Pointless paragraph

This paragraph is obscure, references something that was effectively a non-issue of no historical value, uses mealy-mouthed language ("seeming to imply") and appears to be vindictive:

"The author of the book, Redi Tlhabi, was subsequently criticised for seeming to imply in an exchange on social media that it was possible Khwezi lied."

Every comment every public figure makes these days will be criticised by someone. It's not the role of Wikipedia to recall every minor fracas.

In my view this paragraph should be deleted. Nathangeffen (talk) 10:23, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Since there's been no response, I'm assuming it will be ok to remove it. Nathangeffen (talk) 08:45, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

LegalZA has falsely alleged that I reverted his/her change because I am a friend of the author. For the record I am not a friend of the author. Nathangeffen (talk) 07:49, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
