“Only the government can act on illegal immigration” - Ramaphosa

In a televised address to South Africans, President Cyril Ramaphosa said that illegal immigration is not the cause of the socio-economic challenges that unemployed South Africans face.

"The answer must be faster economic growth and industrial development, infrastructure development and the creation of millions jobs. These are things my government is working on," Ramaphosa stated on state broadcaster SABC.

The South African president noted that immigration is a global issue. Ramaphosa pointed out that South Africa is a "product of migration, it is the reason for our diversity.”

The President indicated that South Africa has international obligations on migration and the constitutional values that the country accepts people from war torn countries and other areas of the world where a need arises.

Ramaphosa made it clear that illegal immigrants will be acted upon. However, the President outlined that the only his government can act on immigration, even emphasising that only officials and no other members of the public are allowed to do so.

The Namibia Training Authority (NTA) has announced plans to establish a state-owned Vocational Training Centre (VTC) in Omuthiya, a move aimed at expanding access to technical and vocational education and training in Namibia.

During a courtesy visit to the Oshikoto Regional Council on Friday, 5 June 2026, NTA Chief Executive Officer Erick Nenghwanya and his technical team briefed regional leadership on the project’s progress and implementation plans.

According to the NTA, consultation, design and procurement processes are already underway. Construction of the training facility is expected to commence in September 2026 and will take approximately 24 months to complete.

Once operational, the centre is expected to serve students from across the country, providing skills development opportunities and strengthening Namibia’s vocational education sector. The project is also anticipated to contribute to workforce development and support the country’s broader industrialisation and economic growth objectives.

Zambia Partners with @Huawei on AI and E-Government Plans

Zambia's SMART Zambia Institute has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Huawei to support the rollout of cloud and artificial intelligence infrastructure across government ministries.

The agreement, signed during the Zambia Mobile Congress 2026 in Lusaka, covers technology transfer, AI deployment, a feasibility study for a national AI data centre, and the training of 5,000 ICT professionals through Huawei's ICT Academy by 2028.

Government officials said the initiative aims to strengthen e-government services while reducing reliance on foreign technical expertise and ensuring data security.

The agreement forms part of the Digital Zambia Acceleration Programme, which includes plans to install 2,000 kilometres of fibre optic infrastructure, connect 500 government institutions, and issue four million digital IDs by 2031.

SABC Defends R704 Million Educational Programming Funding

The South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) has defended a R704 million government allocation over three years for educational and children’s programming, saying the funding is dedicated to fulfilling its public service mandate and does not constitute a bailout.

The funding, amounting to approximately R234 million annually, is provided by the Department of Communications and Digital Technologies through the National Treasury. However, the SABC says it costs at least R2 billion per year to deliver its public service obligations, leaving a significant funding gap that must be covered through commercial revenue.

Among the programmes funded through the allocation are Geleza Nathi, Skeem Saam, My Night, Our Space and https://t.co/cjoHR1oi4q. The broadcaster noted that several additional programmes are still being contracted or acquired.

The SABC said the funds are ringfenced and can only be used for educational and children’s content. Quarterly reports on spending are submitted to government to ensure accountability and prevent misuse of public funds.
