ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

I thank writers of my young days, for my inspiration to fall in love with the power of unfettered expression, such as Aggrey Klaaste and Suzette Mafuna, writing in their respective columns: On Line and Stray Bullet and emotionally empting themselves on their pieces of work . Maya Angelou, Oprah Winfrey and Whoopi Goldberg’s brand of African - American’s knack for feisty self -expression. Mothobi Motloatse for licentious use and peppering of his work with raw unpolished African idiom and pun . And lastly Harry Gwala for his inflammable political rhetoric abandon during our critical political transition period.

Purpose

The purpose of this book is ostentatiously to usher in and embolden the reader and learner especially from formerly colonized and closed societies, to begin to enjoy and appreciate the freedom of word power as another useful liberation and self-healing tool. Also to continue to entertain the world’s free community with a newly explored ‘ word - power’ zest and usage from the emerging societies.

But if you've been in the kitchen my dear, peeling onions, you wash your hands not so? What was funny about washing my hands after doing something? What is the problem? - Jacob Zuma

I was introduced to soccer in a round about way through my uncle Trevor a drug dealer. If there was talk about the progress of Jamaica in the world cup I knew it was really code for a weed deal.
