A beautiful tribute by @JohanLorenzen to Sibusiso Mqadi, the chairperson of the Amadiba Crisis Committee who passed on in early November.
"He supported the development of the community’s clearest demand: the demand for a #Right2SayNo to mining." https://twitter.com/JohanLorenzen/status/1331111554981441536
Sibusiso Mqadi was not only a powerful leader, but also a remarkable human being and friend.
Thank you to @dailymaverick for carrying my reflections on Sbu's awesome life, spirit, and fight for his community's #Right2SayNo to mining -->
