South Africa didn't underperform. All those countries who are ahead of us have invested a lot in sports over decades. Infrastructure that USA universities are even better than epl teams Infrastructure. Many kids in SA don't have opportunities to participate in sports like hockey
To be honest with ourselves as country, South Africa really really underperformed in the olympics. What a shame. Completely underwhelming!
2 x medals (๐ฅ & ๐ฅ)won by 1 person
1 ๐ฅ medal by rugby seven
1 ๐ฅ by cyclist
Chinese students are learning things like artificial intelligence, robotics, mathematics etc, but our students are busy silly things. No wonder China is so far ahead of most countries
Tzaneen produces 40% of South Africa's avocados, 40% of South Africa's mangoes, 90% of South Africa's tomatoes and 20% of South Africa's bananas ๐. Tzaneen is a special South African town indeed ๐ฟ๐ฆ. Wow
This woman was at a center of 2021 July unrests. She encouraged everything. People died, businesses were lost, economy suffered etc. She should be in prison and nowhere near our Parliament let alone being called "Honorable Member" ๐คฌ. Sies
Black people don't mind destroying their own communities & killing each other to "send a message". People even stone innocent people's cars. Their own neighbors cars actually. The black race is cursed ๐คฌ๐๐ญ. I find the whole thing sad & embarrassing in equal measure.
#TaxiStrike
I will support Nhlanhla Lux and his friends. I support anyone who is against Julius Malema and EFF. It doesn't matter to me what the facts are actually. People who hate EFF should know that i hate the party more than them & shouldn't even try to compete with me.
#OperationDudula
People might not want to accept this, but people who sell food, clothes etc on the pavement in Johannesburg CBD are part of the problem. The CBD is very dirty partly because of them, to be honest
I will NOT vote for ANC. I will NOT consider ANC. I will encourage everyone i know and everyone on Twitter to NOT vote for ANC in 2024. They can win, but i won't help them achieve that success. That is NOT a secret! โค ๐ฟ๐ฆ
Wow,
@solidariteit
technical college is nearly complete. Cosatu is way bigger union, but can't build stuff like this ๐๐ญ. All they do is make empty threats and quote dead Communists
Allowing people like Malema to participate in
#JSCinterviews
is one of South Africa's darkest hours ๐ญ. I really don't care what anybody says.

