  1. The chief is stupid, government has build a factory that will employ ur youth. There no sugar cane to process, ask ur your to go into sugar cane plantation. Everything government, why. Use ur sense a little, u are a leader. Delegating ur responsibility to government solves no problem.

  2. But why did they rush in commissioning the project when there was actually no plans for the project, #we need whites to rule this country again, the black man is incompetent in governance
