Shem today @CityofJoburgZA I want to give you flowers for a call center agent named Kgopotso and her mom’s name is Kgadi. I know this cos I asked her ukuthi njengoba ahelpful so ukhuliswe ubani. Yaz umntana kaKgadi talked me through every step of sorting out my late mom’s account that was confused in the system with some other person’s and then fixing my own account as well and nje she was so patient and so kind and what she didn’t know she went to find out and came back with constructive advice!
What a brilliant experience and now all is sorted!!! ✔️
Some public servants serve better than others ❤️🫶🏼🙏

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce takes her final bow one last dance on the track. As she steps into this race, we ask God to bless her, bless the team, and bless the legs that carried her to greatness time and time again. May this last one be the best one.

Young girls who are entering Joburg for the first time... be careful.
The men who have been here for years have years of experience. You're not smarter than them. You're not smarter than the women that came before you.
They will buy you drinks and "expect nothing in return"... they know what they are doing. Trust me.
It's so easy for them to not ask for sex coz they'll get it that evening anyways... from other medium term and long term projects they have been investing in before you.
You're a new project. A gamble. Out of every 10... 7 come back all the time... like a loyal dog. Free drinks. Free airtime. No payback. No ask for conversation or sex. Just freebies... who wouldn't want that????
Of the 7 who keep coming back... 5 will eventually cave in and give up the cookie.
He'll be gentle and won't even rush you. He'll take his time and you'll fall... trust me... the guys here are experienced campaigners, you're the novice debutant entering the lion's den, the shark cage, for the first time...
If you can... find Khanyi Mbau interviews on YouTube... she says men will buy you things, but ultimately you're the one who pays...
Stay safe babygirl. Look after yourself. Remember what you were taught at home. Stay in your lane. Go home when finances or school go sideways. Don't get caught up in the flashing lights and become second-hand used goods, with tattoos of every man who has entered you, tattood on your tired, booze-worn face and exploited lips...
Blessers aren't all big, black sweaty men, who call each other "chief" or "cadre" with broken English... some are well-spoken, boys' school alumni with corporate jobs in Sandton, but broken from past relationships and looking to emulate the wolves that stole the loves of their lives and shattered their hearts, in their younger years...
I love you babygirl. Please love yourself. There are good men outchea. I've seen them. Even when they mess up, they work hard to redeem themselves. Invest in these men.
Be careful of wolves in JHB... stay safe. Money is not everything. Your health, heart and mental sanity are worth so much more...
I love you.

I’ve always spoken about how poignant it was that Lewis spent years facing such abuse at a track like Spain — and it subsequently became one of his most successful tracks.
But when I think about how Resistent large factions of F1 & the UK media have been in terms of accepting LH when he arrived in F1, how reticent they’ve been in treating his career with the respect it deserves. All in full contrast to the white Brit’s on the grid who have always received far more sincere affection. Days like this really remind us all where the true power lies.
For Sir Lewis Hamilton to win his record 9th at Silverstone: The home of Motorsport, as the most successful British driver in history, most successful F1 driver in history & unparalleled British sportsman.
The Defiance of that. The poetic justice. The Audacity of a Prodigy to be so generational…to have the Talent to surpass all their idols. The Leadership and Longevity to keep the sport in the palm of his hand. No matter how they try to rewrite their own ending. That kind of success DEMANDS to be seen as it stands in the face of a long history of prejudice & exclusion. Lewis doesn’t just open the door…the first and only Black driver in F1 has made himself at home, alone, at the very pinnacle itself.
Destiny cannot be defeated, only deferred. Only ever delayed👑God Save This King
