Your thoughts on this traditional African dance

Meet Anusha Gordhan, the daughter of #PravinGordhan. From only 11 ministerial responses we can confirm that she got tenders worth more than 80 million after her father was appointed Minister of Finance. Let's make her famous because the media won't show her face.

South Africa's parliament is comedy gold 🤣

Had these 3 met, the country would be bankrupt by now 🤞🏻

Salary = R64 000 Tax = R18 016 Net salary = R45 984 ————- Living costs: ▪️Food = R7 000 ▪️Rent = R11 000 ▪️Medical aid = R3 500 ▪️School fees = R2 500 ▪️Debt ( Car ) = R6 900 ▪️Fuel & Travel = R1 500 ▪️Insurance = R1 500 ▪️Water & Electricity = R2 000 ▪️ Entertainment = R2 500 Total = R38 400 ▪️Savings = R7 584 ———————————- *Tax rebates ( Year ) = R17 235 Additional notes: ▪️Rent payments could be for a bond, which allows you to build up savings via equity in home ▪️ Tax vehicles allow you to build up savings by reducing your current tax liability ( deferring it ) ▪️ May not have car debt because the car is paid off. Or you drive a cheaper car bringing down installments ▪️ May be a dual house income, so some costs could be split. —————- My point being, This is a fantastic salary, and the reality is most South Africans don’t even earn close to it. You are living a good life earning this salary. Your quality of life is of a great standard, it allows you to build savings and build an asset base.

The justice system in South Africa is treating the rich and famous with kid gloves whilst being harsh on the poor and vulnerable 🚮

