I’m super privileged to live in the footsteps of my father. Vuyisile Mbundu. A giant among us. After exile and a decade at Robben Island, he emerged as VIP protection lead for O.R. Tambo & later Walter Sisulu. Now if you don’t know what this means, it means he volunteered his life to take a bullet if it meant protecting our leaders and our future.
The man is my living legend. Still lives a humble life in Soweto. Never took a cent from public service outside his public service salary.
I remember in 2012 asking him during the tender feast. “Why are we not making money when your friends are billionaires?”. His response was: “Nkuli, I did not join the struggle to make money. I joined it to free my people.”
To this day my hero lives his truth. Therefore I live my truth. It actually comes from my grandmother to think about it.
Truth doesn’t translate into being broke and living in poverty in some kind of altruistic means or trying to scheme stolen money to look better than your peers.
Truth is being able to be your true self no matter what circumstances prevail so your soul serves its purpose.
As to what my life purpose is. I’m peeling the onion day by day…

I see folks saying in 5-years there will be a food shortage in South Africa; there is no evidence pointing to such an outlook. It seems misguided.

The opposite of racist isn't 'colourblind'.
The opposite of racist isn't 'non-racial'.
The opposite of racist isn't 'not racist'.
The opposite of racist is ANTI-RACIST. It is a verb. It is not neutral. It is not afraid of tension. It aims at, and is part of, racial justice.

The Solidarity/@afriforum outrage campaign using the @Dischem leaked CEO memo can be of use to us all.
In essence the fundamental question is why do we need Employment Equity in 2022?
Here’s some ideas.

The “Khoi” were coexisting with the Abantu for generations before 1652
Stop with this “First Nation” kak.
The anti-blackness in this movement is nauseating. The Khoi are black.
1950 really had you thinking Africans saw themselves as separate?

I would like to clarify that @DSBD_SA has never supported me or funded my business Inga Atelier. This is a lie. @DSBD_SA you can’t use my brand to score points so that you look like you doing something. @Stellarated please remove my brand name from your website

Little-known fact…
There is not a SINGLE active speed camera in the City of Joburg (JMPD).🥲 This tender closed on April 13 (it was extended from the original date). It will take some time to be adjudicated and awarded.

You cant be trusted with the blessing if you can’t handle the persecution. Every blessing comes with persecution. With great favour comes skilled & determined detractors. With abundance comes opposition. Remain focussed & keep doing the work that needs to be done. You’re winning

My cousin was amongst people who got killed on Sunday night on 3 April 2022 in Diepsloot by foreigners and we waited for the media to cover the story but they didn't, up until there was a protest and one Zimbabwean killed. He was only 22, shot n burnt #VoetsekSAMedia

If someone who earns 10k gives you R500, he would have given you 5% of his salary. It means that he woke up two days in a month, had his bath and went to work just for you. Learn this Math, know it, it will help you to be grateful. Stop feeling entitled. Be grateful.
