Data from Stats SA and the State of South Africaโs Fathers 2024 report shows only about 35-36% of children live with their biological fathers (64.5% do not). South Africa is the only country among 43 analyzed by the Institute for Family Studies where fewer than half of children live with both parents. It ranks among the highest globally for father absence by co-residence.

The race for points in the Nigeria Premier Football League takes centre stage in Ibadan on Friday as Bendel Insurance travel to face Shooting Stars Sports Club in what promises to be an intriguing Matchday 13 encounter.
With the season gradually gathering momentum, both sides have plenty to play for. While Bendel Insurance is looking to consolidate their position among the league's leading contenders, Shooting Stars will be eager to use home advantage to get their campaign back on track.
Bendel Insurance head into this fixture with renewed confidence following their dramatic 2โ1 victory over Niger Tornadoes at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium.
The Benin Arsenal left it late to secure all three points, with a decisive 90+5-minute winner providing another reminder of their determination and ability to fight until the final whistle.
That victory keeps Bendel Insurance firmly in the title conversation. With 21 points from 12 matches, they occupy second position on the NPFL table, just three points behind leaders Enugu Rangers.
However, their away form remains an area requiring attention. Although Bendel Insurance has demonstrated impressive attacking quality, translating their home dominance into consistent results on the road will be crucial if they are to sustain a serious challenge for the title.
For Shooting Stars, this is an opportunity to bounce back after a 1โ0 defeat away to Barau FC.
The Oluyole Warriors have been considerably stronger at home, where they have recorded four victories and two draws in six league matches. They have scored 11 goals and conceded just three in those encounters.
Their 4โ1 demolition of Abia Warriors in their previous home fixture underlined their attacking potential and ability to trouble opponents in front of their supporters.
Currently occupying 13th position with 15 points, Shooting Stars will be conscious of the need to turn their impressive home performances into another three points.
Shooting Stars won the last encounter 1โ0 in Ibadan in January 2026, with a goal scored in the 56th minute.
That victory ended Bendel Insurance's unbeaten run at the time. The Benin-based side will therefore have an opportunity to settle old scores and demonstrate how much they have grown since that meeting.
Bendel Insurance has scored 20 league goals, making them the highest-scoring team among the current top five. Their attacking threat, combined with their ability to score late, makes them a dangerous opponent.
However, Shooting Stars have conceded just three goals in six home matches. Their defensive organisation will be severely tested by Bendel's attacking movement and ability to create chances.
For Bendel Insurance, this is more than just another away fixture. It is an opportunity to make a statement in the title race.
Three points in Ibadan would take them to 24 points, level with league leaders Enugu Rangers, although Enugu Rangers would retain their game in hand.
For Shooting Stars, victory would provide a significant boost to their league campaign, strengthen their position in the table, and reaffirm their reputation as a formidable home side.
Both teams have something important to fight for, and the stakes are considerably high.
