So they used to call white people masters? > grin grin grin

it's projection. Its basically how Nigerians see white people. No African nation reveres ,worships and adores white people quite like Nigerians. They are like those tribes that live in the jungle and see a helicopter for the first time.

Sandton was a small town 30 years ago today it is the richest square mile in Africa, u telling us bout Abuja grin, just the number of schools built in SA by ANC is double the value of Abuja ;Dget outta here man, Abuja with less than 2 highways
Sandton was built by whites and Asians excaping the rapid decline of inner city of Johannesburg. It's black population is just 34% made up mainly of nannies and security guards.

Abuja only has two highways... you are high on drugs bro

even that were though this is true the fact is black hands laid the bricks, financed with our minerals, mined by us. It's like saying African Americans never contributed anything to American prosperity. The fact is development is still continuing, who's responsible for that now?

Besides the mineral isn't yours. Many of you Bantus immigrated to the current south Africa from Botswana after Afrikaans arrived.

Why should I quit acting intellectual when that's exactly what I am? grin Mzansi teens sha undecided
Bro a documentary done by the BBC about apartheid in 1970 said that only about 400 Blacks were in universities at the time. Maybe those 400 blacks became your brightest minds. They aren't particularly bright though (compared to their Nigerian counterparts) for we Know that black south Africans are not visible on the global stage.
In the the billionaire list of south Africa, only one is black in a country they are 80%. And we all know how corrupt allocation of mines by the ANC made him rich
South Africa does not have one black billionaire, they are plenty. And if you talking about Mostsepe he's not even ANC affiliated. Even if we had one black billionaire and you have 50 its pointless if the standards of your living are poor. You have poor healthcare, roads, electricity etc and you celebrate that you have 30 Black billionaires who could solve those problems but don't.urgh

I like how you Nigerians always claim superior intelligence but nothing shows with the state of your country. We even dwarf you in literacy levels.

Visible on what stage? Black South Africans arent overly Gaga about Europe and oyinbo like you Nigerians. There are those who go to the UK to study but come back. Its not a status symbol like it is over there

But the only experience I have had with a black south African turned sour because of irrational hate against Nigerians....at a time when I did didn't even know things were like that
Look at this naive simpleton grin grin If there's one thing South Africans of all races and sexes have in common is the disdain for Nigerians, Nigerians are justnot held with a high esteem here. You chill with one bored Indian and you think they all like you? Ha ha ha. But it's typical of you people, always seeking validation and acceptance form non-blacks.

You have not remarkably improved SA and I'm sure you know this.

At the bolded in your post, it should be 'shown' not showed. Learn your verbs undecided or are you a student of University of Shaka Zulu?

We spend close to $100 Billion on public infrastructure each year, that money is building stuff you refuse to admit. Just coz we don't have a city called Abuja doesn't mean our existing ones haven't been expanded and upgraded. You said it yourself SA is a huge country, we not short of land for expansion in our cities. You think like a child my guy, if u don't see a new hyped-up city u refuse to believe there's progress.

A South African kingdom that partly governs a small stretch of the country's platinum belt has managed to transform mineral wealth into social stability.

The Royal Bafokeng Nation has funnelled money it earns from its Royal Bafokeng Platinum (RBPLat) company into a mini sovereign wealth fund that provides cash for schools, clinics and infrastructure.

A little larger than New York City, the kingdom stands out as a beacon of success amid the poverty of the platinum belt, which is home to nearly 80 percent of the world's known platinum reserves.

Although the nation is often called “the country's richest tribe”, it is still far from a paradise.

Its unemployment rate is well above the national average and crime is high, as are HIV infection rates. RBPLat pays its workers about the same as other platinum firms.

But the wages appear to go much further because of the kingdom's social spending, residents say.

For pensioners such as Baanjo Mfulmwane, the kingdom sends out vans to shuttle them for medical treatment: “There is someone to pick me up even though I don't have money,” she said.

Schools

At Lemao Boitshoko's school in Phokeng (the capital city), classmates play soccer under solar-powered floodlights on a synthetic pitch imported from Italy - facilities that would be difficult to find elsewhere in the platinum belt.

“I want to be a doctor. I can do that anywhere, but it's a lot easier to do because I live here,” Boitshoko said.

Public schools have, at the minimum, qualified teachers, books, desks and electricity. The ratio of students passing a high school graduation exam in the Bafokeng kingdom is about 20 percentage points above the national average.

Accomodation

Most miners in the Bafokeng Nation live with their families in modest homes connected to electricity lines and clean water, and along paved roads where garbage is regularly collected.

The conditions are far better than the shanties around many South African platinum mines, where miners pay to live alone in shacks without water, electricity and plumbing, sending money to extended families far away.

Investments

The kingdom set up Royal Bafokeng Holdings in 2006 to manage and develop its commercial assets, merging two other funds. It is a major shareholder in Impala Platinum and Zurich Insurance Company South Africa, and holds shares in major telecoms firm Vodacom and local manufacturers.

The holding company's portfolio was valued at $2.92 billion, according to its 2011 annual report. In 2010, it provided an $92.92 million dividend to the Royal Bafokeng Nation, equal to about $620 per person.

Three quarters of the dividend went to schools, sewage systems, roads, electric lines, sports, police, housing and social welfare, according to the kingdom's accounts published on the Internet, providing additional benefits over and above what the local and national governments spend.

The remainder, about $23.23 million, was spent on administration, including an undisclosed salary for the king.

The Future

At the current rate of platinum extraction, the mineral reserves in the Bafokeng land will last another 35 to 40 years, according the kingdom's estimates.

King Kgosi Leruo Molotlegi, born in 1968, trained as an architect and has a penchant for well-tailored suits. He is said to understand that the platinum wealth provides only a short timeframe to transform the kingdom.

“Our governance and internal controls must be benchmarked against the very best,” he wrote in the kingdom's master plan.

“Our plans must be realistic and affordable.”
