The number of people killed in South Africa in 2018 is more than the recorded number of killings in Syria the same year. So, you’d be safer in a country at war compared to SA.

This late taxi driver, Jabu Baloyi, tried to stop a drug seller from selling drugs to kids and got shot. None of politicians visited his house, & no crowd funding was initiated by anyone. His widow is facing the uncertain future.

Retweet to honour this unsung hero - Jabu Baloyi

Mugabe died in Gleneagles Hospital in Singapore. He had an executive suite there for 150 days.

The cost per night is R80 500 so over 150 days this Pan African cost Zimbabweans R12 million rands.

Think about that. You ruin your states health care but spend R12 mill on yours.

5 days to go before @MbalulaFikile reports on the eToll impasse solution to Pres. Ramaphosa. Still no contact made with @OUTASA for our input. Seems as though Govt believes a solution without civil society’s input is possible? Here’s why not: https://t.co/pmfdNLowku
