For the Speaker, very hawt cool

I've always thought she was pretty, but she's recently become very controversial. I don't know if you followed the controversy around her election to speaker a few months ago.

Did the EFF just applaud the fact that de Klerk is dead shocked? The speaker mentioned it and we saw the red berets looking clapping and looking rather delighted.

Hello nairalanders.
I am an experienced bolt driver based in abuja.

I am looking for a partner who can provide me a car to drive on Bolt platform,either on weekly remittance or hire purchase basis.

Thank you.

How much do you balance in a month? What type car is best, and how much is the car? How can you prove you are trustworthy?

Without the white pple, their state of infrastructure development and all would be worse than Sudan as the guy rightly said.

You're the one who's unrealistic. Is Botswana (or even Nigeria) worse than South Sudan? The richest tribe in Africa is South African in case you didn't know - the Royal Bafokeng derived from their platinum wealth (see attachments).

We share the same ancestry as Botswana and have far more mineral wealth than them. So why would we be worse than South Sudan undecided You're just jealous of black South Africans.

We are talking about SA here not USA.
The Executive want these kinds of fraudulent people so that they'll obey everything thrown at them or their files will be opened.

If you have a Speaker without blemish, what can the Executive threaten him/her with? Nothing.

But when you have a woman who have been involved in countless scandals, from the Zuma days to the travelgate issues, to her husband been an integral member of the Executive, how can the House not be an appendage of the Exec?

She didn't learn anything from Chumani's death. I just like her beauty jareh....she has been seeing money so she is suppose to be beau grin

I was streaming, got tired of whatever Enoch was saying.

Just got on Twitter, and they're really attacking de Klerk. Many saying he should have answered for his crimes.

Do you know what the whites did in South africa? Let me tell you. Around 1900 british colonists came to South africa and passed a law that 93% of land in South africa belongs to whites in the main arable lands while 7% of the land which exists in non-arable remote areas belong to blacks. Then they began to use police and soldiers to enforce the law driving them out of their land. This was the exact same thing the british colonists did to Aborigines in Canada. After that they passed laws black can't marry white backs have their own areas and can't come intowhite areas etc.

They were colonists and played zero role in South africa s economic and infrastructual development. The goal of colonization is ALWAYS enrichment of the colonizer at the expense of the colonized....

Blacks are great. I was once brainwashed like you due to foreign media that always portrays blacks badly. Blacks developed rwanda, Egypt, South Africa, Lagos State in Nigeria, Botswana, lybia, Namibia and more.

An offer was made for PW Botha to be granted a state funeral, but the family declined. Maybe that was even the official PR settlement with the state. I suspect the same will happen with FW - there'll be a small affair with some state involvement.

Sir, you're absolutely very right on all your claims. I'm not arguing that.

What I'm telling you and would keep telling you is that all the development you see today in a place like South Africa is ONLY possible where true sanity and modern civilization thrives. So far, this is ONLY found among white people. Anywhere whites dominate is where you experience real development and growth.

The black man is not wired to successfully function within modern civilization. The average black man's mentality is ape-like. I know you've got lots of lessons to teach me... it's fine but, trust me, I know what I'm saying.

Lol, the covid excuse will backfire coz they allowed campaigning for the elections. The de Klerk family is gonna read the public mood and opt for a private ceremony, in my opinion. This has a potential to turn into an embarrassment for them if they do anything larger.

Your last statement is exactly why I remain vindicated! The presence of white pple in SA made it what it is today. Black ppl aren't made to value modern civilization just like a animals can't understand civilization.

Take a goat or pig into an office and see how they'll mess it up! grin

Hmmm....politicians have a way of saying it and makes it look better.

Here, they locked everyone in 'cos of COVID-19 and allowed everyone vote during election grin

You are very correct...It will play same way. Will Rama allow flags fly at half-mast? It is not wise for him to call for that.

02/02/1990:

He unbanned exile political movements, the ANC, the Pan-Africanist Congress (PAC) and the South African Communist Party (SACP). FW de Klerk also announced that Nelson Mandela would be released after 27 years in jail. Mandela was released nine days later.

FW de Klerk also announced a moratorium on the death penalty, the end of the state of emergency – which had been in place for five years. The speech would lay the ground for the country's first democratic elections, which took place place four years later in April 1994.


Hearse leaves the home of FW de Klerk this morning @ Cape town.

At the bolded it's not true.... the Hans people in China dominate China and in China, you have progress and development....same in the middle east anywhere you see Saudi princes you see progress and development. Also in Nigeria anywhere you see Yoruba and igbos you see progress and development.

you have been brainwashed.... in the 19th and 20th centuries, western Europe embarked on a campaign to brand Africans subhuman and you are a victim of that campaign....

Realize that you are the treasure. France once claimed Algeria is part of France lol....

Development in africa has been stalled by colonial influence which continues to this day and has nothing to do with white presence.

Botha got that honour so I guess de Klerk will too. But the youth weren't as woke back in 2006 - and the EFF didn't exist. So Rama has to take that into account.

Don't know how I feel about this as a black South African. But he definitely took very bold moves to dismantle apartheid - even though apartheid had become unsustainable under massive international pressure and the state had become bankrupt - some say he had no choice. He also needed to account for the black on black violence that ensued during the transition period, believed to have been orchestrated by the outgoing apartheid state.

And he remained quite controversial to his death.

Anyway, RIP - that's Ubuntu - we don't speak ill of the dead in Africa.
Is it true what I hear some white people says on YouTube that you black South Africans missed the apartheid era due to the insecurity and economic hardship plaguing the current post apartheid South Africa.

Ramaphosa is unfortunate in that he inherited an absolute mess from thieves that still sit in his cabinet and are sabotaging him. He was Mandela's pick for a successor instead of Mbeki so that should tell u something.
