Banana republic

@daddyhope This song is no different to "Kill the Boer" . It has a historic story routed in territorial wars.

This morning, I shared a post on this platform condemning the tribalism of Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, who masquerades as a fighter against illegal immigration while pushing xenophobic, Afrophobic and tribalist messages. A lot of her supporters came to my wall to defend her, saying she was young when she posted those things. I do not understand what they mean by young, because Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma is 39 years old, with biographies published this year listing her date of birth as 6 July 1986.  They also say those posts were made a while ago. But even if you go back to 2014, she would already have been 27 turning 28 that year. That is not a child. That is not someone too young to understand the meaning of what they are saying. That is an adult who knew exactly what she was doing.  And here she is again, just two weeks ago, singing along while insulting the Shangaan ethnic group of South Africa. These are not foreign nationals. She is insulting her own fellow compatriots, fellow South Africans. So this nonsense about youth and old posts does not wash. It is a pattern. She is a tribalist. You can say anything you want, but she is a tribalist. Tribalism should never, ever be defended by anyone with common sense. It is a tool that was used against us as black people on this continent by colonialists and by those who sought to divide African communities. I do not condone illegalities at all. I, just like General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, am opposed to vigilante groups that go around harassing people and demanding proof of immigration status. That is not their job. It is the responsibility of the South African Police Service and the country’s immigration authorities, not random groups taking the law into their own hands. It is dangerous and unacceptable. Once we start allowing people to insult others on the basis of their ethnicity, we are going down a terrible road, one that will tear communities apart. And people like Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma should be condemned in the strongest terms for promoting that kind of division. We have terrible examples on this continent where tribalism was weaponised. In Rwanda, during the 1994 genocide, approximately 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus were massacred in about 100 days because of extremists who used ethnic identity to divide people and gain political power. I urge all Africans, particularly South Africans who have common sense, not to accept this kind of divisive behaviour by people like Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma. Such conduct is poisonous to any society and brings nothing but division. It started with attacks on Zimbabweans and Nigerians, and now it has extended to insulting fellow South African citizens. We have even seen cases where a Venda person was beaten simply for not being able to speak Zulu. That is tribalism, plain and simple. Is that the South Africa you want.

@Jamani_Khanyi He loves insults

Somizi refused to shake hands with Ngizwe Mchunu, then Ngizwe started being homophobic and insulted Somizi. 😩🚮

@NewsHawksLive Transfer of sentenced prisoners is the best one. Zimbabweans who commit crime in other countries must be sent to Chikurubi

🇪🇸🇬🇭 JUST IN : Spain introduces a new immigration policy under Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez to regularise undocumented migrants. Thousands of Ghanaians are expected to benefit through legal status. Work opportunities. And access to social services.

@Mothematiks Why do humans think of sex when they are drunk?

Are these the effects of fake alcohol or what? 😭🤭

@ivymuthe Bad idea. A very bad one. Some kids dont have clothes and parents cant afford. Uniform is an equaliser

Members of Parliament are advocating for the abolition of mandatory school uniforms, proposing instead that students be allowed to attend classes in casual clothes brought from home. Do you think this is a good or a bad move?

@GYerathel The way i fear 😢 pain

@Am_Blujay SA authorities should be engaging with their Zimbabwean counterparts to find out how these stolen vehicles are registered and fitted with Zim number plates.

@PhillipSibanda8 I pray for the day that all of Sub-Saharan Africa has economic strength and opportunities for its people so that no one's sons have to trek to faraway lands just to earn a $ #AU

Banana republic

Those clowns who call bananas taped to a wall art should see this!

@AfricanHub_ He is @elonmusk 's role model

In Uganda, Musa Hasahya, 68, has attracted attention for having 12 wives and 102 children over the years. He has admitted that life has become overwhelming, saying he can no longer remember all of his children’s names. Rising living costs and financial pressure have also taken a toll, as he notes that his income can no longer sustain such a large family. Hasahya now says he has stopped having children, and his wives have been placed on birth control as he shifts his priorities in life.

@AfricanHub_ Zimbabweans, please dont ruin this by overstaying. 90 day stay is still valid. Exit in time to avoid blacklist

Zimbabwe and Botswana are set to introduce passport-free travel for their citizens, allowing movement between the two countries using national identity cards instead of passports. The initiative will be implemented in phases, beginning with short visits and border communities. Botswana is also upgrading its ID system to enable the arrangement. The move strengthens cooperation between the two countries and follows similar travel agreements Botswana already has with Namibia and Zambia.

@GYerathel These doctors need to be stopped ✋️ 😒

#Incaseyoumissedit 🚨🚨🚨 The Nigerian community paid a special visit to the Palace of the Kingdom of AmaRharhabe (KuGompo City) to apologise for the misunderstanding with the local community and the installation of an Igbu King. They brought three cows to show respect and apology. Their apology was accepted. The King (iKumkani Jonguxolo Sandile, Aa!! Vul’ ulwandle!!) has called on the community to accept them, live peacefully with fellow Africans, and move on.
