🇿🇦 Patrice Motsepe and why you have blackouts or loadshedding

Motsepe is Ramaphosa’s brother in law

In 2009 Patrice Motsepe said electricity was too cheap and that was preventing independent power producers from entering the South African market.

16years later electricity has gone up by over 600% and Mr Motsepe owns over 50% of the independent power stations

@RetroCoast Yes

A human being was not placed upon the Earth merely to be born, suffer, and disappear. Life is a journey with a beginning, a season of growth, a season of wisdom, and eventually a return. When the soul has reached the end of its earthly journey, it should depart peacefully, like a person entering a deep sleep. The greatest tragedy is not that death exists, but that human beings have created so many ways for one another to leave this world before their journey is complete.🍃🫶🏽

@eNCA The ANC has had too many chances. It is utterly corrupt and completely incompetent. It can no longer be trusted. As was the case of the NP in the 1990’s, the positive future of SA is now dependent on the fall of the ANC and its exclusion from Government.

@Mutshedzi @magicdan60 Pity, they will be the ones employing you arsehole.

We viewed this 2022 Golf GTi with 82542km.

This is a Lemon 🍋 going for 399k

This vehicle had major front impact with terrible repairs, all the electronic faults you can think of are found on this vehicle, the sunroof, wipers, parking brake do not work, the windshield needs to be replaced, it’s missing all the tools( triangle, wheel spanner…) it doesn’t have a sparewheel, all the front panels on this vehicle were repaired, you can even see the tyres from the engine bay because the fender liners were not installed on the vehicle, the front bumper slides are no where to be found so the front bumper is hanging on by grace.

We were skeptical and concerned about the test drive and guess what happened? we got stopped by JMPD and they had colourful things to say about the licence disc, for its condition how it looks it sure does drive well and the engine and brake perfomance is good.

Now while we understand that this dealership barely does any reckon, they also sell as is and because of that their prices are often low and attractive. Some do get caught because they do not practice their due diligence.

Many may say but nothing wrong if the price is low. Well even if the price is low full disclosure should be a non negotiable. Even more so when advertised on car listing platforms !!! Check our findings vs the advert of the car. NOTHING ABOUT THE DEFECTS.

Ig the defects were disclosed our client wouldn’t have bothered booking us. Now he threw away his money. It’s really unfair what these unscrupulous dealerships are doing.

Should you need an Inspection done on your behalf anywhere in South Africa kindly book you via our website:
