Dear MyPE It is not surprising that the serving of the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro citizens would again be peripheral to the looming court case regarding the illegality of mayor Nqaba Bhanga's appointment (The Herald 12 January 2021 headline). I have to repeat that since Nelson Mandela was a qualified (& practising) lawyer, jurisprudence, law and/or legalese became highly over-rated with TV-loving advocates, lawyers, commissioner-of-inquiries, judges etc. jostling for vantage positions in … [Read more...] about Another Court Case Looming

Dear MyPE Year 2021 marks my 30 years of participating in give-away competitions , which I learnt and took over from my late father Mzwandile Michael Kama in the year of his passing away in 1991. Although I am forever grateful for the awesome prizes won during these 30 years like my now sold Hyundai i10 I won through a Dischem / Cadbury / Mondelez promotion in 2016 worth R145000, a Coca-Cola / Preston Liquors' trip worth R80000 to watch the 2014 Malaysian Formula 1 Grand Prix in Sepang, … [Read more...] about 30 Years of Giveaway Competitions

Dear MyPE It would have been hilarious, if not disillusioning, if the disputed executive mayor of the Nelson Mandela Bay Metro did give Marlon Daniels the Infrastructure and Engineering portfolio according their apparent horse-trading agreement (The Herald 17 December 2020). The ANC, DA, EFF, UDM etc. politicians are the same difference as their salaries, status & benefits come first before service delivery to South Africa & Citizenry. Take for an example my much-needed Woolhope Memorial … [Read more...] about Marlon Daniel’s Disillusionment

Dear MyPE As much as I also had a bitter taste in my mouth regarding car dealerships, the Hyundai North End Service in Port Elizabeth to be specific, I am pleased that Verkrampte Witmense (VW) aka White Supremacists and their Ilk viz. Black Educational Snobs (BES) are fighting with each other repeatedly (Sunday Times, 29 November 2020; Page 5). In my case, I won a Hyundai i10 from a Dischem & Cadbury / Mondelez competition of 2015, which had brand new parts replaced with old ones on more … [Read more...] about Porsche & Former MP Skirmish

Dear MyPE It has been almost 2 months now since the Traffic Lights at the R75 & Chelsea Road intersection, popularly known as the Chatty Dip that connects Veeplaas / Kwa-Magxaki / Kwa-Dwesi / Govan Mbeki Township, have stopped working due to some accident. The way drivers disregard the first stop, first drive rule and/or unaware of that K53 tutorial will cause countless accidents in a matter of who is faster than whom from being T-Boned. Regards Luyanda Marlon Kama Kwa-Dwesi, Port … [Read more...] about R75 & Chelsea Road Traffic Lights no more?

Dear MyPE Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations to Rochelle De Kock on being appointed as the albeit long over-due editor of both The Herald and Weekend Post newspapers. May these publications continue being primarily reporting, insight & ideas' platforms that they are and have always been under her stewardship. Her team cannot be overlooked as they surely add value those newspapers too. Two thumbs up madam & crew. Regards Luyanda Marlon Kama Kwa-Dwesi, Port … [Read more...] about Rochelle De Kock Appointment

Dear MyPE As much as the Eastern Cape is most-probably Africa's Capital in Jealousy & Schadenfreude / Epicaricacy (deriving pleasure from the misfortune of others), it also consists of Freethinkers that are few and far in-between though. The long-lasting libraries' lockdown could be ascribed to the stereotype that Blacks don't read hence the prolonging thereof, despite our current Level 1 of the Covid-19 restriction. I mean, according to our democracy i.e Affirmative policy, the majority … [Read more...] about Library Lockdown Woes

Dear MyPE Although it doesn't sit very well with me that South Africa has too many British Empire names for its landmarks, but it seems that the Geographical Names committee is primarily justifying its Relevance & Salaries (The Herald 24 September 2020) in that Name-changing crusade. Most of all, the propagated "colonial" names would be most-probably replaced by ANC pantheon names; making ANC Imperialism a replacement for British & Afrikaner bumptious bulldozing. In the case of Port … [Read more...] about Mindless Renamings

Dear MyPE Justice Malala's Who does SA really belong to (The Herald 21 September 2020)? reminds me of ANC Indoctrinees who were made to be believe, often voluntarily so, that the struggle against Apartheid was something similar to a Tennis match between Nelson Mandela and the Apartheid government. The likes of PAC, AZAPO, Black Sash, SANCO, the Democratic Party (DP) etc. are thus conveniently dismissed as mere passengers of the ANC-driven (nowadays gravy) train. I concede that the ANC was … [Read more...] about Africa – A Giant Graveyard

Dear MyPE What a sweet tongue our president Cyril Ramaphosa has, especially when currently addressing his ANC Comrades' Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) Tenders debauchery. I am repeating that there is no single race group in South Africa that loves this country, yet none more jealous of Black people's economic advancement, than the Afrikaner. As much as Apartheid was Satanically Evil, but the Nationalist Party (NP) did not treat Country & Citizenry like a Village Whore (VW) as … [Read more...] about Afrikaner Patriotism & Corruption

Dear MyPE Yours truly is once again advocating for a national database wherein the names of individuals, who fight and often get admitted into hospitals upon getting unruly drunk, could be registered. This would ensure Jail Time, Alcohol Suspension and/or Counselling for repeating offenders; as in the driver's licence demerit system. The whole alcohol beverage business, which helps many families, cannot be held at ransom by a few lunatics that shouldn't be consuming alcohol in the … [Read more...] about Alcohol Abuse Database Needed

Dear MyPE How timeously convenient for the South African Breweries (SAB) and Heineken BV to economically blackmail South Africans with their supposed multi-billion rand in investments losses due to the current alcohol ban. As much as I should be loyal to SAB as my late father was a truck driver therein up until his death in 1991, but the company has a reputation of playing victim when its BEE Manipulation isn't working in its favour. The likes of Distell are also suffering from the … [Read more...] about SAB & Heineken Blackmail

Dear MyPE Even though the biblical 7 deadliest sins have been well recorded throughout many centuries, I believe that Fame & Relevance should be included as the 8th & 9th ones, respectively. A case in point is the capturing of macabre video clips and sending it online , worst of all the killing of people in real time. In the South African case, our politicians are more concerned about who (or which party) is getting credit for any menial idea to ensure its fame, relevance & … [Read more...] about The 9 Deadliest Sins

Dear MyPE As much as Charl B (The Herald 17 July 2020) mentions people who are non-political to run the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality, his covert White Supremacy is evident by singling out entrepreneurial white men as suitable candidates. I repeat, Verkrampte Witmense (VW) aka White Supremacists and Black Educational Snobs (BES) belong to the same WhatsApp , which is prejudice based on deluded sense of superiority. In the South African context, Black means any non-Aryan group eg. ethnic … [Read more...] about Non-political Farce

Dear MyPE It amazes me that after the most status-conscious province in South Africa, Gauteng, has gained the dubious accolade of being number 1 in Covid-19 infections, the whole country is being subjected to a Blanket Doghouse. However, fascism doesn't require consultation from outsiders anyway, as per ANC / COSATU / SACP Laager's apparent directive. The positive thing about this dictatorship, which was not applied when the Western Cape was the fore-runner in the rate of Corona … [Read more...] about Gauteng Super Province
