Just out of curiosity, your name Mutombo, is also a Congolese name. From Central DRC. Do you have any Congolese ancestry?

Hahaha I get that a lot. No, I’m 100% Cameroonian. The word Mutombo means different things in different areas though, from Congo to Cameroon to Côte d’Ivoire to Zimbabwé. It’s also pronounced differently. I’m not even pronouncing it as it typically is pronounced in my village just because I want to keep things simple.

Mutombo is synonymous with Mbuthuma or Mbuduma or WaHuma or WaTutsi (Thusi as in Pearl Thusi) or Duma or Mbedu or Edo or BaNtu or Mbuthu or MaPondo or Dube or Ndaba or Mandaba or Mathaba or Mutapa (as in Mononutapa) or Matamba as in Kingdom of Ndongo and Mutamba. These are Bantus who came from West Africa down the West Coast to Angola and then Mozambique-Zimbabwe. Most Zulu tribes come from Kikongo (in Angola) as in Ndongo = Shabalala (my tribe Zwana/Zwane comes from here, also called Tswana) and Mutamba as in Ndaba or Zembethe or Sibisi or Zambezi or Mbatha or Bata as in Mbadza-Kongo (where we come from as Zulus) or Mpanza or Mabasa or Mabaso - thisbis the same clan over which the Zulus rule so much so we share the tribal libation Ndabezitha and and Ndaba. This was led by Mbande dynasty. THE ruling Zulu dynasty is called Mpande. Anyway, Maputo = Mutombo. Also Kimbudu. There are some Mbuthuma still in Sudan where we came from. That is why Khumalo Zulus or Ndebele are called AmaZunda. Also, some Cameroonians and Nigerians come from South African tribe who lost to King Shaka and wrecked havoc in Central Africa and became the ruling tribes in Central and Southern Africa, called Ngoni. Kameroen, the name comes from Meroe a Bantu Kingdom where Ethiopia is now that was called Zagwe afterwards, which is the tribe that created the Letole or Luthuli house also called Lunda or Ludawombe or Dahomey = Ndlovu or Ituri or Toure or Ndou or Tlou or Zhou/Zuma or Dube or Duma or Huma (the last two mean Lion's Yelp or Roar). This is one clan divided by colonial lines. In South Africa, Meroe is also called Moloi or Moloisane who gave birth to my clan called Zagwe or Zanj or Zansi or Zanzi or Zwane. So, Mutombo is a actually a Zulu name as well as Mbuthu and we say they come from Ngcobo clan who are the Tungwa or Ndonga or Ndau or Tau (Ngwenya or Kenya or Kwena or Khona or Ngona or Nango who are called Ludaluba or Ludawombe or Ludahomey or Zhoulouba or BaZhoulou = amaZulu. Mbuthuma people are called Manala Ndebele in South Africa. Tribal names of Kikongo in South Africa: Ndongo = Shabalala/Nxamalala/Ngxabalala or called Mathole or Ntuli or KaNdlovu or Lunda or Ndau or Nyawo/Yao or Mlawu or Ilunga. Matamba = Mandaba or Ndaba or Zembethe or Simbithi or Sibisi or Sisi/Zizi/Moses or Mzizi or Titi or Tete or Mthethwa. This is the tribe that Zulus say they come from. Also called Mbatha or Mbethe or Mbithi or Mbotho (Lesotho tribes say Mphotho) or Mbuthu and we also switch the variables as Thamba or Tembe/Thembu or Thimbi (like Mothibe) Thombo/Mthombo. I would say the best place to find Mutombo in Zululand is as Mthombeni who libate themselves with Duma, from whom come the AmaPondo and Pondomse (Mambo-Dumisa). This clan is the same clan as the Akhan of Ghana, which we call Ngwane/Zwane in South Africa. A lot of my tribal libations are the tribal names of the Akan.

To be closely specific about 400 years

Although SA has all 4 seasons, each place has a different weather due to it's location. In the Free State province, it can get extremely cold in the winter with snow due to its altitude. Johannesburg also gets cold due to to its altitude but it hardly gets snow. In Durban it gets very humid and hot due to it's subtropical climate from the Indian ocean. But in Limpopo province, it can get really hot(Cameroon type of hot) because it's located around the tropic of capricorn. The Northern Cape has dry weather (because its basically a desert) where the winters are extremely cold and the summers are extremely hot.

The comparison is top notch. This glow is something else, beautiful Sassy!

