@verashni I've watched Floyd Shivambu as a leader from his SRC days and it's a sad day for him to leave the EFF. I also don't think he'll be able to have as big an impact on the MK Party, as it's less agile and won't give him as much freedom as he had in the EFF. #juliusmalema #eff #mkparty #jacobzuma #floydshivambu #politics #southafricatiktok #southafrica #parliament #elections #umkhontowesizwe ♬ original sound - Verashni Pillay
@verashni Miss SA contestant Chidimma Adetshina may have withdrawn from the pageant but the issue and xenophobia lingers on. It's madness to try to make up your own rules for who is South African enough. #nigerian #chichi #chidimmaadetshina #xenophobia #chidimma #misssouthafrica #chichi #southafrica #southafricatiktok #xenophobia ♬ Knowledge - Vin Music