My name is Lethabo Maesela. I am a new proud supporter of

I am also in Freedom Under Law, Helen Suzman Foundation, CASAC, and

camps! โค๐ฟ๐ฆ
Malusi Gigaba, Faith Muthambi and Mosebenzi Zwane have a responsibility of interviewing ANC mayoral candidates ๐๐๐. Never ending comedy at Luthuli House
Some lady send R400 into my Capitec account last night by mistake (entered wrong cell number). I thought it was from my aunt who promised me R500 in January ๐๐. I was surprised to get a call this morning from a stranger. I send it back to her & she couldn't believe it ๐. Damn!
The way Julius Malema speaks at these press conferences makes it very hard to believe that other leaders can hold him accountable. It looks like he is EFF and EFF is him. Others are just supporting actors and actresses ๐ญ๐.
#EFFPresser
Being an ANC supporter, wanting Ramaphosa gone & suggesting people like Mkhize, Magashule etc as replacements is ridiculous, to be honest ๐.
You are entitled to critize & want the President out, but at least give the South African population hope while doing that. Damn!
#ANCKZN
Terry Pheto gave up the fight against SIU and offered information in exchange for mercy according to City Press. Her legal team approached SIU. From being dismayed to becoming a snitch. Wow, what a story ๐
I am disappointed in Chidimma Adetshina. Everyone who said "she doesn't care about SA because she is Nigerian" is vindicated and people who supported her daily like me are left with an egg on our faces ๐ค
Chidimma Adetshina, the pageant hopeful who was forced to withdraw from Miss South Africa due to a nationality row, has accepted an invitation to participate in Miss Universe Nigeria.
People can hate President Ramaphosa all they want, but whenever he travels he represents South Africa. What is happening in Poland is an attack on our country ๐ณ. Just unfortunate
๐ Julius Malema says they will expropriate all banks and insurance companies without compensation if eff takes over. Imagine starting a bank like
@tymebankza
and losing it without getting a cent ๐ญ. These people love fantasies and should be nowhere near power.
#EFFvsAfriforum
It will be painful, but South Africa should accept AGOA exclusion. We'll survive like we have been surviving all these years. We don't have a country if we can't even have an opinion about foreign policy. Soon they will say don't meet Chinese leaders ๐คฃ. They are crossing a line!
I always laugh when people blame Nelson Mandela for our problems ๐คฃ. To be called a "sellout" by 20 year olds is just beyond ridiculous. The man and his colleagues did their part under very tough conditions in the early 90s. It is actually up to all of us to make SA better.
What Busisiwe Mkhwebane said about Justice Ponnan and legal people who are Indian is very racist. The reason people are not criticizing her is because she is black. No Indian or white person can say the same thing about black people and get away with it. Double standard is real!
Lindiwe Sisulu fans still refuse to tell us which part of our Constitution stopped her from spending taxpayers money wisely and giving people good water and sanitation ๐ซ.
Which part of the Constitution prevents ANC from providing good primary & secondary education in SA, mense?
It is ridiculous to have a Mayor of the City of Johannesburg whose party advocates for Sharia Law in a country like South Africa ๐๐ซ. I want Thapelo Amad gone!
ANC shouldn't be blamed.
South Africans should be blamed!
Yesterday's unemployment statistics were horrible as usual. A political party that "governs" a country with 32% unemployment rate SHOULDN'T be elected. It is continuously rising ๐ญ
No serious electorate would elect ANC!
EFF supporters are naive and dumb. Julius Malema wears shoes that cost R30k and they think he buys all these things with Parliament salary ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐
Julius Malema made it clear at the press conference that EFF will deduct a percentage of new councilors 3 months pay to pay for their elections debts, but he is buying a new R1.8m Mercedes for Buyelekhanya Danlingyebo who gets millions in grants from Govt. Shocking decision ๐โโ๏ธ๐.
Reality is, none of this is about whether Mpho Phalatse is a good Mayor or not. It is just about a chance for politicians to get their chances to eat, positions and citizens of the City of Johannesburg are far from their minds, sadly ๐ฅ. True story!
#HandsOffJoburg
There are grown men and women who genuinely believe that these clowns are "revolutionaries" ๐ฌ.
South Africa's future is really bleak with this kind of electorate!
Floyd Shivambu is busy following senile Jacob Zuma around and listening to his nonsense. You people lied to us. That guy is not smart at all. He's a clown ๐คก ๐คฃ
Taxi drivers treat black people like trash in every corner of this country. They don't respect anything on the roads. I understand that people want to go to work & home but we shouldn't act like we are dealing with sensible Japanese train drivers here. They are thugs!
#TaxiStrike
I have never seen Mpofu and Julius Malema's children taking part in strikes. Have you? I am sure their private schools won't be disturbed as well on monday. Only useful idiots are being used by politicians in SA and around the world. Sad part is, peasants never wake up ๐ฌ. Shame!
I will NEVER vote for EFF regardless of how bad other political parties are. It will never happen. I really can't explain how much i dislike EFF leaders ๐.
South Africans are so addicted to making everything about race. Some people wouldn't even listen to John Steenhuisen even if he makes sense because he is white. I get the fact that our past is horrible, but we have to stop behaving like this all the time.
#JohnSpeaksForMe
People who call Andre de Ruyter racist for what he said are funny and embarrassing in equal measure๐คฃ๐ญ. Andre is correct. ANC people are ideologues, incompetent & corrupt. Just look at how they run rural municipalities like Enoch Mgijima, for example. Just look around you ๐คทโโ๏ธ! ๐ฟ๐ฆ
I still can't forget Norma Gigaba telling eNCA journalist that "Malusi Gigaba knows nothing about finance". She said she told him "to just go to treasury and he will learn" ๐๐ญ. "I said, just go, Malusi. Just go to treasury. You will be fine".
#StateCaptureInquiry
Zimbabweans love to lecture South Africans about what is wrong in our country as if Zimbabwe is a prosperous country and they didn't dump their own country for SA ๐ซ
I think Zuma's Presidency was a historical mistake, but he was decisive when it came to the cabinet. He would have fired Lindiwe Sisulu last week ๐. President Ramaphosa is trying to unite with people who are not interested and continue to undermine him. He is going to regret it!
Floyd Shivambu is a fool. He left a top position in EFF to be National Organizer of MK Party ๐คฆโโ๏ธ. You guys misled us. Floyd is not intelligent at all. Once again black people fell for his good English and tough talk.
Wow, you people are doing exactly what we predicted ๐. The ruler complained about lack of supportive tweets yesterday and today we are bombarded with
#asijiki
nonsense ๐คญ
Action SA has to stop being lovey-dovey with EFF if they want my vote.
@HermanMashaba
is obviously an EFF puppet and this is a serious concern for people who love South Africa like me. EFF is toxic, dangerous and can't be rehabilitated under Julius Malema. This is not negotiable!
ANC can't even manage small town municipalities, but people believe they can handle nationalization of all SA land ๐. You people are addicted to pain!
#LandExpropriation
ANC got 34% in Gauteng Province and reserved 7 MEC positions, Speaker and Premier for themselves, but nobody is talking about "arrogance". Such words are only reserved for DA, i guess ๐คทโโ๏ธ
These are laws City of Cape Town is trying to enforce and black people are complaining about "racism" on Twitter ๐. My people don't deserve nice things.
#TaxiStrike
I went Germiston CBD today. Damn, these towns are finished. Malls & shopping centers have destroyed them. Most businesses are gone. They are left to criminals & people who run small businesses like cellphone repairs, streets vendors etc. Beyond repair just like Johannesburg CBD!
