Well, I guess an Afrikaans proverb applies here: meng jou met die semels en die varke vreet jou op...

Monkey hand (GT has helped me once more)?

Definition: Isandla Semfene | Mzansi Taal - The South African Lingo Dictionary and Encyclopedia

Mzansi Taal · Isandla Semfene Direct translation: Baboons hand. 1. A hidden helping hand with ulterior motives in a situation. "Did the accused really burn that thing?, isandla semfene la." 2. BMW 5 series E12. The reason for the name is the positioning of the 1st gear to a monkeys hand. Also see:

Of course it depends on the context, as you can see in the link, sometimes it refers to the BMW.

If that's the case; why have we not heard anything about it from any other source?

The DA is just playing around with words, same way they always say the President copied their ideas when he does SONA.

But I am happy for them that the ANC has finally implemented their policy, it's good for the unity of the country, that John should not forget to say, Dankie Cyril.

The US Embassy have not said where their info is from either. I mean, how do we not know that it was not some drunk guy making a prank call? Ive heard of shopping malls being evacuated over things like that.

The US has also seen a rise in any LGBT crimes recently by right wing savages and terrorists so Id imagine they also monitor pride marches.

I wonder if the ANC has really adopted their policy - or just stole their idea.

Yeah, because their intelligence/security agencies are as useless as ours...
