10 April 2025- The Democratic Alliance (DA) leader, John Steenhuisen said they joined the Government of National Unity (GNU) with one clear purpose, to help grow South Africa’s economy and create jobs. Steenhuisen said they remain fully committed to this goal.
He further said to achieve this, the ANC must now demonstrate that it is equally committed to the spirit and substance of sharing power, which is a natural consequence of the last election. Steenhuisen said the electorate sent a clear message.
“Single party rule is over and no one party gets to dictate our policy direction. South Africa needs an era of co-governance, built on the implementation of bold, pro-growth reforms that create jobs and restores fiscal stability.
“That is why the DA signed the Statement of Intent and entered the GNU — we wanted shared governance that prioritises delivery and economic recovery over political convenience,” he said.
He further said the DA has been clear and consistent about its position on VAT inside government and outside government. Steenhuisen added that, not once has the DA gone outside of the GNU to lobby support for its position, which is what the ANC did, defining itself outside the GNU.
“We have placed, before the President, a comprehensive set of proposals that will unlock growth and jobs. These are real, practical solutions that are necessary and foundational to secure South Africa’s fiscal future — and we are ready to implement them.
“We look forward to discussing a clear reform agenda for growth and jobs with the ANC,” he said.

10 April 2025- Netball South Africa, in partnership with proud sponsors, Telkom is delighted to announce the exciting return of the Telkom Netball League. Africa’s largest franchise Netball competition officially gets underway on 26 April 2025, with the Sun City Superbowl in the North West, confirmed as the official hosts of this year’s edition.
As a result of its ever-growing magnitude, the Telkom Netball League remains Africa’s premier franchise netball tournament and continues to be an exciting platform for the showcasing of the best Netball talent. Supported by a strong partnership between Netball South Africa and proud sponsors Telkom, this year’s edition promises to be bigger and better, along with two exciting additional teams, the SPAR Baby Proteas (South Africa’s U-21) as well as invitational side, Zimbabwe.
The inclusion of the SPAR Baby Proteas reflects both Netball South Africa and Telkom’s joint and unwavering commitment to developing the sport and providing young talent with a platform to showcase its ability. This year’s edition will also be of great significance for the SPAR Baby Proteas, as the team gears up for the Netball World Youth Cup campaign in Gibraltar later this year.
As in previous editions, the Telkom Netball League will be held over three action packed Power Weeks, with the backing of the Bojanala Municipality:
The first edition officially gets underway between 26 April – 04 May 2025 at the Sun City Superbowl, where fans can expect high-octane netball action.
The Second Power Week resumes between 13-17 June 2025, with the last edition scheduled for 14-20 July to determine who will be crowned champion.
Four-time champions, Free State Crinums will be looking at defending their Division A title, while KwaZulu-Natal Kingdom Stars are set to prove themselves once again after missing out on the promotion to Division A following their loss to Limpopo Baobabs.
Speaking ahead of the much-anticipated season, Netball South Africa President, Cecilia Molokwane, expressed excitement about the growth of the league. “This season, the Telkom Netball League provides an even bigger platform for both seasoned stars and emerging talent to showcase their skills.
“As Netball SA, we are proud to be associated with a league that remains committed to developing the next generation of netball champions, ensuring that every player has the opportunity to shine on the national stage,” she said.
Molokwane said this season, they are thrilled to introduce a ground-breaking addition to the TNL league — the SPAR Baby Proteas will compete as the 17th team in preparation for the upcoming Netball Youth World Cup. She said this will make this season’s TNL even bigger, as it will now be themed around the ‘Road to Gibraltar’ – a Netball SA campaign that aims to celebrate the journey of the SPAR Baby Proteas towards the Netball Youth World Cup 2025.
“The participation of the Baby Proteas in this year’s league marks a significant milestone in their development – providing them with invaluable experience and a solid foundation for success on the world stage,” said Molokwane.
