This conversation has been burning. And so many of my friends, partners & colleagues from across the world have reached out to me seeking my clarification on my comments made on @theplatformng While I stand by my comments, I do think that what is needed is for the leaders across Africa to sit in the same room and find each other. Making accusation after accusation, turning those indictments into a political issue, and egging on a confrontation is not going to work. We have to stop trying to be right & focus on hearing each other. For those South Africans with legitimate issues, they deserve to have them ventilated without being dismissed. For our brothers & sisters from the rest of our beautiful contineny who have their own lived legitimate experiences, they should be given space to speak. But, and let there no equivocation, South Africa’s laws (as is the case with the laws of every other country) must be adhered to. I travel our continent more than most. And everywhere I travel, it feels like home. But I also respect the rules and laws of every country that I visit. I respect the laws, the people, the rules & the customs. That doesn't make me “privileged.” It makes me respectful. My view is simple: We can talk, or we can fight. But we can’t do both. My heart is for Africa. My prayer is that Africans do better. We have to do better. We have to be better. If you agree or don’t agree, feel free to comment. Love & Light. VT

He solved the problem of being one man trying to run stores across three continents. The answer was not working harder. It was aligning incentives so the business ran without him in every room.

There is a documentary about how the CIA used Louis Armstrong’s Africa tour as a cover for surveillance. When a star that big arrives in a country, the leaders want to meet them. And that access was exactly what the CIA was looking for. I watched that documentary and then I watched IShowSpeed travel across Africa with a Starlink device that is not yet available to the public. I am not making a statement. I am just saying hmm.

Victory is certain. So I do not care what the process looks like. The attacks do not move me.

The world’s youngest population lives in Africa. Every other continent is aging. The math on where the future is being built isn’t complicated.

How we built the Vusi Thembekwayo report

This report covers Vusi Thembekwayo's Instagram account, @vusithembekwayo, using the account records available in IQFluence. The figures in this view apply to this account; use the platform switch to view the other linked accounts separately.

The engagement chart shows 10 posts published between 20 Aug 2026 and 15 Sep 2026. These are the content records available in this report; they are not confirmed as a complete account history. They are not confirmed as the sample behind average likes.

Average likes shows the arithmetic average of likes received by this account's last 30 posts. IQFluence calculates engagement rate as Average likes divided by Followers, multiplied by 100. Both values belong to the same analysis. The percentage does not measure unique engaged followers. Calculation details for average comments, average shares and average Reel plays were not supplied.

The source report is dated 30 Sep 2026; a separate collection timestamp for these metrics was not supplied.

IQFluence estimates audience location using location tags, recent-post language and captions, and information from follower bios. Country percentages are estimates, not verified residence data. These estimates do not establish unique reach, purchase intent or campaign sales.
