Councillors really should be required to be a resident of a municipality or ward to be elected there because what is this nonsense

The famous Political KwaZulu-Natal Task Team (PKTT) sings a song that sends a strong message to any person who's against their mandate. "Ngalento esiyenza, asinalo uvalo" which is lously translated as we're not afraid of what we're doing.

People like Fadiel Adams, Bafana Sindane, General Feroz Khan, General Kadwa, Cat Matlala, Katiso Molefe, Joe Sibanyoni and many more can attest to this.

Know this turn has been in the making for a while but this is a bit like if the Pope announced he was becoming a Buddhist

One thing about this man is that he is an excellent communicator. It's honestly a joy watching him unpack complex things in simple language. Showing he understands it himself. More politicians can take a leaf from his book on this

Latest unemployment data reminded me of this post. There’s a whole generation of young South Africans losing their most productive years.

They steal and then they build nothing. It's just consumption, consumption, consumption...

@Ndala_Momane BEE also incentivises this unnecessary outsourcing. WHy directly hire miners, labourers, etc when you can outsource it and claim the BEE spend as from black owned businesses for your scorecard. THen the guy with the contract skims the cream and underpays his workers.

[Muhammed Lokhat @Molocks_]

@Ndala_Momane Ndala I can't agree with you more but I'm cognisant we can't give ammunition to those who are racist and anti-transformation at the core. The other problem is that the BEE surplus is going toward cars and building shopping malls rather than manufacturing...

Michael,as a former mainstream bank CEO,would you have accepted that "poor rural dweller's" new title deed as collateral for loan/funding?

[Muhammed Lokhat @Molocks_]

@talkcentss You know what I hear you but i think you're prob someone who can put the same money elsewhere and be disciplined enough to not dip into it until retirement, which I don't think is most SAfricans. Hence the RA...

Apartheid South Africa was once a utopia for racists. When the country did not collapse under black governance as many predicted - and instead emerged as a key actor in global affairs - South Africa become a living and breathing antagonist to White Supremacist ideology

U see he used his own money fixing a neglected municipal field and turned it into a beautiful park.
No BEE certificate. No tender. No bribe. No cousin at themunicipality. Just initiative. Now the same municipality is asking legal questions instead of saying thank you 🤡THIS is the kind of persons we should be empowering — not tenderpreneurs who destroy cities and call it transformation.

[iScathulo SePhara 👞 @ISephara]

Let me get this straight:

Police arrest illegal immigrants
>> Courts release them on bail
>> Police must go and try find them again for not honoring bail conditions

What a clownish judicial system.🤡 Absolute horror.
