Anyone who is watching or who has watched this needs to share this every and anywhere. We need to catch a serious wake up. Don't get swayed by propaganda. Penuel, you doing great work. Keep it up. But also stay safe man...

[@maketamokoena6878]

Masterclass.. basically people of the land are the spectators in all the spectrums of this country because all the foreigners are the ones taking everything that's ours. Great video Pen

[@EasyMoney-p8k]

Very powerful thumbnail. Thanks for calling out the hypocrisy

[@sphiwemaseko2268]

Penuel vandag you have spoken, You touched me bro!!. You spoken my language. I'll let what you've shared to is sink!! I'll share this and I'll think hard coz we must do something

There are ALWAYS but ALWAYS invisible POWERFUL forces at work behind every illegal activity that generates significant financial gain. Even the ones that are supposed to be on our side like politicians, high ranking police officials and the likes are ALWAYS but ALWAYS involved.

These are the type of videos we missed.. Thanks Black Pen 👊🏾👊🏾

[@NelsonBK-t2j]

foreigners aside ) ( as blk south Africans we know the red type around the mining industry and how hard it is to get all those licenses. now my question is if you take it upon yourself to benefit from the wealth of this country you are seen as a criminal but at the sametime the big western companies come here to take the same resources to better their countries. so my question is when will the locals benefit from the wealth of this country ?

[@OctaFxPrivateTrading]

Awesome content as usual. Thanks bro! May you continue to grow.

Great video Pen, if we could have many people with such a perspective, who think outside the box and don't just run with what the media feeds them then we could be half way towards changing our Country and Continent at Large..

[@MarciaNgcobo]

Yoo guys kuningi.. Where do we start to sort these thinks out.. But thank you for always opening our minds and looking at it in many angles.. People we trust are failing us but they are also captured.. We need to make a change even if we don't live through it but for our kids to be free, we also though we are free after democracy but now we know we are not and our lives are a solid proof of that.. The rich are getting richer, poor are getting poorer.. It's start with us at the voting stage then okunye kuyalandela.. Our neighbouring counties are doing it.. We can do it too.. Change is really needed..

Ja, think you are right. Just make it a free for all. If you find valuable minerals, just start mining. No worries about land and mining rights, legal exports, company taxes, health and safety. I mean what could go wrong. !!!! FREE FOR ALL - WOOP WOOP -

I bought rotten chicken from KFC twice. The second time, I refused to stay quiet, causing a scene, and I realized that this seems to happen at KFC locations in predominantly Black neighborhoods. They offered to refund my money, but I told them, 'I gave you money for food, and all I want is for this to stop.

You know Sir, I confess. I just looked at the video title and thought: Are you suggesting because Colonialists did it, 'WE MUST ALSO DID IT' as Lennox Sebe would have phrased it. I swear, why don't we just quantum-leap back to the 17th & 18th centuries and settle matters back then and get it done with. Because, hai! Some reasoning is just too much.🤦‍♂️

[@ColouredXzaza]

We used to Prosecute them in the Free State allllll the time. I became increasingly fatigued by these Zama Zama cases due to their regularity and the accused persons always appeared in large groups. I HATED those matters WITH A PASSION. They showed little fear of going to jail plus the problem grew larger. This (jail) is clearly not an effective deterrent.

[@tearyb]

I beg to differ. It’s not a human rights violation. They have a choice to come up and face the music. They are deliberately starving themselves to avoid arrest. I have no sympathy for criminals. There are many unemployed people that do not resort to crime. Who needs a corrupt society.

Great movie. Watched it several times. A fundamental depiction of what was/still is happening in some African countries. The casting also did justice to their roles❤

[@mck5549]

What you forgot to mention about the checkers scooter drivers is that 80% of South Africans drop out within the first month, but the foreigners do the work, and many south africans make use of delivery services like checkers 60 and Mr delivery. So we are hypocritical, its ok to have foreigners when it suits us and not when it doesn't. So what to do because our people don't want menial jobs like mining and delivery? Are you willing to stop ordering take out? You also need to look at it from a business owners' perspective, we claim that they hire zimbo's because of lower wages, but its not the case, they hire zimbo's because zimbo's work hard, out people are always tired, looking to party, but we are not honest enough to address this. Would you hire our people if you were running a business? Be honest

Theres no such thing as Black Market in Diamonds or Precious Metals esp Gold The real anger directed against zama zamas, I suspect is, the market exposes the grotesque nature of the industry that benefits the very people and countries that cry foul Pump in the smoke, and see what pets comes out Which are the multinational corporations are complaining? Why is the gov not prioritizing that 6000 old mines, to benefit the economy of our BRICS country? All the answers leads to the very questions many are afraid to ask.. We need to rise as a individuals to hold our government accountable On Spazas... Advanced cash and Cary in Pretoria North... exained to us in 2016 that, the stock is bought from Jew suppliers to Muslim retailers who also sell to Foreigners Spazas in bulk These are same products as Makro/ Kit Kat/ etc..

What is Zama Zamas?

[@tumweonlycommentary2797]

Zama zama is actually a South african nickname which If I'm not mistaken means luck or winning something *I forgot* but their illegal miners..

@ Yes, I actually know the simple meaning of the name, in the Zulu language, it simply means Zama (try) I just couldn't comprehend it in this context. Now I get it. I appreciate. Cheers 👏🏼
