Nobody in government gives a shit Neil.
The average person living in this country must look for a NEW government which seeks to eliminate poverty within a decade.
South Africa stood a great chance to obliterate poverty by 2004 but ANC chose GEAR and continues with it in 2026

🚨 SPECIAL REPORT | THE HUMAN COST OF IDENTITY THEFT
The Department of Home Affairs (DHA) investigation into former Miss South Africa contestant and Miss Universe Nigeria, Chidimma Adetshina, has cast a harsh spotlight on the severe human cost of identity duplication in South Africa. While public attention has focused heavily on Adetshina’s pageantry career, an innocent South African family has been left dealing with decades of systemic nightmares.
According to official Home Affairs findings, the crisis began when a South African mother from Tshwane (Pretoria) had her identity stolen and duplicated. This stolen identity was illegally used by Adetshina’s mother, Anabela Rungo, to register Chidimma’s birth in 2001.
For the innocent South African family, this duplication triggered a cascading administrative catastrophe. The problem typically manifests when children reach school-going age. Victims often discover the fraud during pivotal academic moments such as registering for matric examinations or applying to universities. Because two entirely different sets of academic achievements are logged under a single ID number, the national database (Umalusi) flags the records, leading to automatic rejections from higher education institutions.
Victims of identity duplication face an uphill battle. Families frequently report visiting Home Affairs offices, only to be told to wait until the child turns 16 to apply for a Smart ID card, under the assumption that the system will flag the fraudster.
However, even when victims successfully clear their names through fingerprint verification and obtain official clarification letters, the damage is deep. The administrative mismatch leaves young, qualified South Africans unable to secure university placement, open bank accounts, or find employment, often leaving them confined to their homes and suffering from depression.
Following a thorough investigation, the DHA established prima facie evidence of fraud committed by Adetshina’s mother. As a result, both Adetshina and her mother had their South African identity and travel documents officially cancelled.
The legal battle has now moved to the judiciary. The deportation and civil matter involving Chidimma Adetshina before the Cape Town Magistrate's Court has been officially postponed to 27 February 2027, pending the outcome of high-stakes High Court proceedings regarding her residency and legal status.
But here’s the real question: How many ordinary South Africans are still paying the price for identity duplication and a broken system?

It really does not matter whether ANC councillors, mayors, premiers , ministers, etc have matric or PhD in Astrophysics.
For as long as ANC policy of maintaining and entrenching the apartheid system continues nothing will change

Every Sunday, for the next several weeks and months, I will be dropping a file on Paul Robert O’Sullivan as part of a series titled #TheNakedTruth.
I am doing this on behalf of all the victims of Paul O’Sullivan, the men and women he falsely accused, intimidated, harassed and blackmailed over the years.
For years, O’Sullivan called me a crook, a criminal and a state-capture enabler. I chose to remain silent, not because I was afraid of him, but because I respected the rules, regulations and obligations of the organisation I worked for at the time.
That chapter is now closed.
I am my own boss. I make my own decisions, and I answer for them.
So now, it is time to put the facts, the documents and the evidence on the table and allow the public to decide for themselves who has been telling the truth.
This is not about revenge. It is about accountability, transparency and putting the record straight.
I am not one of the generation of cowards.
Every Sunday. Every file. Every piece of evidence.

HEADLINE: THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM: AFRIFORUM AND THE THREAT OF VUKA AZANIA
Could AfriForum’s move towards March and March have been driven by something larger than migration politics? This article asks whether the real threat to Afriforum is Vuka Azania’s decolonial challenge to the political language of land, sovereignty, ownership and Black institutional power. #AfriForum #VukaAzania #MarchAndMarch #AfricanSovereignty #Decolonisation #BlackPoliticalPower #LandAndSovereignty #SouthAfricaPolitics #EconomicLiberation #AntiImperialism

⚖ ⚖ 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 | It's the law enforcement institutions in South Africa that endagers the lives of citizens; the HAWKS, Office of the Public Protector, Crime Intelligence and others. We have been saying this for a long time. Now its coming out!🤷🏻♂️
📑 They leak people's confidential information to 3rd parties even to the media to publish. They do this for people to get targeted, defamed, and assassinated. Ask them, they know what we are talking about. There is evidence. Politicians are of course involved in these treasonous crimes.
These are people who took an OATH office; others are lawyers. And you still wondering why the criminal justice system is dead?
The Department of Employment and Labour has failed to regulate the digital industry.
Innovation that doesn’t abide with minimum labour standards is exploitation. We must not glorify exploitation in the name of innovation.

John Nangoza Jebe was a South African volunteer shot by apartheid police on March 23, 1956, during a Good Friday procession in Port Elizabeth. His death is commemorated in the poem "For a Dead African" by Dennis Brutus.
📑 | You also need to be very careful of all of these things that are being created purporting to be ❝For the people.❞
Some are genuine; others are foreign funded 💰 to present itself as a solution to challenges faced by citizens. Yet there are underlying agendas.
𝗜𝗻 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽; a lot of organizations, NGOs, political parties mushroom all over the place to cause confusion and shift focus. Others are just con-artists; they don't mean a word of what they are saying. While others want to see change and a better life for people.
It's a world of opportunism!
Nigade! Open your eyes ✌🏼
🔔 | Just another reminder of the people who were colluding, coordinating, doing defamation and targeting citizens. Naba! 👇🏼 together with rogue Crime Intelligence that profiles people for no reason. And they leak confidential information to the media and other 3rd parties.
There are many others. They just break the law and violate human rights. They don't even care as long as corrupt politicians get what they want which is abuse of state power and resources.
..@sedfa_dsbd gives us the data. We ask questions about the data. The response from Minister of SMALL BUSINESS Development @Stellarated? ‘Go Google it if you’re serious.’
Accountability, but make it Google.

The Department of Employment and Labour will appear before the Portfolio Committee tomorrow to account on the digital platform economy.
What’s clear is that innovation has outpaced legislation and they have failed to regulate the industry.
