"Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed." This is a famous quote by the renowned theoretical physicist, Albert Einstein, who developed the theory of relativity, one of the two main pillars of modern physics. He, however, was unable to maintain any of...

Arguably, Zando is South Africa's biggest online fashion store. While it was founded as a subsidiary of The Jumia Group by Rocket Internet AG in 2012, the company has metamorphosed into a leading online fashion shopping destination in South Africa. Disregarding Zando's in-house brands like Utopia, the online fashion outlet can brag about being a home to many brands in,...

According to Economic Freedom Fighters' president Julius Malema, blacks are illiterates, unemployed, plagued by drug abuse and, are dying because of the evils of White South Africans. The EFF leader was speaking at his party's memorial service in honour of the late famous Cuban leader, Fidel Castro when he made the assertion. He declared whites the devil troubling black South...

Arguably, choosing a career path based only on things that appeal to one, is the naivety of livelihood. It's now a popular sentiment that a good salary makes a happy career. Of course, you'll be happier if your vocation is all about what you love doing. But then, it'd be a frustrating vocation if it can't earn you a respectable livelihood. Many career experts and...

With the recent dramatic issues that arose relating to the cost of education in South Africa, the protests and all that, no one would take serious information about getting an education at no cost in the country. It's simply impossible. But then, we discovered these platforms where anyone who's willing to be educated but couldn't afford the cost of...

According to the Ipsos MORI's "Perils of Perception 2015" survey, South Africans are the 8th most ignorant citizens of a country among other citizens across 33 countries. Don't be too hard on yourself, this is not in any way, saying you are an ignoramus. Far be it. It's rather saying that "perceptions are not reality" as we're wrong about some key issues and features...

South Africa's official opposition party said SABC has again, refused to air their election ads. The refusal to air DA's election Ads according to the party is the "latest example in a string of cases that patently illustrates how" the public broadcaster has been hijacked. BuzzSouthAfrica learned that SABC told DA that it has no available slots for political...

The cliché you'll most often hear from feminists will infer something similar to the overused sentiment - what a man can do, a woman can do better. Considering the large bulk of the world's total wealth women control, it is clear the world can no longer overlook the increasing influence of the feminine flock. It doesn't matter much if they made the wealth...

Okay, it's not exactly as stated in the headline, here's how it is - 61 nations were surveyed and South Africa emerged the sixth most illiterate nation among them. This is according to a descriptive rank-order study by the Central Connecticut State University which was enabled by variables that tested literacy achievement and the exemplification of literate behaviours across countries. The...

I met this Xhosa speaking dude at Bhisho, during a night out. We got talking, about the country, animals, and everything. And as it was same week Prince Harry was touring South Africa, something he said about poachers, made me say; "don't worry, Prince Harry is here, he'll save the rhinos". My new friend regarded me with curious eyes, and in Xhosa, blurted...

Crimes and criminals have confronted South Africa and South Africans with the perplexity of radical evil. Shocking crimes are being committed by the unscrupulous initiative of too many crooks and hoodlums, with the blessing of more gangsters, and amid the passive acquiescence of crime fighters who readily convert to criminals when it's convenient to do so. Neither murder nor rape is the most...

When Zimbabwe celebrated her first-ever all-female deck crew, the story was indeed an inspiration, which has led us to uncover more inspiring but lesser-known tales. It has become an established fact that being a woman in this part of the world somewhat means you can aim at being great and successful but not too successful for it's as though...

It's a world of heartbreaks, pains, and cries. And as often said, men, are naturally polygamous. They are firm believers of 'variety being the spice of life', they want to have it all, they love this, they like that and it's seemingly simply impossible for them to faithfully stick to a partner. Love is always beckoning to them from...

Love and romantic feelings are more like a license to be stupid. I mean, there are many instances of strong, smart, vibrant, good thinking, attractive and decent gentlemen, and ladies who found love and literally took their first step into the unending journey of a retarded lifestyle. They essentially started acting, thinking and living like morons, who consistently make...

Someone somewhere once said, "the art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge." Another advised we "take the attitude of a student, never be too big to ask questions, never know too much to learn something new." For according to yet another fellow, "no one is dumb who is curious. The people who don't ask questions...

I know some of us have the urge for an urgent bond with wild animals which is to some extent understandable but rather odd. And yes, this quote: "deadly snakes" are just very instinctive to me. I've been playing with snakes since before I could walk. It doesn't matter where or what it is, from the biggest to the most...

Either stressed or offended, South Africans are kind of programmed every day with plenty opportunities to get angry. Anger is never without a reason, anybody can get angry as it's increasingly quite easier to be annoyed. However, being angered for the right reason(s), with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in...

Amidst the many, many troubles of South Africa; poverty, violence, crime, corruption, racism and economic crisis, a lot is needed to make people's life bearable and fun, but for those who in one way or the other have decided to have a good life irrespective of all the issues that are out to weigh them down, very little is...

Robert Mugabe was the President of Zimbabwe for a very long time, almost eternally. His emergence as the leader of the nation can be traced back to the conflict of the White minority government of then Rhodesia. He was a prominent leader of the rebel groups against the White minority rule, became a political prisoner in Rhodesia between 1964...
