The way South African hate crime, some guy stood live on TV last year on 06 July and mention every criminals there including politicians so who do you think you are as Nigerians to be left alone and do as you please.
Dear @Discovery_SA
I’ve trusted you with my health for over 16 years, investing not just my trust but my money—no loans, no credit, just a genuine commitment to your services. Today, I am at the hospital, admitted with severe abdominal pain that’s almost unbearable.
Yet, I’ve been told that the hospital is still waiting for your approval before I can receive medication or any relief. I am left to endure the pain while waiting for approval.
Despite having comprehensive cover and choosing Discovery for my health and other financial needs, this experience is profoundly disappointing. Healthcare should never be delayed when it’s most needed.

I’m shocked and angry by what I’m experiencing with Capitec.
A family member recently passed away. Four years ago, I took out a funeral policy to help cover basic fuel costs and family contributions when the time came.
Today, I’ve been told that my aunt was “over-insured” and that only the first three people who insured her will receive payouts. My claim will not be paid.
What I don’t understand is this: if the policy wasn’t valid because she was already over-insured, why was my application accepted and my premiums collected for the past four years? Why wasn’t the policy declined from the start?
I’m still sitting at the bank trying to get answers.
Has anyone else experienced something similar? What are my options from here?
MP ADAMS' COMMISSION TESTIMONY ON ICT SUPPORT PROVIDED BY PARLIAMENT
Parliament, Tuesday, 11 August 2026 - Parliament has noted statements made by National Coloured Congress Member of Parliament Mr Fadiel Adams during his appearance before the Madlanga Commission this morning, in which he attributed delays in accessing correspondence from the Commission to persistent problems with his Parliament-issued laptop.
Mr Adams indicated, among other things, that his laptop had been problematic for approximately 18 months, was frequently either frozen or in for repairs, and that this had affected his ability to access information.
Ordinarily, Parliament would not comment on explanations offered by a Member in proceedings before a commission of inquiry. However, insofar as these claims create the impression that Parliament failed over an extended period to provide a Member with functional tools of trade necessary for the performance of his constitutional responsibilities, the institutional record requires clarification.
Following Mr Adams' remarks, Parliament reviewed the ICT Service Desk records relating to technical support logged for him during the relevant period.
The records do not reflect any reported incident of persistent laptop malfunction, hardware failure, repeated freezing of the device, or the laptop being repeatedly submitted to ICT for repairs.
The ICT incidents recorded during this period relate primarily to routine user-access and account-support matters. These include a Windows password reset in January 2025, an ERP/Marang password reset in June 2025, assistance with logging into a device in July 2025, a Wi-Fi update in January 2026, and an ERP/Marang eDisclosure-related request in June 2026. These matters were recorded through Parliament's ICT Service Desk and were closed.
Password resets, authentication or login difficulties and connectivity configuration are routine ICT support matters and are materially different from a device being technically dysfunctional or unavailable for an extended period.
Parliament therefore has no ICT Service Desk record supporting the assertion that Mr Adams' parliamentary laptop was persistently dysfunctional for approximately 18 months in the manner described before the Commission.
It is also important to clarify that Parliament's provision of tools of trade to Members is not limited to a single laptop. Members are provided with multiple ICT devices, including a laptop, tablet and smart phone, precisely to support continuity of access and enable Members to perform their parliamentary responsibilities.
Where a Member experiences a technical problem with an allocated device, established ICT support channels are available for the incident to be logged, diagnosed and resolved. Alternative Parliament-issued devices also provide continuity of access while a particular device is being attended to.
Parliament's clarification is confined to its own ICT and administrative records and should not be construed as commenting on the substance of Mr Adams' evidence before the Commission, which remains a matter for the Commission.
ISSUED BY THE PARLIAMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA
Can anyone explain why Ge eral Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi is the only provincial police commissioner that is making an effort to fight against Taxi Association tyranny on our roads in the whole of South Africa?
I have a theory about the "documents under the door" stories, I could be right or wrong, but I trust the Commission to get to the bottom of things.
Two weeks or so ago I wrote a post about General Mkhwanazi complaining about the DA's Diane Kohler Barnard having leaked information to the media about the purchase of a luxury hotel by Crime Intelligence. Drushantha had not testified yet.
In the article, which I'm sharing today, it was mentioned that the DA and Action SA's Dereleen James were demanding investigations into the matter, James requesting IPID to investigate.
I'm prepared to give Dereleen the benefit of the doubt, given the last week's revelations during Drushantha's testimony...that she chose to go to IPID instead of meeting with Perumal and them.
My issue here is that we have now come to know, based on evidence presented so far, that there was an organized, calculated agenda against Generals Masemola, Khumalo, Mkhwanazi and the PKTT, by IDAC. The real masterminds behind this mission, will still eventually be unmasked, but so far, General Khan seems to be the key player.
My theory is that, there was a racially driven agenda, as Fadiel himself has said in one of his rants "a few Indians and Coloureds who are trying to clean SAPS"..(not quoting him verbatim), of the Indian Cabal, led by General Khan, who used IDAC, IDAC worked with the DA's Kohler Barnard and Ian Cameron, then Fadiel was brought in, then they identified Dereleen and thought she could fit into the agenda as a Coloured lady representing Coloured Communities in ActionSA. Ashley Sauls' posture in the Adhoc Committee, was also aligned with them somehow.
I don't know at what point she woke up to the realization that she could potentially be used as a pawn. But I saw her saying she felt uneasy after being called by Dylan Perumal. We don't know what Perumal may have said in that call. She then chose to go to IPID instead.
In all of this, then Minister Mchunu's part has to be explained, and where the interests of the Big 5 lay in all of this.
The question now is, all these members, sit in the Portfolio Committee on Police and Intelligence where sensetive information about the country's security is handled. Who leaked information to News24 Journalists?? Everyone is saying they depended on information that was in the media. Who was the source for the media? We have seen how News24 Journalists tried to defend Andrea Johnson, until they couldn't anymore when evidence hit them in the face!
Is it possible for Journalists to be called to the Commission? Or the law protects them not to reveal their sources? Can those in the know please inform us. Can they be called to testify under oath?
Who put the envelope under Fadiel's door? Will the investigations on CCTV footage eventually reveal?
There are so many questions we are asking ourselves. We await, with keen interest, the appearance of Fadiel tomorrow. We hope he'll behave himself.
