I love this soccer stories that you make, I now know where Kaizer Chiefs come from Orlando pirates and today it was history of sundowns. Thanks bro for free history lessons.
What's the difference between what Zola did and Nigerians. Smooth criminals no one was killed or hurt. Happy soul. South Africans must learn from Zola instead of using guns and killing love ones and leaving children to become hard criminals
As a Nigerian, we salute this African great legend that uses his talent to change lives and put smiles on millions of people faces despite he's gone Africans we must use our talents not GUNS Rest in peace African legend ZOLA MAHOBE
Beautiful insight in a story that's whispered around the hood. You should do a documentary on the deaths of pro kids' brother and a known soweto dj among others.
I'm an Orlando Pirates Fan but honestly I'm touch and inspired by Zola Mahobe's story. And the funny thing is that, he actually nearly brought Orlando Pirates. Another part, he was, if not mistaken a IT Software Engineer/Programmer, from I.B.M. to SBSA. Again, in a way, if it wasn't for SBSA, Mamelodi Sundowns wouldn't be where it is today cause of the scams. Lol...Success leaves clues by just starting small. Such a story shows, anyone can be success once you Dream Big, Think Big and Be Big. Life is not a journey, but a Process.
Wow wonderful flix bro God work with editing and story telling and nicest of background Theme track We want the part 3 where Tsiclas Krok family takeover Patrice Motsepe takeover CAF champions league Thlopie Motsepe to make a club a first South African brand to make R1.8 billion From R25 000 to now worth R1.8B Return on investment is the craziest of all time !! now to the club World Cup is crazy we are going there!
Great story and narration but I have to correct you on one thing… the scam was actually uncovered during that Wembley visit when Zola slipped to Germany to order the latest Merc. Unfortunately Snowy was not on duty that day and the person who processed the application at the bank uncovered the scam.
Appreciate it bro...but the Gladys part came first when she showed the article to the bank managers...I read the book 2 times and I double checked coz more people are saying the Benz issue came 1st...If you have the book its page 105 the car chapter is page 109
Can you please do a research about Washington Mposula former Orlando Pirates chairman. Not much is being written about the man and I believe he deserves a mention when talking about Pirates history
Sundowns roots are from Marabastad and later Laudium after Marabastad was disolved as a residential area during apartheid. Zola bought Sundowns from whom? The Singh Brothers and others.
Someone can understand how this Mamelodi Sundowns sign comes from.👉👆 Inombolo... Zola was a 27 number before even got into prison. Big up to the man. The sky is the limit 👆👆👆👆👆
The guys who have money now like practice motsepe where not smart, they had access when the government was changing. It made it possible for them to have what they have now.
My guy, what happened in prison? When was he released , and how did his life pan out after prison? Was he banned from Sundowns for life ?What happened to snowy
That's incorrect Shakes Kunguane played long after Teenage retired. Also, Zola was sentenced decades before Kunguane played for chiefs. Inconsistant information sir, sorry.
I enjoyed the story. But Why use Denzel instead of old newspaper clippings from (The World, The Daily Mail etc.). As a former Soweto resident that would have made me watch this over and over. Eish.. but this addressed my Nostalgic tendencies.
The different clips of Denzel, specially American gangster... for me it had similarities with Zola's life...from the come, to putting on his family, the girl, the arrest...but i know it can never be perfect for everyone
As a person who was particularly researching Dr Khoza's story since 2013 until 2022 when my computer crashed and lost all I had compiled. All I can say is that I am very impressed of your work and research especially when I thought I was the only person interested in these stories. Keep up the great job. Our people needs such history not to expose anyone but also to inform how our brothers and sisters hustled their way in ways that they thought possible from the difficult times we come from.
My brother thanks for your kind words, and yes many of our OGs didnt come from a silver-spoon background but did what they had to, so they can get out and uplift those around them...and yes its not about exposing but documenting our stories coz its our History. Big ups
we don’t like to read Bible on king lamuel a decree his mother wrote for him! But I want us to look into the case again I think the fraud was against Zola mahobe and exaggerated audits to steal from him I think those figures standard bank auditors came up with were madeup! I think he was already a billionaire from his businesses because R10 million wasn’t enough looking at what he owned under his name it couldn’t have amounted to anything from R25000 so we can see a loophole already! But today sundowns are the greatest African club on rising It’s been our culture of overspending and looking after our community watch ! I’ll be the next owner of sundowns as a billionaire and richest person to love sundowns probably worth $100B+ at the age 37 Mark Kingfluenx
This is one of the most necessary channels that exist on the internet right now. As a person that has always been hungry for knowledge on South African history and never properly taught by anyone and also not knowing where to start in tems of discovering some of our stories, this channel has really come in handy for me and I'm very appreciative of it. Thank you guys for all the work that you do. This was a very well-produced video and I'm looking forward to more. Keep up the great work.
Thank you for this informative piece.However, there is an ommision.Bro Benno Segale who was a relegation specialist salvaging many teams was recruited to help the club out of the mire.Zola got to know about him and he got him. The old man is still alive leaving in Mafikeng, I talk to him often.I think this history needs to restore this piece in the puzzle.
Hayi ke. Ubutsotsi obungaka. Tjerrr. History repeats itself. Sundowns and big money never stops. Marabastat Roc Nation boys... Irvin also involved in getting Zola to buy the club. Patrice is also a Pirates supporter that bought the Roc Nation boys. Wow. What a story
Robbing and siphoning money from the bank, is totally different. He used his girlfriend Snowy to steal money from the bank. He never went to a bank with a gun to rob Standard Bank.
@@ConfusedLargeTree-cg4hv I think you are confused for real. Who said he robbed the bank with a gun? And who asked you how he stole the money? Were you there? Anyway that info is everywhere on the internet. Bottom line, when it mattered most, Sundowns was funded through money laundering.
Why worry because it was white criminals money who also stole it by enslaving our forefathers wena ungenaphi are you spokes person for the white collar crime criminals
That’s my team I’m from the Eastern cape and I’ve been supporting iDowns since 1999!!(25 years!) Rothmans cup final I still remember as a little boy, Until now! 👆👆👆👆
As I was the only one👆 among the family members. Ooh how Mike Sporo Mangena spoke about bed officiating, but nobody cares. Where are those today...???🤔😆
What an oddly beautiful - and stonecold blockbuster - creation. There's a Snowy, Gladys, and Denzel in all his parts; - Denzel movies dont get Denzel in all his forms ‽‽
Honestly speaking 🔊 this guy is a genius 👏 and he had love and passion as well for football ⚽️ love him. I wish to meet such people once in my lifetime 😅😅😅
