Abramjee Have one question. Min NDZ.. in the president's office. Why haven't she got on camera. Live TV and said something about this. She has alot to say about cigarettes but nothing about this ZOOM ZOOM SHOPPING or Illicit cigarettes in SA. Nothing.

This thing is not a joke

Rest in peace Dr.Ngubane

RIP the arrogant one!

Mwalota May his soul rest in peace

Jurie Mentz and I initiated a last ditch parliamentary effort with Pres. De Klerk to ensure that the IFP participated in the 1994 elections. Dr Ben Ngubane flew down, joined with us, and led discussions with Cyril Ramaphosa and Roelf Meyer that saw a breakthrough. RIP Ben.

MbuyiseniNdlozi A high percentage of people being admitted and treated for Covid19 at hospitals are dying, compared to people that are quarantined at theie household. Why is that?

Abramjee Zumamustdieinprison

molotokk9 None of us is an angel,when a human being passes away,we have a moral duty to be humane and not pass our judgment on his soul.(some vile comments here) May Ntate Ngubane rest in eternal peace. Death be not proud.

I owe you an apology to ever doubt your sincerity and professionalism. It’s was just like a dream to me when I received my first payment. After my second payment it became a reality now after several payments it has become a way of life. tyron_robert7

Strength and condolences to the Ngubane in peace baba!

Rest in peace Sir.

Condolences to the family MHSRIP

RIP mdala

The question is, was he vaccinated? If he was, then it's the vaccine not Covid. The media is party to this genocide if it's not reporting objectively.

Rest in peace comrade 🕊️
