Political Strategist and Researcher, Brutus Malada says it is "academic thuggery" the approach political analyst Prince Mashele took in writing a book about ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba. Malada spoke to us yesterday on the programme. He says there are a lot of ethical bridges by both Mashele and the publishers of the book called "The Outsider, the unauthorised biography" adding that, this can't be allowed. Malada, who's also a member of ActionSA says Mashele should have known better, but because of his cosy relationship with ActionSA, he ignored the ethics ought to be followed in writing a book. This after media reports emerged that, Herman Mashaba bribed Author, Prince Mashele with a 12 point five million rands to write a book about him. Malada says the right processes were not followed from the beginning. Prince Mashele joins us studio to respond to these allegations.
