I have noticed a pattern: once the perpetrator of GBV against women is a non-South African, activism dies down.
A Nigerian national was found with the belongings of the deceased woman whose brutal murder sparked protest. Where are activists now, especially Women for Change?
🇿🇦Can you actually believe what Home Affairs Minister Leon Schreiber just did? He went and brought back the Immigration Advisory Board, and just look at the shocking team he put in charge‼️⁉️
The people he picked to tell him what to do:
▪️Mavuso Msimang keeping the big corporate machine running.
▪️You have Andreas Krensel, a foreign-born corporate boss who runs a giant company helping people move into our country, sitting right as the deputy head of our national board!
▪️James Chapman from the Scalabrini Centre whose whole job is fighting in court to stop deportations.
▪️Stefanie de Saude-Darbandi, a high-profile lawyer who makes her money fighting the Department of Home Affairs over citizenship fights, now sitting at the table giving advice!
These people are never, ever going to help us. This board is not made for us—it is made to go against us.
When does this stop? Why does our government feel like it is working against us? They are using our tax money to put corporate fixers and activist lawyers into power, making sure our laws get broken and our townships and villages get left behind.
It makes you look at every single Thursday, at every single march we do, and wonder: Are we just wasting our time out there? Because while we are out on the streets fighting for our country and demanding law and order, and shouting for the closing of illegal spaza shops, the government sits in big offices giving jobs to people whose whole career is doing the exact opposite. Instead of helping us, they are hurting us more and more every single day.
When is enough going to be enough?!

Immigration Advisory Board appointed for the first time in a decade, says Schreiber
https://t.co/gUAoFuSHkl
Turns out, the chairperson of the Scalabrini nonsense NGO is a member of the Immigration Advisory Board inside the Home Affairs committee.
His name is James Chapman 😳😳😳
Is that not a conflict of interest type of bias????? How did the Concourt not pick that up?
Scalabrini's Zimbabwean-born Head of Advocacy is also a member of the Immigration Advisory Board. When we flagged this conflict of interest the department just ignored us.
🇿🇦Remember that woman who worked for both the Home Affairs and against Home Affairs by serving on the advisory board while at the same time representing a client (Chidimma) who is taking Home Affairs to court? Remember her? Well it turns out she's not the only issue we may have on that Home Affairs advisory board.
Serving on that same board, is the deputy chairperson of that board Mr. Andreas Krensel, who was born and raised in Germany. Let this sink in. We have a German in our immigration affairs. Thanks to the DA.
Then there's Mr. James Chapman. And this one I have a serious problem with. Because he has worked in the NGO space. The same NGOs that challenge our governments and prevent and interrupt our governance. He has worked for Scalabrini Centre of Cape Town which had legal campaigns to challenge our regulations to protect foreigners.
These are the people that the DA Minister Leon Schreiber has brought into our Home Affairs. Just imagine. He brought in a legal practitioner who is also working with clients that challenge the same Home affairs she's working for. He brought in a German to come and decide our immigration fate. And he has brought in someone from the NGO space with a history of challenging us on immigration on behalf of foreigners. Do you guys see the inside job that the DA is doing? They are deliberately infiltrating our immigration systems.

Llyod Nedohe, boss of GCIS which gives Media24 approximately R20m for advertising tenders (Notices etc). Can those who know him ask similar questions as those @AdriaanBasson asked KZN govt about @JacintaNgobese
Just want to see if others are allowed to critic & earn
Pieter Du Toit and husband have received multimillion rands of dubiously funded contracts to run a loss-making newspaper. Though their qualifications in this sector seem clearly lacking and their reporting seriously inept. Fixed it
A South African woman was gang-raped by 8 illegal immigrants who then tried to kill her. She survived.
The State failed her, allowing lawlessness while protecting those who shouldn't be here in the first place.
Any private attorney on CONTINGENCY FEE willing to help her sue the State and find justice?
