NKOSI'S LAST FIGHT

Nkosi Johnson’s 12th birthday is on February 4. But even if he lives that long, it will be
his last. Already, South Africa of all races are in mourning for him. In the war against AIDS,
they don’t come any tougher than Nkosi.
He was born Xolami Nkosi in a township slum east of Johannesburg. He never knew his
father. His mother, Nomthlanthla Daphme Nkosi, was HIV-positive and passed along the
virus to her unborn baby. He became a statistic-one of more than 70,000 children born HIV-
positive every year in South Africa, where an estimated one-half of the population under the
age of 15 will die of AIDS-related causes over the next decade.
But Xolami was a fighter. He survived beyond his second birthday, which is unusual in
HIV-infected babies. As the disease began to sap his mother’s strength, he was admitted with
her to a crowded AIDS care center in Johannesburg. It was there that Gail Johnson, a
volunteer worker, saw the wide-eyed Zulu boy and his ailing mother. She was obviously
dying, and he was living on borrowing time. " It was very personal and mutual
understanding, "says John". I had had a graphic encounter with an AIDS death close to my
family, and I wanted to do something more than just talk about it. And there was Nkosi. All I
had to do was to reach out to him. "
His mother readily agreed for Johnson to become Nkosi’s foster-mother. As Nkosi
Johnson, he had a home in a neat Johannesburg suburb and wide circle of friends as Nkosi
died of an AIDS-related illness in 1997. In the same year, Gail and Nkosi Johnson won a
different battle. When she tried to enroll him in primary school, there was opposition from
some parents because of his HIV-positive status. Johnson went public with a complaint and
won her case. Nkosi went to school.
The story of Nkosi Johnson has galvanized AIDS-awareness campaigners. With at least
one of every 10 South Africa HIV-positive, the century faces a public health disaster that will
hit poor, populous black communities the most. Nkosi once said he wished he were a white
person because he never saw a white person get sick. Dr Zola Skweyiya, Minister for social
Development, warned last year that the AIDS epidemic could result in blacks becoming a
minority in their country... " We South Africans — and all others on this continent and in the
world — have to learn to acknowledge and treat with humanity those who are living with
AIDS. There can be no better monument to Nkosi, the child who has made us confront our
frail humanity and our own deepest fears, than this”.
For all the misery that Nkosi has had to suffer, he is one of the Lucky ones, says Johnson.
"He was accepted, he was loved. " Among these calling at the Johnson home last week were
school friends whose parents once warned them not to get closer to him.....Contributions to
Johnson’s AIDS care trust have allowed for the opening of a second Nkosi’s haven in the
Johannesburg townships this month. Johnson hopes there will be many more. Nkosi’s name
in Zulu means Lord, or king of kings will live on.
