South Africa is in what continent sef

A disturbing phenomenon is arising across Africa, this is a tactic that was used by the the European Emperors of ancient Roman Empire but today, some of our leaders have masterfully implemented this tactic on the minds of the African layman and for this, I foresee a great evil that will destroy everything until those that remain are too weak to fight their enslavement.



This is about the xenophobic murders & looting happening in South Africa in the past few days of August to September 2019, many of us looking at the event, look at the angry, mostly slum dwelling unemployed South Africans, killing innocent African migrants in their country with disgust and most of us have put the full blame on them. Yet I assure you that there is something worse, something greatly wicked going on in the background, and by the end of this article, you will understand some of what is truly going on.



In Rome, when the people got agitated because of due to growing hunger or lack of opportunities for the layman and the Cesar feared that the people will go wild and breakdown the system, becoming uncontrollable, the Cesar will organize games and festivities that lasted days, giving them the illusion of a great society while the Cesar worked behind closed doors to secure himself, strengthen the army presence in the capital, endorse legislation that the people will otherwise refuse if enough attention was on the matter and many time, this lead to the reduced rights of the people. This is the same game that is being played on the South African people, to be honest, across Africa. The looting and murder of the African foreigners in South Africa is the new Colosseum and gladiatorial arena, distracting the people from the obvious elephant in the room, the fact that Europeans descendants of the perpetrators of the apartheid own everything and are still 100% in control as they all remain in the upper middle class and the super rich, benefiting from the best that South Africa has to offer, while black South Africans unwittingly go around, killing and looting people who are bottom dwellers as they are, doing the hard work for their dutch (white) overlords who actually own everything.





A situation is introduced apparently from no where and allowed to linger, as the people look one way, legislation and laws are put into effect that only serve to increase the power of the few over the many.



What has been the political, economical and societal condition of the South African common man in the past 20 years:



More than 50% of all blacks in South Africa live in abject poverty, which is evident in the fact that the slums & ghettos seems to be far more over populated than the city centers. Another 30% of South Africans find themselves below the middle class income, white most European Whites, Chinese and Arab dominate the middle, upper middle class and super wealthy.



In the past 30 years, South African crimes and criminals have grown bolder and more sadistic, evident in the increased rapes and thefts around South Africa mostly perpetrated by the mislead blacks and mulattoes of South Africa.



The growth of unemployment has been steady for 30 years.

The South African woman has more job opportunity than the average male South African, there also seem to be more black women in universities than men in South Africa.



A breakdown of the family as 60% to 70% of marriages end in divorce.



The unprecedented increase of teenage pregnancies, babies that will grow up without a father or a stable home, children who have been proven to be prone to violence.

The introduction of drugs becomes the icing on the cake that puts crime, prostitution and violence on hyper-drive.



With this downward spiral it is only natural that the society will totally breakdown eventually. But for one second let us look at the downward spiral of South Africa and just for the sake of posterity agree that there is an unseen hand pulling the strings, let us all think to ourselves, who stands to gain from the devastation and alienation of the blacks in South Africa.

South Africa seems to be taking the exact same footsteps that the African American took from the 60s to the 90s. First a nice time of job opportunities and the resemblance of equality, then the loss of these jobs, neighborhoods turned into Ghettos, the introduction of drugs into the system, the rise of teenage pregnancy, the breakdown of marriages, the silent provision of education and job opportunities for the women, empowering women over men no matter how progressive the society is, this act will create a confused generation of men against women and women against men mentality, pushing society step by step into a melt down of morality with drugs as a catalyst for this process. This systematic breaking down of society will lead to frustration, as the mind of the people are fighting an enemy they can neither identify or comprehend.

Is the situation of the south African men self inflicted or is there a hidden hand that has orchestrated this chaos towards an end? I think that there is a concentrated effort by unseen powers to bring the black population to their knees, i say this because what has befallen the black population of South Africa through the clever breakdown of society seems to be the same modus operandi used in the black population of the United States and anywhere that a white population is living alongside the descendants of Africa. To clearly see who the conductors of this symphony are, we must first look without bias who stands to gain at the detriment of the blacks of South Africa.

Is it not interesting that the Blacks of South Africa the face of the xenophobic attacks? Is it not equally interesting that the Blacks of South Africa have been guided to see the most powerless group as their enemies? This enemies happen to be black and these are the same group who spoke up with Blacks of South Africa during the apartheid, by this action the blacks of South Africa have alienated themselves from the rest of Africa, leaving them open to the whims of those super rich Whites who control South Africa who have also over the years shown that they remain as racist and apartheid as ever.

