@_thabang_m @FrankTalk0000 Hilux and Corollas sold more last I checked

The Taxi Industry is arguably Toyota’s biggest customer in SA, but I’ve never heard of any sponsorships meted out either for safety campaigns or general business development. Toyota however sponsors Afrikaner concerts and rugby match prizes.

@LwaziMBK @juniormlondy1 Is PRASA is under the Gauteng government?

Instead of improving PRASA who already has rail infrastructure, what does he want to do build a whole new rail service In any case they never take public participation on these proposals this is good as done whether anyone is for or against.

So the IDC just ran a paid News24 piece telling South Africa how great they are. Allow me to do something the IDC apparently cannot: basic maths. They say they approved R26.6 billion in “transformation funding” last year and “created or preserved” 15,000 jobs. That is R1,773,333 per job. One million, seven hundred and seventy-three thousand, three hundred and thirty-three rand. Per job. You could pay someone the average South African salary for nearly seven years with that money. Or you could give it to the IDC and they will “create or preserve” one job. Maybe. If the company does not end up in their R30 billion distress portfolio. Oh, did I not mention that? The IDC’s distress portfolio, that is the money they invested that is now in trouble, is R30 billion. That is bigger than the R26.6 billion they approved this year. They are underwater. They are losing money faster than they are deploying it. And of that R30 billion in distress? R9 billion is in black-empowered entities. So roughly a third of the “transformation” money they are bragging about in paid newspaper articles is currently circling the drain. But wait, there is more. Since 2017, the IDC has given R8.5 billion to 128 black industrialists. Sounds impressive until you learn that a single manganese company got R6.1 billion. One company. That is 72% of the total. Three companies consumed virtually the entire allocation. The average per industrialist? R66.4 million. Here is my favourite part: the IDC says 88% of its funding goes to black-owned businesses. Beautiful number. Very clean. Very round. Very paid-media-friendly. But when NAFCOC went to Parliament and said the IDC is undermining black industrialists through “aggressive recovery actions, premature legal enforcement, and liquidation processes,” the Portfolio Committee Chair responded: “It appears that the IDC has not effectively embedded issues of transformation in its business processes.” That is Parliament. Not me. Parliament. So here is what R26.6 billion in “transformation funding” actually looks like: 1. R1.77 million per job (if you believe the job numbers). 2. R30 billion in distress (which they do not mention in the paid article). 3. R9 billion in black business distress (which they definitely do not mention). 72% of black industrialist funding going to three companies (which they will never mention). But sure. Run the paid article. The maths will still be here in the morning.

"We have chosen discipline not because we do not have opinions. For those who are positioning themselves and claiming to be the engine room of the ANC, the time will come when the ANC will open processes. When that time comes, we will engage fully and decisively. For now, those who are running ahead must look back; they will realise that they are just walking alone." timeslive.co.za/politics/2026-…

@africatodayMG When are we annexing that land

Lesotho 🇱🇸 wants to renegotiate its water deal with South Africa 🇿🇦 . Through the Lesotho Highlands Water Project, water flows from Lesotho to Gauteng, including Johannesburg. Right now, Lesotho earns about $200 million a year, around 10% of its economy. But the deal was signed in 1986, and Lesotho says it’s outdated. They now want higher royalties and better compensation. Talks are expected to begin in April 2026.

DEVELOPING | ANC Eastern Cape provincial secretary Lulama Ngcukayitobi says the circulating letter claiming that he has resigned is fake, adding that he is happy to be in the ANC.

Hezbollah just sent these IDF soldiers to Hell. Lebanon is a death trap for all Israelis.

@AidanSimardone American backed ISIS

Why is it always “Iran backed Houthis” and not “American backed Israel”?

JUST IN🇱🇧❌🇮🇱🔥 Hezbollah ambushed multiple Israeli tanks and k!lled 15+ soldiers in a Lebanese farm lands.

@simsilwana Registration took place and the officials are on record saying they are forging ahead with the conference

But the conference did not sit. It was not officially open so which interdict was not abided by?

@SABCNews Doc we are ready to be led by you 😭😭

WATCH | ANC’s Dr Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, commenting on the Limpopo African National Congress conference, says it is the best approximation of a model ANC conference, crediting the previous PEC for its organisation and few disputes.
