The Prophets Were Right
Oliver Tambo warned us. He said: "A corrupt ANC will be worse than apartheid." We nodded. We agreed. We believed him. But we did not listen. We did not act. And now we are living his prophecy.
Chris Hani feared the very thing we are seeing today. He said: "What I fear is that the liberators emerge as elitists who drive around in Mercedes Benzes and use the resources of this country to live in palaces and to gather riches." And that is exactly what happened. The same leaders who spoke of sacrifice now live in luxury. The same leaders who marched with the poor now feast while the people starve. They have become exactly what they fought against elitists, disconnected, indifferent.
Nelson Mandela gave us the final instruction. He said: "If the ANC does to you what the Apartheid government did to you, then you must do to the ANC what you did to the Apartheid government." This is not a call to violence. It is a call to action. It is a call to hold them accountable. It is a call to protest, to vote, to march, to demand just as we did against apartheid.
The ANC has become corrupt. They have become elitists. They have become the very thing they swore to destroy. They have failed us. And now we must act.
We must do to the ANC what we did to the apartheid government. We must rise. We must speak. We must vote them out. We must demand better. We must not accept silence. We must not accept theft. We must not accept mediocrity.
The question is, will we listen? Will we act? Or will we let their warnings fade into history while we suffer the consequences of our inaction?
South Africa, the time is now. The prophets have spoken. It is our turn to act. Voetsak ANC🇿🇦✊🏾
South Africans are really lazy people.
The majority of them wake up at 4am to prepare for jobs where they work six or seven days a week, yet still don't earn enough to make ends meet. Very lazy.
Go to the taxi ranks before sunrise. You will find men loading commuters and women preparing to sell food, only to repeat it again the next day. Lazy people.
Walk into the banks. You will find employees wearing the bank's uniform, earning salaries that often cannot qualify them for a home loan from the very institution they work for. Talk about laziness.
Go to the supermarkets. You will find them stacking shelves with groceries they cannot afford to put into their own trolleys. Lazy.
Walk into clothing stores. You will find workers folding expensive clothes they cannot afford to buy themselves. Seven days a week. Lazy.
Stand at the warehouses. Watch people offloading trucks all day so another truck can take its place. Lazy.
Some of these "lazy" people grew up in villages where they walked kilometres to school, crossed rivers in the rain, studied by candlelight, graduated from university, and today stand at traffic lights holding up CVs because there are no jobs waiting for them. Lazy.
Others cannot afford to retire because electricity keeps rising, municipal bills keep increasing, and the cost of living keeps climbing faster than their pensions. Lazy.
Every day I see South Africans trying to build businesses. I see them posting their products, advertising their services, chasing customers, paying taxes, and fighting to survive. There never seems to be enough money to help them grow. But somehow, there is always enough money to fight them. These lazy People.
So yes...
South Africans are very lazy people.🙂
So lazy their leadership keeps expecting more from them while delivering less in return and wanting to die of old age in Parliamentary seats. What a lazy Nation I proudly belong to...🇿🇦
YES to proper border control.
YES to stronger immigration laws.
YES to law and order.
YES to safer communities.
YES to jobs for South Africans.
YES to functioning hospitals and public services.
YES to putting South Africans first in South Africa.

🚨“South Korea has a problem, and it’s the No. 10 of South Africa!” 🎙️🔥
Those were the words from the commentator, and it’s hard to disagree.
Making his first-ever FIFA World Cup start, Relebohile Mofokeng has announced himself on the biggest stage with confidence, quality, and composure beyond his years. 🇿🇦✨
Every touch oozes class. Every pass carries purpose. Every time he gets on the ball, South Korea look worried.
A pure No. 10. A footballer in the truest sense of the word. 🎩⚽
Mofokeng isn’t here just to make up the numbers—he’s here to play football, entertain, and make a difference for Bafana Bafana. What a talent South Africa has on its hands.
