''Mr Fix - what an idiot."

@alan_exton believes:

"Mr Fix It is an incompetent loudmouth without a clue how to fix anything let alone Prasa. He says he inherited a broken Prasa but he then just stuffed it up completely. Here comes a new contract ala BBEEE for the ANC. Well done Fikile, taxpayers money."
