  1. Women PLEASE stop creating more humans, especially male children. All they do is bring so much trouble to their mothers, societies, families, townships and other women! Ladies, please protect your wombs and close your legs. Do not have any more children. The world is messed up to bring more innocent souls into this earth. Women are responsible for bringing all these children into this misery, so please STOP it, ladies. Close your wombs from males.

  2. I hope he's stayed clean. I actively used opiates for 10 years and have been in recovery for going on 16 years so I know the struggle. The young ones need some more education. Seeing them sharing needles and injecting blood was horrific. What nonsense to think that blood still has any of the drug in it. They just don't know and probably all have HIV now. 😢

  3. Aowa isnt this reporter who faked a rape documentary in sa. The alledged victims came out to exposed him saying he paid them 200r he made it seem like his shooting an adver that wont be on tv

  4. Thanks for the insight, so sad that our future generation is choosing this way of life with njaope. We must fight addiction, fight corruption, and build a south africa that we are proud of.

  5. I can't stop crying, my uncle is also addicted to nyaope and he looks just like Jesus, when they cut his hair my tears just started falling because I could just see my uncle 😢 i had to push myself to keep watching coz i wanted to see him win. Gos help us😢😢

  6. The love of money is the root of all evil. Satan only comes to Steal, Kill, and Destroy. Rebuke those demons out of all of Africa. Because those same demons are working in America and in other places in the world. 👺

  7. " It´s hard to see how low Jesus has fallen."……" What I am witnessing is sheer madness." Sad stories. Jesus is such an articulate poet and narrator. Seeing him laughing and talking to his mother was just something of hope and relief.

  8. This is far more than telling a story. A life was turned around and through Jesus many others will turn around.
    Well done Mtika.
    Aaawww watching Jesus and the Mom 😭😭😭😭

  9. Jesus' recovery was such a fantastic story. Even when using you could see his intelligence and good manners. Best of luck to him and his family. Thank you and kudos Golden.
