Fighting for one's bread and women in RSA ?
It is very hard to imagine a United States of Africa.It is hard to imagine real lasting cordial ties between people of Africa among themselves if one is kept reminded of our hatred for one another by the xenophobia among the poor of south Africa.It is not possible to justify it but for me it is very easy to understand.It is not unique to south Africa at all and the more we come to accept this truth the better.It is a pure African problem based on hate for one another.The hatred for each other that we see in south Africa now and in Africa in general is based on very important factors .One a natural factor and three of which are man made and foreign.The realistic difference that makes A

Beware the Heroes
I have tried in vain to get the records of trials of Robert Gabriel Mugabe which got him 10 years and more in the jail of a white man.I have not been as successful as I have been ,say with the Mandela cases.I am well aware these are two different people but the principle I am looking at is ,to their respective supporters they are almost deity.I am yes, trying to compare their credentials,their personal claims to heroism.

The honourable Thamsanqa Mahlangu and phone theft.
During his time of being bombarded Deputy minister mahlangu had arrows coming from all directions.One I remember tried to link the youthful politician with a criminal township gang some of you might remember,Star force the notorious Nkulumane gang.I did not know the membership of that gang but I suspected the suggestion was totally a fabrication.Now that he has been acquitted I would like to say a few things.Personally I think there was a case of some kind , blown out of proportion and in that way out of the court.He nicked a mad man's phone,reminding me of a village Granny called VaChapungu some years back.My mum was on teacher duty at some school where she taught.People used t
