The Racism in the football world, we are all humans and our skin color doesn't make us any different. But black population keep suffering the racial profiling and discrimination all over the world not just in football. It's painful watching this video and seeing how men cried because they are being discriminated. SAY NO TO RACISM.
Many South Africans 🇿🇦 hate the abuse coming via income tax. It's becoming a serious problem. @sarstax
Can't someone start a petition to reduce taxes? It feels like our hard-earned money is funding corrupt officials in government while ordinary citizens continue to struggle. #TaxRevoltSA
The taxing system in South Africa 🇿🇦 is designed to keep the majority poor with absolutely nothing substantial they own @sarstax
Only politicians and cadres have the ability to own lavish apartments and cars through corruption!! #TaxRevoltSA
R2 Trillion revenue collection in a 1% GDP growth economy with and average 4.5% inflation rate perpetually eroding the purchasing power of stagnant wages, and a 60% youth unemployment rate is a cause for a revolution.
I have a question for SARS : Other than salaries and perks for parliamentarians, what do we, the tax paying citizens, get from government that is worthwhile. Paying SARS is like money being stolen.
The South African middle class gets punished for being productive. Earn a little more and SARS takes a bigger slice, yet you're still expected to fund your own medical aid, security, schooling and transport. Taxation without corresponding services is not fairness.
#TaxrevoltSA
South Africans 🇿🇦 we need to stand together AND reject the abuse by @sarstax
Nothing justifies almost 50% of our salaries being stolen by these government with very little to show off in our communities!!
#TaxRevoltSA
An average South African 🇿🇦earning between R20k to R50k a month pays almost half of their salary to the government. @sarstax
When we are done with illegal immigrationcrisis, there are some serious questions that this government MUST answer!!

Yesterday at Cartrack's head office in Rosebank, a woman named Gcina Dhladhla passed away after reportedly informing management last week that she was unwell. Instead of being supported, she was issued with a warning for being absent from work and was called into meetings regarding her attendance.
On Friday morning, Gcina went to work after being threatened with dismissal if she did not report for duty. At around 8:30am, she went to the bathroom. After being inside for an unusually long time, her team leader went to check on her. When there was no response, security was called to open the door.
Gcina was found unconscious on the bathroom floor. She had removed her clothing because she was feeling extremely hot. She remained on the floor for a prolonged period while assistance was being arranged. CPR was attempted by individuals who were not trained first aid responders, and it was only later realised that an ambulance had not yet been called.
Supervisors managed the situation, A manager went to Netcare in person to request an ambulance. By this stage, Gcina's body had become cold, her hands and feet had turned purple, and she had begun bleeding from the nose.
An ambulance only arrived after 11:00am, following intervention from her family, who instructed the company to call emergency services. When paramedics arrived, Gcina had already passed away. Employees from the Debtors Department were then instructed to vacate the building.
Gcina had previously complained about the way she was treated by team leaders. Her family, colleagues and the public deserve answers about the circumstances surrounding her death.
ATM Leader Zungula Vows to Push for Full Parliamentary Investigation After Home Affairs Reveals It Has No Records on Whether MPs or Members of the Executive Hold Dual Citizenship or Are Naturalised South African Citizens
Mr Vuyo Zungula (ATM) has vowed to call for an investigation after the Department of Home Affairs informed Parliament that it does not have records on whether Members of Parliament or members of the Executive hold dual citizenship or are naturalised South African citizens. The response was issued in a written parliamentary reply.
Home Affairs said it is not in a position to provide the requested figures, explaining that it does not maintain records reflecting the citizenship status of MPs or Cabinet members. The question, numbered 1489 (NW1677E), asked for totals of lawmakers with dual citizenship and those who are naturalised South Africans.
The department’s admission effectively means there is no centralised database tracking whether individuals serving in Parliament or the Executive hold foreign citizenship or were naturalised. The matter was raised in the National Assembly as part of routine written questions directed to the Minister of Home Affairs.
Following the response, Zungula said he will pursue a formal call for an investigation into the matter, arguing that the issue relates to national security and public accountability. He maintained that South Africans have a right to know whether their leaders hold citizenship ties outside the country.
Yes and every citizen gets housing, health care, food and education. Whether youre a child, with disability, a senior, marginalized- your society has come together to ensure everyone is taken car of, this is a functional society.
It’s like a school with many classrooms. Just because you’re in the same school doesn’t mean you belong to every classroom. You only belong where you’re registered.
A security guard at Hayfields Primary School in Pietermaritzburg is being praised after he reportedly stayed behind long after his shift ended to protect two six-year-old learners allegedly left stranded outside school for more than five hours.
The children had finished school at 12:30 but were still at the school gate at 18:00.
The guard reportedly missed his own transport home while staying with the hungry and frightened children until help arrived. They were later taken to Alexandra SAPS, fed by Roman’s Pizza Hayfields, and eventually collected by a shocked family member.
The school says it is now reviewing procedures to prevent a similar incident from happening again.
“Jacob Zuma and Thabo Mbeki were like twin brothers in exile, they dressed in the same Cuban shirts as well in the trenches. Then they came home, and there was money and power, the problem started when Thabo Mbeki didn’t want Jacob Zuma to be his deputy president of the country.” - Dr. Mathews Phosa launching his Witness To Power book at @ULvarsity 🇿🇦
