I’m told that this Champ is no more and was laid to rest some time last year. May His Soul Rest In Eternal Peace. His message is still relevant and was sincerely trying to encourage us as the runners. RIP Mr Dlamini 🕊️

I’m still trying to figure out what the point of that Winnie documentary was….or nina niyazi?

Mission accomplished, I guess….I somehow admire her even more!✊🏾❤️

This woman was a wartime leader. She was tougher and braver than half our male leadership, so it’s no surprise that she faced the kind of resistance she did.

Was she human? Of course! Did she make mistakes? Absolutely! But were her mistakes worse than those of her male counterparts, including the Cachalias of this world? Very doubtful. But because she was a woman, a bold one for that matter, her flaws must be magnified and paraded on global TV.

Her wartime decisions are judged and dissected in peacetime, when everyone is suddenly on a high moral horse, so of course she will be a villain among saints!

Continue to rest in peace Mama❤️🕊️

Guys when you see any post about Mazwi please just retweet it , we need to make noise . We need to be heard #BringMazwiBack

[Pule Letshwiti-Jones @pule_jones]

Its been nearly a month since the alleged kidnapping of Mazwi.

The family alleges he was kidnapped for opening a spaza shop in his community. They further claim investigators are not communicating updates.

The allegation:

When the sister asked his friends who hung around his tuck shop, they told her that there was a guy by the name of "Zulu" who had been putting pressure on Mazwi to "sell" his tuck shop to "Pakistanis." Mazwi had been refusing as he didn't understand why this guy was begging him to give up the tuck shop.

The family further claims there is a security company protecting owners of some of these tuck shops in the area, or forcing some to close them down.

This story deserves the necessary attention.

Justice for #MazwiMpumeleloKubheka
