William Archie Whitehead and Lorna Daniels are not South African at heart

Mike Hampton Posted on by

William Archie Whitehead is South Africa’s High Commissioner in Namibia. Lorna Daniels, previously State Security, is his assistant who met me in Windhoek. On the phone, Whitehead, who is likely paid very well, said he’s only a postman. Lorna Daniels received a lot of information about corruption from me yet refused to act urgently, saying she’d send it to DIRCO, and then return to me in two weeks.

I want the past 9 years to be over, rather as a winner but, if necessary, as statement. VICTORY OR DEATH Given the money, I’d extend my life as long as I can – whoosh, I’d be in another country writing the second ‘Same Shit, Different Government’ book, and giving our Government more time to correspond with me and meaningfully investigate the corruption I’ve exposed. … Read the full article…
