The comments made by Mandla Ncikazi, head coach of the Golden Arrows, on family issues, personal difficulties, and the need to speak about one's loved ones with respect have garnered a lot of attention.
Upon his return to Abafana Bes'thende from Orlando Pirates, Ncikazi made it plain that he does not believe in publicly exposing individuals or families' hardships.
It was said that the seasoned strategist made the statement, "Every house has a toilet," implying that every family has personal problems that shouldn't be brought up in public. "You don't air your family's grievances as a man," Ncikazi said.
His evident conviction in moderation, respect, and maintaining people's dignity despite differences or challenges was further shown by his assertion that he would never talk harshly about anybody, further emphasising his viewpoint.
Given Ncikazi's public exit from Orlando Pirates and subsequent return to Golden Arrows as head coach, the remarks have piqued curiosity.
After five fruitful years with the Buccaneers, during which he helped a technical squad win the league and other domestic titles, the 57-year-old finally decided to hang up his cleats.
Another significant chapter in his coaching career has been marked by his return to Golden Arrows. During his previous tenure, he led the Durban-based club to their best-ever Premiership four-place finish in the 2020–21 season.
The onus is now on Ncikazi to put the squad back together and make them competitive again in South African football.
His most recent comments have garnered notice outside of the football world, but they also serve to bring attention to a larger discussion on privacy, loyalty, and the public handling of delicate family problems.
It seems like the message is rather clear to Ncikazi: people shouldn't use their family problems as a weapon to criticise others.
Background information about Ncikazi's comeback to Golden Arrows can be found in recent coverage by SABC Sport and iDiski Times. None of those publications have independently confirmed the particular quote about the family.
