Even in the inferno, the school is beautiful ditto the surrounding areas. South Africa is really developed and clean, no Nigerian city or school comes close.

Truth be told.

Queenslander:
Morgan Freeman is also really good!! Will Smith too ✔️

Will Smith?

heendrix:
It's like that thr out Africa even in SA, black development after independence is 5%

How did you arrive at 5%?

Yes I have seen them and I don't like his acting.

Guess we can rest the convo.No need going back & forth over each other's opinion

Ovulo:
Most book in that library are piece of lies concocted by the Europeans which is one of their great tools in enslaving Africa...

Am only concerned about the students that's all,not even the building nor the crap books in the library.

There are many books there written by Africans.

I said GOOD!!! I know he's done other movies.

He was not good in those movies? Did you even watch them?

khiaa:
He hasn't did anything good since then.

- Jerry Maguire...?
- Chill Factor...?
- Few Good Men...?


He's not the greatest but "suck"?

TMKsouth:
They're getting a lot of love online.

They deserve it.

TMKsouth:
I just heard the mayor Dan Plato now saying two lower floors of the library had fire resistant doors so they were not burnt. But says priceless artworks were destroyed.

Also that 4 people received treatment and one is in a critical condition in hospital.

Kudos to the rescuers for fending for human lives first.There's nothing more precious than that.

Take it back .....ice cube is one of the best when it comes to acting ......

Not to all of us.

TMKsouth:
They'll come under a lot of criticism if they don't have backup, considering their global status. But I see they have a digital library collection but I can't tell how large it is.

At least not all is lost.

plaindealer:
Abeg, how much den spend on this your village keke ambulance?

Is that an EMS van?

TMKsouth:
Shocking, but I had to laugh at the bolded bit though Which university would you have preferred got burnt?!

p.s. The UKZN library was torched in 2016, but it was by students.

I would not prefer for any university to burn.I'm actually more concerned about the burnt information in the books and least so about the structure because I know that can be rebuilt within a short period of time.


I remember that,and that's my first thought in my mind was humans even in this incident.

TMKsouth:
Lol

Not trying limit another man's hustle but I feel he should have stuck to music.

When I saw this on the news I thought it was an act of humans,turns out it was mother nature.Why that university though?? That's a South African historical monument

Hope the information in the burnt books was saved digitally somewhere and can be reprinted

Cuba don't belong on that list because he sucks.
Tyler don't belong because he sucks
Idris is a great actor but he's British not American.
LL Cool J suck as an actor but he's a great rapper.
Steve Harvey suck as an actor and comedian.

Denzel is number 1.

Everyone else on the list are cool.

Cuba Gooding Jnr sucks? you must have not watched Boyz n the Hood

Denzel Washington for me,dude kills every role he plays.He was a beast in Training Day


I just don't know what Ice Cube is doing on this list though.

TMKsouth:
Yes he did, but when you act like an idiot you ruin your own legacy. Same thing with Msholozi, his supporters say the first term was brilliant.

He liked the sound of his own voice way too much,and that's the problem is had with him.Even hardcore Republicans found him off-putting sometimes.

TMKsouth:
Fox has more viewers though and they are conservative. People can tell when something is unjust, it's just a human instinct.

Fox is not a viable network either.That's another way of looking at it but sometimes people act based on sentiments before they even get a full story.

Yeah, Trump flip-flopped on many issues, he was a populist and never a true Republican and supported policies based only on retaining power. Wherever the wind blew that's where he flew off to. I'm not aware of Bernie's track record though, he's never appealed to me.

Yep,sometimes he come across as an American version of Malema but apparently there's few things he got right while he was president.

Aflix:
I'm surprised that Americans are not calling out Joe Biden like they did to Trump What changed

Because most Americans are mentally programmed by news networks like CNN that seems to be controlling the narrative.

TMKsouth:
Dude, the Democrats want to do away with guns or tighten gun-laws but the Republicans are dead set against it. Trump didn't even wanna hear about it, says it's their constitutional right (2nd Amendment or something). Obama atleast banned bump stocks which turn riffles into automatic weapons.

Donald Trump just flip-flopped on the issue because I remember in 2019 he promised to put stricter gun laws in place.I don't know what changed.By the way,Bernie Sanders (a Democrat) was pro guns at one point and even voted against the waiting period and background check,but CNN never report on anything that will dent the image of the Democrats.

Trump is out of office,mass murderers are still shooting people.The Democrats were having a field's day smearing Trump's name when this madness was happening under Trump's presidency.

TMKsouth:
Their economy does really good when the price of crude oil is high, but falls into recession when the price of oil drops. So they are overreliant on oil (as the largest producer in Africa). So they spend a lot on imports but little extra cash is coming in.

I know their entertainment industry brings in money too but the state is not good at collecting taxes and so loses that revenue. Foreign direct investment is also lacking coz of the security issues and poor infrastructure, as you've seen with Twitter and Shoprite recently.

So, I'm also at a loss like you are. Where do they get money from? Maybe one of them could assist us with your question.

So basically they are one commodity reliant economy.Does the entertainment industry really count?

TMKsouth:
Countries should strive to be exporters rather than importers. Being an importer means you produce very little things of your own and have to buy from others. There's nothing wrong with importing as long as your exports (what you produce) are more than what you bring in, or more valuable in dollar terms.

Not really good for the economy.So how is it that Nigeria claims to have the highest GDP while on the other hand they are the biggest importer in Africa? I need clarity on that.

Hmm
