Black People never question why MPs in Parliament allow Over R2 Trillion of their Assets in Pension Funds at PIC to always be thrown to Apartheid Relics like Naspers & Nedbank [Oppenheimer’s] to run amok but never pumped to their SMEs to be able to expand, create wealth and jobs

Your R 2 Trillion worth of Pensions at the PIC bankroll a Loss Making Foreign American Company named Massmart with Billions every year despite losses of R1, 3 Billion in 2019 and R 6 Billion in 2020. But your own children ko Kasi dont even get R500K worth of funding from your PIC

The Public Investment Corporation (PIC) manages $150 billion and 89% of that are Pension Funds of Public Sector Employees. The Public Sector is made up of 77% Black Employees, but 95% of the PIC's investments are held in White Businesses such as Naspers with R268 billion alone.

We’re not just building vehicles. We’re building an industry. That's worth R900 million in pre-generated revenue for us. Over the past 10 years, Scooter has gone from a concept to a catalyst: • South Africa’s first Black-owned electric vehicle manufacturer • 100+ fleet

Yesterday I told you how the IDC South Africa gave me R0 over 8 years while giving R69.9m to a white-owned competitor. That thread reached hundreds of thousands of people. But the IDC is not the only institution that failed Green Scooter. The DTIC watched. Ministers were

Key takeaways from yesterday's Black entrepreneur funding discourse. Black🇿🇦masses do not know and/or understand: *neoliberal laissez-faire capitalism *deindustrialisation *financialisation *structural power * 1993 ANC-WMC concessions *how to organise collective activism

The system is: 1. Come up with idea. 2. Go to banks or rich white people for series A, so they can have a piece. They eat before Govvy. 3. Go to government for additional funding. White mans funding is the stamp you need for govvy. The YOCO boys understood how things work.

Further in South Africa “Seed investment” doesn’t exist, you are not getting any funding without having an MVP, in fact not just an MVP but a fully operational business with sales. That means the country with the highest unemployment rate in the world is only providing Series A

The political and wealth class in this country only has 3 uses for SAns, export raw materials, buy imported goods and get into debt. They are heavily leveraged into those positions. They don't want us to have affordable energy, housing or education. Any real investment into those

While we’re speaking about funding and black entrepreneurs being fucked over in South Africa, another prevalent issue black entrepreneurs face is theft. This lady talks about how her drone project was stolen after she went to seek funding.

The IDC South Africa has issued a response. I note that it does not address: 1. The Matshekga directive (July 2019) that was never executed 2. The Marumo admission of ‘inconsistencies’ (22 Jan 2026) 3. The Mellowcabs comparison (R69.9m vs R0) 4. The circular referral that blocked

Let one present to you HOW Abelumbi established these industrial areas just for their benefit. The state provided LAND, cheap labour[townships nearby], subsidised electricity, water and road infrastructure plus funding from IDC, SARB, departments

I can’t be the only business/entrepreneur suffering at the hands of the IDC South Africa. I implore more South Africans to come forward with their stories. The guys in tech who can help me with this platform I finish off this platform to the likes of the IDC to shame. Please come

Enough about what went wrong. Let me tell you what we built while nobody was watching. This is @scooterrsa. We turn city streets into moving media and high-performance delivery routes. Fully electric. Built in South Africa. Black-owned. Here is what we can do for your business.

Sandile Dlamini had been in Midrand for just over six years working as a Supply Chain Coordinator at LogiCore Distribution, earning just under R58k a month, stable job, predictable life, and for once he felt like he was ahead of things. A Thread.

This picture was taken by one of the members of the Bang Bang Club, a group of photojournalists who documented political violence between IFP and ANC in Thokoza and Katlehong in the early 90s. Kevin Carter (the vulture) was a member of that club. Sam Ntuli's assassination

In Midrand, Pieter van Wyk (CA(SA)) signed off a new warehouse automation process that reduced payment cycle time by 48% and was celebrated as a major efficiency win. Six months later, Thabo Maseko, a process engineer who had quietly questioned the design from day one, helped

In the final analysis, I am telling u as an old man, nobody makes real money in their area of training. All education is indoctrination, you only get to flourish when u operate outside of the area you were not propagandised on. You are more open minded and macro in perspective.

I want a weaker ZAR that is complemented by a strong manufacturing sector, coupled with advanced agro-processing.
