USteenhuisen ubengaphandle kwesiteshi samaphoyisa eSoshanguve ekhala ngokwanda kwezigameko zobugebengu obuhambisana nodlame kule ndawo.
Uthe eGauteng izigameko zokubulawa zinyukile futhi ezweni jikelele kubulawa ngesihluku abantu abangu-75 ngosuku.
“What did Panyaza Lesufi do? He took your tax money to buy ill-fitting PEP Stores uniforms for untrained cadres and pretended that they were “crime wardens.” What kind of person pulls a drunkard out of a shebeen, gives him a uniform and a weapon, and then unleashes them onto a…

“Wenzeni uPanyaza Lesufi? Uthathe imali yenu yentela wathenga imifaniswano engalingani kahle ezitolo kwaPep wanikeza abantu abangaqeqeshiwe wenza sengathi balwa nogubengu. Umuntu onjani olanda izidakwa eshibhini, azinikeze umfaniswano nezikhali bese ezidedela emphakathini?” kubuza uSteenhuisen.

Lesufi's #crimewarden 'intervention' was ill-informed & is bound to fail.

But this post is clearly divisive in its racist undertone. Its reference to Pep Stores & shebeen patrons is intended to ridicule people for their race & circumstances.
Is this your appeal to black voters?!
I accept that John Steenhuisen is intellectually bankrupt and has no emotional intelligence whatsoever, but I am more shocked that the idiotic admin of this account thought it worthy to broadcast John’s stereotypical views of the previously disadvantaged. You will not be voted by…

But I guess the DA is hellbent on scoring perpetually own-goals in an election year.
You guys really don't want to run this country. And you really don't want racial cohesion.
It's really sad.
