Handed over to the Hawks? Well that's that settled then. Nothing to see here move along... 🤦🏻‍♂️

Another billion Rand tender scheme coming up for the cadres for the new year. Patricia going to pull another border fence spectacular.

SAPS security withdrawn from Parliament. No SAPS intelligence about or pre-emptive response to the KZN looting in July. Certain Minister has a 3hr long meeting with Zuma in Feb. Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.

It would be great to be so prompt, in catching passenger trains saboteurs, as well. Could it be it's because our parliamentary honchos and their families don't and won't ride trains.

Wrong suspect. It was Guy.

The suspect stayed? Really... 😂 Well... It's better because it's not like the police would've caught him.

RSA Government is full of games!!!
