Engagement
A typical post picks up 383 interactions against 272K followers, an engagement rate of 0.141%. Measured over 17 original posts, its engagement rate beats 66% of 20,444 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 77K times each, and 0.497% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 28.3% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 17 posts sampled, 35% carry an image or video and 6% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 4.4K interactions, about 6.0x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #madlangacommission, #aad2026, #madlangacommision.

Compared with accounts its own size
Tomi Rikhotso's engagement rate beats 66% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 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 26% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 07:00 UTC, and Monday 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.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 35% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 6% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 35% 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.
- 6% 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 187 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.
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.

62 undocumented foreign nationals arrested, R525,000 dagga seized in Musina operation Limpopo police have arrested 62 undocumented foreign nationals and seized dagga worth an estimated R525,000 during a multidisciplinary Operation Retshepeng operation in Musina on Friday. Police seized 11 black plastic bags containing dagga, along with two scales, a roll of sellotape and a cellphone. One woman was arrested for allegedly dealing in dagga. Two people were arrested for allegedly selling liquor without a licence, while five others were arrested for contravening the Liquor Act. Another person was arrested for allegedly contravening the Immigration Act after overstaying in the country. Two suspects were also arrested for allegedly selling expired goods. Authorities further confiscated 48 alcohol products, beverage crates, soft drinks, cleaning products, skincare and hair products, baby powder, beans and packets of instant yeast. Traffic authorities issued 21 summonses and executed 27 warrants, while two maxi-taxis were impounded for allegedly operating without valid permits. The operation involved the South African Police Service, Border Management Authority, South African National Defence Force, Department of Home Affairs, Musina Local Municipality and traffic authorities, among other law enforcement agencies. Limpopo provincial police commissioner Lieutenant General Jan Scheepers said multidisciplinary operations such as Retshepeng would continue in the Musina and Beitbridge border area to disrupt criminal activity and enforce the law. The suspects are expected to appear in the Musina Magistrate’s Court on various charges.

- What is Tomi Rikhotso's engagement rate on X?
- Tomi Rikhotso (@TomiRikhotso) has an engagement rate of 0.141%, based on the median interactions across 17 original posts from the last 30 days against 272,319 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.141%, Tomi Rikhotso sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,991 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 @TomiRikhotso have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 66% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 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 @TomiRikhotso post?
- Most posts go out around 07:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.07 posts per day across the measured window.
