So much wrong, yet ignored

The Citizen

|

February 27, 2025

The unfortunate truth about South Africans is our ever constant allergy to the truth.

- KEKELETSO NAKELI

The way we are so adamant that our truth needs to be painted with fairy dust, it has to be aesthetically and verbally pleasing.

Thus leaving us in contrast to the reality of our everyday life. We are shocked at the real version of existence because we are still living our best lives in Neverland.

In South Africa, with an appalling and terrifying crime rate, a land of hopelessness and joblessness, we stay believing that this concrete jungle can afford to stay in absolute oblivion.

Criminals are a craze, theft is applauded, we are distracted by anything vaguely a fad. Things that will not matter three years from now take up so much space in our thoughts and conversation pieces.
