Decolonised Zimbabwe Begging Neighbours for Electricity to Stop Daily 12 Hour Blackouts!

Posted on Leave a comment

Like in South Africa, where the simple maintenance and upkeep of a fully functioning infrastructure seems to be a challenge to African regimes, Zimbabwe who was once a powerhouse in Southern Africa, has been reduced to asking its neighbours to commission new power plants to supply Zimbabwe, as it seems it cannot even commission its own power plants anymore.

The current electricity cuts were allegedly because of rehabilitation work at the Kariba South hydropower plant, constraints at its coal-fired Hwange plant and limited power imports (from struggling SA?), according to the Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority.

A total of 1,276 megawatts was being produced by plants in the country on Thursday, according

SA’s Deputy Chief Justice Zondo Admits he Made a Mistake – Requests ANOTHER Extension for the Investigation into State Capture!

Posted on Leave a comment

Although Tito Mboweni promised that there was no more money to fund the State Capture Inquiry, the Zondo Commission has still requested a fifth postponement. Not that anyone is surprised that the state capture inquiry is seeking a further extension, this time until December (after the elections), but that the country’s Deputy Chief Justice can make such a large miscalculation, repeatedly, is a major concern, or is it just that they simply have not earned enough money and want to buy Christmas presents? Maybe time he retired?

The Zondo commission has already cost the taxpayer R1 Billion – including the payment of excessive fees to evidence leaders and investigators, and other administrative costs. Another extension of the deadline for submitting the report was requested by the State Creation Commission to submit its final report. Continue reading…

Some ANCYL Candidates Left off PR Party Lists – Upset They Might Miss Their Chance at Systemic Corruption and not Become Millionaires?

Posted on Leave a comment

#BaBBEE – There are problems in the ANC gravy train paradise after ANC Youth League members furiously protested over their exclusion from the list of PR councillors. Internal divisions are raging among the ruling ANC after two youth league regions, in the Free State and Limpopo, expressed their anger over the exclusion of the youth candidates names in the candidate list for the upcoming local elections. Given the systemic corruption in municipalities, they are probably angry they will not be able to become millionaires through systemic corruption.

The ruling party’s condemnation comes from within by statements issued by the ANC Youth League in the Thabo Mofutsanyane district in the Free State, and from a similar structure in the Vhembe district in Limpopo.

South Africans don’t fall for Ramaphosa’s Act – 82% say Corruption is Same or Worse Under Cyril!

Posted on Leave a comment

Two-thirds of South Africans believe that corruption has increased in the past year, and half (49%) believe that it has “increased a lot.” Furthermore, a survey shows that people not only think that corruption has gotten worse under Ramaphosa, but also recognize that a large part of the elected officials and civil servants, who should be fighting corruption, are involved in corrupt activities themselves.

Perceptions of systemic corruption in South Africa have dominated public debates for two decades since the ANC was given a working first world country. In its many forms, corruption undermines the efficiency of the state, impairs the quality of public services, and ultimately destroys public trust. In South Africa, former president Jacob Zuma and some of his allies were accused of state capture, using the state for personal gain, destroying state institutions and government departments.

EFF Leader, Malema, Convicted of Violating Parliament’s Code of Ethics on Two Charges!

Posted on Leave a comment

The Joint Committee on Ethics found that Malema had violated the code of ethics for members of parliament by not enforcing the law, when he called on foreign nationals to find ‘creative ways‘ to invade SA illegally, after SA borders were closed during the Covid lockdown in January.

Malema was found to have violated the code with his call in January to foreign nationals, to find a ‘creative way‘ to enter SA illegally, if they could not enter the country through the border posts.

China Testing Sinovac Vaccine on SA Children – Offers SinoVac Packaging Facility in SA as Sweetener!

Posted on Leave a comment

Although the Chinese CoronaVac vaccine has not been fully approved or used in South Africa, SA is included with other third world countries in the Phase III trials of Sinovac’s coronavirus (Covid-19) vaccine on children and adolescents. The launch of the South African leg was recently held in Pretoria, South Africa, where approximately 2,000 children and adolescents from six months to 17 years will be enrolled, to test the safety and efficacy of the CoronaVac vaccine, although results from trials so far only show 50% effectiveness. The trials will test 14,000 children worldwide in Chile, the Philippines, Malaysia, Kenya and South Africa.

At the same time, the possibility of a packaging plant, which is being promoted as a “manufacturing facility for SinoVac,” was announced, apparently to dampen any negative reactions. Apparently the Chinese do not trust Africans in the manufacture of their vaccine. Concerns have also been expressed about the eff

Posted on Leave a comment

The once tranquil Western Cape is becoming increasingly dangerous and on the evening of 10 September, there was a farm attack between Stanford and Hermanus.

Shockingly, the attackers then ordered the guests to stand in a line, as if they were going to be shot. The attackers took one of the men to the room, where they tried to strangle him with a rope, but luckily the rope broke and the man survived the incident.

The cowards then apparently

Did Tobacco Giant BAT Give Mugabe Up to $500,000 to Release Their Private Spies in 2012? – Leaked Documents

Posted on Leave a comment

According to documents seen by the BBC program ‘Panorama‘, British American Tobacco’s (BAT) private spies were caught spying on Savanna Tobacco’s factory, in Zimbabwe in 2012. After paying for talks with high-ranking Zanu PF members, about a donation of up to half a million dollars, the 3 spies were released. BAT is the manufacturer of Lucky Strike cigarettes and is one of the largest companies in the UK, where the multinational tobacco monopoly is headquartered in London.

The investigation touched on the world of corporate competition, illegal espionage and bribery in Africa, or more specifically the tobacco industry. The focus of the investigation was BAT, which had been accused of bribery in various African states, and the private security firm called Forensic Security Services (FSS), which the company relied on for its business in South Africa.

SA Courts No Longer Secure! How Long Before SA Balkanizes and is Declared a Humanitarian Disaster?

Posted on Leave a comment

It is already clear that SA’s law enforcers, the police, are not fit for purpose, but now the courts themselves are falling apart. Cybercriminals have infiltrated and paralysed the SA court’s network systems, raising fears that the banking details of people and businesses dealing with the courts have been compromised, and may be made public. There have also been widespread outages from many of the government’s websites, after underground internet cables were damaged on Friday. At the same time, the Potgietersrus Magistrate’s Court and detective branch have been without power for four days, after the Mogalakwena local municipality cut off the power due to non-payment.

The ransomware attack forced courts to use manual recording equipment so that cases could proceed as scheduled, and a handwritten process was also used to provide the families of deceased individuals with the necessary documentation, to conduct funerals. Meanwhile, all cases at the Potgiete

Posted on Leave a comment

A brutal farm attack was carried out on the night of 8 September 2021, at 20:00, in Kortfontein between Koster and Derby in the North West province. Chris Barnard and his wife Hesta were attacked in their home by three assailants and tortured for four hours.

Chris was severely assaulted and also beaten with a wheel wrench and a whip. His wife Hesta was burned with a hot iron and also severely assaulted. The perpetrators also cut off some of her hair with a knife.

The evil farm attackers looted the house during the four-hour ordeal while constantly cruelly torturing the couple. The attackers finally fled the scene around midnight with the couple’s pickup truck, electrical equipment and other household items.
