Heartbreak As "Xenophobic" Johannesburg Mayor Resigns by TMKsouth: 8:36am On Oct 22, 2019 |
Author: TMKsouth Arguably the most popular city mayor in South Africa, Herman Mashaba has called it quits after running Johannesburg for just 3 years. Mashaba is a self-made millionaire businessman who entered politics a few years ago to rescue the country from Jacob Zuma's misrule. He is best known for his financial reforms for the city and his clarion call to restore social order in the notoriously dangerous inner-city (CBD). He adopted a tough stance on illegal migration both into the City of Johannesburg and South Africa as a whole, and worked to wrestle back 100s of hijacked buildings which had since fallen into disrepair and had turn into crime and drug dens. FAMOUS MASHABA QUOTES 1. On Recent Xenophobic Attacks “There is nothing to apologise for. We have a responsibility to get the president and home affairs to do something. What would anyone want me to apologise for? “The country owes an official apology to the million unemployed South Africans who are today without jobs as a result of billions of counterfeit goods being brought illegally into the country, killing local manufacturing.” 2. On African Migrants in Johannesburg “Perhaps the time has come for the South African government to be bold enough to engage with the leaders of each of the nations whose people are here, and ask them what they are doing to improve conditions in their countries so that their citizens no longer see it necessary to enter other countries illegally,” Mashaba quit as mayor on Monday due to internal squabbles within his political party, the Democratic Alliance (DA). Here's how some South Africans reacted:

MWhen you focus on external factors as the cause of your problems when the true cause is internal, you automatically place yourself on a self destruct mode. |

Jkay187: I fixed the bolded for you . "In all years I have known Helen zille,including reading extensively about her beautiful life ,anyone calling her a racist is actually a racist herself or himself". Hairman Mashaya. . He said this in March 2019. The same Mashaba in October 2019 resignes from the non racial party because of racial tensions spearheaded by the same " struggle icon " herself . Clever blacks are some of the most dumbest people on earth I swear . They can only fool the blind followers of 702 agents like Redi( miss -Khwezi could have lied about the rape ) Tlabi, not the majority of Africans. I'm waiting for the announcement that he will be joining fellow coon - malema " to help rescue the city from capitalists ". . Or him fronting a new party with fellow agent phumzile karate-woman and them . Satafrica tire me . There are idiots who will actually buy this little breakup and feel for these stooges , but like the 0.9% Lekota got in the last elections, theirs will must be worse. Bloody agents of darkness .

Lionessza6: By the way has anyone located Mr Obama? . He Is MIA . I hope the divorce proceedings are not what's keeping him back from addressing the nation . We have been waiting to hear from mini Madiba since 3pm . Someone please file a missing person's report on behalf of all of us concerned citizens . Why did he bring up the cr17 bosasa funding in parliament ?. Doesn't he know when you coon , you must be a good coon and not try and play the masters games? . Cyril is the golden boy they have been looking for , what use is this retar'd to them now ? .

Lionessza6: Oh, our man has been found ." The DA is not the best vehicle to take foward the fight for one SA for all" ..Vusi Mymoney . Oh, shyt . Really?. What about us that voted for them because we were convinced that you were the best leader since Madiba . This is a sad day for me and other black people who believed that Zuma and Malema were the ones behind all of our problems and that you were the solution . Malema and his gang after realising that they were used by imperialists and they are going to be the next targets ....