As a South African, born and raised in Cape Town in the Cape Flats, I can say that Cape Town is super developed, even in the poorer parts of the Cape Flats. Cape Town is lovely city, but Cape Town is also full of shit, especially in regards to the work places and the oh so present nuanced racism within it, and also general maintenance and infrastructure, in the white areas, there are generally better maintenance and the city refuses to build low cost housing close to the CBD, they make sure to keep it at the outskirts of the city. That being said, the Big Cities in South Africa are pretty great, but it's the smaller cities that has all the charm.

The same happens all over the world no doubt, but in South Africa and especially Cape Town, it's still remnants of damaging and the majority of those that were at the bitter end of the stick in the past are still the people that's at the end of the stick. In Cape Town it's an unfortunate reality that they try to certain pockets of the population away from the opportunity centres. Hence the nuanced racism and that doubles down within many work places. You will find low cost housing popping up all over middle income and even upper middle income Coloured suburbs. You won't find the same thing in white suburbs, in work places it's not uncommon to find young white folk in some of the highest positions, even though they're less qualified than those they're managing. It's no accident why Cape Town is always called the most racist city in South Africa.

Moved to Cape Town 10 years ago. Grew up in Buea and Limbe, two towns in Cameroon, with the former perched on the slopes of Mt Cameroon and later a seaside resort. So Cape Town reminds me very much of home; mountains and beaches. Your assessment is very accurate. Cape Town is quite different from other South African towns and cities. It is a very eurocentric metropolis if we live in the Southern Suburbs, City Bowl, and Atlantic Seaboard. However, experiences in the Cape Flats might be quite different and at times shocking, a legacy of the city's brutal past

Johannesburg had the buses before Cape Town. Including the Fast Train. On top of the Metro Bus, there is Reya Vaya, and the Gautrain Buses. Over that the Gautrain is even now extending to the Westrand and further East Rand. Connecting both the major airports Lanseria Airport in Westrand. There is new City coming up by Lanseria. Look how Waterfall Midrand just mushroomed in just a space of 5 years. I will educate you on South Africa. Pretoria also has their bus system. It is the same. Cape Town followed after Johannesburg. Johannesburg has higher salary median, etc. Cape Town is also great and big. But the money is in Gauteng. The richest province. Johannesburg the city GDP is more than 7 times the economy of Rwanda for instance. 76 billion US$ versus 10 billion US$ .. Some countries can be equated to cities like East London.

South Africa is complex, remember we've been living separately for about 100 years, our cultures are not the same and everyone stick with their own, most of the time is not simply black white. Even in high cooparate setup you will notice white grouped together and blacks grouped together. It's not always that we poor and rich. People in South African find certain things enjoyable and comfortable and whites have their own comfort. Another things we don't push to be together each group find their space enjoyable without having to force them selfs into a different cultural nuisance. For an example shisanyama and a restaurant mostly blacks would prefere shisanyama and whites restaurant it's. Another thing is some black prefere township arrange because of its cultural community workings Than posh setup were, everyone is on their own. We do have serious problem of inquiality but after 25+ years with stats being accurate things are better than before. The difference is that in the old days the poor were invisible because of communal traditional setup. Now with western culture being the norm people are disconnecting and others are falling off the grace of communal responsibility.

You’ll find all African countries represented there, all the way from north to our southern neighbours) KZN(city of Durban has warm beaches compared to CT) , Limpopo(the best safaris in Africa, period!), Northern Cape(least populated province), North west, Mpumalanga and Eastern Cape. Also the bus system exists in other big cities too eg Tswhane(Pretoria), Johannesburg& Durban…work similar. All the best with your studies and stay in SA, welcome. Edit: also thanks for honestly talking the differences in poor vs rich in SA, that’s still racially pronounced in SA because of our apartheid history. Millions of rich and middle class Black, Indian(you find big population of Indians in Durban) and Coloured (majority race of ppl in CT& western Cape) ppl but the real wealthy of SA still skewed towards white SAns who gained most of their wealth through unfair advantages given to them by apartheid laws eg land & natural resource stealing& job reservations. Also glad you touched on the pronounced racial dynamics of SA, can’t live in SA and not learn to nuance about impact of global dominance of whiteness…guess that’s the most unfortunate unique aspect about SA& Namibia to rest of continent. Black SAns identify Black first before African or their ethnicity eg Tswana,Xhosa or Zulu; ppl had to fight to be respected as Black and human before anything else.
