JUNE 30 PROTESTS | Some residents in Ekurhuleni on Gauteng's East Rand are counting the cost after their houses were vandalised, they were accused of being foreign nationals and items were also stolen during protests against undocumented immigration. SABC News reporter Neria Hlakotsa has more.
On 18 June 2026, at around 1 PM, I was on my way to the University of Zimbabwe bus stop to catch a kombi into town when I was approached by a young woman with braids wearing a pink jacket. She stopped me and said, “Sister, please wait.”
She then claimed that I had dropped a pink wallet. I told her that I did not own any pink wallet. She then said that another woman had picked up the wallet and that she had found money inside it. She suggested that if the wallet was not mine, we could all share the money.
The woman she referred to was wearing an orange skirt and was walking ahead of us. When she was called over, she stopped and pretended to confirm that the wallet did not belong to me.
Before they could continue with their story, I switched on my phone camera and started recording. I confronted them and asked if they were not ashamed of trying to scam people in Mt Pleasant using the well-known “chadonha” trick.
What I did not know was that they had a getaway vehicle nearby. The driver noticed that I was recording and signalled to them. The woman in the pink jacket then said something to the effect of, “Should we go back?” They immediately ran towards a vehicle and quickly got inside before driving away.
The vehicle they used was a Honda Fit, registration number AGO 2350.

WATCH This incident occurred today, 27 June, at Musami Cross, Domborembudzi. These schoolboys boarded a Bolt Cutter bus at Juru Growth Point heading to Mutoko. The bus was already full when they got on, but they were told there would be seats available shortly.
However, when the bus reached Musami Cross, it became even more overloaded. The boys then asked for a refund for the remaining part of their journey so they could stay behind and find alternative transport.
Instead of being assisted, they were forced off the bus and assauIted by the bus crew. The US$20 they had paid for transport was also not refunded.
Please take action, @PoliceZimbabwe
I received a call from MadziBaba VeShanduko. He is facing serious financial difficulties and is struggling to pay his children’s school fees and provide for their basic upkeep.
His home was burnt down, and he spent eight months in prison for a political crime he did not commit before later being acquitted by the courts.
We have set up a GoFundMe campaign to help him rebuild his life and support his family during this difficult period.
Please donate whatever you can and help spread the word.
RETWEET.

🚨 FIFA statement on Thomas Partey left out of Canada.
“FIFA can confirm that player Thomas Partey will be unable to travel from Ghana's Team Base Camp in Boston, USA, to Canada for their first match against Panama on Wednesday, 17 June, as his visa application has been refused by the Canadian government.
"FIFA is not involved in the immigration processes of host countries, including the adjudication of visas. As with previous FIFA events, the host government ultimately determines who receives a visa and is admitted into the country."
GET YOUR HEADS EXAMINED…Some people really amaze me.
Do you honestly believe that if the Chamisa you constantly gaslight and vilify had agreed to be co-opted by ED, there would have been any need to hire that Chabangu as the manufactured face of a government-sponsored opposition?
Do you think they would have needed CAB3 to deal with the fallout from a disputed presidential election? Would CAB3 have been necessary?
Do you think they would have spent billions in taxpayers' money buying off individuals, organizations, and institutions, including some within the region, to discredit and destroy the very person they were supposedly working with? Why spend billions of taxpayers' dollars buying influence, recruiting allies, mobilizing institutions and giving cars, to destroy the credibility of someone who was supposedly on your side?
Why would an ally cause you sleepless nights.
Give us a break! Kwanai! Miswai! The logic simply does not add up. If someone is part of your project, you do not expend enormous resources undermining, isolating, and dismantling them. You do not wage a sustained campaign against an ally. The very existence of these efforts points to entrenched animosity.
We’re chalk and cheese, oil and water. We can’t mix! And I’m proud of that record! #TheNew
