You MUST by all means develop a strong opinion of yourself so you don't end up internalizing the beliefs others have of you.

The rewards team at @WOOLWORTHS_SA have the easiest job… their mandate for #MyDifference is literally to add no value to clients…

FINALLY. A refreshing, well-considered and self-reflective stance. Kudos to Minister Nduhungirehe.

After the failed “repatriations”, every government should be asking itself some tough questions:

Why are our people choosing to risk their lives and live undocumented abroad?

What are we doing wrong?

How do we fix it?

The answers are, of course, already known to those governments.

But why improve conditions at home when it is far easier to fan the flames of fear and rally people around an external enemy deflecting from your own failures?

It is what it is, and will always be. Like sands through the hourglass… so go the Politics of Scapegoating.

Let me educate you not with anger, but with truth. You assume South Africans lack exposure. You assume we believe other African countries are poor and undeveloped. That is not the case. We know the reality. We know Nigeria has oil. We know Ghana has gold. We know Kenya has tech. We know Botswana has diamonds. We know Zambia has copper. We know Zimbabwe has platinum and lithium. We know the DRC sits on $24 trillion in minerals. We know Africa is rich.

But here is what you do not understand, wealth beneath the ground does not translate to prosperity above it. You can have all the minerals in the world but if your leaders steal, your constitutions hostile towards humans rights, if your institutions are corrupt, if your people are divided by tribe, if your healthcare collapses, if your schools crumble, if your youth flee then you are poor. Not in resources. In governance. In accountability. In dignity.

We do not look down on Africa. We look at the mirror Africa refuses to face. We see our own flaws corruption, unemployment, crime and we fight them. We protest. We vote. We demand better. That is what makes us different. We do not run. We stay. We build. We hold our leaders accountable, even when it hurts.

You say we lack exposure. But we see you. We see your leaders flying overseas to get treated, some in our country to get medical treatment, while your children starve. We see your ports exporting raw minerals while your people have no jobs. We are not blind. We are not ignorant. We are honest.

The difference between South Africa and many other African countries is not wealth. It is the willingness to confront failure. We own ours. You run from yours. That is not a lack of exposure. That is a lack of accountability. And until you fix that, no mineral, no resource, no tweet will save you. Go home. Fix your house. Then talk to us about exposure.
