaying an adequate EQ level of a Professor of Mathematics.
The commentator here like our erstwhile VC is coming at this a bit too emotionally? And as a by the way she neither was the first black woman VC of UCT nor does she hold a PhD in Mathematics.
Completely disagree. JJ was doing his job as a journalist, and Phakeng failed to respond to the accusations, preferring weak ad hominem attacks on the interviewer. A good glimpse at why she is no longer a VC.
She is very bullish, arrogantly dumb(my opinion)...SA women will defend nonsense just because she is a "black" female. That's nonsense, and lacks fairness to those bullied by her and were also forced to resign as a result...
@@nzimadmz7131 I worked at UCT, and resigned because of her bullying behaviour. You people just speak from what you see not from what you've experienced. I know Mamokgethi on a personal interaction level, ever since she was appointed as the VC of UCT, she adopted this behaviour of thinking she is above everyone and only looked good for publicity purposes.
