Please be aware of this car in the Ruimsig area. I donโt know what the situation is but we witnessed the lady whoโs a passenger, fighting the driver trying to jump out. Weโve informed nearby security personnel and they are attempting to reach the car. Hate to cause panic but would be more regretful to turn a blind eye.
I work for a company where you will act in a position for a year, then they appoint someone else and you are told you're not qualified/experienced enough for the position yet they expect you to train the new person๐๐I am so torn. I pray God comes through for me with a new job.
I want South African women, but especially those in positions of power & visibility to get it through their heads that weโre not killed because we arenโt vigilant enough but because the general debasement of women bleeds into the very structures that are supposed to protect us.
The fact that despite all hope, most of us knew this would be the likely outcome really tells you about the abysmal state of things in South Africa.
Iโm so terribly sorry, Tsontso!
I always tell people that we should not look at Zim but Nigeria. Money can buy you comfort, security and distance from hardship, but it cannot completely insulate you from a failing country. You can build higher walls, drive a more expensive car, pay for private healthcare and send your children to private schools but you still drive on the same roads, depend on the same institutions, live under the same laws and inherit the consequences of the same broken systems. Look at Joburg for example
Elizabeth, also known as Tsontso, is STILL MISSING. Please do not stop spreading the word. Share her pictures and these posters. If you have ANY information about her whereabouts, contact the numbers on the posters immediately. Every share could help bring her home.

Running backwardsโฆ or are they? ๐๐
Our presenters were challenged to run backwards, and they took it VERY seriously! ๐๐พโโ๏ธ๐จ
Little did they know, the footage would be reversed in the final edit, making it look like they were running forwardsโฆ backwards! ๐คฏ๐
The concentration was intense.
The execution? Even better. ๐ญ
Whose reverse running was the funniest?

A reporter asked Lamine Yamal how he handles the pressure of carrying Spain at 18. His answer: my mother had me when she was 16, that's real pressure. My father picked things off the street to bring food home, that's pressure. All I have to do is play football.
That's the whole story of who he is, and most fans only know the surface of it.
Before he was born, his teenage parents fell behind on rent. Two neighbors named Lamine and Yamal covered them, and his father vowed his son would carry both names forever. His legal name is a permanent record of a debt his family couldn't repay in money. In Arabic, the names mean "the trustworthy" and "beauty."
His parents split when he was around 5. His mother raised him in Granollers on a fast food wage. And here's the detail almost nobody knows: that job is the reason he became a footballer. Through work she met the daughter of the youth coordinator at CF La Torreta, his first club. When she worried she couldn't cover the fees, he told her that if the boy wants to play, money will never be the reason he can't.
As a kid, Lamine told his parents: if you're counting on me getting a normal job, we're in trouble. But if I become a footballer, you'll never have to worry again.
He signed with Barcelona at 7. He was right by 15.
Every goal, he flashes 304 with his fingers. The end of 08304, the postal code of Rocafonda, the neighborhood where strangers paid his family's rent before he existed. It gets credited on every goal since.
Today, at 19, he plays for the World Cup. And if he scores tonight, somewhere in the biggest broadcast on Earth, two neighbors will hear their names, and a postal code will flash on 2 billion screens.
THE TSHUMA CASE: The Legal Clash of 2 Countries.
A British citizen is arrested in Joburg, accused of a horrific triple murder in the UK but he also has an illegal gun case in South Africa. Why isn't he being extradited immediately?
1/ The Jurisdictional Clash: SA Gun Charge vs. UK Murder Charge:
Tshuma was caught in Kensington with an unlicensed firearm (which SAPS suspects was for self-harm). Under SA law (Extradition Act 67/1962), when domestic charges are pending, extradition is usually stayed until local proceedings and sentences are concluded.
This means, technically, SA has the right to try him for the gun charge 1st which carries up to 15 yrs in prison.
2/ Will the NPA Fast-Track Him Anyway?
Yes, likely. The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) can make a strategic decision to withdraw or postpone the local firearm charge to expedite the extradition.
Why? Because prosecuting a minor local weapon offense is vastly outweighed by bringing a suspected triple-murderer to justice in the UK. Itโs a matter of international comity (cooperation between nations).
3/ The 40-Day Clock is Ticking
Right now, Tshuma is held under a Provisional Arrest Request sent via Interpol Manchester to Interpol Pretoria. Under SA extradition procedures, this is only a temporary hold.
The UK Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) now has 40 days to submit a formal, fully-documented extradition request containing the case dockets and evidence. If they miss this deadline, SA courts must release him from the extradition hold.
4/ The Strategic Bail Decision
Tshuma's defense team temporarily declined to apply for bail. This was a highly calculated legal move, not a surrender.
Given that he allegedly fled the UK on a British passport and is facing triple-murder charges, he is the definition of a flight risk. A bail application right now would be a guaranteed, costly loss. They are waiting to see what the UK formally submits first.
5/ Why this Extradition is easier than US cases
In SA law, we cannot extradite someone to a country where they might face the death penalty (following the landmark Mohamed ConCourt case), unless we get a written guarantee they won't be executed.
Because the UK abolished the death penalty decades ago, this massive diplomatic roadblock is entirely non-existent. Once the paperwork is verified on July 22, the road to sending him back is legally wide open.โ๏ธ
