Mr Man South Africa is an English speaking country as Cameroon is , you understand my point ?. South Africa gained independence from Britain way before countries like Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda etc. The main language then became Afrikaans and the indigenous languages, unlike the countries I mentioned that have had English as their official language for generations. So it is disgraceful for a country whose main language is English to have so many people who are still struggling with pronouncing basic words . South Africans until today mainly use English when talking to outsiders . Our public institutions as you know ,have everything written in our various languages. I'm not saying we don't speak nor write English but it doesn't carry the same status it does in your country.

Did you just give us advice on tourism ? . Dude , stop that nonsense . Mandela is one of the attractions to South Africa as English is one of our official languages. Having tourist attractions means nothing when no one knows nor gives a damn about them, take your own advice and get creative on how you can best sell them to compete with ours.

Ibrahimanis:
Jumia is Nigerian though.

forgiveness:
Do you mean Babatunde Olatunji, Sikiru Adepoju, Lekan Babalola etc are British citizens? Girl stop lying here.

Seal's father is a Nigerian Brazilian. Infact, It was his father that taught him how to eat Nigerian food. Don't display your ignorance here by depending on Google.

You sounded like one hypocrite in the first bolded.

Miriam Mkeba was nobody until she left the shores of South Africa and met one Harry Belafonte (product of foreign system) who mentored her and also became her colleague. The same way Sade Adu and Seal were nobody until they met Oyinbo.

Her first record was produced by the same foreign system in America, hypocrite!

Her Grammy award was Harry Belafonte's (foreign system) handy work and not of or from the land of Zulus. stop lying.


The same way Ladysmith Black Mambazo gained international recognition, or permit me to say, were brought to lime light in 1986 by Paul Simon (foreign system) after he brushed them up despite the fact that they have been singing since 1950s as local champions. Bhuhahahaha!


They could not export their local Zulu music abroad until oyinbo came on board and took them of the Zululand to the same Britain and America where they recorded their hit song Shaka Zulu. Another lie bursted.

Is that not another product of foreign system you claimed Nigerians used before winning Grammy awards? Hypocrite!

Hugh Ramapolo Masekela who was first nominated in 1968 for Grammy award was another benefactor of foreign system song 'Grassing in the grass.' written by Philemon Hou. Bhuhahahaha!

Now, who claiming what is not hers?

Did I hear you say Miriam Mkeba was the first African to commercialize music? Bhuhahahaha! You are showing gross ignorance.

Ok, Can you please explain or tell me the year she commercialized music?

Let me give you that benefits of doubt. Explain!

You mean Nigeria started getting recognised with an award in 1990? Bhuhahahaha!

Where was Miriam Mkeba when I.K Dairo won Member of the British Empire in 1963 to become the first African musican to be honoured with such award? This is 'owing to his originality and the improvement he gave to the Juju Music - an improvement, an innovation, which can hardly be forestalled by any living artiste'. This is an honour higher than the Grammy award.

As you can see, Ik Dairo was honoured and recognised before all those newbies in the Africa music industry.

Besides, Sunny Ade was the first African musician to be nominated for Grammy award twice. Just come out of your Zulu world and learn fast.

Femi kuti has been nominated 4 times for Grammy award ahead of the names in the bolded. Then, who are those funny funny names in the bolded?

These two didn't need foreign system to get their first recognition. Unlike your foreign system products you listed.

Now, Show me your nominees from 60s to 80s, aside the ones I already pointed out. Can you?

Let me wait while you cure and emancipate yourself from groose ignorance.

Your media has feed you with fallacies and it was through that you wanted to impose your songs on us through DSTV.

I am waiting.

Are you saying South Africa is not an English speaking country ? . Last time I checked it was only Zulus and boers who can't speak proper English in South Africa. Stop misrepresenting the truth .

Nigeria has many great tourist attractions , you are clearly clueless about the subject . Make Google your friend . Maybe you guys should stop misusing the name of a dead man to market your country , get creative and find something new to sell.

tlann:
kazikazi will come here to sing how they will overtake kenya economically soon just look at mwanza airport that is an airstrip

Yobeezy:
Exactly! I'd rather visit Accra than Nigeria

tlann:
he is a fool don't mind him his brain has been eroded by magufuli kq has 40 planes some are leased and some were paid in cash if you outline the number of planes kq bought in cash they beat air tz 4 planes

Lionessza6:
You also protested when MTV was playing 70% South African songs in Nigeria. We also did the same with Americans , they could afford to pay a lot more than our struggling artists for the publicity and airplay at our stations. After the public broadcasters made it compulsory for majority of the content to be ours, our music industry picked up again and more of our own people are appreciated and supported more. It's not a bad thing to complain against unfair competition. Just saying.

