It cannot be right to celebrate the demise of others with a pun.I received the news of Archibald Mogweâs death with both nostalgia and sympathy. May his soul rest in eternal peace.When I heard that this political dinosaur had passed away at the age of 99 â almost double my age, I asked this newspaperâs editor if he was running a story on him – an obituary that is. On a tight deadline, Outsa Mokone probably thought I had gone bonkers. He did not give me a certain answer as he sifted through copy to select what goes and doesnât go into the lean paper of that week.
