Go well, thank you for the thankless task that you took up. Best wishes and success at the SOAS. They need someone like you challenge them forward.

Go Well VC may God prosper wherever you go and let South Africa shine through you. You are a required salt in our dying country. I feel sad when people like you leave. South Africa needs you and you will always be remembered for your hard work and for trying to pull us up to global standards. One day we will get there. Maybe we will meet in UK in the future. God bless you.

Thank You, Adam, it was an honour to work with you! Thanks for your leadership, for taking the tough decisions taking everyone's views on board! Thanks for serving the institution of higher learning with excellence, serving your country! We wish you and your family well in your new position. As Chancellor, a Witsie and one of the current students, Wits was lucky to have. Go Well! Siyabonga.

Thanks for your service Prof!
Thank you for prioritising the Wits community and not the demands of a few loudmouths!
Best of luck in London.

You have done enough and have proven you racist, thank God you gone. But I wish you well please find it in you to change and stop embarrassing our country.

This outgoing VC should just shut up, he must just go in peace. Ideologically bankrupt!