The NSA President’s sentiments were echoed by Telkom’s Brand and Communications Executive, Hellen Dinawane, saying that the Telkom Netball League underscores the telecoms company’s invested efforts into making a difference in South African communities through the strong impact of Netball. Dinawane said the Telkom Netball League signifies a strong and mutually beneficial partnership that Telkom continues to enjoy with Netball South Africa.
“Through this partnership, Telkom continues to effectively demonstrate its commitment to serving and making a positive impact to the lives of young and aspiring Netball players.
“We look forward to yet another exciting, but more importantly impactful Telkom Netball League season. With less than a month to go before the much-anticipated showdown in the North West, fans can look forward to electrifying matches and fan engaging activities,” she said.
Meanwhile, Netball South Africa will soon confirm fixtures, ticketing details as well as broadcast schedules in due course.

10 April 2025- The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Northern Cape said while at least three schools in the province remained closed at the start of the second term yesterday, it requested that the Northern Cape MECs for Finance and Education be urgently summoned to report to a joint committee of the Northern Cape Provincial Legislature.
The DA provincial spokesperson on Education and a Member of Provincial Legislature (MPL), Priscilla Isaacs said they are seeing a repeat of the crisis that engulfed schools at the start of the 2025 academic year. Isaacs said by the Northern Cape Department of Education’s own calculations, it owed school communities more than R181.8 million in February 2025.
“This included R100.702 million for school maintenance and just over R54 million for textbooks, stationery and similar materials. Despite promises made by both MEC Venus Blennies-Magage and Abraham Vosloo at our last joint meeting in February, many schools are reportedly still waiting for the promised financial support.
“Due to the ongoing non-payment of essential funds by the Northern Cape Department of Education, some schools report a serious lack of basic necessities, like the school in Grootdrink experiencing a lack of toilet paper,” she said.
Isaacs further said although the department promised to pay R5 million to hostels, there is still a shortfall of more than R4.4 million and schools only received partial payments of their budgeted subsidies for the year. She added that the underfunding means that schools cannot afford to buy food.
“The primary school hostel in Brandvlei has neither food nor water on the premises for the young children in their care. The hostel of the Rietfontein High School near Upington did not reopen, creating immense stress for the parents and caregivers who cannot afford to make suitable alternative arrangements at such short notice.
“Non-payment of municipal accounts continues to result in disconnections of electricity supply, reported by schools as far afield as Postmasburg, Calvinia, Victoria West, and Colesberg,” said Isaacs.
She said the Blinkklip High School in Postmasburg remains closed as the school did not have electricity supply since January. Isaacs said they cannot afford to have learners sitting in the dark when the department promised R6.3 million to assist with municipal account bailouts.
“In our written request, I’ve asked for an update on the department’s financial status, timelines for payments to schools, feedback on the functionality of hostels, and a report on the implementation of school feeding schemes.
“Both MECs must fulfil their promise to account to the Legislature. Children deserve access to education and should not bear the brunt of bad financial judgement exercised by the provincial government,” she said.

10 April 2025- The North West Provincial Legislature Standing Committee on Provincial Public Accounts (SCOPA) will hold a Public Finance Management Act public hearings with the District Municipalities over the 2023/24 audit outcomes and to seek clarity from responses on questions emanating from the Auditor General’s reports.
The SCOPA provincial chairperson, Smuts Matshe said the PFMA public hearings are scheduled to take place at Legislature Auditorium. Matshe said they will meet the Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipality on 11 April 2025 at 8am until 10am.
“Then we will meet the Bojanala District Municipality from 10am until 12h30, while the meeting with Dr Ruth Segomotsi Mompati District Municipality, will be at 1:30pm until 3:30pm.
“We will meet Dr Kennth Kaunda District Municipality from 4pm until 6pm,” he said.
10 April 2025- The Democratic Alliance (DA) has requested the Northern Cape MEC for Sport, Arts and Culture, Mangaliso Matika, to investigate the legality of a series of provincial name changes over the past ten years, given the absence of a functional Provincial Geographic Name Change Committee (PGNC) since 2015. The DA said in response to its concerns raised during the 2024/2025 Annual Performance Plan presentation, the department has revealed that the last PGNC term started in 2011 and was extended for another year at the end of 2014.