ARE COLONIAL WHITES TO BLAME FOR THE STATE OF AFRICA TODAY? DO THEY HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY? I am posing this question and re-posting part of an earlier threat as a separate tweet just to capture this point. This is also arising from the claims of some that Africa has been independent for so long so much that there is no more reason to blame colonial whites for the state of Africa. It is being suggested by some that all blame should be laid at the feet of "corrupt and incompetent African leaders". Let's be clear, many an African leader has been a serious disappointment, some have been corrupt, some incompetent. But perhaps, the question also needs to be asked: what kind of African leader has this been? Is this the Pan African leader that actually fought for Africa and was selected by Africans, or is it the comprador bourgeoisie puppet leader imposed on Africa by the colonialists? Yes, it's been almost 30 years since the independence of South Africa and 43 years since the independence of Zimbabwe and some 60 years since the independence of Ghana, the DR Congo and others. While one would have expected a lot of progress to have been made - and a lot of progress was being made in the early days - one must also ask the question: what kind of leadership did post-colonial Africa get? It is instructive to note that in almost every single African country, there was destabilisation after destabilisation: coups, assassination of African leaders, and replacement with western puppets. In Ghana, the CIA overthrew the Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah and replaced him with their puppet Joseph Arthur Ankrah, decapitating Ghana's progress in the process. In Ivory Coast the French installed Félix Houphouët-Boigny who would go on to rule for decades, actively serving the interests of France. In the DR Congo the Belgians and CIA and their accolytes Moise Tshombe and Joseph Kasavubu, assassinated Patrice Emery Lumumba and installed Mobutu Sese Seko. The same would happen to Thomas Sankara who they assassinated and replaced with their puppet Blaise Compaoré. In Nigeria they overthrew Nnamdi Azikiwe and Abubakar Tafawa Balewa and replaced them with their puppets. In Ethiopia they overthrew Emperor Haile Selassie and replaced him with the dictator and Genocidaire Mengistu Haile Mariam. In Zimbabwe they decapitated Dr. Joshua Nkomo through Genocide against his people and placed Mugabe in power instead of him. In Uganda they used Idi Amin to overthrow Apollo Milton Obote and Uganda has never been the same. In Mali they overthrew Modibo Keita and replaced him with Moussa Traoré. In Togo they had assassinated Silvanus Olympio and replaced him with their puppets. In Mozambique and Angola they fomented rebellions in Renamo under Afonso Dhlakama and Jonas Savimbi and decapitated any progress. In the frontline states that were opposed ot Apartheid, bombing raids were carried out by the South African Defence Force, in addition to all kinds of subversion and sabotage. Tanzania, Zambia, Angola and other frontline states were to suffer both under the hands of the Apartheid Government and the Americans and Europeans. Many of these African states got caught up in the Big Power rivalry between the USA and the USSR. Now, what is instructive is that all these comprador bourgeoisie puppet leaders that were used by the West to overthrow Pan African leaders would go on to rule each for between 20 and 40 years, despite visiting the most horendous of crimes against their own people, presiding over gross incompetence and grotesque corruption. Their mission was to keep Africa divided, poor, fighting, unable to control its resources, and open to exploitation by Western corporations. The same people telling us about democracy today are the same people who imposed the most evil rulers upon us. It may well be said that Africa has yet to have its own legitimate leaders that have been fairly selected. And if we have learned anything from South Africa and Tanzania recently, any such leaders will still be persecuted if not outright assassinated. We find President Zuma in this category (do you realise that President Zuma went down the same way President Lula da Silva went down in Brazil, Dr. Mamohan Singh in India, and clearly the Presidents of Russia and China have been too powerful for the west to overthrow). In Ethiopia Prime Minister Meles Zenawi died allegendly naturally but your guess is as good as mine. The same tragedy visited President Pombe John Magufuli in Tanzania. But as Thomas Sankara warned in his famous A "United Front Against the Debt" speech to the OAU in Addis Ababa in July 1987, if we stand united as Africans, we will be able to prevent all these assassinations, coups, inteference, and neocolonial agendas. He argued: "I hope our conference sees the necessity of stating clearly that we cannot pay the debt. Not in a warmongering or warlike spirit. This is to avoid our going off to be killed one at a time. If Burkina Faso alone were to refuse to pay the debt, I wouldn’t be at the next conference. On the other hand, with the support of all, which I greatly need, with the support of all, we can avoid paying. And if we can avoid paying, we can devote our meager resources to our development." The time has come for the younger generation of Africans to rediscover the vision of the African Greats, the Pan Africanists in the mould of the Osegyafo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Nelson Mandela, Thomas Sankara, Dr. Joshua Nkomo, Patrice Emery Lumumba, Nnamdi Azikiwe, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Modibo Keita, Julius Nyerere, Keneth Kaunda, and lately, Thabo Mbeki, Pombe John Magufuli, Meles Zenawi, Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma, etc. Now, this is not to say that these leaders were perfect. By no means. But they were clear on the direction that Africa should take. They were clear on the need for African unity, and the need for Africa to determine its own destiny as a united force. They worked against almost insurmountable challenges, economic sanctions, persistent propaganda from the west, sabotage, etc, but they still held dear the vision of a united Africa that legitimately serves its own people. To come back to the original question posed: do we still have reason to blame colonial whites? I would say absolutely. It is them that imposed on Africa their puppets that have ruled for, in some cases, 40 years and above: Mugabe in Zimbabwe, Paul Biya in Cameron, Félix Houphouët-Boigny in Ivory Coast, Mobutu Sese Seko in the Congo, Idi Amin in Uganda, etc.; fomented rebellions, coups, assassinations, etc. If we are to solve the problems of Africa, we need to start with the question: what is the best way to select truly competent pro- and Pan African leaders that will ensure the unity, power, and prosperity of Africa? We need to ask ourselves: is this so-called democracy from the west bringing us the best of leaders, or it's just a rent-seeking mechanism for the west to continue to control us by sponsoring their puppets? Do we need perhaps to go back to our traditional institutions and find out how we can select the best of the best among us following some form of meritocracy? Perhaps replace the political parties with residents associations and community Lekgotlas to select the best who meet certain qualification and experience criteria?
