Candidate nominations for #LGE2026 are up 43% since 2021, but key gaps remain:
🗳️ Only 38% of nominees are women
🗳️ 58% are aged 36–55: youth participation lags behind

🔒Qaanitah Hunter | This election is going to get messy. Johannesburg will have the longest ballot in the country, with 80 political parties contesting. (Comment: An electoral system that produces a ballot with 80 parties on is not fit for purpose.) news24.com/opinions/columnis…
He is well branded - car manufacturer and political party!

I agree with you, but politicians and jealousy will surprise you.

Mexico is bringing teenage sensation Gilberto Mora (17) in the No.10 role of the 1st #FIFA2026 World Cup game in Mexico.
HOW WOULD BAFANA RESPOND: Old master Zwane (36) or young gun Mofokeng (21)?

I know you are honestly correct but I just cant prove it. I mean the SAPS should be better prepared for these unknown knowns.
So are employers supposed to STOP paying premiums for their employees just because the Main Collective Agreement is in discussions.
The Pension and Provident Fund agreements under the MEIBC expired on 30 April 2026.
At this stage, employers within the Council’s scope are not permitted or obligated to deduct or pay over contributions for these funds.
NEASA members can contact their regional office for assistance or queries.

Yesterday I left my phone in the office as I rushed into the parliamentary bus to our residential village, and this was around 21h:30.
Upon realising that I had no phone to even uber back, standing outside our res hoping that I may spot an uber dropping someone, a gentleman parked and jumped off to go a clock out from work.
I asked him if he was an uber and picking up someone and he said no but a member of the VIP protection unit just there to clock out since our res is the closest SAPS point for him.
I told him what had happened and I was looking for someone who can request an uber for me since I had left my phone in my parliamentary office, instead of offering his phone to request, he offered to take me to parliament and back.
Thank you Sgt Mtirara, there are few like you these days. People have become lovers of money and themselves as the bible says in Revelations about the last days.
It is encouraging to see that such people still exist especially when we are confronted with the horror movie we are seeing in Madlanga Commission and the Ad-Hoc Committee about rotten SAPS members.
May you be rewarded beyond measure. Good people deserve to be openly appreciated in these days. I wish I had your pic to post it with this note of appreciation. @EFFSouthAfrica
The real money is on who owns the broadcasting rights.

Out of curiosity.
What’s the most you would pay to watch Bafana Bafana vs Argentina/Brazil?
Advantage to the President but don't rule out Sipho Chaine, Oswin Appolis, Skhwishi Ndlovu, Nuno Santos, Sales, and Jayden Adams
The battle for #Betway Premier League Player of the Season is hotting up between @SekhukhuneFc United Defender Bright Ndlovu (4 Man of the Match Awards) and @orlandopirates Relebohile Mofokeng, who has 5 Man of the Match Awards, the most by any player this season. Who'll take it?
Makhaula has played well. But he's not young anymore. Let him rest at the right times
Replying to @orlandopirates
inclusion of De Jong gives us more bite going forward. Moremi and Mokoena are good enough on the wings and Oswin can come as an impact player. Masindi deserves the inclusion, good against low block . We need to manage Makhaula, he’s played lots of 90s in succession. Good line-up
Such entitlement, he expected the ANC to come to him...which ANC? Hes branch members? He's provincial structure? The National executives? Or even the Top 6? To top it all he wasn't even an ANC Ambassador

After being expelled by Donald Trump in America, everyone from the ANC suddenly distanced themselves from me.
Not a single ANC leader came to me to ask how I was feeling or what had actually gone wrong.
Instead, without even speaking to me first, Fikile Mbalula appeared from nowhere and tried to hand me a task to serve as the Convenor of the ANC in the Western Cape.
I told him to leave me alone. I had to protect myself and my family.
Also, I then had to write a long exit report about my ambassadorship in the USA. I gave it to President Ramaphosa.
It was accompanied by a resignation letter, and I told him to stop paying me. I cannot receive a salary for sitting at home.
I am now involved in projects all over the world that help people understand the hothead by the name of Donald Trump.

Is it not time we have a City- based Commission of Enquiry to expose the beneficiaries but more importantly their enablers and solutions maybe not a big Commission but a case-study using one or two hijacked buildings🔐

Collecting rent each month, but the building is a hive of illegal connections. We are strengthening our fight against illegal connections. This is one several buildings we disconnected today in Sunnyside. @CityTshwane
