@HSHRAW White south africans vastly dont visit townships and rural areas now they want to argue about How life is in rurals We have connection in rurals Not all but we do.

We are from rural areas and we have connectivity. Which people are you talking about?

@KelRo736 @EchoAuris People really seem to not understand we have cheaper and better options for internet than starlink. We could even use telkom to connect rural areas or some other provider. Starlink is expensive and not as fast as fibre. The speeds advertised are possible but not yet provided

@EchoAuris And how exactly do you expect "the poor" to afford Starlink? We have existing options that are much cheaper than laying out R12k upfront. Most of us can't afford that.

SA has 80% internet penetration. We are responsible for 75% of the continent's internet traffic. We have three bases in Antarctica with internet connectivity. Other African countries use SA subsidiaries for mobile internet. We didn't ask for Starlink. Elon keeps begging.

@BassieLastrassi Some supporters if this absurdity say : well its the same in London and Europe people need roommates to share rent." That is not progressing. Its following mistakes not progress.

@BassieLastrassi I will never forgive the cape town mayor.

I just landed and no ways guys, we need to fight for Cape Town.

@BassieLastrassi What is the point of economic growth if the citizens dont benefit. We are importing poor Europeans and American and they become overnight rich and we them like millionaires instead of creating south african rich people We are being pushed out of CPT. Digital nomads is no tour

@NtsikeleloNM @BassieLastrassi This is why I will never vote for the new DA leader or DA in general. He did this.

@okay_and_then @eNCA I can't forgive him for giving cape town away tk digital nomads and Airbnb pushing locals out

@eNCA Him and his party are not putting South Africans first

Geordin Hill-Lewis has one promise to South Africans: building a stronger country for everyone. He was delivering his acceptance speech as Federal Leader of the DA. Tune in to #eNCA, channel #DStv403.

@Olivia_LaGrange @reallySober What lie was that?

@reallySober I doubt there is a capable one. Look at the new DA leader, he LIED just over a year ago, and when I called him out he blocked me. His lie was proven as well.... I don't trust any current white leader

Would you support a white South African president if the person was the best for the job?

@KatlegoMaseng1 How kaizer chiefs have not released is autobiography and thr story of chiefs formation is sleeping on the job.

From dusty streets in Soweto to building a football empire 🇿🇦🔥 Meet Kaizer Motaung — at 16 he played for Orlando Pirates, at 24 he dominated in the USA with Atlanta Chiefs and won Rookie of the Year… then came back home in 1970 and built Kaizer Chiefs by merging his name with his American club. Today, Amakhosi is more than football: 🏆 80+ trophies 👥 15+ million fans 💰 Over R2.6 billion in jersey sales (2M+ sold with Kappa South Africa) 🏢 Own village in Naturena + retail empire 🛡️ Funeral cover backed by Hollard From kicking a ball in the streets to building a multi-billion rand brand. Start where you are. Dream bigger. Build legacy. 💛✌🏾

@Bhudda_Sai60 @SkindeepJD Selling it was sad

@SkindeepJD Blame it on SAFA

The School of Excellence golden generation was well cooked, it’s a pity we’ll never see such level in pro-football again.

@ThePsyberFox @SupaVanSA Fuck "you". Racist.

@SupaVanSA It's not in "their" culture to be thankful for anything

Our reparations bill was settled in 1994 when we handed - on a silver platter - you the keys to the largest, most sophisticated economy on the continent. Never before or since has it been achieved on the continent. What is due is a massive thank you, humility and the carrying of white people on the hands for this incredible generocity you prick @CyrilRamaphosa.

@MazzucatoM @rodrikdani So what is your opinion on South Africa requiring Tesla to make public investment and public wealth commitment etc? Thats basically what they are saying.

Tesla received billions in government loans, tax credits and subsidies, making Elon Musk the world's richest person. The public? No equity stake, no profit-sharing, no guarantee of affordable access. My working paper with @rodrikdani has now been published in Industrial and Corporate Change. It explores the conditionalities—profit-sharing, reinvestment requirements, knowledge transfer—that can ensure industrial policy delivers public value, not just private wealth. [LINK IN NEXT POST]

@BeeforBeautiful @MusaNgxabane @ramalokot He is not stupid. He justvkices Zuma beyond beyond objective . Both presidents had good and bad.

@MusaNgxabane @funkmasterdfunk @ramalokot Use you brain a bit. You think building those stadiums would take a year? Mxmm, I hate stupidity.

Did you know! 🇳🇬🇿🇼 have to travel to 🇬🇧 to see this

@MusaNgxabane @ramalokot Zuma became president in 2009. We hosted on 2010. It takes way more than 1 year to plan, approve and build a stadium. Thabo was president during the bidding and building. Zuma hosted. Fairly Zuma was deputy.

@funkmasterdfunk @ramalokot Stop distorting history. These stadiums were built under the administration of President Zuma.

@njivana Even Cannavaro and puyol

Mbokazi is about the same height as Thiago Silva, Marquinhos and Lisandro Martinez

@MakhubuSimanga @joelphikan30053 Even Cannavaro. Puyol.kolo toure.

@joelphikan30053 The players u mentioned gives comfort but they far in between Martinez is 1.75m and Mbokazi is 1.77m Guehi is 1.82m though

Mark my words: Somewhere in Europe’s top leagues, there will be a coach who look height disadvantage and then declares: “Your best position is in the CDM role the heartbeat of the team, just like Claude Makélélé/N’Golo Kanté/Gennaro Gattuso”

@MusaNgxabane @ramalokot Mbeki built them. It was built for the 2010 world cup. Construction and approval started under mbeki. But Zuma also built infrastructure. Just not that stadium

@ramalokot We don’t appreciate President Zuma enough for these beautiful infrastructures.

@hallaboutafrica South africa generated $52 billion

Congrats Ethiopia: At investment conference in Addis Ababa, US$13 billion is committed from foreign investors in manufacturing, agriculture and agro-processing. It's an accomplishment. Kenya had a similar investment drive recently and got US$2.9 billion from foreign investors.

@charldpz @MMORTON6 How many white people choose to play soccer instead of rugby or cricket at school to create a supply of white soccer players? Accept also its a mainly black country. You ate surrounded by blacks.

@MMORTON6 How many white people are selected?

Bafana Bafana Group Confirmed: 🇲🇽 Mexico 🇨🇿 Czech Republic 🇰🇷 South Korea 🇿🇦 South Africa Hugo Broos confirms 70% of his selection is in his head, only a few spots up for grabs. A couple question marks still for Broos in my opinion. Who will play up front? 2nd choice goalkeeper? Best centre back to play with Mbokazi? Is there a structure we can play that allows for Appollis, Zwane and Mofokeng? What’s your biggest concern for Bafana Bafana heading into the 2026 World Cup? 💭🤔

@ShanksThfc Kekana. Maybe makhanya.

We need a Sundowns defender next to TLB, Okon haii angeke sbaaali
