Former Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality mayor Athol Trollip has come under fire for his recent social media post, calling for government to celebrate the “important anniversary” of settlers' arrival in SA.
Trollip, who was commenting on the 200th anniversary of the arrival of 1820 settlers in Port Elizabeth, said he was a proud descendant of the settlers and the legacy their descendants have contributed to the country. I wonder whether this important anniversary will celebrated or derided by our Government? I’m a proud descendant of the 1820 settlers and the legacy that their descendants have contributed to our country. History is history, it is what it is.
Did he say government
Arrogance of the highest order. It's no different from a Neo-Nazi calling for the celebration of the establishment of the Nazi Party in Germany, since it's part of the German history.
petermoyo6 AtholT stop rubbing sand on our eyes
That's why the fuck you got fired everywhere
Go n celebrate where you come from
Finally showing their true colors
