Our government makes sure our daily dosage is well catered: inaccurate to insane water and electricity bills, Nkandla, state capture, etc. Good service delivery on the part of our government!
Even the president gets his daily dosage of aggravation. Read more

Those who want to pursue entrepreneurship will find this particularly mind churning.
