Excited to finally share the first video in a powerful series produced for COSATU's #CostOfLiving campaign. Ahead of tomorrow's nationwide Day of Action, we're amplifying voices of ordinary South Africans feeling the squeeze. This is more than a campaign, it's a call to action.

Applied over a year ago. Told to collect in Randburg. Randburg says it's in Durban. Durban says they don't have it. @Leon_Schreib a year later and nobody can tell me where my ID is. In South Africa, even your identity can go missing @HomeAffairsSA

@Musa_Khawula Haaibo @Musa_Khawula --- you like causing trouble. Where does she say it's @Anele's husband?

Lulama Hughes opens up about being humbled by Anele Mgudlwa's husband Bonelela Mgudlwa while dining at a restaurant with her very white old friend.

@HomeAffairsSA you have completely ignored my messages for assistance to you. I've been waiting over a year for my ID. Randburg says Durban has it. Durban says they don't. At this point, I'm convinced my ID has a better social life than I. Can someone @HomeAffairsSA please tell me where it is?

We are open this Saturday and Sunday to support the Voter Registration Weekend! Collect your SmartID or apply this weekend and be ready to VOTE! #DeliveringDignityForAll #TeamHomeAffairs

@AardvarkBloody @ShakesMashaba_ 🤣

@ShakesMashaba_ The great thing is he can analyse his own chances beforehand and analyse his loss afterwards.

The ANC’s mayoral candidate in Johannesburg is Lukhona Mnguni.

Sbwl cuddles that don't lead to tlof tlof 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️

Is @SANDF_ZA still in communities fighting crime, drugs and zama zamas? Genuine question. 🤔 No drug dens shut down. No sign of an integrated service response for those battling addiction. Communities are still living with the same problems. What happened to the intervention?

@gmail @00zzabab please assist @gmail ...i've been locked out of my account. It says 'account disabled'.

#youthunemployment is about more than jobs—it’s about pathways to sustainable livelihoods. In this @News24 piece, Prof Lauren Graham, Prof Ariane de Lannoy & Oliver Meth show why temporary jobs must be paired with support for lasting work. news24.com/business/opini… #youthmonth

#CabinetReshuffle IRONIC that @jsteenhuisen is been demoted to DM... @Chriseldalewis wasn't he the one that said deputy ministers must be abolished?! 🤔

@marcia_breeze he's not been fired from what I understand. He is been demoted to DM and replaced by Aucamp. Steenhuizen will move to DM @the_dtic

Can the DA firing him as their appointed representative result in him being ineligible to be a minister? If so, why doesn't Hill-Lewis fire him?

@MzwaneleManyi No Jimmy, that was a fall. He fell flat on his back. That's no "stumble".

C'mon MDM News. The man stumbled because the stage was overcrowded, got up instantly, and continued dancing. Yet you've chosen to turn an ordinary mishap into a story. Why be so unnecessarily vile?

58,1% of #youth neither working, studying nor in training. That's nearly half a generation shut out of opportunity. I co-authored this article drawing on analysis of #QLFS on why temporary jobs aren't enough to address #youthunemployment #youthdaysa news24.com/business/opini…

@Sunflowerreal @Yfm @djsbu @HomeAffairsSA @Leon_Schreib hello @HomeAffairsSA can i get some assistance here?? Your phone lines just ring and go unanswered. I've sent countless emails and NO RESPONSE! @Leon_Schreib this is more than a delay. It's lack of accountability.

@Sunflowerreal @Yfm @djsbu After more than a year of being sent between Randburg and Durban, I'm seriously considering camping out at Home Affairs until someone can tell me where my ID actually is. How does an ID vanish into thin air for over a year? @HomeAffairsSA @Leon_Schreib

THE FAMOUS ID APPLICATION HOSTAGE THAT HAPPENED LIVE ON RADIO @Yfm @djsbu 👇🏿 Kabelo Thibedi is a man remembered for his dramatic hostage taking at a government office to obtain his long delayed identity document. On the 30 November 2005 the 21 year old walked into the Department of Home Affairs regional offices in central Johannesburg and held a female staff member Lanelle Small, hostage inside an office for around six hours. Armed only with a toy gun, Thibedi demanded the immediate issuance and delivery of his ID book. His extreme action stemmed from years of deep frustration ,he had waited more than 2 years, submitted 9 unsuccessful applications, and had already lost a job because he lacked the required document. The standoff captured national attention. Radio stations across the country received calls from listeners who expressed strong sympathy for his battle against bureaucratic inefficiency. While barricaded in the office, Thibedi called in the popular youth station YFM and spoke live with DJ Sbu, who suddenly found himself acting as an on air negotiator, trying to calm the young man and warn him of the potential consequences. The broadcast dramatically heightened public awareness, drawing thousands of supportive reactions. To end the crisis Home Affairs officials arranged for Thibedi’s completed ID book to be flown by helicopter from Pretoria to Johannesburg. Once it was handed over, police used stun grenades to storm the room and arrest him. In 2006, he was convicted of kidnapping and sentenced to five years in prison. He later appealed the sentence. In October 2009, the South Gauteng High Court backdated it, allowing him to avoid serving time in actual jail.
