Do you know what absolutely frustrates me about our government??? It’s that they don’t like the truth and when you tell it they look for all kinds of conspiracies to hide behind…
@GovernmentZA Why don’t you tell South Africans that you can’t deal with the issue of illegal immigrants and it’s easier to deal with March and March because you don’t have even enough food or space in holding cells to keep these immigrants and you end up letting them go back into the streets??? Don’t have enough vehicles to arrest them? You don’t have enough immigration officers to process them, don’t have enough courts to process them, don’t have enough vehicles or flights to deport them! You don’t know where your so called refugees are, You don’t have enough ANYTHING and you have allowed NPOs to run this country through foreign funding for so long, so where exactly does the money of this country go to??? And maybe just maybe you and the governments of these countries are actually mutually benefiting from them dumping their ppl here and our borders being wide open because it allows for exploitation, criminals networks and activities to thrive🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
That is the real problem here not MARCH and MARCH‼️‼️
Unpopular Truth:
There is an income level that is not solely determined by working hard.
It depends on the job you do, the country you work in, the organisation you belong to, your position within that organisation, and who decides your salary.
And (this is the part that bites the most) who you know and who knows you.
