Asanda Daniso must take legal action against these reckless character assassins! Dragging an innocent woman's name into an international drug smuggling case just to score cheap political points against the EFF is a new low. We watched haters tag their favourite xenophobic ring leaders, and even MK Party MPs like @MzwaneleManyi jumped on the propaganda machine. Now that the actual facts layout completely exposes their lies, it's time for accountability. Sue them to a standstill!

SAPS Celebrates Hillbrow Constable's PhD Achievement

A 30-year-old Nkandla-born police officer, Constable (Dr) Lindokuhle Ngcobo, stationed at SAPS Hillbrow in Johannesburg, is drawing attention for his rare combination of academic excellence and frontline policing.

Serving in the Crime Prevention Unit, Dr Ngcobo is involved in monitoring crime hotspots, responding to robbery incidents, tracking suspects, and supporting intelligence-driven operations within the South African Police Service (SAPS).

His academic record is extensive, holding a PhD in Policy and Development Studies, a Master of Social Science in Public Policy, Honours in Public Policy, and a Bachelor of Social Science from the University of KwaZulu-Natal.

He completed his doctorate in 2025, focusing on the lived experiences of women with disabilities and policy responses during COVID-19 lockdown levels 5 to 3 in the City of Johannesburg.

Before joining the police service, he worked as a policy researcher at the Department of Community Safety, where he developed an interest in public safety and governance.

He later enrolled in the Basic Policing Development Learning Programme at the 3 SAI Kimberley Academy as part of Project 10 000’s 2022 intake, before formally joining SAPS.

Reflecting on his career shift, Ngcobo said policing offered him a direct way to engage with real-world social challenges such as inequality, gender-based violence, and youth crime, while contributing to safer communities.

He believes young officers with academic training can help modernise policing through research-driven approaches, digital innovation, and improved community engagement.
Dr Ngcobo has encouraged young people during Youth Month to consider careers in SAPS, saying it offers discipline, growth, and an opportunity to serve society meaningfully.

@casspernyovest Personally I don't wanna hear shit from celebrities except their lifestyle. It's time deployees & those employed by the state deal with crime and socio economic issues. What is celebrity sloganeering going 2 assist with if the state is sitting on its ass. Wa go nyela dai man

When Construction SETA appeared in Parliament, we informed the Administrator that there are students of plumbing and electricity who have not been paid their stipends for 3 months.

This morning, we physically brought him to the IETI centre where he committed that the payments will be resolved next week Thursday, with a full back pay for all the missed months.

We also thank Deputy Minister Dr. Mimmy Gondwe for making herself available. Ndaa!✊🏿

With a functional skills development program our nation can close the 4 million gap of young people who are Not in Education Employment and Training (NEET).

Parliament must not just be a talk show, it must produce results! #ThankYouEFF

@ntsikimazwai Your hate for Julius is deep

Either we are dealing with people who lack critical thinking or who generally operate on room temperature IQ.

At no point did Juju compare that thug to Steve Biko. There’s simply no equivalence between the two.

Equating the treatment they received doesn’t mean equating the individuals themselves.

You are almost always ready to be outraged over anything and everything by him.

Apply yourselves and learn to think!

EFF Calls for Scrapping of Registration Fees in Professional Bodies for Unemployed Graduates!

Young professionals, including teachers, doctors, engineers, lawyers, accountants, and others are required to pay membership fees to professional bodies such as SACE, HPCSA, LPC, ECSA, and SAICA, even when they are unemployed.

Register to vote for the EFF in the government elections:

A pathetic and nauseating organization which has correctly been deemed as NewzToilet.

There is no such allegation, crooks interacted with each other using the name of the EFF and its President, and are now confessing that the EFF has nothing to do with this nonsense.

NewzToilet must answer a simple question, who made an allegation that EFF is involved in tenders in Tshwane? Name and Surname of the person who made that allegation?

[ChrisExcel @ChrisExcel102]

I’ve seen the tribalism tweets and the apology.

I’ve thought the night and came to the conclusion.

The money that we’ve raised. Let’s select a school in Limpopo Rural area that has most disadvantaged children

Buy them school shoes & socks winter is approaching… 🤧

Immediately no. Besides its historical significance, Robben Island is sacred ground, with unidentified graves across the island from prisoners and the leper colony. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and has sensitive biodiversity, with endangered and declining animal and plant species. Plenty of tourist accommodation in CT. Plenty tourist activities. Disneyfying Robben Island? We have more class and honour than that, surely.
