This is Kenyan President William Ruto boasting that Kenyans speak better English than Nigerians 🤣🤣🤣 He is confusing accent with diction. When African presidents boast that their citizens speak “better English” than others, they are not demonstrating a strong education system, as Ruto claims, they are showcasing a deep inferiority complex rooted in colonial conditioning. English is a colonial language, not a measure of intelligence, capability, or national progress. You can be fully fluent in a language and still have an accent that is difficult for some listeners to understand, as Nigerians do. Fluency means you have a strong command of vocabulary, grammar, and the ability to express ideas. Accent, on the other hand, relates to pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation, which are shaped by your first language and speech environment, which is what Ruto is confusing with good English. Has he ever had someone from Scotland, Liverpool, or Birmingham speak? Accents are a natural linguistic outcome, not a measure of education. They emerge from the influence of a person’s first language, the sounds and speech patterns they grow up with, and the environment in which they learn and use another language. Every language has its own phonetic structure, and when people speak a second language like English, those underlying patterns shape pronunciation, rhythm, and tone. That is why accents vary across regions and countries. They reflect history, identity, and exposure, not intellectual or educational superiority. I know that there is some kind of tension between Nigeria and Kenya, but such misleading statements undermine the confidence of young people. When they hear a president speak like that about how they speak, it erodes their self-belief, and that is not a good thing to come from a president.

A man worth $817 billion is crying over installing Starlink in South Africa , is this about money ? I think not South African government should never allow his technology in the country he will destabilise the government and steal data there is more to his tantrums and spread of misinformation than it is about making money .

𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐚 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐲’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬. Normally, when investors don’t like a country’s regulations, they leave quietly. They move to friendlier markets. 𝗜𝗳 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 is as revolutionary as we are told, then 🇿🇦 South Africa rejecting it would be our loss. Not Elon’s. Not Starlink’s. If we are making a mistake, let us make it and learn from it. But now we have the richest man alive running a very public pressure campaign, backed by powerful networks, trying to force entry into a sovereign market. That alone should make people pause. Because here is the part that gets ignored: South Africa already hosts hundreds of foreign companies across sectors: • ~600 🇺🇸 American
• 1,000+ 🇪🇺 European & UK
• ~270 🇯🇵 Japanese
• ~200 🇨🇳 Chinese
• ~150 🇮🇳 Indian They don’t fight the system.
They comply. Partner. Or walk away. Even in telecoms, foreign firms operate here under ICASA licences like: • I-ECS (service licence)
• I-ECNS (network licence) The exact framework required to operate legally. And many global players already do: • Verizon South Africa 🇺🇸
• China Telecom South Africa 🇨🇳
• Bloomberg Value-Added Network Services SA 🇺🇸
• IBM South Africa 🇺🇸
• BT 🇬🇧
• Orange S.A. 🇫🇷
• China Mobile International 🇨🇳
• AT&T South Africa 🇺🇸 When 🇿🇦 Vodacom entered the market, it worked within the system. When technologies like 3G, 4G, fibre and ADSL rolled out, they followed regulatory processes or partnered locally. That is how technology enters a sovereign market. It does not arrive with political pressure, public campaigns, and urgency narratives. No other product has ever been pushed like this.
Not fibre.
Not mobile networks.
Not 3G, 4G or 5G.
Not computers.
Not phones.
Not cars. Technology usually sells itself. So when something needs lobbying, narrative pressure, and public mobilisation to enter a market, the question is simple: Why? I foresee a future where countries have destroyed local internet service providers and are at the mercy of Starlink and the USA 🇺🇸. Even worse, African states that have not developed robust local service providers will now never have a chance to do so, just as we will never have a local social media platform because we missed that opportunity. We get randomly blocked by the unfair rules of other countries. Imagine a future where you are fully dependent on the internet 🛜 under the same restrictive Terms & Conditions.
𝑺𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒍𝒆 𝑴𝒔𝒊𝒃𝒊 Ⓜ@SandileKaMsibi

Not really: Starlink is more attractive to countries without strong local telecoms. Here are some views on starlink & South Africa 🇿🇦. 1. ICASA- The country regulates and sells EMR spectrum like real estate, requiring companies to purchase or license spectrum before operating. You can’t/ shouldn’t just beam EMR internet into South Africa 🇿🇦 2. South Africa has a 74% internet penetration rate and 80% surface coverage, mainly provided by local ISPs that Hire local workers,Pay major taxes within South Africa, Have government ownership stakes,Are listed on the JSE allowing citizens to invest in stocks so they serve as crucial economic assets. 3. Countries that adopt Starlink before developing their own telecoms will lose the chance to build local industries. They risk becoming permanently dependent on Elon Musk, Starlink, and the USA 🇺🇸, locking their infrastructure into foreign hands forever. 4. Local Partnerships & BEE -Even global players like Vodafone had to partner with Telkom to form Vodacom when entering South Africa. This highlights the importance of local partnerships for operating within the country.

@Newzroom405 Fair argument from SA side. Others can also fairly raise their opinions. Hopefully the balance, can be fair to the people of SA, most of whom continue to be under- privileged and live in squalor.

Africans were selling fellow Africans as slaves to Arab slave traders for CENTURIES before the first Europeans ever showed up. And when Britain banned the slave trade they got angry that their trade was being thwarted and refused to stop slave trading.
Chinda@Chindaah

@WanjiruNjoya Africans might be the biggest problem of Africa. Without Africans slave trade could have never been possible.

@elonmusk I think, it will be responsible, to also mention, a lot more black people are also murdered in South Africa, due to the crime problem in South Africa.

🔹At the peak of his power in the early 1980s, Mobutu Sese Seko amassed a personal fortune estimated between USD7 billion and USD10 billion. This staggering wealth occasionally exceeded Zaire’s entire GDP, which was approx, USD9 billion,meaning Mobutu was technically wealthier than the country he ruled. 🔸While Zaire survived on USD8.5 billion in Western loans and grants between 1970 and 1994, Mobutu’s private assets could have theoretically funded the nation’s entire debt. His portfolio was global, featuring luxury estates in Belgium, Switzerland, France, and Morocco. Within Zaire, his holdings were equally extravagant with ,11 palaces, a luxury yacht, and a private gold mine reportedly containing 100 tons of gold. 🔹By the time he was deposed in the late 1990s, his wealth sat at roughly USD5 billion. Adjusted for inflation at an average 10% annual rate, that fortune would be worth approximately USD87 billion today. Mobutu remains the ultimate historical example of a leader whose personal treasury rivalled, and at times surpassed,his nation's economy. 🔸 Chero ukaita mari yakaita sei, and change all the key roles in the military to coup-proof, Shiri inozongofa! There is no currency that is more valuable than the PEOPLE of a nation! Igaroziva!! #NoTo2030!!

I have no right to British citizenship. My ancestors first came to Africa in the 1600s as refugees fleeing religious persecution in France. Legally, Zimbabwe is the only country on this earth I can call home. And I love Zimbabwe! 🇿🇼💚Thank you to the kind lady speaking up for me.
kudakwashe marazanye@KMarazanye

So a black Zimbabwean defends @DougColtart claiming Zimbabwe is his (Coltart's) only home? The British have always looked out for their kith and kin. Coltart's British ancestry means he has a choice to go back to the UK 🇬🇧 which black Zimbabweans don't have