Lionessza6:
I'm afraid she will tell me I'm settling for less by not looking for an oga who will buy me a whole bar at the club , only for him to go back and share a bachelor flat with 8 other men . Swahili does sound very familiar when I listen to it . Chisa means the samething .

Yobeezy:
Africa's best airlines are Ethiopian airlines,Egypt air and Kenya Airways respectively.
By the way,how many fleets does air Tanzania have?4 only
While KQ has 40 fleets,stop doing some injustices to KQ.
Air Tanzania will take decades to reach where KQ is today,a bitter fact.

Yobeezy:
Where Air Tanzania is currently was where KQ was 2 decades ago.

rvp20183:
They are copying them internally by crushing competition in domestic routes...fastjet is basically dead thanks to unfair competition from Air Tanzania.Ethiopia were in serious trouble few years ago until they outsourced the management.KQ has strategic management with KLM.Air TZ ran by Magufuli is going to burn lots of money and nosedive again.

Lionessza6:
You are an idiot of note . What do you think tourism is about if not ; the people , nature, history , art of the country ? . You keep on exposing your own illiteracy here. Mandela is the most famous person to ever come out of Africa, you think we wouldn't milk his name for the betterment of our country? You must be high . It's not our problem that your country has not been able to come up with a proper scam that doesn't hurt anyone . We made it a custom for any famous celebrity including politicians to come and touch Mandelas hand for a fee whenever they are experiencing problems; at home , work or about to lose elections or fame . Now that he is dead, we have created a platform for them to come and sing for his corpse , while willingly luring their fans here to come and touch his statue .

Why would we be known for our "English " when English is not even a dominant language in our country ? . We have 11 official languages and English is the 4th popular. You are an English speaking country yet most of you guys sound like mine- workers when you use the language , you should have developed your Hausa , Igbo and Yoruba . Our English is good enough to invite the world to our country in numbers , and we didn't even kill our own languages to promote it unlike you .

If you never got the chance to bring your money here to kiss the hand of god , we can arrange for you to visit his prison cell or kiss his statue for half a million rands , I promise you that everything in your life will go well . No need to work, just give us your money and you will succeed in life .

Kazikazi:
Its not fully revived.most planes are not yet delivered from manufacturers. Once we get them,they will definitely fly.remember we paid cash for all planes.No lease.no sub lease

tlann:
those are cheap routes and many east africans cannot afford kq that is why kq invented low cost carrier jambojet

Kazikazi:
Is the same,the only difference is south Africa don't roast goats..

Kazikazi:
No dreamliner which lands in Entebbe. A dreamliner will go to mumbai ,China and Thailand. Currently there are some local training routes it goes like mwanza,not Entebbe.

rvp20183:
Really

Lionessza6:
Just checked now ,yes it's the same thing. So nyama = meat in Swahili too ? . What does choma mean ?.

Yobeezy:
I also usually wonder
If you ask an average Kenyan which countries they would like to visit in Africa,they'll quote either south Africa,Algeria or Egypt.
The most advanced nations in the continent but if you ask a Nigerian,Kenya won't miss in the list of African nations they would wish to visit.

tlann:
yes the most important route

Iwantslavesgone:
You are an illiterate noise maker. Your tourism is because of Mandela name , without his name your shyt country is nothing . The white people come there for Mandela We are not hungry like you, we don't need to show people animals to survive , like you do. Nigeria remains the most rich country in Africa. How do you fools even communicate with whites , South Africa is not known for good English , like Nigeria, Zimbabwe and Uganda . Foolish.

Lionessza6:
LOL, you planning on a visit ?. Give me a ring so I can take you to a local chisa nyama .

Kazikazi:
If I call you a Sonko head will you refuse? You omitted that part of 37 passengers.You omitted officials comments.Then you bring a tweet! Really? Whom are you trying to fool? Sonko head again..

Our airline is giving goosebumps to kiberans. Good.

tlann:
it will push kq out of business very soon

tlann:
air tz has only 4 planes it is either the dreamliner or the Airbus that carried 6 passengers to Entebbe

mtisTheQubit:
overbooked flight ehh

tlann:
have you ever seen mwanza international airport you will faint ;DD ni kama store ya cashew nuts

tlann:
which plane flies to Entebbe the Airbus okay then let me correct myself the air tz airbus carried 6 passengers to entebbe

tlann:
but let us stick to the discussion leave Ethiopian airlines alone let us argue about air tz having 4 planes wants to remove kq from business and how air tz carried 6 passengers in a dreamliner to Entebbe

mtisTheQubit:
so true..i think dominating means yapping their big mouth so guys can notice them..i might be right you know
