The story of Gauteng is a sad & sorry tale, I’m afraid.
What’s going on?

We’re witnessing the collapse & degradation of services & infrastructure on the daily!

No/erratic water, hectic potholes (I just hit a huge one 😭), broken traffic & street lights, filthy streets!
Have you seen Louis Botha Ave lately? Shocking!
Has #Pikitup simply given up in some areas/ don’t we care about bylaws?🤷🏻‍♀️
Not to mention rampant crime.

We’re facing a massive crisis in this province. Anyone listening?

One year ago today, Johannesburg teacher Kirsten Kluyts was killed during an organised running event in one of the country's most secure suburbs. A short 🧵on our @News24 visual investigation.

How much harm do false accusations do to the fight against real discrimination? How readily do we jump on the bandwagon? The Thabo Mbeki Foundation says there was no evidence of racism at Pretoria Girls, and GDE official s went out of their way to smear the school. #702Breakfast

[🔴LIVE NOW] Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi has been accused of hiding forensic reports, showing corruption and maladministration in the Social Development Department. The DA in the province has been calling for the ethics committee, to probe allegations of corruption against the Premier. The party is briefing the media.

"Exposed: How ANC-EFF cadre deployment crashes JHB's water supply."
We warned you about Lesufi and the EFF @MbalulaFikile
This is not what people voted for. Lesufi has Gauteng in his pocket because you keep protecting him. The EFF will destroy Tshwane! 🇿🇦

How are 18 people shot and killed in your province and not even a single provincial government official visits the crime scene? Days later? Aowa!

[Gareth Cliff @GarethCliff]

If you live in Pretoria, don’t you think you should stop paying rates and taxes to the CoT? Their internal politics, instability and constant undermining of the mayor mean you won’t get service delivery anyway. I suggest we stop paying. Right now.

[The Finance Ghost @FinanceGhost]

Over 200,000 people pay to read this absolute garbage.

@Naspers you must be so proud of the "positive" impact that your portfolio company has on society.

You don't FUCKING hate the media enough. In the very same video you can see him literally handing food to people of all races, cultures and creeds.

It's sickening how desperate MSM has become for clickbait to meet their overheads. This journalist will be protected by his editor knowing he messed up.

They don't give a damn about ruining lives, as long as they can turn a profit they are willing to do ANYTHING.

[Acclaimed Journalist @Jonathan_Witt]

The DA spent the week embracing NHI, firing competent people, and walking away from their BELA bill objections.

The worst part is that they did all of this to appease people who hate them and will never vote for them, while almost certainly alienating people who once did.

[Acclaimed Journalist @Jonathan_Witt]

This remains true and will always remain true.

You can circumvent every other kind of government failure yourself except for healthcare.

If government destroys quality healthcare, also known as private healthcare, as is their stated intention, your family will be killed.

Residents in part of Randburg have now taken it upon themselves to get private water tankers to fill up their tankers. Parts of Randburg have been without water since Sunday. #JHBWater can’t give an exact time as to when water will be fully restored. #eNCA

@Lush_Beauty1 Stop kicking the shit out of yourself .
