Vincent Tshituka scores big ambassadorship post Sharks

The South African12 hours ago

Vincent Tshituka, known for his powerful presence on the rugby field with the Sharks, has quickly become a household name across KwaZulu-Natal and beyond.
Now, he's stepping into the property world as the official brand ambassador for the Devmco Group, one of KwaZulu-Natal's leading master developers.
This new role marks an exciting chapter for Vincent, who is keen to build a future beyond rugby. 'I'm excited about my ambassador role with Devmco Group,' Vincent shares.
'I've already learnt so much about property and development through my involvement in the Salt Rock City project. I want this partnership to benefit everyone involved.
I need to give back as much as I gain. I'm committed to learning and getting stuck into the details of their projects.'
Vincent's enthusiasm for property development is clear. He's not content with just lending his name. Instead, he's diving deep into understanding the property cycle and development processes.
His hands-on approach will see him working closely with the team behind the Sibaya Coastal Precinct, a flagship development that's reshaping the KwaZulu-Natal coastline.
Schalk Theunissen, Managing Director of Devmco Group, praises the partnership. 'Vincent brings more than fame.
He brings authenticity and a grounded presence to a sector often filled with jargon. We're proud to have him on board.
Our goal is to build communities, educate buyers, and help people make smarter property decisions. Vincent shares these values.
He's thoughtful and driven to understand this world and share that knowledge with his teammates and the wider community.'
Vincent's journey is inspiring. Born in Lubumbashi, Democratic Republic of Congo, and raised in Johannesburg, he has risen through the ranks of South African rugby, according to Sharks Rugby .
Highlights include co-captaining the Sharks to a Currie Cup victory and debuting for the Lions Super Rugby team in 2019.
His recent Springbok training camp inclusion is a career milestone, signalling more exciting times ahead.
This partnership between Vincent and Devmco Group grew naturally. Both parties bonded over shared values—community impact, growth, and the critical need for property education.
Vincent's involvement in the Salt Rock City launch showcased the genuine synergy between the athlete and the developer.
'Vincent's role goes beyond just representing a brand,' Theunissen adds. 'He's part of something meaningful.
Following the successful Salt Rock City launch, we're thrilled to have him involved in the upcoming release of the final residential opportunities at Salta Estate, Sibaya.
Devmco Group is known for bold, people-centred developments across KwaZulu-Natal. Their mission is clear: put people and purpose at the heart of real estate.
With Vincent Tshituka on board, they're setting the stage for a new era.
One where collaboration meets education, and where South Africans can make informed, meaningful decisions about their property futures.

Kaizer Chiefs set to snatch rising star Ime Okon from rivals

Kaizer Chiefs are reportedly closing in on a major signing ahead of the 2025/2026 season, with highly-rated defender Ime Okon believed to be on the brink of joining the Soweto giants. The 21-year-old's contract with SuperSport United ends this month, allowing him to leave as a free agent, and Chiefs have wasted no time in making their move. After lifting the Nedbank Cup, Amakhosi are determined to build a squad capable of challenging on all fronts under incoming coach Nasreddine Nabi. Okon, who has drawn attention with his physical presence and calmness on the ball, is understood to be a key piece in that puzzle. 'They (Kaizer Chiefs) see him (Ime Okon) as a long-term solution at centre-back. I mean, he is only 21 and he could challenge (Inacio) Miguel, who is almost 30, for that position. On top of that, his contract expires soon,' a source told The South African . Okon previously caught the eye of scouts abroad, having attended trials with Danish top-tier side FC Midtjylland and Ukrainian giants Dynamo Kyiv over the past 18 months. Despite impressing, no deal came to fruition, and he returned to see out his contract with Matsatsantsa. This presented Chiefs with a golden opportunity, and they appear poised to capitalise. Okon recently featured for Bafana Bafana in the COSAFA Cup. Which further strengthens his reputation as one of South Africa's most promising young centre-backs. His potential, youth, and international exposure make him an attractive prospect for a club eager to rebuild and restore glory. With negotiations believed to be at an advanced stage. And it looks increasingly likely that Okon will don the black and gold of Amakhosi next season. Will Okon be good enough to wear the Kaizer Chiefs jersey?

Sharks vs Bulls: Siya Kolisi fired up for Loftus showdown

Based on the heavy criticism directed their way, you could be forgiven for thinking the Sharks have had a poor season in the United Rugby Championship, but Springbok skipper Siya Kolisi said all that matters is putting in a strong performance in their semi-final at Loftus Versfeld, in Pretoria, on Saturday. The Sharks finished the regular season third on the 16-team table, behind only the Bulls and Leinster. The Sharks scraped through their quarter-final against Munster, winning in a rare penalty shootout. One of the reasons there's been much criticism of the Sharks is that they have no fewer than 12 Springboks in their squad. Though regular captain Eben Etzebeth has been ruled out for the semi, it's not much of a disruption for Kolisi to take the captaincy reins. His first point of order was batting aside unwarranted jabs at his side. "I know this is a massive topic, there are many reasons why we haven't played to our full potential. A lot of people are looking at the results and the way we play,' Kolisi told "The most important thing is we are winning, and we know there will be a day where we will play well. We have a lot of confidence [in beating the Bulls] as our team has done this before. We have beaten the Bulls three times this season, but we know all of that means nothing and it will be a new fixture this weekend. We have a lot of confidence heading into the match.' During the penalty shootout with Munster, Sharks scrumhalf Jaden Hendrickse mysteriously lay prone on the field with apparent cramp after taking his kick. He was then seen winking at Munster's Jack Crowley in a clear act of gamesmanship, which sparked outrage from the visitors and on social media. Kolisi, though, gave his full backing to Hendrickse following the incident. "There is absolutely nothing wrong with what Jaden did there. These things happen in rugby, and other teams have done similar things before. Sometimes people also say things to me in a game, and the onus is on the person and what they do when they are provoked." "There are players in Jack's team [Munster] who also do the exact same thing to other players from the opposition. It's just that this time on the day, it was heard from the referee's mic. We stand with Jaden!" @Michael_Sherman IOL Sport

Trump dismisses Musk's call after public fallout, considers selling Tesla

US President Donald Trump and Elon Musk (R) speak in the Oval Office before departing the White House in Washington, DC, on the way to Trump's residence at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida US President Donald Trump has no plans to speak to billionaire Elon Musk and may even ditch his red Tesla car, the White House said Friday after a stunning public divorce fraught with risk for both men. Trump's camp insisted that he wanted to move on from the row with the South African-born Musk, with officials telling AFP that the tech tycoon had requested a call but that the president was not interested. The Republican instead intended to focus on getting the US Congress to pass his "big, beautiful" spending bill -- Musk's harsh criticisms of which had triggered the astonishing meltdown on Thursday. Fallout from the blow-up between the world's richest person and its most powerful could be significant, as Trump risks political damage and Musk faces the loss of huge US government contracts. Trump phoned reporters at several US broadcast networks to insist that he was looking past the row. He called Musk "the man who has lost his mind" in a call to ABC and told CBS he was "totally" focused on the presidency. The White House meanwhile, squashed earlier reports that they would talk. "The president does not intend to speak to Musk today," a senior White House official told AFP on condition of anonymity. A second official said it was "true" that Musk had requested a call.
