I wouldn't be surprised if all ANC MP's receive DSTV Premium free as Calvo Mawela, CEO of Multichoice, is the son in law of Gwede Mantashe.

The ANC is a family business.
Yes we know, the great liberation movement owns Multichoice as well, stop repeating what everyone already knows like it's some big revelation.

Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture stating that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, it is impossible to create a parody of extreme views so obviously exaggerated that it cannot be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of the parodied views.

Without the voice inflection and body language of personal communication these are easily misinterpreted. An /s, has become widely accepted on the net as an indication that "I'm only kidding". If you submit a satiric item without this symbol, no matter how obvious the satire is to you, do not be surprised if people take it seriously.
I am surprised you did not realise it was sarcasm from the author

Do they own Multichoice or is that oke just CEO?
A CEO who is allowed to give free DSTV services to ANC MPs and who is also the son in law of uncle Gweezy? I think it's clear that there's more to it that just a CEO position.

I'll keep reminding all until the ANC comes clean. Which means I'm going to have to remind all for a long time.

And the ANC is/was not a liberation movement at all. If it was, it failed. If it still is, what is it trying to liberate other than the national treasury?

The ANC also doesn't own Multichoice. The CEO is the son in law of Gwede Mantashe.

Suggest you stop twisting my words and show some honesty in your posts.

Heyyy

You back lol. How's your great Bowl Movement today? You take a dump too?
Hey, this is the second time today you're typing "bowl" when you mean "bowel".

Which is all good, but just thought I'd point it out before you put your morning corn flakes in the wrong place.

I know that you like to quote Poe's law, but as you can see multiple people could see instantly that he was being sarcastic. You've also missed sarcasm multiple times before and quoted Poe's Law as a defence.

Perhaps get yourself checked ? See article below

Ah, also running interference for the ANC by deflecting the thread to comment on a commentator instead of discussing the subject.

So, tell me, what do you think of the ANC's inability to pay salaries because SARS has garnishee orders for the money they failed to pay taxes with?

The ANC are a failed organisation. Always have been.
Their inability to pay salaries doesn't surprise me in the least
