Komphela left Chiefs after the fan violence at the Moses Mabhida Stadium after Free State Stars beat Amakhosi 2-0 over the weekend.
“South Africans are not a patient nation, the whole world is in a culture of everything is instant … instant gratification that’s why people don’t want to go to school.

“The bamboo tree, five years this tree the seed is under ground, but in eight months as soon as it breaks ground it grows 80 mitres. God has a vision, even yourself, you are not born a man with teeth and everything, when you go through the principles of nature it all about patience.”
