R2billion stolen in one hospital. South Africa is not poor, it is poorly managed.

@lazyorlaylah Excuse me??

I went on a date with a pilot and he ended up crashing the plane as we were landing. When I say I have the most nuts dating stories, I mean it 😭

@mayaonmoney I'm South Africans, used to do over 100km per day, now i do less than 50km per week. Taxis are way cheaper than driving now.

South Africans bought 35% less fuel in April compared to March, according to new data from Discovery Insure. The analysis, based on telematics and fuel reward card swipes from over 200,000 clients, shows how motorists responded to the fuel price increase on 1 April, which saw petrol climb by R3,06 per litre and diesel by as much as R7,51 per litre. The analysis also showed that fuel transactions dropped by 28% over the same period. At the same time, driving behaviour also shifted. Trips taken were down 10%, and the total distance travelled dropped by 9%. Even when removing the Easter weekend (3 to 6 April 2026) from the data, trips and distance travelled were still down by 8%.

They would rather spend money on venue hire, catering to tell the contractors that they don't have money to pay them. Priorities.

I attended an event and the aunties only asked me when I’m getting my masters. The world is finally healing. ❤️‍🩹

Trump administration defunded WHO, if there's another pandemic. We are cooked.

@NoupebN @rawsalerts He is the Chief virus.

@rawsalerts So why does viruses come up only when Trump is president?

🚨#BREAKING: A viral outbreak aboard a cruise ship has left three people dead, with five additional suspected cases are now under investigation. Officials have confirmed at least one case of Hantavirus.

In response to my parliamentary question, SAPS has now provided murder detection rates for the country’s Top 35 high-contact crime stations. The numbers are deeply concerning. In 2024/25, the average murder detection rate across these 35 stations was only about 7.3%. The median was 6.4%. That means that, at many of South Africa’s most violent police stations, the overwhelming majority of murder cases are not being recorded as detected. The lowest murder detection rates in 2024/25 include: Jeppe, 1.44% Nyanga, 1.49% Johannesburg Central, 1.87% Hillbrow, 2.54% Diepsloot, 3.11% Mfuleni, 3.48% Alexandra, 3.51% Umlazi, 3.59% Harare, 3.71% Ivory Park, 3.83% Khayelitsha, 4.19% Tembisa, 4.26% Moroka, 4.28% Mamelodi East, 4.69% These are not marginal failures. These are some of the police stations where murder, gang violence, robbery, extortion and firearm-related crime place enormous pressure on communities. If a station has a murder detection rate below 5%, then families are effectively being told that the system is unlikely to identify and process a suspect in the vast majority of murder cases. That is not justice. Only 9 of the 35 listed stations had a murder detection rate of 10% or higher in 2024/25. Only 4 were above 15%: Thohoyandou, Temba, Mankweng and Rustenburg. This exposes the real crisis in detective capacity. Visible policing matters. Arrests matter. Operations matter. But if murders are not properly investigated, detected and prepared for prosecution, then violent offenders remain in communities and victims’ families are left without answers. SAPS cannot keep speaking about intelligence-led policing while these detection rates remain so low. A murder investigation requires skilled detectives, crime intelligence support, working vehicles, functioning ICT systems, forensic capacity, proper docket management, witness protection, prosecutor involvement and station-level leadership that tracks every serious case. The answer also confirms that SAPS has not yet conducted an internal correlation analysis between equipment shortages and detection rates. That is unacceptable. If detectives do not have the tools to do the job, SAPS must measure that impact. It cannot claim to be evidence-based while failing to test whether shortages in vehicles, computers, phones, forensic support and basic investigative equipment are affecting murder detection rates. South Africans deserve a police service that can do more than arrive at a murder scene. They deserve a police service that can identify the killer, build the case, support the prosecution and secure accountability. The Portfolio Committee on Police must now demand a station-by-station turnaround plan for murder detection at these high-crime stations. Every unsolved murder leaves a family without justice and a community less safe. IC

@byronrode Hybrids never looked this attractive before....

At the beginning of April, my car cost ~R1800/tank After the April increase, it went up to about R2600-2700/tank On Wednesday once fuel goes up, it will cost me over R3000/tank. I use at minimum 2 tanks a months (after I pay my dad's weekly fuel to fetch the boys from school every day). I have to make adjustments to my budget to afford this. I cannot imagine the folks that don't have the budget for this.

@RediTlhabi Is this satire???