The super-rich whites in South Africa control the wealth fully, so they control the jobs and government, this is not hidden news, yet Black South Africans were convinced by puppets who belong to the Whites in South Africa to turn on their brothers, who they can slaughter and plunder without repercussion. I can see the hands of the European overlords who truly control every aspect of South African Society playing a hand in this event because the symphony of wickedness concocted isn’t composed for the benefit of the black South African layman, the xenophobic killings have done two things has created a problem in South Africa which the people do not yet see.

Those who are involved in the looting and killing won't simply stop, these are mostly drugged up black men who have never been in a position of power and money, they have looted and they will continue to do so. When the finally drive all the African Foreigners from South Africa, they turn on each other when they realize there is still no job that can satisfy their urges, this will lead to a total break down in the black society. But who stands to gain at the broken down black South African society? The whites, who will then be the same people the broken blacks turn to, when this happens the rhetoric that they are inferior so there for unable to manage their country will be validated, then comes the apartheid times again. They have alienated themselves from the rest of Africa and the world, so there will be no one to turn to when the sufferings begin again.

I dare say that a 1000 years from now, the whites in South Africa will be recognized as the true indigenes of the land, they also call their so called language Afrikaans, could this be a blueprint on how the white races of Europe wish to divide and conquer the land of Africa until they alone are remembered as the true African. It seems awfully convenient that the black continent is called Africa and these dutch settlers who just arrived call themselves Afrikaners and speaking Afrikaans, Africa must be careful for great evil is on the horizon for the black man in Africa. South Africa has just sealed their fate, the coming months should validate every point I have made in this article.

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida -- Google Earth and a drone helped some Floridians crack a 22-year-old cold case, but there are still some unanswered questions.

WPTV reports there was a startling discovery made just across the street from Brian and Lori Martin's home in Grand Isles.

"They did come knocking on our door and ask how long we have been living here and we said 'about 9 years' and they said 'did you realize that there was a car in the lake?'" resident Lori Martin said.

In August, detectives with the Palm Beach County Sheriff's office pulled a 1994 Saturn SL from a retention pond off Moon Bay Circle.

They were tipped off by someone who used to live in the neighborhood and spotted the car on Google Earth.

Someone who lives there now then used a personal drone to take a closer look.

Investigators were called to the scene. Inside the car, they found the skeletal remains of William Earl Moldt who was reported missing in November 1997.

"I'm sure the family has been looking for him," Lori Martin said.

Moldt was 40 years old when he disappeared. He would be 62 years old today.

His girlfriend at the time says they spoke on the phone a couple hours before he left an adult night club.

He's believed to have had several drinks before leaving alone on November 7, 1997.

"If there is an upside to this is that the family finally knows what happened to their loved one and like my wife said we give condolences to that family," Brian Martin said.

It's still not clear exactly how the car ended up in the pond.

The sheriff's department continues to investigate.

Basketball legend Michael Jordan is joining the list of celebrities helping to provide relief to the Bahamas following Hurricane Dorian.


People reported that the six-time NBA champion and Charlotte hornets owner announced in a statement posted on Twitter by his representative, Estee Portnoy, that he would be donating $1 million to "organizations assisting with relief efforts in the Bahamas."


"I am devastated to see the destruction that Hurricane Dorian has brought to the Bahamas, where I own property and visit frequently. My heart goes out to everyone who is suffering and to those who have lost loved ones. As the recovery and relief efforts continue, I will be tracking the situation closely and working to identify non-profit agencies where the funds will have the most impact. The Bahamian people are strong and resilient and I hope that my donation will be of help as they work to recover from this catastrophic storm."


Statement From Michael Jordan






Jordan, 56, has a net worth of $1.9 billion,

according to Forbes.


Bahamas Health Minister Duane Sands confirmed to NBC News Tuesday morning that 44 people died because of the slow-moving hurricane, which battered the island for days.


https://ebeanonews..com/2019/09/michael-jordan-donates-1m-to-bahamas.html

“I was fully informed about the manipulations, intrigues, intimidation and betrayals. The consequences of not conceding were only better imagined. My natural instinct for peace automatically surfaced. I was going to make a decision which reflected my commitment to that ideal. This is the foundation of my essence. In my periodic projections into the future, I did not see how I would be presiding over any kind of chaos. I was prepared to promote the peace, unity and progress of Nigeria.

“This is a huge sacrifice, but I hope my readers believe me when I say it turned out to be one of the easiest decisions I ever took while in office. With my mind made up, I knew it was time to inject peace into the tensed polity, especially before INEC completed collation.

“I was in my living room with some ministers, aides and friends. Among them were the Coordinating Minister for the Economy/Honourable Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Honourable Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mohammed Bello Adoke, SAN, the Honourable Minister of Aviation, Mr. Osita Chidoka and Waripamowei Dudafa, my Senior Special Assistant on Domestic Affairs.

