First BLF ignored by voters, then slapped with a gag order over Patrice Motsepe

A judge ruled on Thursday that the BLF and its leader Andile Mngxitama must stop repeating claims that Patrice Motsepe is involved in a Botswana coup.First, preliminary results from Wednesday's election showed the party has virtually no sway in the court of public opinion, then the party was ordered by a court of law to stop claiming billionaire Patrice Motsepe was involved in plotting a coup d'etat in Botswana.

That is what judge Thifhelimbilu Mudau ruled in the South Gauteng High Court after Motsepe launched an urgent application to get a temporary interdict to stop the party and its leader, Andile Mngxitama, from repeating the allegations. Mngxitama accused Motsepe in April of"craving Botswana diamonds" in what he believes was a mission in which the businessman was being helped by his sister, Bridgette Radebe, wife of energy minister Jeff Radebe, to interfere with the Botswana government.Bridgette's sister, Tshepo Motsepe, is married to President Cyril Ramaphosa.

Mngxitama is learning the hard way that voters aren't Guptas' curry.

Andile is touching the nerves of few blacks that the whites opened the economical door for them. 💯✊

Andile should learn politics and master its art. Motsepe is a businessman with an emotional based leaning constituency in the form of Sundowns Club supporters made of community that he depends on for votes. You can't take on such a constituency based person when you have none.

When you try so hard to be relevant that you even stepping on the wrong people.... ba nyese Motsepe

When you have billions, you can even stop humans from reproducing. You will say to them... Jump, and they won't ask you how high. Mudimo.

Ag shame

What also needs to change is their whole attitude. Same thing the night king offered the northerners We need more people with a mentality like the BLF. Militant African people! Lack of militant people is the reason why we were colonised in the first place. We're naturally righteous people but we shouldn't let that stop us from seeing who our enemy has been and still is.
