Three important lessons I have learned about life:
1. Never lose diamonds while looking for stones.
2. Be patient, because time always reveals whose loss it truly was.
3. Enjoy it before it becomes a memory, because soon, it will be a memory.
I hope you are having a productive week!

Victims were reportedly persuaded to pay deposits or full purchase amounts for the fake properties.

After receiving the money, the suspect allegedly blocked communication with the victims and disappeared.

Police confirmed that one suspect linked to the case has already been arrested, while efforts continue to locate Singini.

Authorities are urging anyone with information about his whereabouts to contact the investigating officer, Lieutenant Colonel Motollo, or report information to the nearest police station.

I reject the derogatory term “amakwerekwere” completely. It is a slur used to insult fellow black Africans simply for being from another country. If loving and respecting other black Africans makes me a “kwerekwere”, then I am proudly one and I will never apologise for that.
I am against illegal immigration and have said so clearly and consistently. South Africa has every right to secure its borders and enforce its laws. But I will not support xenophobic hatred or the dehumanisation of innocent people who are here legally simply because they are black Africans from other countries.
Discrimination based on nationality or skin colour is wrong. We must deal firmly with illegality not turn fellow Africans into enemies. South Africa’s problems will not be solved by attacking people who look like us.
Let’s focus on the real issues: rule of law, border control, and building a better country for all South Africans without descending into tribalism or xenophobia.
Enough with the slurs.
