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.

The absence of permanent African seats on the Security Council is indefensible.
The Security Council must reflect todayβs world. This is 2026 β not 1946.
Whenever decisions about Africa and the world are on the table, Africa must be at the table.
Besties ..
Just in for (South Africa)
As of February 2026, South Africans are being warned about a surge in "RAT" (Remote Access Trojan) attacks, a sophisticated form of digital fraud where criminals gain full control of a victim's smartphone to operate banking apps in real time. Unlike traditional phishing, these attacks do not necessarily require stealing login credentials; instead, they hijack the device itself, making the fraudulent transactions appear legitimate to the bank.Β
How the Scam Works
The attack typically follows a specific sequence of social engineering and technical manipulation:
Fraudsters send a message or call the victim, often impersonating a bank official, courier company, or government department
They claim there is an "urgent problem," such as a blocked account or a failed delivery, to pressure the victim into acting quickly.
The victim is instructed to click a link or install an app (often shared via WhatsApp or SMS) to "fix" the issue.
Once installed, the RAT allows the criminal to view the screen, capture PINs, and intercept One-Time Passwords (OTPs) while the user is still using the phone.Β
Thank me later .

Mixing Business Travel with personal travel engagement, is one one of the ways you can save travel costs. I attended a funeral in TΕ‘atane yesterday and decided to attend a business engagement on my way back. Visited Mminanoko Eco Guest House in Mamphokgo Village.

In Hugo we STILL believe. π
