, Osei, who currently resides in the Southern Suburbs, said he just started a new job and wanted to be close to work, seeing as his lease was up.

“I had not even given her my name or any information about myself. Maybe she saw my profile picture. When she said that, I asked her what she meant, thinking maybe it was a typo or she made a mistake,” Osei said. On social media, Johnson posted about starting as a franchise owner for Live Real Estate, however, Osei said the company chief executive Brendan Miller contacted him and said Johnson had only been working at the company for 48 hours.

“Live Real Estate has also advised Mr Osei of the steps to follow to report Gabriella and the landlord to the Estate Agency Affairs Board.“With regards to the landlord, we did not have a contract, as the property was not listed with Live Real Estate.

Racist Mother City = white Cape Town + black Cape Flats. This MUST end.

The might of black power destruction, landlords be careful!

Pretty shit hey? Would it be ok if they advertise beforehand 'for whites only' like they do 'blacks only' for jobs?

Everyday in the media you read how entitled black power want to expropriate your property. Buildings are now hijacked, destroyed or empty because of the might of black power. As landlord why should you not be weary

WC needs a healing and cleansing prayer session to rid itself of these racist varke

LOL there are so many replies that one could make to this article. At the end of the day its his house he can rent it to whoever he wants. If the shoe was on the other foot, this would not even make the news.

The owners choice to be specific. He/she, may be scared of black power & the consequences on the property. Can you blame them?

So a car hire company can be sued for refusing to provide a vehicle to a person simply because he is drunk. Surely people have a right to make decisions that are in their best interest and not to appease others.
