Panic button

These analysts are clowns 🤡 then

People must leave Jacob Zuma alone to enjoy his old age.S.A Judiciary has sealed Ramaphosa's CR17 bank statements and no one cared to demand further action.Again,there is this PhalaPhala scandal,people appear to be tired to talk about any more.But Zuma seems to be an easy target.

agggg let the old man sing and dance I don't like him but I also don't like what apartheid did to us .

I have my doubts whether the court can send him back to jail, I think that judgement to send him back to jail will be set aside for he didn't put himself on parole someone did, he would be seen as a victim of circumstances.

Chaaa guys couldn’t you wait for Monday you’re 🙄