“They were recommending sundry alternatives, but I was quiet in the midst of their discussion. I hugged my thoughts, figuring out how to do that which was best for the country. My personal interest was receding rapidly and the interest of Nigeria looming large. I excused myself and left the sitting room. I walked into my study. Even here, my mantra was a strong circle around me, supporting and comforting me. Let the country survive. Let democracy survive. My political ambition is not worth people being ‘soaked in blood’.

“More reports flowed in and I could not wait anymore. The announcement of the final result could take issues out of all our hands. It was time for me to take action and bring peace to the nation. I felt I was destined by God at that point in time to inject the peace serum and douse the palpable tension in the country.

“I reached for the telephone and placed a call through the State House operators at about 4:45 pm. A peace I had never felt since my political sojourn, descended on me. It showed me where I had been in the past 16 years and where I was then. I smiled at the thought of what I was about to do. I waited calmly for the person at the other end of my call to answer.

Buhari : “Hello Your Excellency!”
Me : Your Excellency, how are you?”

Buhari: “I am alright, Your Excellency”
Me: “Congratulations!”

Buhari: “Thank you very much Your Excellency …”

“For several seconds the line was seized by the loudest silence I have ever known. Then we had a brief discussion. I could sense his relief too. He knew what could have been. Here is a man who had contested three times and lost. Maybe my gesture humbled him against his expectations because he thanked me and we talked about the handing over processes.

“Everywhere all over Africa, Asia and other parts of the world, countless deaths have been recorded on the scores of elections and power disputes. I mentioned Cote d’Ivoire earlier, where people died in their thousands during post-election violence. A similar scenario had unfolded in Kenya. African nations are more prone to post-election violence than other parts of the world.

Only very few African nations have not experienced post-election violence on a very grand scale or some bitter power tussle fed by tribal or ethnic sentiments.

“I hung up the phone, confident that my decision was right for Nigeria and would probably have a great impact on Africa. This may well be the beginning of a new perspective to power; a perspective which places national interest above personal preference. It should not always be about winning.

“After my conversation with Muhammadu Buhari, which lifted my spirit greatly, I felt better and lighter; it was time to break the news to my Ministers and aides. I wandered back into the living room. These are people I came to know after a period of time. I anticipated what their response would be.

“In my new found calm, I stood before them and told them what I had just done. The elections were over. I had called and congratulated Muhammadu Buhari on his victory. It was time for all of us to move on.
Stunned silence greeted the room for some time and after they overcame their shock, they all congratulated me.

“My Aviation Minister, Osita Chidoka, sought my permission to tweet my phone conversation with Muhammadu Buhari. I obliged and he did. The country was no longer waiting for the declaration of the election results. The nationwide tension automatically dissipated as though a red hot piece of iron had been dipped in a bowl of water.’’

In anticipation of an influx of more than 600 Nigerian nationals fleeing South Africa, the Council for Renewable Energy Nigeria (CREN) has offered free training in renewable energy technologies in an attempt to fast-track their integration into the economy.

The group of Nigerian nationals is returning to their homeland out of fear following a spate of xenophobic violence that has gripped South Africa.

Since the beginning of September, 12 people have been killed in South Africa during protests and violence from South Africans against foreign nationals.


While the South African government maintains there has not been an official evacuation order from Abuja, a private airline called Air Peace offered free flights to any Nigerian wanting to escape the Rainbow Nation and return home.



President of CREN Dr. Sunny Akpoyibo revealed the move was an attempt to give something back to the people who had just lost everything they had worked for over their years in South Africa.

“Nigeria is richly endowed and we shall not allow our people to be cast adrift after losing all they have worked hard for over the years. In support of President Muhammadu Buhari’s next level vision to change the Nigerian story, a part of which is ensuring that all Nigerians have marketable skills,” he said.

The planned evacuation of Nigerians from South Africa has been delayed by at least six hours by authorities in that country.
The returnees were initially billed to arrive Nigeria at 2:00pm on Wednesday but the time was shifted to either 6 or 8:00pm.
An Air Peace Boeing 747 aircraft had in the evening of Tuesday departed the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, for the evacuation of 317 Nigerians in the first batch but information gathered by our correspondent indicated that the South African Immigration Services delayed the flight due to profiling.
As at the time of filing this report, it was not clear if the Nigerians had departed the former apartheid nation.
Chairman of Nigerians in the Diaspora Commission, Abike Dabiri-Erewa, told journalists at the Lagos Airport that South African Immigration Services had insisted on conducting another round of documentation on the returnees.

She said the situation had led to the delay in the take-off of the aircraft billed for evacuation early this morning.
On arrival, she said the returnees would be profiled and given stipend in the form of transport fares to their final destinations.
She further stated that the government had mobilised the Bank of Industry to work out skills acquisition and other social intervention programmes for interested returnees.

