WATCH | Gangster State author breaks down Magashule corruption claimsMagashule has said he will be taking the matter to court, a move welcomed by the author as he says the book is based on fact and credible evidence. Black Africans are terrorised some even write all this books forgetting they lived under a gangster state mafia which terrorised blacks for so many centuries amazing. The SG will tell his history lol i dont think soo, he is just testing the water to see if the author will retract the book by saying he will be taking legal action, let him go to court he will incriminate himself even more cuz the author will now be subjected to provide evidence of his claims in the book. Eish will never do that. He is a total chickenshit. Will duck and dive like his puppetmaster, the dancing dunce.
