Convicted king plans independent state

[J0n0]

Pay us R80bn or we’ll quit SA

Napalm comes to mind.

PRESIDENT Jacob Zuma was called on yesterday to apologise to the AbaThembu nation and order the State to pay the tribe R80billion for allowing the humiliation of their monarch.

And the State was also instructed to pay R900million – or else! – to the family of King Buyelekhaya Dalindyebo, who was sentenced to 15 years in prison after being convicted of serious crimes last week.

If the demands were rejected the AbaThembu nation would secede from South Africa and form its own independent State.

Knowing the Eastern Cape, probably a family of 50 inbreds. lol

Not small, Mandela is from the tribe, they are located mostly in the the Transkei.

Yep, as per quoted from Wiki.

The most internationally famous Thembu person is Nelson Mandela, whose father was a high status royal councillor from a junior branch of the Madiba clan.

Clearly they lack the esteem of their most famous member...

The more these "leaders" show their immaturity the more they remind me of the lord of the flies.

Bye bye, good riddance.

Oh and please remember to disconnect and remove all services and priviledges as provided by SA and the SA tax payer. Thankyou.

Wonder how much money the government can actually save by doing this

 

[DreamKing]

my family also a "royal family", we demand............

1) Payment of R900m by the government to the royal family;
2) Compensation of R80bn to be paid to the entire Dream nation for the humiliation they suffered.

if not, I will declare independence from the state

can I ?

 

[JIMMYtheSKULL]

looks like we may just f### the world cup up anways, this is pathetic but then again you reap what you sow. /grabs a handfull of InnerException's popcorn

 

[Brawler]

R80bn WTF.

Let them go, we don't need these people that expect handouts.

 

[lordrage]

Is this not TREASON.

If they secede, surely the Western Cape can too??

 

[rwenzori]

This secession plan is a great idea. Let them take the whole of the Transkei with them. Good riddance and all that.

 

[ToxicBunny]

They can take there little nation and fsck off...

They deserve no money, no reperations, no nothing... Their king broke the law, was tried, convicted and sentenced.... He deserves to spend 15 years in jail.

If they as a "nation" can't accept that they can secede, we'll take our services, our roads, our buildings, everything and they can start from scratch... Lazy fsckers.

 

[chrissy]

What did the king do to get 15 years? Must be serious.

 

[hashbrown99]

Bye bye.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out