The DA provincial spokesperson for Sport, Arts and Culture, Reinette Liebenberg, who is also a Member of Provincial Legislature (MPL) said there has been no PGNC since 2015, as the department claims that it is difficult to establish the necessary requirements due to the process being coordinated by the office of the MEC. Liebenberg said the DA is concerned that the department may have spent millions on illegally changing geographical names in the province.
“We have warned the department about this since 2022, when we first found out that the Northern Cape is the only province without a functional PGNC in place.
“Matika now has a duty to probe the legality of the name changes and to hold the department accountable for contravening the South African Geographical Names Council Act 1998 (Act 118 of 1998),” she said.
Liebenberg further said he must also explain what happened to the filling of the advertised vacancies for board members in 2023, following a commitment by former MEC, Desery Fienies, that positions for board members would be advertised. She added that the DA will further submit questions to determine exactly which names were changed by the department since 2015, how much was spent on the name changes and whether public participation was fairly instituted.
“Name changes must not come at an unwarranted cost to the province,” said Liebenberg.

10 April 2025- The Minister of Tourism, Patricia De Lille said on behalf of the entire tourism sector, she welcomes the recent announcement by United Airlines that it will be increasing its flights to South Africa. De Lille said the United Airlines recently announced that it will be expanding its African network by introducing a new long-haul service from Washington Dulles Airport to Cape Town International Airport.
“This route was launched in November 2022, operating three times a week and has been hugely successful. United Airlines’ second African route, linking Newark with Johannesburg, operates daily since June 2021 and this route will also be expanded by the airline.
“In 2024, arrivals from the United States of America (USA) stood at over 430 000, up by more than 21 000 or 5.2% compared to 2023. A further testament to the impact of direct flights on arrivals is that in 2023, arrivals from the USA stood at over 409 000, an increase of more than 111 000 or 37.4% compared to 2022, when direct flights between South Africa and the USA were introduced,” she said.
De Lille further said they welcome this development and announcement by United Airlines to increase the number of flights
between South Africa and the USA, as the route has been in high demand and has made travel significantly more seamless between the two countries. She added that, the Airlift is a crucial factor for the tourism sector as direct flights make travel between destinations more desirable and is proven to increase tourism arrivals between countries.
“We are excited about this development and look forward to the positive impact it will have on arrivals to South Africa. The USA is one of South Africa’s top source markets and we will continue efforts to grow arrivals even more from the USA to South Africa,” said De Lille.

By BAKANG MOKOTO
10 April 2025- Speaking recently at the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) on the occasion of the debate on housing inadequacy in South Africa and the prevalence of informal settlements, North West MEC for Cooperative Governance, Human Settlements and Traditional Affairs (COGHSTA), Oageng Molapisi, has acknowledged that his department is currently facing housing backlogs due to amongst others the non effective operational municipal system and thus hinders and delays the department to provide adequate housing to the people.
Molapisi said the department is aware of the municipal infrastructure units’ shortcomings such as the deterioration of the infrastructure and therefore having significant effect in housing delivery is compromised.
He further highlighted budget cuts and increase in population as other factors impacting the delivery of houses in the province. He added that, for instance, the province used to get R2 billion in grant funding nearly ten years ago, but like many provinces, that has since changed.
“The targeted delivery of homes and serviced sites decreased as a result of budget cuts that cut off R400 million just two fiscal years ago. With regards to the increasing number of informal settlements in the province, the department continues to observe the expansion of informal settlements, especially at the mining towns due to potential employment opportunities.
“Municipalities are also inundated with constant land invasions putting pressure to the department to respond expeditiously to provide basic services thereby disrupting normal planning cycle and processes,” said Molapisi.
He said they cannot shy away from the fact that informal settlements are increasing. Molapisi said is for this reason that the National Department of Human Settlements has adopted the White Paper for Human Settlements (2024), which provides for a tacit approach to address challenges arising from informal settlements.
