The Editor, Noseweek; Africa's only Investigative Magazine.
I qualified as a lawyer, but have been an investigative journalist most of my working life. I value honesty, a sense of justice, a sense of humour and my journalistic independence. My special field of interest is the interface between government/politics and business. I have long appreciated that corporations are as prone to abuse their power as politicians are, although judges misguidedly too often still regard and protect all the activities of corporations as "private", perhaps because lawyers themselves identify with the power and financial elite of society. I believe democracy is the best, but not the easiest option.
I am tolerant of – even interested in – the beliefs of others. I marvel at nature. Environmental issues have to be important to everyone.
I am married - to a journalist - and have 5 children ranging in age from 41 to 11.
