So @Dischem distributed a letter saying if you're white you can't be promoted and that white appointments should be stopped. Black & white people are spoken of as tokens to money. Only after leaked did they retract it. The BEE legacy! CEO Ivan Saltzman, you should be ashamed.

The same Ramaphosa administration that promised to fix Eskom presides over the worse blackouts ever - and now wants to punish citizens for going solar. Madness. 🇿🇦

We have a President who thinks having his photo taken on a tour of a power plant is ‘fixing Eskom’. 🇿🇦

This apparently happened in Klerksdorp CBD in North West. Very brave man fighting back and defending himself and I assume his family in the car.

ANC Government Standard Operating Procedure:
1) Notice crisis.
2) Go to scene for photo op.
3) Promise "task team", "special team", "special commission" or any other meaningless term.
4) Do fuck all.
5) Repeat.

Shocking story. How much looting can one country endure? And how low can you go if you steal money meant to help people put food on the table after losing a job. Gary Shayne, Greg von Holdt, Johan Botha, Crispian Dillon - you deserve to be jailed for life.

Sir, ‘we’ did not loot the nation & steal Covid funds from the hungry - your government did. ‘We’ did not wreck SOE’s with neglect & incompetence. ‘We’ are not paid Millions to deliver failure. @CyrilRamaphosa 🇿🇦
Let us evoke Madiba’s ‘new patriotism’, where South Africans are determined to work together and make our country a winning nation. We cannot leave it to others to realise the South Africa of our dreams. The future of our country is indeed in our hands.

It really seems like ANC leaders prefer attending funerals of victims of violent crime in South Africa instead of just implementing simple solutions.

Do you know where the danger is @CyrilRamaphosa?
The danger is in your whole cabinet and they are destroying the country.
Your cabinet is a highlight reel of arrogance,incompetence and corruption.

While it may have been hard for him to hear these words, these remarks did not warrant the behavior from the minister of police.
Citizens have a right to raise their concerns robustly. This was robust but respectful engagement.

South Africa is now adrift, a leaderless nation, a country lurching from one crisis to another without any direction, control or plan. An absent President leading an expired administration. 🇿🇦