“To align and play our part, the North West Department of Human Settlements has just completed an informal settlement upgrading strategy after which it will commence with informal settlements upgrading projects”.
“In addition, the Department of Human Settlements is working closely with the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs in the province to resolve challenges of bulk infrastructure at affected municipalities,” he said.
Molapisi said through the COGTA Bulk Infrastructure Committee (BIC), they have taken advantage of the Infrastructure South Africa (ISA) bid window to apply for bulk infrastructure projects. He said they are working around the clock to try source available funding to alleviate the situation.
“We remain committed to creating sustainable human settlements. It is our considered view that the restoration of our people’s dignity rests in housing them in habitable homes with basic amenities. The Department of Human Settlements is putting a spotlight on issues of lack of bulk infrastructure for human settlements projects, as well as promoting integration of social and economic aspects thereby yielding dividends in terms of spatial planning, community services and broader quality of life for our citizens.
“Through the District Development Model (DDM), we are encouraging our municipalities to consider using bylaws to address land invasions coupled with planning to formalise old settlements on available vacant state land,” said Molapisi.
9 April 2025- “Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but the chains of oppression, and you have the world to gain.”
During the SACP Special National Congress the SACP took the decision to contest the 2026 local elections independently from ANC. However, the issue of the SACP and the state power has been a hotly contested debate since the relaunch of the YCL in 2006, culminating in a situation whereby some in the SACP has been talking about contesting the election under the so-called reconfigured alliance that includes ANC/SACP/COSATU and SANCO.
We can actually characterise this tendency as a rupture. The decision must not be interpreted as a war between the ANC and the left axis within the
country led by SACP and COSATU, but as advancing the Special National Congress resolution that talks about rejecting some nationalist and bourgeoisie reformist agenda.
One can cite the ANC-DA led GNU as a classic example of the bourgeoisie reformist agenda. Neither is this about bolshevism versus menshivsm. Recently, the former National Secretary of the YCL, Comrade Buti Manamela in his article entitled: “An army of Generals? Reflections on the SACP’s political Capacity and the crisis of hegemony”, raised a very crucial debate on the matters, some which warrant us as Marxist to apply our dialectical tools of analysis.
However, the issue which I think needs us to reflect is the state of the party and its organs, as well as resources and if indeed we are ready to contest the election in a toxic capitalist environment? Although in South Africa it will be the first time that the SACP is contesting elections outside the boundaries of the alliance, it will not necessarily be the first time that the leftist party is contesting the elections.
Previously we have seen parties like SOPA (Socialist party of Azania) WOSA and the latest in 2019, was the party formed by NUMSA and led by Irvin Jim called SRWP (Socialist Revolutionary Workers party), which only got 0.15% in the 2019 elections and did not contest the 2024 elections. But at the same
time, the party must avoid falling into the trap of ultra-leftists’ formation like the Spartacist formation in the US that have been calling for the SACP and COSATU, to break away from what they called deformed bourgeoisie state, which basically serves to create schism within the tripartite alliance.
Previously the SACP contested the elections in Metsimaholo and won 3 seats. Some might ask if the party is trying to resuscitate the old and failed debate over the two-stage theory in which the first stage of NDR will be led by the ANC and the second stage that will ultimately led us to socialism will be led by SACP, although some deny this debate within our ranks.
But history is littered with left parties and communist parties leading governments globally,
particularly in Latin America. The question is whether SACP will survive the turbulent election turf learning lessons from other left parties globally and locally, also bearing in mind contesting elections is costly in
nature and character.
Beyond the issue of turbulent environment, elections need lot of money and resources
something which might cripple the party especially in a capitalist environment whereby the
bourgeoisie are not willing to fund working class formations like SACP that advance the
agenda for socialism and ultimately communism, unless we will have to rely on our allies
within the trade union movement. However, we must welcome the gesture of NUM,
NEHAWU and POPCRU among other COSATU affiliates to back the decision of the SACP
special National congress to contest the elections.
