I have listened to so much of prison and crime stories and I have been watching your channel for a while but this guy has given a new understanding of crime & prison life. Really wish I could get this guy to speak to some schools in Soweto and youth centers
what we need is film making dedicated to subverting how prisons are designed to create only worst human beings, listen to this guy you can hear he remembers who and why he is, he also understands how a criminal record has created an uncleanable slate in his life, this guy can talk, he can teach, he can tech about the triumph of the human will, even him personally there is nothing he cannot accomplish

You know out of the many videos Ive watched and enjoyed very much on this channel the thing most constant as to how these brothers find themselves in crime is the broken family. We need to do better this isn't to say we should stay in failed or failing marriages, better parenting, better community building I think we can save a lot of lives this way
Thanks man but the guy must try to finish his story, because how he get to jail we don't know, he was age 9 when he started doing crime jiki jiki he is in prison, jiki jiki umkhulu, jiki jiki, crime doesn't pay(good advice) jiki jiki, attempted rape jiki jiki, blanket and the beating then boom thanksgiving to the guy who came for his rescue and taught him a number.
Lol this guy just made it worse for me now I am really scared of prison 😭😭😭😭 you can see his expression 😭😭. He can be a good actor though because everything he says starts inside, he can make you feel what he’s saying.
have you done nyaope addicts before? I'm sure they have interesting information on the intoxication and the real street life. as well as tricky ways they've made money or being victims of mob justice.
Please name your videos in a specific order. It's really hard to follow one person's story. I end starting with the last video I should have ended with. Otherwise, good content
He was also talking about the role he was given within the numbers gang and how the numbers gang operate with each other and with listening to him he was a 27 but yeah his life was a mess since his childhood years
From my little knowledge of the life. The 27s were regarded as the most unruly of the gangs with gruesome flag-raising duties. Their mandate was initially to cause chaos to the correctional system and from time to time blood was needed to fly the flag high. Warders would rather deal with 28s rather than 27s because it is the nature of the 27s to not even take orders from the warders. The 27s defended the gang code from the 26s right through to the 28s. In Durban Maximum Prison the 27s are dying bread because they were normally the OGs of apartheid-era times that demanded gangsters to follow the code and gave birth to the 26s. Now the 26s have assumed control of the hierarchy but only a few mountains are afforded the right and respect of the number as they dedicate their lives to this. All I am saying, in prison rather cross paths with 28s and 26s,24s, big fives than the 27s.

this should be made into a movie,its such a sad and insightfull story on his life,im zulu but these code words made me understand 90 percent of what hes saying hes so smart and gangter this guy💯
This young man had no chance in life from the beginning of his life. The older man who used him must be ashamed of themselves. Also step father you accept a woman and reject a child who did not ask to come into this world. Most men have children all over the place and no one judges them. I will not tolerate that rubbish, I will rather stay with my children and live a happy life with them. No one is going to ever separate me from my child or children.

@@YoungKidT 😂 😂 😂 😂 he got carried away explaining how he got into the number, long story short.....he stabbed someone in prison, was beaten up by prison warders badly, thrown into solitary confinement and that's where someone threw him a little package with some items including a letter confirming that the leaders of the number have seen what he has done and he is one of them. He just gets carried away with the lingo, I think he's too pationate about the number
If he killed a 28 general to become a 27, and got away with it without other 28 gang members revenging their leaders death in all the years he spent inside. How come these so few 27 gang members left?, and yet so many 28 generals?. And a ranking system that many lower ranked 26 gang members are trying to clime up to get to the position of being the number 1 general yase mphumalanga (27). As surely thats the shortcut up the 26 rankings.
totally agree with you there but its the only life he has ever known and the sad part it seems the people who groomed him made him believe the life was the only form of security and thrills
They don’t have to speak about it, so if we want them to do it then remunerate him so they can spread the message! Time is money, and it is their time, they don’t owe society anything because jail time means you’re paying your dues to society!!!
The way he speaks is like poetry...he puts you right at the scene with his words. It's poetic
Exactly
