I can tell you now for free that SA has an oversupply of tech professionals. There's a bottle neck that is artificially created to drive down the cost of hiring black tech professionals.
It's systematic labour discrimination. Then white people get better international offers then suddenly there's a "brain drain".
The playbook never changes, just the plot.
PLEASE REPOST:
I applied for funding from @IDCSouthAfrica and @NEFCORP. But was rejected because they said “Lack of financial viability” & “old equipment.”
Yet we operate a 14,000sqm factory with international offtake agreements and over 150 job and skills opportunities.
Yesterday I told you how the @IDCSouthAfrica gave me R0 over 8 years while giving R69.9m to a white-owned competitor.
That thread reached hundreds of thousands of people.
But the IDC is not the only institution that failed Green Scooter. The DTIC watched. Ministers were informed. Nobody moved.

PLEASE REPOST:
I built South Africa's first black-owned electric vehicle company.
I have deployed 70+ EVs with Blue Chip Companies, Local SMEs and exported to the UAE.
I have invested R9.5 million of my own money over 10 years.
The IDC has given me R0.
They gave a white-owned competitor R69.9 million.

They forgot to tell you that he is picked by the Oppenheimers and globalists to further their New World Order policies; he is going to be a puppet far worse than Cyril Ramaphosa. He is very evil and anti-Black.
Indigenous Africans don't have a time of arrival in Africa, don't have anywhere else to disown,don't have to pledge loyalties,support any teams,align to any policies let alone write long essays demanding everyone to accept their African identity.
Only colonial settlers do that.

There is far more to South Africa’s challenges than the supposed “inability” of Black people to govern.
South Africa was built with Black labour and Black resources. The mines, the farms, the roads, the cities—everything of value was created by Black hands, yet Black people were systematically excluded from owning or enjoying what they built.
Apartheid was not just “bad”—it was one of the most brutal, systematic crimes against humanity in modern history. Black families were forcibly removed from homes they had built with their own hands and from land their ancestors had farmed for generations, then dumped into barren “homelands” that were little more than concentration camps. Fathers were torn from their children and forced to live in single-sex hostels, working as near-slaves for white-owned companies.
The best schools, hospitals, beaches, suburbs, and infrastructure—built with the country’s wealth—were reserved exclusively for whites. Prime areas like Ikoyi, Banana Island, and even the reclaimed swamps of Lekki were seized and declared “white only.”
Yes, there is loadshedding today. But for decades Eskom and nearly every critical position in the energy sector were controlled by white executives and engineers. Only after some of them left—and the full extent of deliberate mismanagement, corruption, and even sabotage was exposed—did the situation begin to stabilise in certain periods.
During apartheid, electricity was reliable because it was prioritised for white homes and white industries. Now that millions of Black households have been connected to the grid for the first time, demand has exploded on an ageing system that was never designed to serve the majority. New power stations are being built, but progress has been slow—partly because powerful interests frustrated Jacob Zuma’s nuclear deal with Russia, preferring alignment with Western powers.
Even today, a white employee with only a matric- equivalent of WAEC often earns more and is promoted faster than a Black graduate doing the same job—because white families and networks still control most large companies and the economy.
The South African Reserve Bank? Still privately owned by shareholders who are overwhelmingly white. Many major state contracts quietly flow to the same old firms.
Some of the best government schools in places like Ikoyi still carry the Latin mottos and traditions of the white Catholic orders that founded them—reminders that the system was built for a tiny minority.
So when people who have never lived here—or worse, Black people from elsewhere—casually blame Black South Africans for the country’s struggles, they display breathtaking ignorance and insensitivity. Nelson Mandela did not have the luxury of waging a full revolution in 1994; the choice was a negotiated settlement or a bloodbath that would have destroyed the country. The same forces that assassinated Chris Hani and countless others would not have hesitated to plunge South Africa into civil war.
Apartheid was evil beyond words. Visit Robben Island, the Apartheid Museum, or any township and see the evidence for yourself. The sabotage never fully stopped; some simply changed tactics. Many who plundered the country for decades are now quietly leaving with their billions, while others stay behind to undermine a government trying to correct centuries of theft.
The struggle is not over. It just looks different now.
