@LeratoPillayZA@shabbaswezz Do you think millions waiting on the ground for the 30th can just switch momentum on & off to play silly mind games with the government? @JacintaNgobese this is a bad idea.
One Malawian illegal immigrant who was wanted for child rape has been found in Durban, during the processing of immigrants before deportation. The South African family whom their child was raped by the illegal immigrant will finally get justice
@eNCA At this rate this is brazen thieving. R2 trillion when the economy is barely growing, unemployment rate at the stratosphere, cities looking like post apocalyptic scenes.
Being South African on Twitter is a fulltime job. The moment you open your eyes, you're already on national duty, defending the country against allegations, stereotypes, & random attacks from people who've never been here. Kubi! ๐ฟ๐ฆ๐
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.
@MusaaRonalds@MrJamesKe We don't need to be explaining ourselves any longer to this people. They're hellbent on being ignorant. They've given up themselves, their biggest desires is exiting their countries & force themselves into the next better off country. It's pointless even debating them.