What is our govt really doing shu

A young South Carolina boy who gave up his Disney trip to help Hurricane Dorian evacuees got a free trip to "The Most Magical Place On Earth."

Jermaine Bell and his family saved up a whole year in preparation to celebrate his seventh birthday at Walt Disney World. But then Hurricane Dorian hit and Bell decided to use the money to help others.

He spent the birthday money on hot dogs and supplies to feed evacuees fleeing the storm.

"I just wanted to give people something to eat, so they can get where they are going," Bell said. The young man said his life motto is "live to give."

Upon hearing of Bell's generosity and selflessness, Disney decided to give him and his family a free trip to the Magic Kingdom.
A Disney bus pulled up to Bell's house over the weekend and cast members surprised him with the news that his birthday trip was back on!

The lesson he's learned from all of this:
"Be strong. And if you do something good, good will come back to you," Bell said.

Akon is somewhat under fire for saying he signed Wizkid and Davido back in the days, to help their careers but it later turned out sour.



In a interview with The breakfast Club, the American singer made revelation about Nigeria’s biggest acts, Psquare, Wizkid and Davido and how “in Africa, especially in Nigeria, music contracts are not honoured.



Furthermore, he added that he loves the two artists regardless, but David more for his independent nature and his hustling spirit despite his struggles in Atlanta as a young musician.

Local Belgian media has revealed that about 10 billion euros ($12.3 billion) have disappeared from four frozen Euroclear Bank accounts belonging to two Libyan state agencies.



The accounts containing 16.1 billion euros of state funds were frozen since March 2011 in accordance with a United Nations resolution as part of sanctions against the late Muammar Gaddafi’s inner circle, reports weekly newspaper Le Vif.



“There remains a little less than 5 billion euros on the four accounts opened at Euroclear Bank SA,” they quoted Denis Goeman, a spokesman from Brussels prosecutor’s office.





The disappearance was noticed when Belgian authorities tried to seize the funds in 2017 during a probe into alleged money laundering by Gaddafi’s inner circle.



Euroclear Bank had refused to hand over the accounts belonging to Libyan Investment Authority (LIA) and its subsidiary Libyan Foreign Investment Company (LFICO) in Bahrain and Luxembourg, prompting the probe.



European weekly newspaper Politico reported that interest from the accounts was released every month without authorization by the Belgian authority to an “HSBC account in Luxembourg belonging to LIA and to several other LIA accounts at the Arab Banking Corporation whose main shareholder is the Libyan Central Bank.”

The UN placed sanctions on the Libyan government’s assets after NATO’s intervention in 2011. It has since seized about $67 billion from the accounts of the LIA across Europe and North America.

The Lagos State House of Assembly aren't taking violence and disturbance in the state likely anymore as several members of the honorable house voiced out their grievance against violence especially that emanating from the NURTW.

Mr Olawale Olayiwola representing Mushin Constituency II, urged his colleagues to as a matter of urgency, look into the matter.

According to Olayiwola, the NURTW issue is a case we should quickly intervene in and we should also critically look at it because their matter is always a delicate one.

He said: “The union members have had transitions in times past and some of them had not been violent.”

“We should ensure adequate security whenever they want to conduct their election and we should counsel them to accept whatever the outcome of their election is,” he said.

On his part, Mr Rotimi Olowo representing Shomolu I, said it was high time the union members were cautioned on their activities.

Olowo said: “We should let them know that we will not continue to condone violence from their end. They cannot continue to kill themselves in the name of electing a chairman.

“We should let them know that if they engage in any other form of violence again, we will proscribe their union,” he said.

On his part, Mr Abiodun Tobun, representing Epe 1, said that the union members had been killing themselves because of the money they were making in the state.

“They are making too much money from the union and that is why they are engaging in violence and killing each other every time.

“It is wrong to have imposed someone on them. They should get a neutral person to be the chairman so that there will not be crisis,” he said.

The Deputy Speaker of the House, Wasiu Sanni-Eshinlokun, said his constituency, Lagos Island harps been in chaos in the past few days because of the clashes between members of the NURTW.

“Lagos Island has been in chaos in the past few days and three persons were killed in the process. Some hoodlums have taken advantage of the crisis within the NURTW to rob and loot traders’ shops.

“They should try and embrace the spirit of sportsmanship. We should send warnings to them to stop the violence,” he said.T

In his ruling, the Speaker of the house, Mr Mudashiru Obasa, said that if they were earning a living from the motor parks, they should be able to maintain peace and orderliness there.

“Their election should not cause crisis and whenever they start their crises, innocent people are always the ones to suffer.

“If they should continue to engage in any crisis, we will not hesitate to place a ban on them. We will write Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, to warn them not to engage in violence, else we will place a ban on them,” he said.
