taking a morning walk at the East London beachfront, creating some excitement among morning joggers, and he generously took selfies with them. I also joined in the fun.

Mbeki was removed on the eve of him speaking at the United Nations in New York. He didnt go becoz Zuma and his NEC in Sept 2008 meant to humiliate him. They forced him to leave 'now'. Today Zuma is finaly recalled. Guess who wants 3 mnths to attend a Brics Summit. Karma baba.
Elon Musk freely abusing his platform to spread lies about our country, South Africa. You are so irresponsible for this because you know there is no genocide of white people in South Africa. Do better and use your global status to build than to destroy a nation with lies.
SAPS vehicle transporting prisoners collided head-on with a Ford Ranger bakkie, on M1 South between Corlet Drive and Athol Oakland road in Jozi. City's emergency sercives says this was after the bakkie driver allegedly lost control amid a road rage incident with another driver.
Inkulu into ese Fort Hare and whoever is involved must be a protected big fish, quite high up in the echelons of criminal networks ravaging our country. You cant have key people with potential crucial evidence that could lead to the arrest of perpetrators being killed like this.
We have seen some crazy moments in South Africa. But I have never seen our country descending to such a nationwide panic mode because of a planned protest march. Even the whole national army nayo ngathi iyatatazela nje, they post and delete. Why was this posted and deleted?
A month ago a doctor was killed inside his own surgery in Gqeberha. I never expected this dramatic twist. Somehow I was convinced it was the random criminal work of amaphara. Kanti. 😳
Isnt it funny to hate somebody so much, but still use him non-stop to generate content which you sell through your several platforms, to make money to pay your salaries. Where would you be without him as your cash cow?
#Zuma
finally goes to court 13 years later to clear his name, something he was advised by
#Mbeki
to do in 2005. He refused and Mbeki fired him. With the help of his friends, they retaliated by recalling Mbeki. With Zuma powerless and alone now, he's back to square1.

ANC is breaking records in East London. By 8am the stadium and the overflow are bursting at the seams. By 10am the leadership is on stage and the formal programme immediately gets underway. This is unprecedented by ANC's very own standards

@eNCA
This was a blatant provocation. These people are tiring. I mean they r not journalists, yet they sought to force their way inside EFF offices to be part of its media briefing. What nonsense is that? Had they been dealt with properly they'd be crying "Genocide against white people
It's an embarrassing mess kodwa this thing of the Eastern Cape Premier and fraudulent degrees. If he loses this case, he would be lucky to retain the premiership after the 2024 elections.

Quite interesting that some are all of sudden raising constitutional issues when Zuma has to go but nobody said a word or put up a fight about Mbeki's constitutional rights when he was recalled. There were no transition talks & exit deals cut behind the scenes. Simply pushed out.

NEC Member Ronald Lamola tells me that the issue of whether to recall President Jacob Zuma is urgent. He says Zuma and his family also need to know what happens from now.
@eNCA
If the DA declares another opposition party - the EFF as the enemy number 1, what does that makes the governing ANC to the DA? With elections around the corner, you would think the DA would preoccupy itself with and capitalize on the weaknesses of the ruling party. Why the EFF?

I made this short summary from various newspaper articles about the Fish River Sun saga, hopefully, to help with context and missing links that some of us are still grappling with in this story.

Always the first suspicion. And also, seeing that the prisoners were coming from court, it would be interesting to know which case were they attending. That can give some direction as well.

Ramaphosa says Xhosa King Sigcawu raised 21 issues with him. None of them have to do with him or set to benefit him, but to benefit the community. Ramaphosa says this is a breathe of fresh air where leaders must be concerned with the upliftment of people.

So it's fine they must just break laws and release soldiers from barracks and put them in the streets to guard/police a protest march even if they do so without following proper processes?
Anybody who has seen iKomani lately will understand this protest. I was there in December last year and several times before. The collapse & the rapid deterioration of

The ANC is now going to vote with opposition parties in parliament to remove Zuma. All because he refuses to obey the decision of the NEC to resign. This is unprecedented.

Just hoping that somebody within that ANC NEC is documenting this unprecedented moment in our country' as Rev Chikane did 10 years ago with the recall of Mbeki. "The Removal of Jacob Zuma: How SA was pulled back from the brink of total collapse", it will be an interesting book.

How is it responsible when the same panic-driven government seeks to release soldiers to flood the streets without following the constitution as it manifests in the parliamentary processes?
If you could zoom in on that 73% of those who earn less than 6K a month, you will find that it's black people mostly. And you wonder why we have all these social problems confronting us. We really can't go on like this after all these years of freedom.
A staggering 73% of South Africans earn below R6 000 per month, and only 3.3% earn more than R52 000. This is according to the latest report by the Bureau of Market Research. Co-author of the report, Prof Carel van Aardt elaborates.

You know the country has reached unprecedented levels of political instability when citizens are apprehensive about sleeping because they are stressing about what their head of state or governing party could do to their country while sleeping.
So Herman Mashaba paid a whole 12 point 5 million rand to have a book written about him? Yhoo 😳😳Sure it's his money if it is, but 12 million sounds ridiculous for a book. Ibe yimalini ke ngoku iretail price yayo?

And to think that the army is currently led by a minister who is the former speaker of our national parliament - where the legislative processes governing the deployment of soldiers emanate from. Scary.

Very sad to see this. Sun International gave up on Fish River Sun bcoz it was not making money and was entangled in a protracted land claim which severely affected its revenue generation. Why govt bought it if they did not have a proper plan - as it seems now, to turn it around?
@MhlabaNkululeko
Unannounced visits to assess the quality of service delivery in govt facilities, use to be a popular thing in govt in the mid-2000s. As young reporters, we use to run around after Ministers who were seemingly fascinated with catching and embarrassing lazy, rude unsuspecting staff
