Bankrupt Eskom holds ANC regime hostage with ongoing #RollingBlackOuts

Posted on Leave a comment

It is not only the ANC’s president who lied to foreign countries and in parliament about SA’s condition but also sustained on another lie.

Eskom said he would ensure that no load shedding will be applied before January 13, and then the ANC’s Cyril Ramaphosa believed the lie and went on to sell the lying story to the whole of South Africa.

On January 5, #RollingBlackOuts shook the country with Phase 2 that lasted until 5am this morning.

This is because the poor workmanship at Medupi power station had to be blamed again for a conveyor belt breaking.

The fact that Koeberg had already supplied only 50% of its capacity throughout December was only announced on January 4.

Experts have told Die Vryburger it is becoming clearer that Eskom is holding the ANC government hostage because they want to pay performance bonuses of R1.5bn amid their bankruptcy.

Power consumers say that the only performance Eskom is rendering is to anger  its consumers.

Greedy Ramaphosa Wants More From His & ANC’s Personal BEE Cash Cow, Eskom – He Finally Admits Medupi & Kusile Are Unreliable (Have Been Bled Dry) Even As The Blame Game Rages On…

Posted on Leave a comment

Planning to fail: Having pocketed millions, if not billions, by plundering Eskom in all sorts of ways through a variety of tender companies and who knows what else, it seems Cyril and The ANC have finally realised the Medupi & Kusile projects have bled dry, and are now looking for new ways to employ (steal) taxpayers money, to continue bleeding them dry… yet another new huge expensive project with new tenders, contracts, bribes & kickbacks. It is the same all over South Africa, build a new school, extort tenders, contracts, bribes & kickbacks. Then burn it down and steal more from the taxpayer by building another school with more tenders, contracts, bribes and kickbacks. The African Way.

It is incredible that Ramaphosa now says that the much vaunted Medupi and Kusile Power Stations, with an ultimate costs as high as R451 BILLION are unreliable! This after the ANC’s investment arm, Chancellor House, made up to R150 Million profit from the proje

SA’s expected economic growth is adjusted to 0.9% for 2020 – ANC regime is responsible for SA being in such a mess

Posted on Leave a comment

The World Bank has just adjusted South Africa’s projected economic growth to 0.9% for 2020 amid the uncertainty surrounding Eskom and load shedding. The 1.3% growth that the World Bank initially predicted for 2019 has now also been adjusted to 0.4%.

In spite of these realities, the ANC clings to the ideology that got us into this troubled position. President Ramaphosa explains what their approach to state-owned companies, so-called strategic assets, will remain:

“As we do this, we are clear that the state will retain ownership of all those state-owned enterprises that are strategic. This is so that these entities are able to perform the crucial economic and developmental functions that the market would not own be able to perform. ”

The government certainly does not intend to relinquish comprehensive state control and trust the free market. In the end, they placed SAA with terrible objection in business rescue – largely thanks to the continued pressure that Sol

Convicted “racist”Vicki Momberg is suing the state for R8,5 million

Posted on Leave a comment

Speaking to News24 on Thursday, Momberg’s lawyer, Anesh Sukdeo said her client was suing the South African Police Service (SAPS), justice ministers, provincial and national police commissioners as well as the National Director of Public Prosecutions (NDPP), for R8.5 Million for the unlawful arrest and detention effected on her on November 6.

Sukdeo said the R8.5 million claim includes R2.5 million for her unlawful arrest and detention from November 6 to December 27 at a rate of R50 000 per day, R1 million for defamation, pain, suffering and anguish, R2.5 million for malicious legal proceedings and another R2.5 million for wrongful and malicious legal proceedings.

The lawyer said while the police claimed there was a warrant of arrest instructing Momberg’s arrest on November 6, that was not the case and instead they had an “apprehension order”.

“When we got to court and saw the magistrate that dealt with Vicki’s matter initially is the very same

What does the ANC know about fitness? – Gyms and fitness trainers will be government regulated – and can be shut down – under a new draft plan

Posted on Leave a comment

Gyms and fitness trainers will be answerable to a new body that will be set up by the minister of sport, under a new draft law – with the power to close down gyms and suspend the registration of fitness professionals if they break the rules.

The Fitness Industry Regulatory Authority is one proposal in the draft National Sport and Recreation Amendment Bill published for public comment in December. The law is intended to give the minister of sport more direct control of sporting codes and to create various new bodies, including one to regulate “combat sport” and a Sport Arbitration Tribunal.

But the change with the biggest impact would be the fitness regulator, which under the current draft has wide powers and responsibilities that seem to cover pretty much anything resembling a gym, and anyone who helps others get and stay fit in exchange for money.

