Quote of the year so far - Gayton McKenzie to Julius Malema.....“If simple wearing a beret makes you a revolutionary then my mom and her friends have been revolutionaries for far longer than you” 😂
Meet Morgan Mohlala, the founder of Mamatho Mining & Projects from Burgersfort, Limpopo.
He started his entrepreneurial journey as a taxi owner before venturing into the mining sector, where he secured contracts that helped grow his trucking business into a fleet of more than 100 trucks transporting chrome and other commodities across the region.
Today, his company has created employment for over 100 people. Beyond business, he gives back through the Morgan Mohlala Foundation, supporting underprivileged communities and funding young entrepreneurs to pursue their dreams.
Regardless, the conclusion of that enquiry founding no link between Zuma and ATM. He is deeply connected to JZ and MKP. His energy for Phalaphala comes from that party.
You have to be absolutely out of your mind—or on a steady, unfiltered diet of the cheapest contraband available—to look at Naledi Chirwa and see Winnie Mandela material. The sheer delusion required to make that comparison is a public health hazard.
Winnie Mandela was a titan who stared down an apartheid regime, endured banishment, and survived solitary confinement. Chirwa is a Twitter-era grandstander who got famous for screaming in parliament and throwing tantrums on social media, and for promoting prostitution.
Comparing the two isn't just a bad take; it’s a hallucination. Seek help, clean out your system, and stop disrespecting history.
They Found Shacks Built Inside The Building In Johannesburg. Foreigners Will Be The End Of Us
Authorities conducting an inspection of a building uncovered numerous makeshift structures constructed from corrugated iron sheets inside the property.
Yhoo. I am busy reading Ndlozi's PhD and I must admit I am struggling to understand how this opening chapter survived rigorous academic scrutiny. The chapter is structured almost entirely around Ndlozi's personal encounter with his estranged father. For lengthy stretches it reads less like a doctoral thesis and more like a memoir of childhood abandonment.
Yes, auto ethnography is a legitimate research methodology. The issue is not the use of personal experience. The issue is what is done with it. Personal narrative must illuminate the research problem not substitute for its analysis. A researcher cannot simply recount a deeply personal experience and then declare it theoretically significant. The analytical bridge must be built not assumed.
What I find troubling is that the connection between Ndlozi's one experience of father absence and the broader claim of colonial "permanent juniority" is repeatedly asserted but insufficiently demonstrated. The reader is expected to accept an enormous conceptual leap that should have been painstakingly justified through evidence, argumentation and engagement with competing explanations.
I am equally concerned about the methodology. Humanities scholars may disagree with me and I am open to correction but from the perspective of someone trained in scientific research, this approach would struggle to pass muster even in many undergraduate research projects. Reflexivity requires a researcher to acknowledge their positionality and potential biases. It does not require the researcher to become the dominant subject of the thesis itself.
A strict examiner might reasonably ask “Is this a PhD about black youth politics in the Vaal or is it a PhD about Mbuyiseni Ndlozi's relationship with his father?” When that question can be asked with a straight face after reading the opening chapter, there is a serious issue of focus.
What makes the situation even more disappointing is that Ndlozi appears not to have produced peer reviewed journal articles arising from this work. That matters. The value of a PhD is not merely that it is completed and archived. Its value lies in its contribution to the broader body of knowledge through scholarly circulation, criticism, replication, engagement and debate.
A thesis that remains largely confined to an institutional repository is a contribution that never fully enters the marketplace of ideas. Concepts remain underdeveloped, arguments remain insufficiently challenged and theoretical claims remain untested by the discipline of peer review. For a project making such ambitious claims, that is a significant missed opportunity.
The tragedy is not that the work exists. The tragedy is that it seems never to have been pushed through the crucible of open scholarly contestation where strong ideas are refined, weak ideas are exposed and genuine contributions are forged. If there was a significant theoretical contribution here, academia may never fully benefit from it. That is a loss not only for the field, but for Ndlozi's own scholarly legacy.

The Zondo Commission found that Jacob Zuma and Guptas captured this country during Zuma's tenure.
And the State still pays him and gives him his perks.
But that's not important to opposition parties ATM and Vuyo Zungula.
What is important to them is that President Ramaphosa sold Buffaloes and received $580k . .. that what is important to them.
Still there will be a certain group that victimize her for doing her job
We've seen Thuli Madonsela being victimized for recommending that the country should have a State Capture Commission
We've seen Thuli Madonsela being victimized for telling Zuma to pay back taxpayers money for Nkandla
And she was hated
Thandi Phiri (a Malawian national)
is one of the criminals that brought over a 900 million Rand worth of drugs from Malawi to South Africa.
Could this be the reason why @Chrispin_JPhiri has been hell-bent in defending these criminals?
Was there a lack of oversight in the appointment of the Hawks KZN acting head?
Maj-Gen Leseja Senona's suspension led to one of his subordinates - Brigadier Zenobia Mulligan - taking over.
She joined the provincial office about three years ago to head Corporate Support Services.
Among other things, the senior officer was responsible for financial management and supply chain management.
But she seemingly can't manage her own household finances, piling on debt of several hundred thousand rands.
Mulligan has defaulted on loan repayments and has combined arrears of over R650 000 with her husband.
The DPCI has ignored all requests for comment on what vetting processes were followed during her appointment.
