@abelmike Note: "Takes" over the treasury. Taking, being the operative here.

Truly mysterious how local politics works. Is this not the very same Nkululeko Dunga who was fired as Ekurhuleni Finance MMC by ANC Mayor Xhakaza in 2024 who now lands the whole Gauteng Finance MEC job? Did I miss the part where his track record suddenly improved, or is “coalition politics” a new qualification on its own? The one area that needs critical focus in Gauteng right now, as literally everyone knows, is the judicious allocation of funds to fix infrastructure. Will this help fix Gauteng? How will his R179 billion budget be allocated?

@JDEGOEDE Ek het jou gese jy maak my moeg. Maar maggies, well done.

Harvest update day 50 . The Harvest fatigue is real now, but still all good. Another 775 ton recieved. Season total 45800 . A little Hanepoot, Cabernet Sauvignon Blanc,Colombar and Ruby Cabernet left. If all goes well we will probably finish by end of next week. 😁😁🍷🍷

@abelmike @CyrilRamaphosa @PresidencyZA Fully agreed.

I think we must distinguish between a Constitutional Democracy and a “young nation”. They are entirely different things. When the miracle of 1994 happened and the ending of Apartheid, it was a magnificent moment for rebuilding our economy as we were no longer pariahs - and by doing so, to create more jobs. It was a moment to close the equality gap, to build schools, end pit toilets, enhance education for all, and the same with healthcare. But there was an existing infrastructure in place - it wasn’t a start off nothing. But an opportunity to take a very unfair and unequal system, with a world class infrastructure in many areas - and to build on this. We must always be entirely factual and honest about our successes and failures equally, if we are to understand where things went right, or wrong, because failing to do so, and blaming it universally on “youth” won’t solve anything. Let’s just look at what Singapore and Dubai have achieved in 32 years. South Africa has abundant opportunities, but we must understand that unless we have the qualified people in the right jobs, we cannot succeed. Look at what is happening in Gqeberha (my hometown). A tragedy of note in how that city is falling apart. And we need world class governance. So long as our Auditor General reports on billions of misused funds, we cannot move forwards. I read an article just last week on a R32 million water tender awarded to a company with zero expertise nor equipment. And the missing funds from Gauteng healthcare facilities #BabitaDeokaran All these things need our attention Mr President and cannot and should not be brushed under the carpet of being “a young nation” 🙏 And 3 decades later is not a young nation either…

We are a young nation, just 32 years old. The Dawn of democracy in 1994 secured our freedom, but it also unleashed our potential. It set us on an irreversible path towards progress and shared prosperity. #SAIC2026 #InvestSA x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@JDEGOEDE Jy maak my moeg

Harvest update day 49. Still busy with a few things. Another 780 ton recieved. Season total just over 45 000 ton. Slowly moving towards the end. Cheers. 😁😁🍷🍷

@fbellingan Daar Moet bietjie inskoppe geoefen word die week. En enigiets hoog word ook aangeslaan. Basics.

Op die oomblik is daar geen verskoning dat enige afrigter Willie kies. Slaan my dronk hoe Akkers na die game kyk en dit nie sien. #ssrugby #BulvMun

@DPWorldTour Super round from Casey!

“I think it’s the perfect preparation for Augusta” 🗣️ Casey Jarvis reflects on his fantastic second round 64. #HeroIndianOpen

@NickHudsonCT Mindboggling that they still don't get it. Even the non MSM is in denial.

Nothing compared to the death on the streets that will come from Americans failing to wake up to the fact that their vote is irrelevant and their nation not sovereign because media and candidates are in the hands of parasitic bankers, and have been for decades.

@IanCameron23 We need you as Police Commissioner

I proudly endorse Geordin Hill-Lewis for Federal Leader of the DA. South Africa needs fighters, not passengers. The DA needs leadership with courage, discipline and the will to win. Geordin has proved he can govern. He is ready to lead from the front.

@emilejoubert He says, it doesn't bother him. Not that much bothers him these days.

Right decision.

@johnondrasik Joseph Williams of Toto. Russell Hitchcock of Air Supply.

Steve Perry is a better singer than all of these icons with the possible exception of Freddie and Plant. David Byrne?🙄

@followthebounce @livgolf_league @brysondech @Springboks This is a treasured moment Ben. Kudos to Bryson, a champion diplomat for the game of golf.

Best week of my sporting life. Thank you @livgolf_league. South Africa we have something huge to build on here. @brysondech come back for a @Springboks game when you can.

I propose Hennie Du Plessis for @SouthernGuards 2027 @LIVGolfEnth @livgolf_league #livgolf

@TheMasters The Home of golf.

At long last, spring has arrived. #themasters

@meganshead All these years, they were holding thumbs that the weather gods would bail them out. It was bound to catch up at a point.

Cape Town’s water situation has never been worse. No maintenance no new infrastructure no plan B for drought, just more sewage pumped into the sea.

@RykNeethling @PrinceAnele5 Only at Val de Vie right?

@PrinceAnele5 Not a good idea to own residential property in Gauteng

Massive influx of Middle East based expats looking for rentals and properties to purchase here in the Cape. Prices to rise a lot more 😄

@RomanCabanac As long as people will see colour only, and not the intention ...

Black South Africans won't vote for white politicians, this is quite obvious now.
