It's worrisome to read miscellaneous versions of thoughts and opinion on the alleged involvement of billions in tenders of Madzikane Diko. Yeah, SAY HIS NAME! It's irking to notice how NOBODY used the actual face of Madzikane Thandisizwe Diko.
It's truly a man's world! 🚮😒🚶🏽
I've read up on what I could find and nowhere does it say Khusela is directly involved and yet all publications and social media tweets/posts carries her face— WHY AREN'T THEY BARING THE FACE OF MR. DIKO? Is it bcos Khusela works in the Presidency? 🙄💁🏽
"President Cyril Ramaphosa's Spokeperson Khusela Diko's husband..." Why not "King Madzikane II Thandisizwe Diko...?" And y'all are riding the wave forgetting that this is exactly why patriarchy exist! What's difficult in stating the facts without dragging the spouse?
Did she sent Madzikane to bid for the tender? Did she asked him to do what he allegedly did? Why is the nation crucifying Khusela? Why are media houses making money off of her face? And y'all think it's right? I don't condone corruption but y'all are wicked!
Say Madzikane Diko's name and leave Khusela out of it. Use HIS face and write about HIM. I don't understand why women are coming after Khusela at the pace which they're. Why aren't y'all addressing Mr. Diko? Why's the entire nation hiding behind Khusela's face? Why?

1. The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!
2. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse... DON'T HAND IT TO HIM!
Toss it away from you;
... Chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse.
AND RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and;
... start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.
4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.)... DON'T DO THIS!
Studying International Relations or Diplomacy or IRD in its entirety is DIFFERENT from being a diplomat. The challenge is, the lack of training within this field has forced Presidents to appoint (95% of most instances) military personnel because of their ethics and discipline;⤵️
Fostering foreign relations isn't a walk in the park. 1. You need to have a full comprehension of your country's foreign policies on various sectors/markets; 2. You NEED to be multi-lingual. English is NOT enough. You need to learn French, Portuguese, Spanish as basic;
If you can't learn them, have a basic understanding thereof, ESPECIALLY FRENCH.
Many MANY diplomats have escaped traps, avoided diplomatic wars and have escaped attempts on their lives from understanding a foreign language whilst pretending not to understand the language;
Serving the continent didn't happen because I knew someone, it happened because I'm passionate and I was willing to start at the very bottom of leadership. Until you're comfortable with leading in silence and from the back— FORGET ABOUT LEADERSHIP!
Today made me really sad. I understand everyone wants "opportunities" but prove yourself FIRST. Prove that you can be trusted, you can lead in silence, you're a community based leader and above all, you're a servant leader. Not everyone is meant to lead from the front!
Power is extremely dangerous if not managed properly. It can destroy and corrupt beyond recognition.
Positions and statuses must never take more precedence over transformational leadership. Lest we remain like most of our current leaders.
There will NEVER be a day where I will ever depend on a man for financial security. Nog nooit.
I will never allow myself to feel entitled to his money, to expect money from someone's son and to loot his pockets dry. I am NOT that woman, I will never be her! #Aneva ⤵️⤵️
Whatever I need or want— I get it myself. I buy it myself. I save if I have to. But, to demand and or expect someone else's son to just nje... Buy it, do it for me is witchcraft!
Women want equality and equity but yet again we (you) don't want financial freedom? Like, WTH?💁🏽😳
I don't know where society is heading to. Genuinely speaking. What's wrong with doing things for yourself at your own expense? You expect a trip from your partner but you don't even meet him half ways for it? Like, kanjani? How's that even possible?
I was once on a humanitarian mission to Somalia & Sudan. I slept in tents & ate tin food. What I saw on those missions not only broke my heart, I returned in a very depressive state. I saw how innocent women & children suffered & died of malnutrition, I saw what civil wars did;
The sound of (physically weak) weeping mothers haunted me for days, I knew right there and then that I will never stay another day away from active politics. Everything we do is a DIRECT result of a political decision;
The price of sugar, bread, rice; the price of housing, W&E, salary scales and CIVIL WARS— ALL POLITICAL DECISIONS!!! Women and children have been at the suffering end of greedy men. Men who got no compassion towards the innocent, MEN WHO ONLY THOUGHT/THINK ABOUT THEMSELVES;
I can't stop thinking about the Afrikaans university being build. White people mobilized 300 million amongst themselves. This uni is already under construction, and whites have yet again created an employment project worth 4,5 million. Dear black people.... (THREAD) stay with me!
Dear black people, whilst we are busy killing each other, white people are BUILDING THEMSELVES. Whilst we are busy violating, abusing & committing femicide, white people are BUILDING THEMSELVES. Whilst we are busy "shutting down" the country, white people are BUILDING THEMSELVES
Dear black people, whilst we are busy being "activists", "feminists" and so forth and so on, WHITE PEOPLE ARE BUILDING FOR THEMSELVES. Whilst we are busy "Thuma mina-ring", WHITE PEOPLE ARE BUILDING. Building generational wealth, a whole university and they are successful at it!
