Baliv254: tanzanians always brag to us in their forum how they saved you from apartheid and how they saved many other African countries
they deserve recognition for also giving you a national anthem
Them and Nigerians have a bizarre sense of humour
Grab a bowl of popcorns and enjoy....
Did you know that during Apartheid Nigeria sent it's military to South Africa to fight against the nuclear armed SADF? I know it's hard to reconcile how a military that can't contains bare-foot bandits like Boko Haram and Fulanis herdsmen single-handedly defeated the most powerful army at the time to free black South Africans.Hard to fathom,but believe it - they lifted the attention from Biafra civil war that was happening in their backyard at that time and dedicated their time to fighting an army with the oldest airforce in the world .Sounds like a fable out of Dr Seuss's remarkable catalogue I know...
The end? no no no! Just when we thought Nigeria could not extend her act of benevolence further than she already had...the Nigerian government thought that sending their soldiers with hi-tech military equipment wasn't enough to get helpless black South Africans out of the tight grip of Apartheid.The Nigerian government being the altruistic government that it was decided to deposit $60 billion into some mysterious ANC bank account to help South Africans with food,education and travel documents,even though this money could not be traced,South Africans benefitted greatly from it.
Kazikazi: But funny enough, you have a Khoi language on your coins! But you can't allow the same language to be sung loud on your antherm? And you bring excuse of all khoisans have adopted Afrikaans? Its funny to see a real owner of a land being excluded from forming a national antherm.Truth be told,all you Zulus,Boers,and a cultureless colored man should vacate that land a give a Khoisan his land,that will be good for a humble,harmless khoi man to hunt freely from cape to Limpopo.
Kazikazi: So those khoisans who went to protest to your president were stupid? Are u trying to say a khoi man he no longer have a language? FYI, a khoi man is a real south African. The rest of you are just invaders. Your antherm should be sung in khoi mans language with all those clicking sounds. But you decided to leave the real south African man out of your antherm,you went ahead and stole a TZ national antherm which we registered it in UN long long time ago.
Kazikazi: Where is a khoisan in that antherm? At least you should have given a khoi man a chance to put few lines of his clicking sounds! You know,that could have been a coolest antherm ever
quote author=Kazikazi post=87717529]There is no need for u to have a head just chopped it off.You can't think.
FYI.. Swahili is a mixture of all African languages found in east Africa with some foreign languages like Arab,Portuguese, Indian,English,dutch,Italian,etc. So if u use Swahili,that means you have included everyone including a hadza and masais.
But SA is strange. You have one antherm which is sung in each paragraph by a different language found in SA,But a khoi man isn't represented.A real citizen isn't there[/quote]There's an old saying...better to keep your mouth shut and let everybody think you are stupid than open it and prove them right.
Just be honest.You never picked up a book your entire life.
XhosaNostra: I forgot to add Paul Ndlovu of Famba Moyeni & Tsakane fame. I grew up hearing that he died & was a ghost/zombie in the streets of Soweto So every time I heard his songs, I'd get an uneasy feeling I still don't listen to his music at night lol.
XhosaNostra: Oh, I love this song! It was one of my father's favourites. He'd play these kind of songs on Sunday mornings while polishing his work boots aka amariff
Anyway, I find it interesting that most people associate this kind of music with their uncles. Every comment on YT is about an uncle, especially one that is no longer alive.
Yeah with a huge Tempest boom box? It was a must have for every household back in the day.
True! thank God the one that got us into Lazarus is still alive and healthy.
And if it weren't for the mighty Tanzania Apartheid would have lasted until 2000? ...I recall you said that.I'm not reading those 1000+ words links,wena just tell me what you did.
XhosaNostra: Why is that part a joke to you? Is Afrikaans not a South African language? Because it is no longer pure Dutch, it's heavily mixed with other South African languages. Many people make this mistake of associating Afrikaans with Apartheid as if there were no Afrikaans-speaking freedom fighters & political activists who died for this country. On those grounds alone, their language deserves to be part of the South African anthem because whether we like it or not, Afrikaans is part of South African culture & without South Africa there would be no Afrikaans. Where would township slangs be without Afrikaans words like "Ek sê, voetsek etc"? Similary, what would Afrikaans people use in place of "Babelaas, Eish etc"? These cultures intertwined & influenced each other over the centuries. Some of you are just lastig qha, niyas'pita.
I saw that part and I was just too despondent to explain.Anyway,thank you for putting things into perspective.
Acadavah: And I just realised you are deluded. Tanzania national flag(1) is being used since June 1964 while the South Africa flag at the time was this pic (2). The current south Africa flag(3) started being used in 1994
No, I didn't get the chance, my sister was also very strict lol. The only time I got to "live" was when I went back home for the June & December holidays Those were the only instances I had some seks & some dranks In the Eastern Cape, June & December are boozy months-initiation season. Things get a little wild because the grown ups are busy, attending so-&-so initiation. We're left home alone & one thing leads to another.
[quote author=Mzal3ndo post=87673697][/quote]How did your insignificant country end Apartheid? offering support and putting an abrupt end to something are two different things.
Kazikazi: You don't own anything. We are the owners.I can't understand you guys,how can you get freedom on 94,and you go ahead and use somebody's antherm which was used since 1961? Why didn't u use something else which u have like kwaito? Yes,you could have chosen one of those kwaito songs and make a national antherm! Do u know how your kwaito antherm could have sounded like? Pu pu pu pu pu pu pu. Africa. Pu pu pu pu pu africa
I just realised it's not only the national anthem you stole.Did you also try to steal SA colours to design that handkerchief you call a flag?
She goes to ZCC? You should go for the prophecies, they're always 100% accurate & free
I remember one time there was a night service & I didn't wanna go, but my mom forced me to go. Jace, as soon as I entered the church yard, a prophet came to me & we knelt as he told me the "tea". He told me that I didn't wanna come to church that night, the reason was this & that. All true, btw. One thing about their prophets though, if you're not used to them, you might get scared. Some roar like lions or make snorting noises. One time went to church with my cousin. He was still a little boy then, about 6. When he heard them he got scared & started crying He never went to church with us again lol.
No I'm not
No,she goes to IPC and we also use to go when we were little.
Wow that's interesting.so what was the actual reason you quit the church?
