Will be cool if she's put back in her position.

It is unlikely to happen though. The ANC test has worked and they now smell blood (or rather control of a budget which means tenders all round.)

It all hinges on which way the EFF vote. But agreed, it's unlikely.

Behold, this garbage. lmao
I HAVE TO FIGHT FOR MY BLACKNESS.

In a country with vast majority black and a black government that makes laws literally putting whites at a disadvantage.

The replies are even funnier. Replace blackness with whiteness and see if people call you racist.

Cyril
The ex Wife
The ex Wife's family
The Nephew by marriage.

So in some convoluted way whatever happens in the nephew by marriage's life is somehow linked to Cyril? If the nephew by marriage gets a job Cyril had organised the job for him, if the nephew by marriage gets a tender it it has something to do with Cyril?

You do realise if we scrutinised everyone we are bound to find some nephew by marriage who is doing something that might or might not be dodgy?

I know you are bright enough to know why this is a desperate attempt but I will wait until it happens with a DA person then I will remind you, I know you are very objective when something relates to the DA, I am a very patient person, sure that moment is going to come soon.

And now tender tycoon with ties to ramaphosa family. Man, they are almost going to have my name soon at this rate. I am sure there is less than six degree of separation between President & I.

Why? is overindulgence on KFC frowned upon?

Fishy tenders?

[mojoman]

All the contracts were under R500  000, and were therefore signed off by the Tembisa Hospital CEO instead of going out to tender.

Skinny jeans....

Just cant help themselves...

Gwede says no...you can eat as much as you like...

 

[PrimeSteak]

Why?

Don't you think the usuals here on myBB and elsewhere, will not insist even more on the "KFC StreetWise 2" meme because of this?

is overindulgence on KFC frowned upon?

Well, probably when your boss says you got poisoned but you just got some indigestion from KFC...
