    Now project forward and see all these vehicles as electric. Batteries have failed only a few hours after you were stuck because you had the heater on. No one can bring a charging station to you not like a can of fuel so now hundreds if not thousands of tow trucks are required and when they get you to any charging point there are already hundreds of vehicles waiting to charge. No thank you

Niyabo just because we are all African it doesn’t necessarily mean that we are the same. Niyezwa emakhanda wenu. Do you comprehend. Even our accent isn't like yours, it's funny how some of you try very hard to mimic SA's accent, I cringe. Accept that we are simply SAs. Get this right. We aren’t the same. SA is SA. The snow thingy isn’t the new thing is South Africa. When I was younger it snowed a lot. I tell English folks in England that I’m very familiar with cold weather in SA gets really cold, especially in June and a bit of July, bear in mind we’re at the end of September now. 🤸 🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸.
