Psychology calls it authority bias: even if you disagree with Cyril Ramaphosa politically or criticise his leadership every day, your brain still recognises him as thee President of South Africa—the country’s highest constitutional office. His title alone carries a charming psychological weight most of us cannot resist😭
It is also known as the aura of status: social hierarchies often dictate how our brains react when we meet a powerful or famous person in real life😬
Africa's first moon mission is in the works in South Africa, flying with China in 2029.
The mission aims to send South African-designed spheres to the lunar surface, which will be the world’s first radio telescope on the moon to study low-frequency signals.
Stellenbosch University Engineers and Students have built the electronics for the mission.
It was an absolute pleasure to meet television and radio icon, Ashifa Shabba, at TUT FM’s 32nd birthday gala dinner. Like many South Africans, I grew up following the artist’s journey across multiple mediums of entertainment ❤️🇿🇦.
You can’t convince me life is just a series of coincidences. What do you mean Lionel Messi was randomly paired with a five-month-old baby after the baby’s family won a UNICEF raffle for a charity photoshoot while Messi played for Barcelona… and that baby grew up to be Lamine Yamal?
Lamine would go on to become one of the brightest young stars in soccer, wear the same No. 19 Messi wore for the same team when that photo was taken, and now, nearly two decades later, could face Messi in a World Cup Final???????
Heartbreaking news. South Africa international and Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Jayden Adams has sadly passed away at the age of 2,5, @SundayWorldZA confirm. 💔🇿🇦
Adams recently made his World Cup debut with South Africa and played a key role in Mamelodi Sundowns’ successful CAF Champions League campaign.
Two weeks ago, Adams lost his grandmother Marianna Adams but demonstrated remarkable professionalism by featuring for Bafana Bafana in their World Cup match against Czechia.
Our condolences and thoughts go out to his family, friends, teammates, and everyone at Mamelodi Sundowns.
Rest in peace, Jayden. 🕊️
@SimplyEXT Nope, it's the state's failure to arrest, trial, convict & remove criminals from society until rehabilitated. Imagine if a failing state would get a license to kill.
