The IEC must zero-rate the voter registration website/portal: registertovote.elections.org… It must be free to register to vote. ✊🏽 No data barriers. No excuses. Every eligible South African must be able to participate in our democracy. @eNCA @SABCNews @Newzroom405 @CapeTimesSA

🔴 BREAKING : 🇮🇱 Israel's people COOKING their PM Netanyahu 🔥🔥 58 thousands of protesters on street : "We demand immediate resignation of Netanyahu and a new investigation into Oct 7 attacks. That man doesn't deserve to be the PM." 🔥 Netanyahu's popularity in Israel has fallen to an all time low.🔥

SANDF deployment is a short-term response to a long-term failure. The governments of @alanwinde and @geordinhl must be held accountable for not addressing poverty, unemployment & inequality. Gangsterism thrives where opportunity is absent. Act now! #GangsterismMustFall @eNCA @GarethEdwardsSA @TheCapeArgus @DailyVoiceSA @Die_Burger @News24 @CapeTalk @lesterkk @ewnupdates @Newzroom405 @IOL @Sonkoerant @CapeTimesSA @SABCNews

The DA talks about broken pipes and dry taps as signs of failed leadership. But this weekend at the Hout Bay Sports Complex, basketball practices and soccer matches were taking place without any running water or access to toilets. Young people and community members using the facility were left without basic services. That is the reality behind the DA’s slogans.
😰 Broken pipes. Wasted water. Dry taps. That's failed maintenance and failed leadership! Where the DA governs, we fix infrastructure and keep taps running. That’s the DA difference. ✅ #VoteDA 💙

She is just politicking in the Western Cape where DA is in power, people do not have water, again people are not working and crime is very high. DA failed majority of our people in Western Cape nothing this old lady will do to the people of Johannesburg….
DA JHB Mayoral candidate #HelenZille says she will get water running in people taps, fix the roads, create jobs, deal with crime and fire corrupt officials. #eNCA

The President of South Africa is not in Chicago to “enjoy American freedom.” He is here to honour a man who stood with South Africa’s anti-apartheid struggle at a time when the United States was still supporting the apartheid regime and those who enforced it. He is here to honour a global icon revered by the very Black South Africans the apartheid state sought to crush and erase. He is here to honour a leader who came to South Africa, who walked the dusty streets of our townships alongside our parents and grandparents, and who gave moral courage to a struggle the world once tried to ignore. Ramaphosa is here to offer comfort and respect to @rep_jackson and the Jackson family who shared this extraordinary man with South Africa over many decades! You do not get to impose your politics on our history. Not today! President Ramaphosa will leave Chicago tomorrow and travel to Brazil on official business. You, meanwhile, can enjoy YOUR freedom to drop bombs across the world.
No friend of the Ayatollah is a friend of ours. South Africa’s president is cozying up to the Iranian regime while grandstanding and enjoying American freedom in Chicago.

People of Johannesburg please don't be fooled. She will bring you blikkiesdorp 2.0 and violate your human right like she did us in Hangberg.
[LIVE] I am revealing my five pledges to get Johannesburg working! A bold plan to fix the city, create jobs and restore reliable services. 📺 Watch it live on the DA’s Facebook or Youtube pages: youtube.com/live/i2iJokS821k #BelieveInJoburg #Zille4Mayor

If it was @PanyazaLesufi found guilty of breaching the Members’ Code of Conduct, @eNCA, @SABCNews and @NewzroomAfrika would be running wall-to-wall coverage. But because it’s a DA Premier, the “Western Cape exceptionalism” narrative must remain protected.