The future is bright, and the world is starting to take notice. ⭐🇿🇦
Take a bow, Relebohile Mofokeng! 👏💚💛
History makers.
Hugo, you’ve been worth your mouth in gold.
Boys, you’re the first to do it, and now you’ll forever be remembered as the team that showed the way.
🥉 Bronze medal.
🌍 World Cup qualification.
🏆 A place in the Last 32.
History will remember you kindly. Take a bow, Bafana Bafana. South Africa salutes you.

Let us talk about Kenya. A beautiful country, rich in potential, yet crippled by the very thing that plagues much of Africa, tribalism. In Kenya, politics is not about policy, it is about tribe. Kikuyu, Luo, Kalenjin, Luhya. Elections become ethnic battlegrounds. Neighbours turn into enemies. Violence erupts not over ideology, but over identity. And while Kenyan leaders fly private jets and park billions offshore, ordinary citizens fight for water, land, and survival. This is the reality you refuse to confront.
Yet you lecture South Africa about Africanism. You preach unity while you are divided at home. You demand our love while you cannot love each other. How can you speak of pan-Africanism when your own house is burning? Tribalism is the cancer that has eaten Africa from within and Kenya is no exception. If pan-Africanism has to start in South Africa, we don’t want it……keep it.
Now ask yourself🤔where do you think the services illegal immigrants receive in South Africa come from? At whose expense? Our clinics are flooded. Our schools are overcrowded. Our hospitals are stretched. And not one single African country is donating to South Africa. Not one is helping us carry this burden. We are not benefiting from your presence, we are subsidising your escape.
You come here seeking what your leaders denied you. But you bring your divisions with you. You bring your tribalism. You demand rights while refusing to demand accountability from your own governments. You expect South Africans to be your saviours while you refuse to save yourselves.
We are not your solution. We are not your escape. We are a sovereign nation with our own poor, our own unemployed, our own sick. We cannot fix what your leaders broke. Go home. Fix your house. Stop asking us to carry what you will not carry yourselves. That is not pan-Africanism. That is abdication. And we are done with it.
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.
So now you understand the feeling of being expected to suddenly come up with money for something you never planned or budgeted for. You can't even raise a once off fund to assist with the repatriation of your own citizens, yet South Africans are expected to somehow find the resources year after year to accommodate the costs associated with large numbers of illegal aliens. Then, when taxpayers question the strain on public services and finances, they're branded xenophobic. Financial realities suddenly become important when the bill lands on your doorstep, but when South Africans raise the same concerns, they're told to stop complaining and carry on paying.
Stella, your statement exposes exactly why South Africans are angry. When citizens want to run a business, government demands ownership verification, tax compliance, operational requirements, permits, licences and endless bureaucracy before support is released. But elsewhere the system is far more accommodating: asylum seekers get Section 22 permits that legalise their stay, and school rules also accept asylum/refugee documents and even affidavits where official papers are missing. Then people like Mbeki, Mantashe and Dlamini Zuma have the nerve to talk as if South Africans are the ones who are unskilled or unemployable. No! That’s BS! the truth is that this government has made life harder for its own people, then insults them for not thriving inside the mess it created. South Africans are angry because the system does not work for them. And if you still vote ANC after this, then you are voting for the very people who built the dysfunction.
This is Mazwi Mpumelelo Khubheka, he is missing. He was allegedly kidnapped after Refusing to sell his spaza shop to Pakistani Spaza shops owners.
Nearly a month has passed since the alleged kidnapping of Mazwi, with his family still seeking answers. They believe he was targeted after opening a spaza shop and say investigators have not provided updates.
According to the family, an unknown man had pressured Mazwi to sell his shop to Pakistani nationals, which he refused. They also allege that a security company is protecting foreign shop owners while forcing locals to close.
The family is urging authorities to act urgently and provide clarity, saying the case requires serious attention as concerns grow over what may have happened to him.
