The first day I stood at this podium and thanked God for this opportunity was the day I met Prof Ishmail Mohammed. He had written me a letter of encouragement and we went on to work together on the minerals and energy and of course, that committee was chaired by Duma Nkosi and organized by Tanya Lyons who is an official today. Both of these people set the highest standard of excellence in their work which I benefited from.
