Oh! Oh! Oh!
@News24, please sit down before you hurt yourself with that Rwanda comparison.
One of your journalists gets doxxed by a March and March supporter after asking about government contracts. The phone starts ringing with threats like “I’ll hunt you” and “I hope you die.” Suddenly the entire newsroom turns into a UN genocide-prevention seminar. Out comes the carefully worded sermon; the Rwandan genocide didn’t just happen overnight; politicians and commentators used inflammatory language and hate speech against Tutsis first.
Cool. Noted. Where the hell was this energy when Julius Malema and the EFF have been packing stadiums for years yelling “Kill the Boer, Kill the farmer” like it’s the national anthem? When whole crowds chant “one settler, one bullet” and courts keep finding creative ways to call it “struggle history” or “not literal?” When White farmers and their families keep getting hit in attacks that are often far more brutal than a normal robbery; torture, prolonged suffering, the works, and the same outlets treat the connection as a conspiracy theory invented by President Trump and Elon Musk?
Apparently words only become dangerous when they threaten a News24 journalist. When the same kind of dehumanizing language is aimed at White South Africans and Boers, it’s just “context,” “metaphor,” or “we mustn’t overreact.” The Rwanda lecture only comes out of the drawer when it fits the narrative.
It’s like watching someone who spent a decade ignoring the smoke alarm finally notice the fire when it reaches their own kitchen. Then they hold a press conference about how smoke is bad for your lungs.
The selective application of the “words can lead to violence” principle is so blatant it would be funny if the body count on farms wasn’t real.
ATTACK THE MESSAGE? OR DISCREDIT THE MESSENGER?
I promised myself I would never dignify anything published by @News24 with a formal response. But its hit piece on Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma demands one.
Let me be clear: this is not an endorsement of Jacinta or the March and March movement per se. It is a defence of her right, as much as mine and that of every other South African, to hold this government to account on issues about which we feel passionately.
What the editors at News24, huddled around their editorial cauldron, concocting the latest batch of ideological gruel to serve their readers, appear to have missed is one rather inconvenient fact: Jacinta's message resonates with millions of South Africans. And not one of them seems remotely interested in asking the most obvious question of all: Why?
Instead, we are served a steaming bowl of hyperbole, histrionics and emotionally charged sound bites. Anything, it seems, to avoid confronting the substance of the discontent.
So let us strip away the theatrics and get to the heart of the matter.
This government has, from the outset, abdicated its responsibility to serve the best interests of the South African people. And the government we have today - the entire political establishment, not merely one party or faction - has become a malignant mass, a festering cancer on the body politic.
The real story isn't that Jacinta is saying things that make News24 uncomfortable. It's that millions of South Africans are listening - because, after decades of broken promises, corruption, incompetence and political indifference, they have every reason to be angry.
And perhaps that is the question News24 should be asking itself: not why Jacinta is speaking, but why so many South Africans feel she is worth listening to.
Doxxing Jacinta, threatening her, and attempting to portray her as dangerous, as though she herself represents the problem in South Africa, is an exercise in creative deflection.
It is far easier to vilify the messenger than confront the message. Far easier to intimidate a citizen than answer the questions she is asking. And far easier to manufacture a public enemy than acknowledge the failures of those who actually hold power.
When the spotlight falls on the messenger rather than the message, ask yourself what, exactly, they are trying to distract you from.
Lmfao what?!!😭😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Pakistanis and Somalians sleeping with young underaged poor girls in townships are gay according to Naledi, this girls is truly the creation of the jews hey😂😂😂😂
No, @AdriaanBasson. You and your newspaper are a far greater threat to this nation than the people you claim to hold to account.
Perhaps we should be asking Koos Bekker and Ton Vosloo why they continue to bankroll a publication whose ethical standards are lower than a drunk sewer rat’s.
NEWS24’S SMEAR CAMPAIGN AGAINST JACINTA NGOBESE-ZUMA MUST BE CALLED OUT!
News24 just invoked the Rwandan genocide to destroy Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma. They called her a "threat to democracy."
