Let’s hope we’ll get refunds for non-delivery, Mr Pres
Shwa’s jaw crushed the floor in disbelief after President Cyril Ramaphosa said he was refunding the bogus Phala Phala buffalo transaction as if it were an epic customer satisfaction move.
The phantom Sudanese businessman Hazim Mustafa has allegedly demanded a refund of his $580,000 Christmas buffalo purchase.
“We have to repay him,” Ramaphosa declared. “It’s only fair. He made a claim, and we must follow through.”
The Phala Phala farm scandal erupted when it was revealed that $580,000 in cold, hard cash had been hidden in a sofa – money allegedly paid by Mustafa for a herd of buffalo that were never delivered or collected.
Was there ever a Sudanese businessman named Hazim Mustafa, or is he just another customer service myth?
Ramaphosa demonstrates that even shady, fictitious transactions deserve the utmost respect and adherence to non-existent return policies.
Shwa wonders if the South African government will start issuing refunds for other dubious transactions.
Can citizens look forward to money-back guarantees on potholes, power outages, and political promises? At least South Africans now have a new mantra: If you can’t deliver, just refund it.
