🇿🇦 South Africans don’t need another speech. We need jobs, safety, housing, clean government and accountability. Taxpayers fund the state — they deserve a state that works for them. Enough is enough. #SouthAfrica#Accountability
@Mzansiawake You’re still talking about Jacinta? 😂 At this point she’s clearly living rent-free in your head. If you disagree with her politics, debate her arguments. Repeating her name and throwing accusations around doesn’t make your argument stronger—it makes the obsession obvious.”
@ZelenskyyUa You keeps asking for billions more for weapons and defence, but where is the same urgency for peace? Every additional weapon and billions in funding prolong the war’s costs. Europe should push harder for negotiations and a lasting peace.”@ZelenskyyUa
@MDNnewss “New technology after decades in power? South Africans living in shacks, using pit toilets and without electricity have heard enough promises. The ANC has had decades to deliver basic services. Stop celebrating the remaining 6–7% and explain why anyone was left behind.”
@Our_DA Before promising to take towns back,tell Cape Town residents when you’re taking our communities back from gangs, extortion and corrupt officials.Poor families live with the consequences every night.They need arrests, convictions and protection—not another polished election speech
@MbalulaFikile Our people are energetic today, but when the votes are counted, will you remember them? Poor and vulnerable communities deserve leaders who return after elections, not politicians who disappear once the campaign ends and the ballot boxes are closed
@Markosonke1 Shared history does not mean South Africa must carry Zimbabwe’s problems. Our hospitals, schools, colleges and resources are already under pressure while ordinary South Africans struggle. Cooperation must come with responsibility, secure borders, lawful migration.
@Newzroom405 All good and well, but what about the gangsters and big bosses driving crime and extortion in poor communities? Arresting municipal employees is necessary, but South Africans need the people financing and organising criminal networks exposed and prosecuted too.
@BBCWorld This is exactly why South Africa cannot romanticise open borders. Nigeria faces horrific insecurity and mass abductions, yet some politicians demand fewer border controls. South Africans deserve secure borders, lawful immigration and government that puts their safety first.
@AfricaisBlack You can’t pretend Malema has never contributed to the border debate. He explicitly told SADC nationals to find ‘creative ways’ into South Africa when borders were closed.but that original statement is on record. Hold politicians accountable for their words, regardless of party.”
@GovernmentZA Economic cooperation is welcome, but how can this relationship be sustainable while South Africa faces significant undocumented migration? Stronger trade must come with stronger border management, lawful migration and accountability. South Africa cannot carry Zimbabwe’s economy.
@Our_DA You say you know how to fix municipalities, but Cape Town still has communities battling gang violence, poverty and informal settlements. If the DA has the proven plan, show residents the measurable results. South Africans need delivery, not another manifesto full of promises.
@denialmustend “I disagree. SouthA has serious inequality, but calling people ‘perpetually disadvantaged’ suggests their circumstances can never change. The goal of policy should be to remove barriers, expand opportunity and ensure people can build better lives—not permanently label generations
@eNCA Honest and transparent public servants? South Africans have heard that speech for decades. If the ANC wants voters to believe it, show us the results: less corruption, safer communities, reliable services and accountability. Words are cheap; performance is what matters.
@Mzansiawake Calling an apology “fake” doesn’t make it fake, and accusing someone of betraying Black people because they engaged with AfriForum is political theatre. Challenge Jacinta’s actual words and actions, but stop pretending guilt by association is proof of betrayal.
@John_Mphatsoe@MYANC@ANCJHB After decades in charge, the ANC wants another manifesto and another vote while crime,unemployment,corruption, border failures and shack settlements continue. How many more promises must South Africans endure before this party accepts responsibility for the mess it helped create?
@Sophie_Mokoena@SABCNews Who actually benefits from these mining deals? Ordinary South Africans living in shacks need jobs, housing and better services, not another promise of regional industrialisation. And where are the full disclosures of politicians’ financial interests in these mining companies?
@Sophie_Mokoena South Africa can lead the regional response as SADC chair, but it cannot carry every crisis alone. Ebola requires shared responsibility from SADC members, the African Union and international health organisations, with transparent funding and accountability.
@Sophie_Mokoena South Africa can lead SADC, but it cannot become the region’s permanent bank account. Taxpayers already face unemployment, poverty and failing services. Regional projects need transparent funding, shared responsibility and clear benefits for South Africans first.
@ali_naka Historic solidarity is important, but it cannot mean South Africa carries Zimbabwe’s problems. Zimbabwe must take responsibility for its citizens, while South Africa protects its borders, enforces immigration law and prioritises its own struggling people and resources first.
@TimesLIVE This is exactly why inspections and enforcement cannot happen only when the cameras arrive. A butchery must meet strict hygiene, labour and safety standards. If these allegations are confirmed, shut it down, investigate the owners and hold everyone responsible accountable.
