“He and Sol have the same hat dealer.”
@Cebe_Lihle23 shared:
“Sibindi ngempela! He looked good.”
@Mokwena12345 asked:
“Who has he employed in his businesses? Does he have a Business Visa? Does he pay taxes?”

“Patriots, why are you sleeping on this one? Surely someone at Home Affairs can investigate and leak the corruption or how he came into the country.”
