        U can’t blame them. “Someone who’s been bitten by a snake fears the worm.” It must not be the case but “our leaders”

        I'm so humbled that you get it. Being sold out and abused by a liberation movement is heartbreaking. 😢

        Not trynna be a pessimist coz SA all singing and happy and shit,but before @UKenyatta was dictator,he had a small party that came on with all these promises for Kenya. He was the fucking new dawn. Now even Satan moved office from here.
