A prime example that illustrates why your neighboursâ foreign policy is entirely your business & may require attention/intervention. 100% of Eswatiniâs borders, mostly informal an unmanned, are shared with South Africa; whatever happens there invariably trickles into South Africa
If this report is true, it raises a serious national security concern for South Africa. The United States has sent deportees, including people described as dangerous criminals, to Eswatini, from where they were allegedly released into South Africa through informal border crossings.
That would be a grave breach of border security and would put people in South Africa at risk. The allegations need to be urgently investigated and verified by the authorities.

RT @_wangwe: One of the worst traits you can have as a person is believing youâre a good person. So good that youâre incapable of harm. ThaâŚ

Sometimes the point of the trip is to eat something good, stare at a body of water, and remember who tf you are.
You don't always have to have a jam-packed itinerary!

Beatrice Marshall said years ago that these highrises are badly built: Kenyans bullied her for that for a week straight.
I posit that she was right then and she is still right today. We have to demand better for ourselves.
Hapa space ya hiyo keja fupi siku itawekwa highrise moja hatari, kuna watu watakuwa wanawasha bulbs siku mzima ju sunlight and balcony with views itakuwa jaba

Gluttony is not only about engorging oneself with copious amounts food.
We readily shame food gluttons for not controlling how much they eat but we reserve endless applause and adulation for wealth gluttons, power gluttons, promiscuity gluttons and attention gluttons.

US TV shows and in films normalised the mindset that college is where teens should spend more than half their time partying, and it got worse in the last several years due to the black pill manosphere streaming system with people like Clavicular pushing the "maxxing" culture.
One of the more terrifying aspects of the Cornell case is how almost nobody seems to register, by the descriptions, alarming levels of drug + alcohol use among elite Uni students. Weirdly normalized. There was always booze in the 80s, but not as layered with other intoxicants.

You can tell @MutuaAbel's social circle is comprised of watu wa kutumwa jacket kwa gari.
He's accustomed to holding court & people listening w/o contradicting him.
Abel Mutua: I am starting to dislike this whole business of one term and two term because it is lying to us that those are the only options we have as a country #JKLive

He really flew too close to the sun ma, once a man starts thinking heâs a god, heâs lost.
âVanzwa butterâ - Wicknell Chivayo has no regrets about getting ex-wife Sonja and her mum Tabitha Madzikanda locked up for nearly a week on charges that they circulated AI images of him with SA leader Cyril Ramaphosa. Says he withdrew charges because kids asked: âWhere is mummy?â

The remains stayed at the crash site. Police combed the wreckage. Funeral Parlour services waited. The man who could pick up a phone and reach Presidents had to wait for equipment that Zimbabwean authorities did not have. He had donated $2 million in cash and 20 Land Cruisers to the Army, Police and Prison Service on Unity Day. Indeed, no one is above the Gream Reaper's Program.

Doing all that instead of just asking for a divorce is rather ridiculous.
đşđ¸ In 2024, Wisconsin, a 45-year-old man faked his own death in order to escape his wife and kids and start a new life overseas.
Ryan Borgwardt went out kayaking one night on Green Lake, flipped the boat, threw his phone and ID into the water, then paddled back to shore on an inflatable raft.
From there, he rode a hidden electric bike 70 miles, crossed into Canada, and flew to the country of Georgia to move in with a woman heâd been talking to online.
He had prepared for months: new passport, life insurance, reversed vasectomy, money moved overseas.
Search teams spent weeks looking for his body with divers and drones.
Then, just 3 months later, he was found alive and well.
In 2025, a judge sentenced Ryan to exactly 89 days in jail â the same number of days he had kept everyone believing he was dead.

Dear @Kenyans Trevorâs statement is not true. There was no such call from former DP Gachagua. Such a call would in any case not be worthwhile at RMS. I have asked Trevor about the remarks and he says it is âa mistake and I regret itâ. Trevor has also told me he âdidnât think the remarks would be picked up.â

Trevor Ombija's rally remarks have reopened a bigger question: what happens to newsroom credibility when journalists campaigning for office stay on shows that demand neutrality?
Audiences shouldn't have to wonder whose interests an anchor is serving when they ask questions.
We can't claim to hold power to account if we won't hold ourselves to account.
MCK has draft guidelines on journalists seeking office. The real test: when do candidates leave the screen?
That timeline can't be vague, and it can't wait until 2027.
