Jayceon: Thats massive. 4 stanzas, ours is just 3. What happens to the non-Zulus, Xhosas, Sothos ? Are they forced to sing those parts>? Now I see why most SAns cant learn their anthem well. Lets be honest the lyrics are nicely compiled but the choice of some languages over others was ridiculous. Plus I know you cant sing it all |

freshest4live: Thats a ridiculous constitution you have. So with a written permission the NA then holds a session to debate the submission? It must be all the coups that made transfer of power in Nigeria so complex. In kenya the president simply signs a decree and thats all, the deputy takes over. This happens every time the president leaves the country. Basically in Kenya when you are outside the country you are not president, untill you land back. I know you are shocked We dont have coup mentalities 2 Likes 1 Share |

TayserMahiri:Ras Dumisani has lived in France since like fvcking 1990 or something nobody even new he existed in SA. ALSO it was the French that got him to sing the anthem......Its the responsibility of the host nation to provide a proper singer for the national anthem. Trevor never confirmed anything.....he's a comedian and made a joke of the stereotypical few(as comedians do) that don't understand certain parts of the anthem.....which consist out of 5 languages BTW so not hard to imagine a few people of the previous generation not understanding certain parts of the anthem.................anyway judge for your self: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xV9gbtX1-zA Why only the first stanza?? you think im black? |

Hbuyosh: Dude, you erroneously misunderstand me. kenya, Kenya, Kenya, I always hear about Kenya, when I stumbled on this thread and read everything being said about kenya, I now had this notion that this kenya must be a very beautiful country, but what I saw.......dude, hapuwa, we all are Africans, if you come to Nigeria and see places that are beautiful, you will marvel, but you can never see Nigerians brag about it, so chillax, we should all hold our leaders responsible. I bet you, if not for Apartheid rule and whites in SA, that country would have been a sh!thole. So relax your oars we are not in a war of words of which country is better.....there are even slums in America, so what else are we talking about. 1 Like |

jln115: Ras was joking really but we can blame the weed. Is it strictly that you must sing the stanzas in their specific languages? If so then all generations will struggle. The crowd singing the anthem was awesome esp the SOUTH AFRICA part. Nuh, I dont think you're black, I know you are what Nigerians call oyinbo |

konfused: And u havent answered the question. Are all these pictures of, and info about Kenya false? Isnt US highly developed on tge account of the inner city ghettos , do the squalid slums in Joburg or C. Town make SA less of an upper- middle income country? Just answer those. |

TayserMahiri:Ras was definitely high as fvck.....but he was invited to sing the anthem on one of our local radio stations.....and behold he sung his made up version just as he did in France!! The SA anthem consist out of 1st Stanza Xhosa 2nd Stanza Zulu 3rd Sesotho 4th Afrikaan 5th English In that order no stanza can be sung in another language or interchanged, that's how it is!! And actually 90% of SAn know the anthem by hart..........BUT the majority don't entirely understand what they are singing when it's a verse/stanza that's not their home language, hell even i don't know word for word what im singing in Zulu, Xhosa.....the Sotho part i understand a bit more since i understand Tswana(sort of) which is closely related! all Schools sing the National anthem either every morning before school OR at least once a week before assembly!! So it was basically drilled in to me as a kid.....wouldn't forget it even if i tried!! And yes i guess im a oyinbo.......well one whos family has been in Africa for hundreds and hundreds of years anyway!! 1 Like |

freshest4live:the main purpose of EAC is to protect V.I from surging ocean waves of the Atlantic ocean. so, in order to protect V.I, we had to create a kinda revetment. then LASG had an idea, " why don't we reclaim some lands from the atlantic ocean before revetment? ". don't wanna say much, abeg. |

jln115: hehe, whats up with Ras? Isnt he proud of his SA heritage? Its possible he sings the SA anthem in rasta lingo and you guys just wontt get it. Your anthem is outstanding and ridiculous at the same time. When you switch between stanzas one may be forgiven for thinking its a new song. I think its universal to brainwash schoolkids every morning with the national anthem. It was the same for my early primary school days. They had to make sure you can sing the entire anthem. In fact, failing to recite the whole anthem was sometimes treated as a sign of 'growing horns' lol so you're white, that reminds me I had a white RSA friend back in the days who came visiting with my aunt, who was then working with a south african bank. He was with his mum, who was a close friend to my aunt and a certain Namibian lady. We did a lot of safari |

TayserMahiri: Your not wrong, the anthem is a combination between the nkosi sikelel iafrika hymn and Die Stem(old anthem), it is the only neo-modal national anthem in the world which means it ends in a different key to which it started 1 Like |

TayserMahiri:Having it in 4 stanzas is as short as it can get,it would have been TOO long if it was composed in all 11 official languages.Tayser,SA languages are interrelated,Sothos,Tswana and Pedi have common ancestry,meaning they are a same language but different dialect.There is also Swati,Ndebele which fall under the same group as Zulu and Xhosa,collectively they are called Unguni languages. There are two groups which I feel are left out tho and that is Venda and Tsonga,the two entities are quite difficult to understand.apart from the two aforementioned I think everyone is covered.lol I can sing it all too well and very loud Tayser!! .I can't mess up one of the most electrifying national anthem in the world.You have 3 official languages in Kenya? |

shervydman:Correct, that was the reason, but they also came up with the idea to make it an ideal city for good business along the way, l read this in the past from some of their answers to questions, the type of question asked by mtis, as to why it has to be built for the rich. It was an afterthought, but you are spot on about the initial purpose of Eko Atlantic, and the wall of Lagos built to protect the city and the lsland. |
