GHANA: 'WE WILL TAKE SOUTH AFRICA TO THE CLEANERS!'
Ghana Minister of Foreign Affairs has threatened to make South Africa pay heavily for the crimes committed against his people.
Contrast this to the BMW’s largest IT hub outside Germany being in Pretoria developing software & managing systems used across 134 countries. Why would Amazon, Microsoft/Google/Oracle/IBM have their regional headquarters in RSA?
South Africans are deeply frustrated and with good reason about illegal immigration and the pressure it places on already scarce opportunities.
But the real crisis is not the immigrants themselves. The root cause is our failure, over the past fifteen years, to deliver inclusive economic growth that creates enough jobs, dignity and hope for our own people.
This failure has been driven by three systemic issues we can no longer ignore:
• A collapse in the rule of law that has enabled corruption, criminality, land invasions, illegal migration, and the brazen theft of electricity and water.
• Bureaucracy and red tape that continue to strangle enterprise, deter investment and kill job creation.
• Incompetent and, in too many cases, corrupt leadership in key positions across government, state-owned enterprises and parts of the private sector.
As leaders, we must have the courage to look in the mirror and ask a difficult but necessary question: How have we allowed these conditions to take root and persist?
This question is not about blame. It is about responsibility and that is precisely why it is empowering. It places the power to change things back where it belongs: with us. We are not helpless. We are not victims of forces beyond our control. By focusing on what lies within our sphere of influence our decisions, our standards, our willingness to confront uncomfortable truths and act decisively, we can begin to reverse the damage we have helped create.
The time for self-criticism and honest reflection is now. The time for excuses has long passed. South Africa’s future will be determined by leaders who are prepared to own their part in the mess and do the hard, disciplined work required to fix it.
Wife travelled to Dubai for two weeks
She returned home to her husband and children
Night came, husband perceived that the wife was smelling strangely
Husband told wife his observation and told wife she has to get checked up by the doctor or gynaecologist
The test was done, and the wife was diagnosed with a sexually transmitted infection
Wife told husband she has been faithful even though a rich indian man followed her throughout her stay in Dubai
She swore she didn't sleep with the man
Six years later, the two of them were getting a divorce
Wife wrote as part of her accusations against her husband
"He gave me a sexually transmitted infection."
Husband called me and has been screaming curses at her and her lawyers since...
He said he refused to accuse her of infidelity, despite the obvious evidence and she has now accused him of infidelity and used what she did as evidence against him
It’s damn scary to read that “more than half employed South Africans suffer from a mental health condition”, perhaps this is a reflection of how bad South African workplaces continues to be for women and young adults. Numbers don’t lie.
Nigeria has a long history of xenophobia and inter-ethnic violence - and the perpetuators have never been in the majority.
The problem is; the majority does nothing as xenophobia and inter-ethnic violence intensifies - because they are either too afraid, or too unbothered to act.
“The illegal immigrants must go, the people of South Africa will not eat Pan-Africanism, we can’t eat senseless ideologies. The problem is this education systems that produced so many stupid intellectuals, it has produced so many Thabo Mbekis and very few Jacob Zumas who see themselves as the only thinkers in society.” - Mcebo Dlamini on @podcastwithmacg
