    We now agree that 95% of Black South Africans are illiterates. Their behaviour is just like those animals in Masai Mara. We don't have to argue with them.

    South Africans are deranged. Mispronouncing something is saying the same thing in a different way, like the way Ghanaian vs Nigerian will say "church". But Ghananian is not the same as Ghanaian.

    Maybe it is a tongue or pronounciation problem cos Malema also struggles with pronouncing Ghanaians and I think Presidents Zuma & Ramaphosa as well. Cyril Ramaphosa is failing as SA President, it is unfortunate.

    Simple. If she intentionally mispronounces Ghanaians as Ghananians, then refer to her people as South Afrikaners. I bet she'll love that name since it puts her people in the same pot as their former Afrikaner abusers.
