I think SA must flex its muscle in the continent, the Ghanaian Stock exchange is worth R300bn and the Nigerian is R1.7trillion. The GEPF alone can buy all the companies listed in those exchanges and still be left with R1trillion. This is big brother posture we must take! 😊😊😊😂
The Eagle has landed!!!🦅

Today, we’re announcing @ZARUniversal (ZARU), an institutional-grade, Rand-backed stablecoin developed in partnership with @LunoGlobal, @EasyEquities, @sanlam, and Lesaka, to modernise South Africa’s payment and settlement infrastructure.
Every ZARU token is fully backed by Rand reserves held at @StandardBankZA, in the form of cash, bank deposits, and government bond equivalents, managed by Sanlam with monthly independent attestations by @MooreSAfrica.
Built for both retail and institutional use, ZARU enables instant, low-cost, always-on payments and cross-border settlement, helping connect the Rand to the global digital economy while keeping its reserves within South Africa’s regulated financial system.

Congratulations to the 200 academically deserving young people whom we have this afternoon awarded with Eskom bursaries to further their future within the energy industry in the spirit of energy being the future and the future being energy. 👏🏾
In terms of purchasing power parity (PPP), SA spends around 4 times less on education per learner than the average in OECD countries, and slightly less per learner than in Brazil and Russia.
Comparing education spend with GDP or total govt spend, is unhelpful because SAs GDP & govt spend (the denominator) is so far below potential (what it would be at full employment).
Some SA’s energy experts are hellbent on dictating Eskom’s end state. Eskom has entered this battle of ideas armed with global insights. Eskom’s solutions are pragmatic & serve public interest. An assertive Eskom is good for SA & its people. #Eskom#KeepGoing#ProudlySA

[WEARING OF BUFFS WITH UNIFORM: MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN POLICE SERVICE]
Wearing of buffs by police officials is not allowed. This practice is contrary to the code of conduct for the South African Police Service, as it hides police official's identity.
ONLY specialised units deployed for specified operational purposes may wear buffs, that is Special Task Force (STF), National Intervention Unit (NIU) and Tactical Response Team (TRT) during official and approved operations.
Under no circumstance may the South African Police Service emblem be imprinted on the buff.
Every day articles are written on Eskom’s imminent demise. Many of these articles are sponsored. The reality is that Eskom is turning itself around. Its balance sheet is getting stronger. Its operations are more reliable. Its people are stepping up on accountability & ethics.