What News24 did this week isn't journalism. It's a calculated assassination. They published an editorial comparing political activist to the architects of the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Why? Because she exposed their journalist's phone number after they tried to drop a last-minute exposé on her...; since when did that become a "threat to democracy"?
They want you to believe Jacinta is above the law. But let's talk about the lawbreakers running the newsroom. Adriaan Basson..;the man leading this crusade..;has been SANCTIONED by the Press Council for publishing fake news. He had to apologize for lying about Renaldo Gouws. This is the guy preaching to us about democracy? Give me a break.
Let's talk about Pieter du Toit. Accused of being a DA cheerleader using his platform to "shake his pom-poms" for political agendas. He’s had to apologize to AfriForum multiple times for biased, poor judgment. This is the "trusted news" team?
And Ferial Haffajee? Amplifying the hit job. The same journalist who sparked national outrage with the "spear" painting, and who has been accused of gatekeeping black liberation struggles. The media mafia protecting their own at all costs.
The R12 million contract allegations against Jacinta? NEVER PROVEN. She challenged them to prove it. Instead of publishing receipts, News24 ran to the courts and opened criminal charges.
Are death threats against journalists acceptable? Absolutely NOT. But let’s not pretend News24 is innocent. They have spent years weaponizing their platform, spreading misinformation, and destroying political opponents. The pot is calling the kettle black.
They scream about democracy while using genocide rhetoric to take down a woman challenging the status quo. The hypocrisy is suffocating. They are terrified of her movement, and they are using every dirty trick in the book to stop her.
The truth is ugly. The media isn't your friend. They are a political weapon. Don't let them rewrite the narrative.
They called her a threat. But look at their own trail of apologies, fake news, and bias. The real threat to democracy isn't Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma. It's the media mafia who think they are above the law. RT if you are tired of their propaganda.

@GovernmentZA, how the hell did we get here?😭😭😭😭
[CASE DOCKET OPENED AND UNDER INVESTIGATION]
The Gauteng Provincial Investigation Unit is investigating a case of intimidation. The suspect has been identified as a tenderpreneur, Lawrence Chamurwa Mudzingayima, on social media.
A case was opened in Randburg SAPS. This incident took place at Vlamo Restaurant, Sandton Gate, Glenadrienne, on Thursday, 18 September 2026 at approximately 20:15.
The complainant was attending a private birthday dinner when “Lawrence Chamurwa Mudzingayima” approached her and her companions, offered to take photographs (which was declined), and later demanded her telephone number. When asked to leave them alone, the man became aggressive and verbally abusive. He uttered threats to shoot and murder the complainant, including a threat to put a bullet in her, and claimed he was a wealthy man who owned the restaurant and would walk free.
Waiters intervened and removed the man from the powder-room area. A companion of the suspect later approached the complainant in the dining room, apologised, and urged her not to escalate the matter, stating that the suspect was “well-connected.”
The restaurant owner attended after being shown a video of the incident, spoke to the complainant, and had the suspect removed from the premises.
No firearm was seen and no physical injuries were reported.
Police investigations are underway and the suspect will be brought to justice in due course.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but is it only Hiphop that has this much commentary on everything the artists do? Does the Country Music community nit pick everything their artists do? Or Jazz? Rock?
FOREIGN NATIONALS FUNDED WITHOUT APPROVAL
The investigation showed that seven students who received bursaries from the OTP were foreign nationals, with six of them funded on a merit basis as top achievers. However, the SIU found no approval to deviate from the bursary policy, which specifies that bursaries are for South African citizens residing in the Free State. This resulted in an expenditure of R576 734.48.
Listen to this video and you will understand what we have been saying all along‼️‼️‼️ South Africa is being compromised so people can have booming businesses in Africa
Dr. Akwasi Opong-Fosu of the Ghana Investment Promotion Centre says the forced migration of foreign nationals into SA is perpetuated by leadership failures and governance dysfunction in other African countries. He adds that Africans in their countries must hold their governments accountable to deliver to avoid forced migration.
