Phambili we go

😄 the inflated prices they come up with.

These guy is working hard

Good example of a former convict turned politician. Actually doing things for others than himself or his family- most politicians here do things in reverse to this - first politician, then criminal (but not convicted - innocent until proven guilty) and then self, family & friends

He has a dark factor hidden which is very dangerous 😁 The first step of changing one's life to become a better person, would be to admit one's wrongdoings. Gayton has done that. I believe he's doing good things in the Karoo. But as a political party leader, he's actions must always be scrutinized, which is actually a good thing.
