| 1638804732209709056 | @ewnupdates Wow, mind blown!🤯🤯 The minister has said something that all South Africans have known for years!! Give this man his R50 million bonus!! 👏 | 63 |
| 1640668602561863682 | @ewnupdates Resignation of a minister is too ceremonial for me,Head of department and line management must be criminally charged,because even after they go to know about the incident, they did nothing, or they were operationally involved in the crime itself. This is a national disaster. | 59 |
