Not at all something to be proud of! – SA has a third-rated army. Soldiers are poorly trained – Strength is equivalent to what it was in 1930

Posted on 13/01/2020 Leave a comment

South Africa already seems to have a third-rated army, and its soldiers are not only poorly trained in warfare, but they also have a number of crooks in their ranks.

According to investigators, the recent burglary and theft of a number of army guns could not have happened without the cooperation of army members.

This is not the first time firearms have been “lost” by the military, and opinion-makers believe that much greater clutter is happening behind the scenes that remain to be discovered.

Concerns have been expressed that the weapons could be used in farm attacks and other robberies and that the police will not find the weapons and the culprits on time.

Four years ago, an independent body found that SA’s military had weakened to a level equivalent to what it was in 1930.

Bankrupt Eskom holds ANC regime hostage with ongoing #RollingBlackOuts

Posted on 13/01/2020 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.

Hundreds of illegal immigrants flock to SA, broken border fences at the Limpopo River make it so much easier to cross the border.

Posted on 13/01/2020 Leave a comment

Observers determined that 16 illegal immigrants came through near Musina and a further 54 were identified on the same day as “new arrivals” from the northern neighbour lands.

Many are found and arrested without documents, but many more reach the border unhindered and later start working on farms and businesses at much less than the minimum wage law provides.

A Zimbabwe news site reports that during December 3,968 illegal immigrants violated immigration laws at the Beitbridge .

Experts point out that this does not include those who illegally cross the dry Limpopo River to South Africa.

From the beginning of December to New Year’s Day, more than 200 children have been identified who crossed the border into South Africa on their own.

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 10/01/2020 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 10/01/2020 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 09/01/2020 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

Legal action demanded against KZN businessman after comparing people at a Richards Bay beachfront with baboons

Posted on 09/01/2020 Leave a comment

A businessman is in trouble after apparently comparing black people to baboons at a Richards Bay beachfront in a Facebook post.

Lorenzo Greyling, a KwaZulu-Natal businessman, allegedly made the statements on the Facebook group Selling Things in Richards Bay, after someone complained about the litter that was strewn on the beach after the 2019 uMhlathuze beach party.

“What do you expect from these barbarians? They don’t have manners, just like animals. Do you think a baboon or monkey picks up what he eats? No, they eat everything and just leave it on the floor, ”the post states. The placement was made on December 17 and has since been removed.

Slondile Mkhize, the speaker of uMhlathuze, now wants to take legal action against Greyling. He called on the Human Rights Commission to actually take action against Greyling and teach him “and others” to think twice before posting anything objectionable on social media.

“We are building a society that is slowl
