A law firm is appointed to represent the NYDA Board Chairperson in her personal case against a Sunday Times journalist.
No one knows what process was followed.
CFO doesn’t know.
Company Secretary doesn’t know.
Legal Office doesn’t know.
Public resources are going to be used, and no one knows what process was followed.
This is why we need the youth to register to vote!
See the way they are celebrating SA losing a game, the day they hear South Africa is no longer a functioning state they will do the same. Guard your country with all you have, they can always go back to theirs, where will you go?
A few days ago, I tweeted that I think the DA will lose its majority in the City of Cape Town. That opinion has resulted in me receiving thousands of DMs containing rape and death threats from DA members/supporters.
You are welcome to disagree with my opinion. If I am wrong, I am wrong. But threatening me with sexual violence because you disagree with my view is disgusting.
In addition, I have been threatened with having my job as a journalist made “difficult”. I have been told I will not be given comment when I ask for it and that my editors will be contacted and pressured to remove me from stories.
This is a tactic many of my colleagues warned me about. I have told me to avoid talking about the DA altogether because of threats like these.
Twitter is not journalism. My journalistic integrity is measured by the articles I write, not by the opinions I share on social media. A tweet is not a news article. I did not publish a piece of reporting; I expressed an opinion.
In a country where GBV claims the lives of hundreds of women yearly and has been declared a national crisis, it is completely unacceptable that I am receiving rape threats for expressing a political opinion. This is not simply another aspect of my job. While threats and attacks against journalists are sadly common, nobody would be threatening me with rape if I were a man.
I will not be silenced because I expressed a view.
In 2023, I publicly stated that I believed the ANC would lose its majority in 2024. Many people disagreed with me, but I did not receive a single rape threat from ANC members or supporters.
I do not speak about the DA more than any other political party. Analysing political parties is literally my job as a political analyst. What disgusts me is that in a country with constitutional protections for freedom of expression, a young woman can be threatened with rape and violence simply for making a political prediction.
Disagree with me if you want. Argue with me. Tell me I am wrong. But do not threaten my safety because you dislike my opinion.

The mobilisation, based on its framing of problems, DOES invite violence & hate. There is no way it is not going to result into mass looting & bloodshed.
We know what we are talking about. We have organised marches since we were teenagers. We have looong engaged in nation scale agitation against - corruption, fees, anti-black racism and white supremacy. We have done nationwide shutdowns, confronted the establishment right from its heart for economic freedom & international solidarity.
We are not NEW to this! We know it!
We can see Counter-Revolution from far!
It will not end well! Above all: it will not have any social or economic benefit from it. Zero! Just a country in ruin!
We keep telling you, stop it, but you think you are heroic. Your handlers seek the destabilisation and international isolation of South Africa. And you are handing it to them on a silver platter- it will not end well!
There is a BETTER way to deal with your problems: this is not it.
You left those who are the cause of your unemployment, poverty and corruption unchallenged. You will only succeed to ruin your country- that is all!
Again: I impress on you- stop this movement, it only leads to self-mutilation, self-sabotage and self-ruin
WATCH | Former President Thabo Mbeki says unemployment and crime in South Africa are genuine concerns but warns that blaming foreign nationals for the country's economic challenges is misguided.
A white Jeffreys Bay EFF member said he is sick and tired of claims that the party — and its leader Julius Malema — hates white people and wants to kill them.
