No, scammer and drug peddler come to mind first. Lately, the word Japagerian has been added to the lexicon. And also guy who can't build road or electricity (even if you give him 60 whole years to do so).
Savage! Please, stop. You seem to know Nigeria more than people living there.

God bless Africa.

What is Tweede Nuwe Jaar?

Tweede Nuwe Jaar, which literally means “Second New Year”, is rooted in the slave history of Cape Town in South Africa. Slaves were only allowed a single day off work a year, and they used the opportunity to celebrate. The tradition is alive and kicking today, and the annual event sees Cape Town bursting into a carnival of colour, music, dancing, and parades.

When is Tweede Nuwe Jaar?

Tweede Nuwe Jaar happens on the 2nd of January each year.

What to expect?

Tweede Nuwe Jaar is one of the biggest events in the city, attracting hundreds of performers and thousands of spectators. The performers, known as the Kaapse Klopse, don colourful suits, face-paint, hats, and parasols. They strut their stuff through the streets, with brass instruments and drums, in the traditional ghoema musical style. The centre of Cape Town becomes a huge street party for the day. It’s loud, colourful, and a great deal of fun for the whole family.

Where to go?

The performers march their way through many streets in the city, especially in the historic District Six area. It’s not hard to find them: just listen out for the lively music and singing! The Bo-Kaap (colourful houses), Grand Parade, and District Six area are the best places to catch the performers in the city.

Once the march comes to an end, the troupes and various Cape Malay Choirs head to the Green Point stadium where the competition for the winning troupe begins in earnest.
Slave Trade in South Africa?
I thought the Dutch ( Afrikaans) and the British came as settlers, later fought and subdue the Zulus, Xhosa, Hottentots, etc to take over their ancestral homelands and established Apartheid.
The Indians and Jews came as settlers as well, but did not grab lands from the Blacks .

Big Brother who doesn't have a supermarket or retail brand worth mentioning like Game, Pep, Truworths and MrP, but rather does his Christmas shopping in smelly markets near gutters where agberos relieve themselves in public view grin grin grin Lol, and all those stores have left Big Brother coz he's broke, with your one half full plastic bag that you use for selfies.

AcneAhnie, please don't drag your country down with you in your futile attempt to diss SA. I make minced meat out of amateur trolls like u.
Damn!

The Indians came as indentured labour to work on sugar plantations. In Cape Town you'll find a race called coloured, most were brought in from Malaysia and Indonesia as slaves.

I agree. AcneAhnie ruined it with her initial comments - she set the tone for trolls to come running here.

But the good news is she's badly bruised in ICU and eating through a Shoprite straw right now cool

You can start by referring AcneAhnie and that other insignificant one to your therapist. He's familiar with healing WannaHowzit Lashings-ia as he's been treating you for years now.
Re: Tweede Nuwe Jaar: South African Tradition Called 'The Second New Year' (Pictures by WannaHowzit(op): 3:18pm On Jan 03, 2023
I wonder why the mods took down all the deathblow posts I dealt AcneAhnie where she was taking selfies with a lonely half-empty Shoprite bag in a mall and then she had the audacity to tell me Big Brother is helping out SA.

Turned out that plastic bag just had her Christmas lunch (which hit frontpage) - rice, ponmo and Fanta, and the straw that's she's now drinking from in ICU.

Wow, from a whole day of Christmas shopping shocked

True. Most people here are unhappy people. They throw stones at everyone without provocations.
Anyway, have a pleasant 2023.
