Truly mysterious how local politics works. Is this not the very same Nkululeko Dunga who was fired as Ekurhuleni Finance MMC by ANC Mayor Xhakaza in 2024 who now lands the whole Gauteng Finance MEC job? Did I miss the part where his track record suddenly improved, or is “coalition politics” a new qualification on its own? The one area that needs critical focus in Gauteng right now, as literally everyone knows, is the judicious allocation of funds to fix infrastructure. Will this help fix Gauteng? How will his R179 billion budget be allocated?

I think we must distinguish between a Constitutional Democracy and a “young nation”. They are entirely different things. When the miracle of 1994 happened and the ending of Apartheid, it was a magnificent moment for rebuilding our economy as we were no longer pariahs - and by doing so, to create more jobs. It was a moment to close the equality gap, to build schools, end pit toilets, enhance education for all, and the same with healthcare. But there was an existing infrastructure in place - it wasn’t a start off nothing. But an opportunity to take a very unfair and unequal system, with a world class infrastructure in many areas - and to build on this. We must always be entirely factual and honest about our successes and failures equally, if we are to understand where things went right, or wrong, because failing to do so, and blaming it universally on “youth” won’t solve anything. Let’s just look at what Singapore and Dubai have achieved in 32 years. South Africa has abundant opportunities, but we must understand that unless we have the qualified people in the right jobs, we cannot succeed. Look at what is happening in Gqeberha (my hometown). A tragedy of note in how that city is falling apart. And we need world class governance. So long as our Auditor General reports on billions of misused funds, we cannot move forwards. I read an article just last week on a R32 million water tender awarded to a company with zero expertise nor equipment. And the missing funds from Gauteng healthcare facilities #BabitaDeokaran All these things need our attention Mr President and cannot and should not be brushed under the carpet of being “a young nation” 🙏 And 3 decades later is not a young nation either…

@NickHudsonCT Mindboggling that they still don't get it. Even the non MSM is in denial.

Nothing compared to the death on the streets that will come from Americans failing to wake up to the fact that their vote is irrelevant and their nation not sovereign because media and candidates are in the hands of parasitic bankers, and have been for decades.

Megyn Kelly issues warning, "You have to vote Republican. I don't care what you think about the Republican Party. You get death on the American streets if you vote Democrat... They opened the borders without a thought of what it would do."

I proudly endorse Geordin Hill-Lewis for Federal Leader of the DA. South Africa needs fighters, not passengers. The DA needs leadership with courage, discipline and the will to win. Geordin has proved he can govern. He is ready to lead from the front.
