16 years ago today, I had my first date with a girl that I had been pursuing for many many months. It was her 21st birthday, and we spent the evening having dinner in Sandton Square. It was also the Champions League Final between Man United and Chelsea. She was a United fan. I
Dear Chidinma
Please don't take any of the nonsense that you may read on twitter to heart. The vast majority of genuine South Africans love you and support you.

Dear Fellow South Africans
I must confess that I was violently opposed to the political switcheroo that was pulled on us by the ANC and DA in concocting the so-called "Government of National Unity." Whilst I still wish that things were different, I will be the first to admit
When Arch Bishop Desmond Tutu coined the term "Rainbow Nation," it wasn't by accident. Here are the facts;
1) Black people aren't going to run out and kill farmers or white people just because Julius Malema sang a song at FNB Stadium.
2) Farm murders are a horrific reality
Did anyone see our so-called Commander in Chief receive the bodies of the soldiers that he sent to their death with no helicopter support in the DRC, or was he too busy electioneering to care??
When I committed to this initiative, I wasn't expecting it to have such huge support. As a proud father of twin girls who'll turn 5 on Christmas Eve, there's nothing more important to me than the wellbeing of the girl-child in our society. Honoured to be part of this initiative!!

When I was growing up, PT was a compulsory lesson in primary school. At some point, PT became PE- don't ask me why, but with that change in name, it became less of a fun interruption to the mundane curriculum to being non-existent by the time I got

Halting British Airways and Emirates flights at JFK doesn't quite rally up the base the same way as a cowboy hat and an AR-15 in hand does, I'm afraid!

This DNC is not an exclusively American phenomenon. The entire world is watching with hope, expectation, and interest into what the outcome of this Convention will bring to the global balance of power. It takes a Gus for each and every Nation to see its future play out tonight.

Grandma's house is usually one of the only fully paid off assets in Black families. It is a home and place of refuge for any family member going through tough times. It's a central place to come together as a family. It will never be the same without her pressence, but it should
Dear Fellow South Africans,
So 8 out of the 9 Provincial Governments have been constituted and are operating.
We have 400 MPs sworn in, a President, Deputy President, Speaker, Deputy Speaker, Chair and Deputy Chair of the NCOP in office.
We have no loadshedding, SAA flights
@GaytonMcK
Fully agree! However, your role as Minister was to protect her until you had all the facts. Responding on social media about "funny vibes" casted unnecessary aspersions over the young lady.
Dear South Africans,
@CyrilRamaphosa
disrespects us so much that him and his ANC cronies complied with the SCA ruling to send Zuma back to jail but miraculously announced a remission of 9 488 prisoners in the process. During the covid lockdowns, he addressed us on national

, went to Ukraine to "mediate" in a war that has killed on average 22 Ukrainians per day. Almost 70 South Africans, including farmers, are murdered every day! How many more of us need to die before he does his fucking job?
President Cyril Ramaphosa on Saturday pleaded with Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine as African countries were being negatively affected by the war.
@mailandguardian
Once upon a time, the Leaders of the EFF and MKP, were leaders in the ANC. This narrative that previous ANC members coming together to form a coalition is a bad thing, reeks of desperation to coerce the country back into minority rule.
Exactly 5 years ago on this day, Christmas Eve, the Lord blessed me with the greatest Christmas present ever! Merry Christmas to all of you, and may you receive what you have been praying for. 🙏🏾
I'm all for freedom of speech on this platform, but MAN, there are some really dumb mother fuckers on X!! This is what happens when we let people with a 30% average pass matric and let them roam the Twitter streets!

@OfficialTeamRSA
This is one of the problems with the GNU. A Minister should have the power to appoint his or her own deputy minister. There's a reason why deputy ministers aren't part of the cabinet in terms of the Constitution.

Hillary laughed on camera when she was told that Gaddafi had been brutally murdered- he had disarmed and was a US ally in the war against terror at the time.

The sad part is that many of these hate-filled folks don't even know who their own fathers are, but they seem to have found their voices with her Nigerian dad.

With all due respect Prof, when Zuma left office, the unemployment rate was 27%. It's now at over 32%!! How kindly will history remember your failed President for plunging more South Africans into poverty?

SCOTUS should never be politicised. Access to the courts is a fundamental right. Those Justices were appointed by Congress. Doubting the legitimacy of the courts is just as bad as undermining the electoral system.

I couldn't agree with you more, TK. But I want to go a step deeper. I was never one for conspiracy theories or digging deeper into what we were being fed by the local media prior to this year's momentous election. I have a rudimentary theory about the articles that News24

Cyril described the ANC as accused number 1 at the State Capture Commission. So, if this article were to be fair, it would also describe the ANC as the "State capture accused ANC"?🤷🏾♂️
@verashni
Even if this all happened under his leadership, he should be heralded as a South African Minister- for all South Africans. Not a DA Minister. When Mangosuthu Buthelezi invaded Lesotho, he did so as a South African Home Affairs Minister and acting President. Not an IFP Minister.
@TimesLIVE
I watched that press conference on Wednesday afternoon, and the man that I saw didn't strike me as someone who was manoeuvring behind Floyd's back. Also, the thought that Julius would grovel at the feet of the man who chaired his expulsion from the ANC doesn't make sense.
@TimesLIVE
We're the most unequal economy on the planet, and these clowns want to remove the only protection to the peanuts that we pay people?! They can't even hide their contempt for the poor anymore. Sies!!

Firstly, it's not R170bn. It's US$9.3Bn. They would never denominate in ZAR. Secondly, it's not free money! It's made up of loans, grants, and guarantees, which means we'd have to pay back most of that over time and probably have to use their companies and technologies to build

Apartheid, an enemy we cant see or touch, is an easy scapegoat to blame the socioeconomic ills of our country after 30yrs of ANC misrule. Its like the war on poverty, the war on crime, the war on inequality,the war on corruption! Its time for the war on dumb Presidents & parties!

This is such hogwash and a testament to how clinical the Apartheid Regime's brainwashing programme of getting South Africans to hate fellow African brothers and sisters was.

The team that scores more points than the other team in any professional sport deserves to win. Those are the rules. Even in synchronized swimming, dressage, and figure skating; the most elegant performances count for nothing if your opponents score more points than you.
@ChrisExcel102
Oh no, they are brave enough. They just do it in a way that's not so obvious. Scrapping the minimum wage, getting rid of BEE and employment equity, is their way of saying 🖕🏻to Black South Africans.

I once gave my credit card and pin to a waiter at Andiccios to go and buy me cigarettes at the filling station down the road. The people that I was with were shocked. He came back with the cigarettes and I sent him a R1000 ewallet!

How difficult is it for him to retract those comments? Instead, the entire DA establishment has come out to double down on his atrocious comments! The DA doesn't pay his MP salary, it's the people of South Africa who are 81.4% BLACK!!
