The world's greatest crime remains unpaid. Over 12 million Africans were forcibly removed from their homes during the transatlantic slave trade. The UN has declared slavery "the greatest crime against humanity" yet every European nation abstained from the vote. To this day, no African nation has obtained any form of reparations for the Atlantic slave trade. What about Germany and Namibia? In 2021, Germany agreed to pay Namibia €1.1 billion for the Herero-Nama genocide. But the deal falls short of delivering justice, an apology was negotiated instead of made upfront. It avoids legal consequences, the atonement stops short of conceding legal liability and this was for a specific genocide, not the broader colonial project AU Chairperson, Youssouf delivered these remarks during his address at the 2025 Africa Day commemorative event. "It is unacceptable that in the 21st century, the African people still wait for acknowledgement, restitution, and repair for centuries of dehumanisation and economic plunder." And he made it clear that "Reparations are not charity. They are a right, rooted in international law."

"They are reproducing poverty..." The frustration is real and deeply valid, no basic services for years despite paying his bills. He is dealing with a total state failure no and systemic municipal chaos. But notice how the blame immediately shifts from the municipality to "invaders from Limpopo." Tribalism and regionalism become the easy scapegoat, distracting from the fact that the state completely collapsed on its obligations.

EXPOSED: Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi tried to frame the Brooklyn station standoff as an active war where IDAC was panicking over fake SAPS warrants. Kaizer Kganyago rubbished the claims, the only legitimate warrants issued were for the generals under investigation Dumisani Khumalo & Madondo. Rushing to the station to confront rumors is a transparent attempt to flex power and muddy the waters of a real corruption case. The SAPS top brass needs to answer to the law, not rewrite it. #SAPS #IDAC #Corruption

Any Black person who claims to learn anything constructive from AfriForum is either delusional or lying to their followers. That organisation peddles nothing but hatred, division, and a recycled colonial playbook. And now we see xenophobes openly joining forces with racists, united not by love for South Africa, but by a shared contempt for Black and foreign lives alike. Sinawo Tambo didn't just debate, he dissected this toxic alliance on SABC News, exposing their weak evidence, their court losses, and their desperate fundraising off fear. This is the clarity we need. No more sugarcoating.

Bheki Cele lays it bare: Inmates enter illiterate and leave with "PhDs," while the victims' children are kicked out of school, their homes repossessed, forced into poverty & called "Amaphara." Meanwhile, the system tracks every perpetrator for care, but there's NO follow-up for victims. Even the children of fallen police officers are abandoned to a R350 grant. This isn't just a broken system, it's a betrayal. This truth must be the catalyst for radical change. #AdHocCommitee

This was the moment i realized: Lt. Gen. Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi doesn’t do theatrics, he exposes truths. No fear. No surrender. For years, he’s called out corrupt Ministers who care more about profits than people. On July 11, 2022, Mkhwanazi revealed that during the #JulyUnrest or #ZumaRiot multiple Ministers frantically called him, not to protect citizens, but to shield The South African Breweries from threats. Their priority? Investments over lives. Yet, not a single journalist demanded names. Not one questioned why these Ministers ignored the #PhoenixMassacre where Black lives were slaughtered, while rushing to save a brewery. Their silence was deafening. #NoFear #TruthToPower. #FamilyMeeting. #NationalShutDown

Lt. Gen. Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi: "If it was me holding the power, I would say alcohol must be banned, especially in townships and rural areas, alcohol is the primary "generator" of violent crime in South Africa." Julius Malema: "Alcohol is a destroyer of families and that there is no happiness in alcohol and nothing good comes out of it." He also called for a total ban on alcohol advertising to mirror the tobacco ban.

🤡 THE MASK IS COMPLETELY OFF! This isn't crime fighting, it's witness silencing. Prim warned that McKenzie is using his political influence to bury the truth about him being a drug dealer and about the formation of PA. If the claims are "baseless," why are you so desperate to isolate him in a maximum security cell where he's allegedly being tortured and denied food? You don't orchestrate transfers for "madmen" unless they have receipts you're terrified of.
