A typical post picks up 102 interactions against 609K followers, an engagement rate of 0.017%. Measured over 52 original posts, its engagement rate beats 41% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 15K times each, and 0.662% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.53% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.5 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 73% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 52 posts sampled, 98% carry an image or video and 21% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.9K interactions, about 28x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #voteanc2026, #growinggautengtogether, #schoolsofspecialization.

Compared with accounts its own size

Panyaza Lesufi's engagement rate beats 41% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 37% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.017%, Panyaza Lesufi sits above the 10th percentile of the 212,656 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.025%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 212,656 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,418 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

  • 98% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 0% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 131 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    We got them! Date: 19 September 2026 THREE SUSPECTS LINKED TO A MURDER CASE IN ESTHER PARK-BEHIND BARS CITY OF EKURHULENI _On Wednesday 16 September 2026 at approximately 16h20, a 41-year-old male was fatally shot, at an intersection of Parklands and Cawood Streets, in Esther Park. The suspects fled the scene in a blue VW Jetta 5 sedan and a case of murder, was opened at the Sebenza police station, for further investigations. Upon verification, the getaway vehicle, was found to be linked to two (2) other cases of hijacking and murder. Following credible information received, a joint intelligence-driven operation, was activated comprising the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police Department (EMPD) Northern Region Task Team, South African Police Service (SAPS) Crime Intelligence, and Blue Hawks Security personnel. Within 24 hours of the incident, the team worked tirelessly to track and intercept the suspects. One suspect, was apprehended in the Spartan area, while two (2) other suspects, were arrested at the Enhlanzeni Hostel, together with the vehicle, used in commission of the crime. One (1) suspect led Officers to a house, at the Allandale Farm in Mayibuye, where a Beretta pistol with a filed-off serial number and 17 rounds of live ammunition, believed to have been used in the murder, was recovered. The three (3) suspects have been detained and will face charges of 'possession of a suspected hijacked/robbed motor vehicle, murder, and possession of an unlicensed firearm with ammunition'. The Chief of Police, Mr. IJ Mapiyeye, has commended the Officers for their swift response, dedication, and collaborative effort that led to the arrests. The City of Ekurhuleni wishes to send a clear and stern warning to all perpetrators of crime. Ekurhuleni is not a haven for criminal activity. Law enforcement agencies are on the ground, working around the clock to root out these senseless and heinous crimes committed in the City. Those responsible will face the full might of the law. END For more information, the media may contact EMPD Spokesperson Chief Superintendent, Kelebogile Thepa. on 072 855 2998 or [email protected].

What is Panyaza Lesufi's engagement rate on X?
Panyaza Lesufi (@Lesufi) has an engagement rate of 0.017%, based on the median interactions across 52 original posts from the last 30 days against 609,031 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.017%, Panyaza Lesufi sits above the 10th percentile of the 212,656 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @Lesufi have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 41% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @Lesufi post?
Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 2.5 posts per day across the measured window.

Keep going
