The upcoming elections should be used as a platform in defence of the ANC, el presidente said at the funeral – yes, funeral – service of the 10 volunteers who died in last week’s bus accident.
Juju has warned the ANC that, should it continue to respond violently to peaceful protests, the EFF will “remove this government through the barrel of a gun.”
He’s hardly switched off the mic and folks have already started whispering that Zuma and the ANC are covering something up with the Arms Deal report… have a look.
Ai Malema, isn’t it a little too soon? The EFF leader has blamed the ANC for the death of 10 volunteers on their way back from the ruling party’s manifesto launch in PE on Sunday.
There is a popular maxim in Sesotho that says, “Moiketsi ha a llelwe,” which loosely translated, means one cannot feel sorry for someone who has brought it upon himself.
Well sh**, there goes any chance of South Africans seeing a great civil servant do what he does best for the good of the country.
Oh dear; the ruling party expected 110 000 voters to attend their manifesto launch in Nelson Mandela Bay this weekend, but only about 30 000 people showed up.
The secretary general of the ANC made it very clear that the party won’t fire Zuma, for fear of another COPE or EFF rising.
So the SABC’s COO, who gave himself three raises in one year and who lied about passing matric believes that the national broadcaster shouldn’t be expected to turn a profit… how so?
Phumzile van Damme has thrown down the gauntlet in a scathing new letter aimed at the heart of today’s ANC. What will the once-great liberation movement’s response be… if any?
Jeepers Mr. Mantashe, what’s next… gulags?
For the first time since the end of the struggle, opposition parties are banding together for a common purpose; the removal of a disgraced ANC leadership.
While opposition parties prepare for today’s impeachment vote in parliament, South Africans from across the board seem to have made up their minds already. Have a look.
El presidente told supporters that black people must ‘think about their poverty’ and use their majority to counteract white people’s motives come election day.
Gauteng ANC members are breaking rank and rebelling, reportedly because party leadership decided not to recall Zuma and members are organising a march against their own party.
Speaker of the National Assembly and national chairperson of the ANC, Baleka Mbete, doesn’t seem to understand last week’s Constitutional Court ruling all that well. Or, like Thandi Modise she just didn’t bother reading it.
Dear Mr. President, I do not accept your apology. You stood before the country and lied to our faces. You take us for fools. You look down on us. You belittle us. You insult our intelligence. Because…
EFF leader Julius Malema claims that Jacob Zuma has been smuggling money for the Gupta family out of the country.
Malema’s on a roll! First, he gets his degree and now he’s calling for early General Elections and breaking up parly… well he sure is confident and confidence is key.
Earlier today the Constitutional Court ruled that the National Assembly’s decision to set aside the public protector’s remedial action was unconstitutional and ordered that Zuma pays for his privileges.
As the Constitutional Court and pretty much everyone else in SA prepares for the ruling on Zuma’s Nkandla case tomorrow, let’s take a peek at the house where it all began.
There are several aspects to the current “state capture” debate. To start with, there is nothing new about state capture. It has always been the ANC’s openly proclaimed, and profoundly unconstitutional, policy to capture the state to promote its own political and ideological interests.
Someone quick! Check if Mac Maharaj has died; Cyril appears to be channelling his spirit.
We need to find new ways to think about South African cities as drivers of innovation and growth. E-tolls should be a live option in the future city landscape. An implacable opposition, of the kind offered by OUTA, might not ultimately be that helpful.
