Mqondobanzi Magonya sent an e-mail saying, "Look at what they are doing while we are busy bickering."

In response to the e-mail, one well know and respected activist wrote in an e-mail saying "Nansi indaba. It is such communication that help some of us stay the course despite the challenges we face in this journey. This University was fought for by our Fathers and many of you who are still living today. Why: To ensure that our children can have a university they can call their own. Can we say that today when we look at the attached list? If we cannot get the message when we look at the attached, I just do not know how else we can ever get it. I just do not know.

The activist made it clear that people should not complain about the list but should come up with practical solutions.

"Please get me. This is not sent to all so we can start complaining all over again. No. No. No. This is forwarded to all so we can think of practical things that we can do to reverse the obvious," concluded the activist.
