@UnityInSA @Newzroom405 I believe I have explained what must happen, you are saying a lot but honestly Solly must follow the process . That’s it .

You are correct and I assume that he will now probably go that route. But what I find surprising is that the ANC (and others) seem to be resisting the move to get telco companies onto EEIP. If one looks at the companies that were granted approval to use EEIP, they are from various sectors, eg. ICT, manufacturing, construction, agriculture, maritime, automotive & financial services. The question I have is: why did they exclude Telco companies? I suspect that it is something to do with the ownership of some of the telco/mobile companies in South Africa. They could have allowed them to use EEIP a long time ago, but for some reason they kept them on 30% BBBEE ownership. I am sure that if one digs deep, it will come down to money and beneficiaries.

We warned him; “unfortunately, he chose to be legally delinquent,” says Parliament Communications Portfolio Committee chair Khusela Diko. This followed Icasa striking down Communications Minister Solly Malatsi's hopes of securing Elon Musk’s Starlink by introducing equity equivalent investment programmes as a substitute for broad-based black economic empowerment.

@PatWiehahn @Newzroom405 He must follow the law , he has been advised on how to do it why is he not following the process of amending the law ? Why are you guys emotional about something so basic ?

@Newzroom405 Why do you hate him so much, because he is DA? Your maturity is lacking when it comes to proffessional behaviour You hate white and anybody that are more succesful than you.

@UnityInSA @Newzroom405 But Solly can follow the law to amend or insert EEIP 🤷🏽‍♂️

The ANC is hell bent on clinging onto the 30%- BBBEE ownership model, instead of moving the telecoms sector to EEIP. EEIP has far more broad benefits than the 30% BBBEE ownership. Its quite obvious why the ANC wants to cling onto 30% BBBEE ownership.

@against_biased @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi Who will approve EEIP proposal(s) if we were to go by your interpretation , ICASA or DTIC ?

@ianzo100 @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi 9b of which act?

UPDATE: Well that’s that then. We meet in Parliament news24.com/business/tech/…

@against_biased @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi But those alternatives could excludes EEIP 🤷🏽‍♂️, as a body that approves licenses they have embedded rights to assert their interpretation and empowerment objectives. Who will approve EEIP submission in this case DTCI or ICASA ?

@ianzo100 @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi Icasa act refers to the BBBEE Act for alternatives to the 30% HDI ownership in the ECA Act. ECA and Icasa Acts were written to have the BBBEE as the authority on transformation schemes in all of SA.

@against_biased @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi 2/2 the act is not always aligned,for example the transport sector codes ,it’s not gazetted .The verification manual is not gazetted therefore not aligned,the sectors codes etc However consultations process is legislated in all above.I don’t think section 9 b approved EEIP yet .

@against_biased @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi 1/2. I don’t know about that🤷‍♀️ ,I am not sure the act that governs icasa holistically the powers it has & its application . There’s insertions, adjustments& construct that particularly differ in the B-bbee including sector charters that have particular processes to follow .

@MaxduPreez Perhaps you should have taken the matter to cc , such a supervision statement.

Yes, we South Africans deserve the full truth about Phala Phala. But the feeding frenzy by MK and EFF with their sudden, new-found love of the constitution & the judiciary reeks of blatant opportunism & cheap populism. Let the processes unfold - and be careful what you wish for

@LCabonena , snap 🫰 the impersonator

I'm speaking on behalf of South Africans. We must change Winnie Mandela Drive to Babita Deokaran Drive.

Suggested temporary GNU compromise Presidential candidates to take over from Cyril Ramaphosa after he steps down, until National Elections in 2029: Velenkosini Hlabisa (IFP) Songezo Zibi (Rise Mzansi) Bantu Holomisa (UDM) In the past, I would have added Gayton McKenzie (PA).

@wond4733 @collen_sambo2 At some point you’ll must be arrested , the constitution doesn’t say take law into your own hands either , you are not cops . You can vote differently have you thought of that ? South Africa ga se ya lona fela , this is madness thinking only you are affected by corruption mxm

@ianzo100 @collen_sambo2 In South Africa we will do so n u should do wtever is ryte 4 ur country...us in SA our police n judiciary is corrupt n failing us..by the way our constitution says ppl shall govern if government fails.

People will call Malema evil when this domkop goes to prison for contempt of court. He’s now saying that Malema has cancer.

@wond4733 @collen_sambo2 So we must do that same when our sisters are murdered by their boyfriends ? When our children are raped ? When our houses are broken into ? I mean almost all of us have experienced crime and corruption ? Must we take law into our own hands ?

@collen_sambo2 We must report 2 da corrupt departments? Hw long we hve bin reportin n even trustin politicians 2 pt pressure on government instead dey defend lawlessnes lke u .I cn gv u details of cases dt u won't solve.so don't think we a mad ok.jst enjoy drug money usyeke

@against_biased @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi Or mainly empowers icasa to alter or increase transformation targets 🤷‍♀️

@against_biased @KhuselaS @ntebomar @SollyMalatsi Does it not make reference to other conditions of compliance such as management control , skills development ,esd etc ?

@Bagobe_sgobe94 @MmusiMaimane

@MmusiMaimane Fortunate enough it won’t, we definitely know one of our own. Thing is wena Mmusi you wanna make your problem ours, that’s one of the reason you will never lead this country!

You see! It always ends like this.

@msdende @SABCNews I think you need to follow more of the commission work so far . That’s all .

@SABCNews Imagine worrying about a commission in SA while that small Hormuz ticker means fuel and fertilizer prices will hit us back home! Let's get serious!

MADLANGA COMMISSION | Warrant Officer Boy Steve Phakula tells the commission he only assisted at the scene because he was available.

We wrote to the Higher Education Minister, Buti Manamela, requesting the full record, recordings, transcripts, attendance registers, deliberations, and minutes of the Board Meetings relating to the appointment of SETA CEOs, as required by law. He responded that he does not have them. How can you take such a consequential decision, exercising public power, without a proper record of the meeting, the deliberations, or the process followed? We are going to uncover what appears to be a cover-up surrounding the irrational and unlawful appointment of SETA CEOs. Buti is turning out to be a monumental disappointment. It will not end well for him!

@JuliRee_Mts 40% was not a rude awakening neah , the arrogance still persists.

The legitimate CIC !!! Akaydawo 🔥🤌🏾 Those who want to lead ka back door must relax !!!!!

@Our_DA You are caught in the middle of nowhere, we are watching your moves and acutely so , right now we see one foot in foot out . Let’s see how you dancing but I can tell you now you wanting to find a balancing figure won’t work , to sit in middle is not going to help you .

📢 Phala Phala: This remains an ANC-made crisis, rooted in serious unanswered questions about the President’s conduct and the ANC’s long record of shielding its own leaders from accountability. The DA will continue to be guided by the Constitution: da.org.za/2026/05/ramaph…

@Our_DA It must be nice to play “ don’t bite the hand the feeds you “ lmao the level of micromanaged posturing is insane . You don’t know you coming or going ag shame

President Ramaphosa’s decision to take the Section 89 Panel report on review must not be used to delay the work of Parliament. Parliament must also now take urgent legal advice on the implications of the President’s incoming review. 📝Full DA statement: da.org.za/2026/05/ramaph…
