There is also a thing or two we can learn from King Hlaudi about the law of attraction, self-belief and the power of confidence. Imagine what we could achieve if we all possessed even an ounce of his confidence. We would be miles ahead!
Congratulations King Hlaudi😊
If you want to know why the people of Emfuleni abandoned the ANC after many years. No conspiracy. The municipality abandoned them. The provincial government and ANC GP turn a blind eye. What would you do? https://t.co/pOOrZmx8rA

We need to stop praising fish for swimming! Service delivery is not a favour…it is what our taxes pay for. We must abandon this mentality of worshipping public officials for simply doing the jobs they are paid to do with taxpayers’ money.
And while we are at it, we need to do away with unnecessary bells and whistles, extravagant ribbon-cutting ceremonies and other publicity stunts that are ultimately funded by the very taxpayers they are meant to serve.
Accountability, efficiency and delivery should be the standard, not something we celebrate as an extraordinary achievement because it’s not.
