A man in Johannesburg took a trip down memory lane and shared a photo of an old tuck shop that has survived the test of time.

Writing on Twitter, Nkanyiso Ngqungula said the tuck is located in Vosloorus, Ekurhuleni. He explained:

This is a tuck shop 100% black-owned that was started in the early 90s by a man 'Mabaso.' I know this shop because my grandfather use to buy there in the 90s before he died. It is still operating till today based in Vosloorus Nguni Hostel...

He's also student activist currently pursuing a BCom Law degree. He's into Fanonism, dialectical materialism, and black consciousness.
