[@NtozonkeNdlela-wb2mz]

Word of wisdom...❤

[@brianmate5117]

Mmusi Maimane spoke well in his speech, respectful but firm. Gayton said the truth, and hopefully, all the other parties that are worried about the partnership between the ANC/DA can be able to stand together and hold both parties to accountability, and fight them when necessary.

Both Musi and Grayton showed so much grace and wisdom. Why can the EFF, MK and the radicals not embrace the chance that God has provided by showing forgiveness and allowing this new government to take us forward positively and not embark on radicalism and disruption and play immature political games. May God or eternal Source Consciousness show the radicals that love to brand so called “white” parties and people as racists, that they need to look deep into their judgmental hearts and clean up their own acts

[@jarraddeneys6048]

Money talks bullshit walks. Finances are imperative to fix this countery, so the white capital is now going to pay salaries after the coffers were looted, which made South Africa bankrupt, so let's work together. Our future looks Bright Thank God Bless South Africa
