To introduce the recipient of Waloba Award 2015, I take the liberty of reproducing an edited version of my speech to him on his 50^th birthday earlier in 2015:

• You don’t know what it’s like
  To love somebody
  To love a Brother
  The way I love you …
• Modern, enlightened, liberated men happily declare their love for one another openly even if their love is not of a physically intimate nature. Some call it Bromance. In any case, in South Africa, land of the free, home of the brave, people love who they love, as provided for, and enshrined in the constitution of the land.
• I’ve heard it said somewhere that if you are not grown up yet by age 50, forget it, you’ll never grow up … (Continued in the book: “MACHONA AWAKENING – home in grey matter”. Order book on Amazon).
