Money missing at South African Reserve Bank

If you're from the States or Canada, breathe easy.


South Africa has taken the lead in the nutty nation olympics. Details are sketchy, but according to South African federal reserve bank shareholder Fanie Fondse, someone robbed our cookie jar.


Not a former porn star, former Gauteng Premier and billionaire entrepreneur Tokyo Sexwale brings the deer in the headlight approach to skillfully soothe our worst fears.

As usual, our journalists look like they would rather comment on the cricket.

Enjoy the madness.

At least they tell you when you have been robbed.

the cookie jar was robbed from conception

fiat currency was based on theft...
Someone in south africa figured out what was happening a century later?

are we supposed to be impressed?
do I need to care?

wait, is skin color important here? I forget how it works.

Nothing to see here.

This is just South Africa continuing to proceed on its' highly predictable, years-long arc down to the Sub-Saharan country mean, down there with the Congo and Zimbabwe. Hopeless....


Move along, move along....

Incidentally the US has recently issued a travel warning against South Africa, which only seems to be partially informed by Covid-19 (despite the fact that the much touted post-Easter "third wave" of infections hasn't quite materialized).

In a notice published on Tuesday (20 April) the US warned that citizens should not travel to South Africa due to Covid-19, as the country has received a level 4 warning. “The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued a Level 4 Travel Health Notice for South Africa due to Covid-19, indicating a very high level of Covid-19 in the country,” it said. Other issues such as violent crime, armed robbery, rape, carjacking, mugging, and “smash-and-grab” attacks on vehicles were also raised as points of concern in the notice.

Added to this is probably the fact that anti-US slogans were chanted by some political factions in the not too distant past, the fact that ISIS is doubtlessly already active in SA with leftist, mainly tacit support (until now, but that could change to active support very fast) and some areas of the country turning into quasi-war zones with a racist, anti-minority media spinning fake news narratives along with ANC and EFF politicians that result in de facto violence against motorists and others who simply happen to be white (or possibly even black, brown or Asian if you can't make your political affiliations clear to some drunken mob) at the wrong place and time, with little to no evidence of police interventions.

I'm summing up a lot of what may be alleged, but safe as a country it is certainly not at present.

You must be parched after all that.



Chamomile tea?

A seaweed biscuit perhaps?

Sex Whale took the money.
I recon he is trying to get a head of it, cause the other guy knows.

Wow!, this looks like a deep rabbit hole,
and a real global conspiracy, going back to 1966.
The gold standard, etc.

This guy's life could be in danger.

"The White Spiritual Boy Trust.', No Jokes
lol



this is a very strange press conference, something weird is going on



champagne socialism at it's finest

This is what the finance minister has to say.

Mr Tokyo Sexwale’s statement about stolen money is untrue, sad and seems that he was a victim of the many scams abound. You cannot steal transmitted money from the central bank. How? His statement on television was unfortunate. Will reach out to him.

From news 24, this is very funny actually.

Businessman and former presidential hopeful Tokyo Sexwale may have fallen for a scam, which plays into a conspiracy theory that believes the world is run by a small group of people loosely based around top
banking institutions and royals.

National Treasury and the South African Reserve Bank on Monday said, in a statement, it had previously received correspondence from Sexwale "and many others", alleging that billions of rands have been stolen from
a fund referred to as the "White Spiritual Boy Trust" and which was set up by a foreign donor.

Tokyo....


Sexwale....

Tokyo Sexwale appears to have fallen for a scam so stupid even QAnoners rejected it
...
The "White Spiritual Boy Trust" Sexwale apparently referenced has come up in the Qanon world, where some conspiracy theorists still believe Donald Trump is essentially a superhero.

LOL

Good ole Michael Tellinger might have robbed 'em ...

Watch for airplanes dropping money over Soweto...

This guy says it involves JFK, fiat currency.
and 100 000 tonnes of gold.

My next chr shall be named Tokyo Sexwale.

Ya'll realize what happened here, right? That African prince that I keep getting emails from, finally paid out. Someone sent all the right info and they were able to get their millions.

Interesting wasn't that disappeared submarine from Indonesia... It might have reached the pickup location...

Some big fish was forced on land, and they throw us some small fish to cover for the smell... Fishy indeed

Wonder if this is somehow related to the 2016 incident with the mystery flight of a Global Airlines MD-11 from Germany to SA laden with 67 tons of freshly minted SA currency? The plane also had a dead body onboard and blood dripping from the fuselage when it landed in Zimbabwe to allegedly "refuel" (although some said it was an emergency landing). This was one of the most bizarre stories I've seen in a while. Of course, the MSM largely panned the story. Hmmmm.

Some definitely weird stuff going on with SA currency.

Story brief

Fake news, theres no one in the world with the name "Tokyo Sex Whale"

Nice try Satan

im sorry....i refuse to believe any of this is true. Not with a name like that in the starring role...with everyone's clothes still on.

Here's some other trinkets that may be stashed away in South Africa - the Gaddafi billions.

And around 2011 the former struggle stalwart, premier of Gauteng province, well connected business insider (it's all on his Wikipedia entry) was also the Mr. Trump/Sugar "super-boss" equivalent on South Africa's version of The Apprentice:

So just who is Tokyo Sexwale the man Fifa president Sepp Blatter used to defend his record for tackling racism? Tokyo Sexwale (pronounced seh-wa-le) took the role of Lord Sugar in South Africa’s version of The Apprentice, although he was later criticised for indecision when it came to picking the winning candidate.

The surname is apparently TshiVenda (or Venda, one of South Africa's 11 official languages and smaller ethnic groups, which also includes current President Ramaphosa). Although it's not pronounced "Sex-whale" in SA (see above), but I also can't find a direct translation of what it means on Google. However, since many South Africans are also of mixed ethnic heritage, the closest I can think of is "sehwale" which means "late" in Zulu.