If passed, the law would allow the minister of sport, currently Nathi Mthethwa, to establish the fitness regula

Matric class of 2019 will struggle to find jobs – SA Youth unemployment rate rose to 58.2 percent in the third quarter of 2019

Posted on Leave a comment

South Africa’s matric class of 2019 has achieved impressive results, but may struggle to find work as the country faces constrained employment in 2020.

John Botha, chief operation officer at Global Business Solutions, said that this is highlighted by the country’s current growth level. Using a labour elasticity formula he noted that for each 1% growth in the GDP there is a corresponding 0.7% growth in employment.

“With a forecast 1.5% growth in 2020 along with accelerating technological disruption, the best-case scenario is that there may be around 100,000 new jobs created,” he said.

“This is a major challenge given that more than 500,000 grade 12s left the secondary schooling system in 2019.”

South Africa’s unemployment rate climbed to 29.1% in the third quarter of 2019 – its highest rate in over 16 years, while the real unemployment rate is closer to 40%.

Botha’s comments align with data from the Manpower Group’s Employment Outlook

Bloemfontein Now Literally A Pig Sty As Black Farmers Let Their Pigs Eat From The Piles Of Uncollected Refuse Bags in The Suburbs!

Posted on Leave a comment

The Once Proud Boer City Nicknamed Rosestad Is No More. Tuesday was the 12th day in which garbage was not collected by the municipality of Bloemfontein, causing mountains of black refuse bags to lie uncollected in the streets in neighborhoods like Pelissier and Lourierpark. Small-scale black farmers close by have been letting their pigs invade the neighbourhoods, ripping  open the refuse bags looking for food, leaving a big mess.

Rossouw Botes, a DA councillor from Bloemfontein, says the pigs come from squatter camps in the vicinity where the small-scale black farmers don’t give the pigs enough food causing them to be hungry. A spokesperson of Bloemfontein municipality told Netwerk24 that a diesel shortage is the reason why refuse is not being removed. Rossouw says that the provincial government is supposed to give Bloemfontein R1,4 billion but this is not forthcoming and officials of Bloemfontein, which is under provincial administration, are too scared to say any

Eskom is now clearly lying, obfuscating and playing with words after it came to light that they are planning to pay out R1, 8 billion in bonuses by saying that it is 13th cheques, not bonuses.

Posted on Leave a comment

Take into consideration that it was Nersa – National Energy Regulator of South Africa – that called it bonuses in court papers, which is obviously statements made under oath.

Does Eskom now wants us to believe them over Nersa?
Eskom is now playing word and mind games with us by saying that it is 13th cheques, not bonuses . They also say that not all employees are entitled to these 13th cheques. That is where the lie alarm is going off and red flags are going up. What kind of employer does not give a uniform salary structure to its employees? Eskom also says. that employees can choose themselves if they want their total salary package to be divided into 12 or 13 cheques

So if we follow what Eskom has lied, we can then logically conclude that if an employee choose to have 13 pay packages per year and still gets an amount only intended for some employees, but not all, that amount only due for some is in fact a 14th cheque then.

If anyone still believes Eskom af

12 Army members arrested for the disappearance of nineteen R4 assault rifles are set free on a mere warning

Posted on Leave a comment

The military court released 12 army members with only a warning after they were arrested in connection with the disappearance of nineteen R4 assault rifles.

The army members were arrested between December 24 and 27, 2019 on charges of housebreaking, theft and negligent loss of firearms after the disappearance of the weapons from the storeroom on their base.

The suspects, including captains, lieutenants, sergeants, and staff sergeants, were denied bail a week ago because the investigating officer and the then presiding military judge feared they might interfere with the investigation and evidence. It was then postponed for further investigation until Friday.

Their release is subject to various conditions, including moving the four officers and eight deputy officers from the Lyttelton Tek base in Centurion to other units in the Pretoria area.

According to reports from Network 24, Brian Plaatjies, the attorney for 11 of the accused, as well as Adv. Pikkie Gree

38,9% Is The ‘Real’ Matric Pass Rate, According To The DA

Posted on Leave a comment

The DA has claimed that the matric pass rate is incorrect, just after the announcement of the 2019 results by Basic Education Minister, Angie Motshekga.

The Democratic Alliance (DA) has called the Minister of Basic Education, Angie Motshekga’s bluff saying that her announcement of 81.3% for the 2019 matric pass rate is incorrect and the ‘real’ pass rate is in fact 38.9%.

In the statement, the DA congratulated each learner who passed the NSC examination, however had this to say:

“Whilst Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga and the Department of Education are celebrating an all-time high matric pass rate of 81.3%, the Democratic Alliance can reveal that the real pass rate is in fact 38.9%.”

Why a pass rate of 38.9%?

DA Minister of Basic Education, Nomsa Marchesi explained that in 2017, a total of 1 052 080 learners were enrolled in grade 10, yet only 409 906 learners eventually passed matric last year.

“This means only 38.9% of grade
