No, Dinson didn't cause ArcelorMittal's closures. That's outright fiction. 🤣
ArcelorMittal South Africa itself has repeatedly stated the wind-down of its long steel operations (Newcastle, Vereeniging) is due to unsustainable high energy and logistics costs, Transnet rail failures, weak domestic demand, competition from local scrap mini-mills, and massive cheap imports primarily from China, issues building for years, long before Dinson even started production in mid-2024. lol
World Steel Association data confirms: Africa produces ~1.9-2.0 million tonnes of crude steel monthly throughout 2025, led by Egypt (~9-10+ million tonnes annually) and South Africa (~4-5 million tonnes, e.g., 4.063 million tonnes Jan-Oct 2025 alone, even amid declines).
Dinson's phase 1 capacity is only 600,000 tonnes annually, running at 60-75% utilization in 2025, nowhere near enough to "force" closures of a multi-million-tonne operation plagued by structural problems since before Dinson existed.
Zimbabwe's progress is welcome, but fabricating causation like this is just desperate propaganda. Stick to facts: no evidence links Dinson's ramp-up to AMSA's multi-year crisis.
Game over.
Keep your displeasures to yourself. The deputy minister saw that you don't have the guts to denounce Israel at the Olympics, and now everyone knows it.
I shall respond fully in regards to my displeasure about the statement released by Deputy Minister of Sport, Arts & Culture Ms Peace Mabe only after the Olympics. I don’t want politics to take centre stage now, this is the time for @OfficialTeamRSA, let’s rally behind them 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
@omaakatugba Who told you they cannot afford it?
If a Nigerian League player is receiving 500k per month, he can save enough to go for a vacation at the end of the season if he is prudent enough.
Some of them earn more than that. It is very POssible!
@sir__camble@cnehshuga No, there were not any cloud seeding before or after the storm. Whether services in the region have been warning UAE about the storm.
