At last, the good folks at the Daily Maverick have provided us with a lighter look at the Gupta saga. So, over your lunch break, check out this awesome Gupta Gollyword Glossary, coming at you on a barge. Out of a lotus flower.
Their list is pretty extensive (we encourage you to take a look), but here are our favourites:
Gupta: (coll. n.) A related group of self-important, self-involved individuals who believe one country’s future depends on their money.
Heligupta: (n.) A vehicle that flies in the face of protocol… and can land anywhere.
Atlull: (v.) The calm after #guptagate stops trending on Twitter, the media moves on to other stories and South Africans remember to get on with the business of living their lives.
Gollywood: (n.) Sunjay City, after tens of millions have been thrown at it for a single wedding.
Contraguption: (n.) How the Dalai Lama’s entry to SA was denied, but the Gupta wedding party had full access to a National Key Point and VIP blue light detail.
