My aunt is now threatening me to go to the police station and tell them that I cannot testify so they can withdraw the case.They only care about my uncle and don't even care about a 7-year-old child. That's unbelievable💔
You will learn to stop grovelling and back your country like everyone else. I’m glad they’re showing you flames so you can stop ignoring and betraying your citizens in the name of pandering. Nilayekile bo doti.
The cybersecurity community has been sounding the alarm for months. The usual response is denial, deflection, or silence.
A month ago concerns were raised. They were dismissed as misinformation. Now we’re back here again. The problem isn’t the warning.
The problem is refusing to listen to it.
Especially in a country with our mineral resource base and manufacturing / agricultural capacity such as SA.
If managed correctly - a strong technical or vocational qualification should guarantee one a good life in an economy like ours.
Today, we mourn the loss of Abdullah Ibrahim (1934-2026).
A giant of South African and global jazz, we are honoured that his final public performance took place on the Rosies Stage at CTIJF on 27 March 2026.
Rest in peace, maestro. Your music lives on. 🕊️🎹

Every woman who has had an encounter with a man can relate. Which is why I hate the notion that men are not trash. Because history shows they are not good people. They call us bitter (and many other horrible words to defend men) and want to lie to young girls. #ThePolygamist
