Word of the Day [01 May 2026]
Amandala
The word is used as an intentional misspelling and pronunciation of the word ‘amandla’ which means strength.
The word was popularised on social media after Naomi Campbell said ‘amandala’ instead of the correct ‘amandla’ at the Global Citizen Festival in 2018.
You'll be strong. Hayi wethu Amandala to you.
Lord Kambala Day
Lord Kambala Day in South African football circles refers to September 5, 2020, a day etched in PSL (Premier Soccer League) history when Manuel 'Lord’ Kambala, playing for Baroka FC, scored a crucial equalizer against Kaizer Chiefs. That goal denied Chiefs the league title on the final day of the 2019/20 season, handing the championship to Mamelodi Sundowns instead. This singular moment earned Kambala the nickname "Lord Kambala" and immortalized his contribution to South African football lore.
Happy Lord Kambala Day, everyone 🎉
Family meeting
Whenever President Cyril Ramaphosa sets up a time to address the country about Covid.
There will be another family meeting, I hope he doesn't ban alcohol again.
