Diabetes is now the leading cause of death in South Africa, overtaking HIV and TB, with experts warning that poor diets, limited screening and an unhealthy food environment are fuelling a crisis that could be prevented. https://t.co/NwnccVFLf6

@jackson_rem @Solphendukaa Look at what Museveni is doing to the returnees. 😁

Getting roasted by your own government is crazy work. Uganda officials really cooked the Ugandans who were repatriated from South Africa.😂

Greetings guys, if you are going out to buy a car, kindly add in writing on your contract, if vehicle is defective within 6 months of purchase you will bring it back for a full refund.

Let the seller sign and acknowledge it. If they refuse go shop elsewhere, where they are willing to take that responsibility.

You welcome to add extra notes like: You confirm the mileage is accurate, you confirm the service history etc.

Have a blessed day all 🙏🏾

I had a meeting with the school's head because my brain can't fathom why everything is an extra.. I asked what does the actual school fees cover and there was silence and tension in the room.

Every other month it's Judo, Robotics, trip to the Zoo, Learning Enrichment and all other words that they put together to form something to bill you.

KNOW YOUR HISTORY 🇿🇦

Africa has 54 sovereign states, but only 3 countries hosted South Africans for an agreed period of time and it was all based on preconditions and restrictions:

- Angola 🇦🇴
- Tanzania 🇹🇿
- Zambia 🇿🇲
Above were the countries that hosted South Africans with a clear understanding that, after sometime, they will go back to South Africa.

Mozambique 🇲🇿, Lesotho 🇱🇸, Botswana 🇧🇼, Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 and Swaziland 🇸🇿 were transit countries.

Ethiopia 🇪🇹, Egypt 🇪🇬 and Algeria 🇩🇿offered training camps for a selective period and soon after, South Africans had to return to the 3 host countries.

Very few countries were in solidarity support, but never in financial support.

Marriage has six stages,

But most couples give up at stage three.

Stage 1: The Honeymoon Stage....

Does anyone remember Jerah? I think he was a guitarist and was involved in some incredible house music collabs... Notably that 6850 Maluleke street by DJ Mbuso.

Thailand is really affordable if you book it yourself, hotels are super cheap for 5 stars, flights before everything were about R10k for a return to Bangkok then you take a domestic flight for about R800 return from Bangkok & Phuket, activities were R4k

Mind you this is for a 10 day trip in the country then 2 days in the sky (to and from travelling & a long layover)

Book it yourself, agoda is your friend for domestic flights & hotels, get your guide is your friend for activities & buy flights directly from the airline

I was supposed to go on a 12 day trip next month & spent R16k for all those things excluding spending 😭🤣bought the tickets 3 months before the trip

[Walter 🇳🇬 🇵🇭 🇨🇦 @gamerwalt]

Let me be honest with you.

Before marriage, I could have lived entirely for myself.

Wake up when I wanted.
Travel when I wanted.
Spend on what I wanted.
Answer to nobody.
Build nothing new.
Just enjoy myself and call it freedom.

But that is the trap.

Because a man left only to himself can become very comfortable and very empty.

Marriage gave me something comfort never could... responsibility with meaning.

My wife gave my life weight.
My children gave my work faces.
My decisions stopped being about appetite and started being about legacy.

And deeper than that, marriage changed how I understood love itself.

Jesus did not give Himself for the Church because He was forced to.
He gave Himself willingly.
That is what covenant love looks like.
Sacrifice.
Responsibility.
Covering.
Staying power.
That changed me.

Marriage is not just a contract to me.
It is a calling to die to selfishness.
To lead with sacrifice.
To build with love.
To become the kind of man whose presence brings peace, not confusion.

That is the benefit of marriage for a man.
Not just companionship.
Not just sex.
Not just children.

It gives him a reason to become more disciplined, more selfless, more focused, more intentional.

Left to myself, I already know the kind of man I could have remained... comfortable, amused, and going nowhere that truly mattered.

Marriage did not cage me.
It gave me a picture of Christ.

And it called me higher.

Reality TV isn't a blueprint for Isithembu. It’s a mistake to think one family’s televised life represents an entire cultural practice esp. if it isn't part of your own immediate heritage. To truly understand the dynamics, we should listen to the voices of those actually in the arrangement or people who grew up within it.

You have to understand certain culture and traditions first. mostly what u see on TV isn't handled correctly, if these shows portrayed every traditional aspect accurately, they’d be boring obviously for the uninformed viewers.

TV is more about entertainment than education, they often trade authenticity for drama.

The current conversations about the future of broadcasting and streaming in South Africa are interesting.

But one thing that often gets misunderstood is how the public broadcasting ecosystem actually works and how it is funded.