The question remains what to be done, if I have to paraphrase Lenin? Especially in the era
whereby the SACP finds itself at the crossroad. On the 27 March – 2 April 2025, Financial Mail
posed a question that, if the decision of the SACP to contest the election will result in death
or glory?
Something that we can’t simply dismiss as another headline by the bourgeoisie media, but that warrants us communist to deeply reflect on the matter.
GLOBAL LEFTIST FORMATIONS IN POWER
Across the globe, we have some communist and workers parties leading governments across
the globe inter-alia: The CPC (Communist Party of CUBA) leading the CUBAN government,
the CPC (Communist Party of China) leading China, the Communist Party of Vietnam in
Vietnam, the Workers Party of Korea leading the DPRK (Democratic Republic of Korea) aka
North Korea, the Communist Party of NEPAL (Maoist) leading NEPAL, AKEL in Cyprus the
Sandinista movement in Nicaragua that previously lost power and later regain it, when it
won power again.
In India, we have seen the Communist party of India Marxist (CPI-M) leading the Kerala state,
we have seen the workers party PT led by Inancio Lula Da Silva leading Brazil and
having massive success among Brazilians. This led to a scenario whereby COSATU was
calling for the Lula moment in SA, later Lula power and he recently regained power again in
October 2023.
The same year in June 2023, another leftist candidate Gustavo Petro won
elections in Colombia. The same applies to PSUV led by the late Hugo Chavez and later Nicolas Maduro leading the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela named after the struggle Icon Simon Bolivar and having massive success in Venezuela.
We have seen Chile under Michelle Ballet and Bolivia under MAS (Movement for advancement of Socialism) led by Evo Morales winning massive
success in Bolivia. In Mexico, the candidate of the Left Claudia Sheinbann has been leading
Mexico as a successor to Andres Manuel Lopez.
IS THE LEFT UNDER CRUCIFICATION GLOBALLY
We have seen the arrest of Lula Inancio Da Silva and Rouseff Dilma in Brazil, the
victimization of Evo Morales in Bolivia, as well as Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, the
assassination of Allende in Chile, the imperialist sanction and attack on the sovereign state
of CUBA, the destabilisation of Honduras among others.
The question is whether the SACP
will also not be victimised by the capitalist and the imperialist forces like another global leftist
formations. During May 2024 elections, we have seen the increasing capitalist offensive
campaign against the ANC that seeks to instigate the regime change agenda in SA, including
funding some reactionary opposition parties that seek to topple the ANC-led government.
Within the alliance, the SACP has been complaining about some of the posture that have
been undertaken by its alliance partner dating back from the era of the 1996 class project
until now under GNU. Something that pushed the party to contest the 2026 elections.
Cde Sifiso Gwala succinctly characterises this tendency as the crisis of hegemony. there is NDR (National Democratic Revolution), which its mission is the emancipation of
blacks in general and Africans in particular from political and economic bondage, the alliance
remain intact towards advancing this vision.
As we debate this thorny issue, let us not reduce it to labelling or to revisit the ghost of Ultra left debate, bearing in mind Marxism is not a dogmatic orthodoxy.
One can recall that the same debate once took place in Russia during the Perestroika and the Glasnost debate. As the former SASCO SG Cde Lazola Ndamase said in this critique to the document of Cde Buti Manamela “Let us rebuild the party’s hegemony not by retreating from the fray, but by charging into it, by rooting ourselves in the struggle of the informalised, casualised and discarded”.
As we continue to critique each other we must at all costs avoid labelling and victimization of other comrades, but bear in mind as Lenin said the task of the Youth League is to learn, learn and learn.

10 April 2025- The North West Department of Health said it is on high alert following confirmation of one cholera case in Rustenburg on 7 April 2025. This comes after the said patient was admitted at Life Peglerae Hospital in Rustenburg on 5 April 2025, and the medical tests were confirmed by National Institution of Communicable Disease (NICD) on 7 April 2024.
The North West MEC for Health, Sello Lehari said cholera is a category 1 of notifiable medical conditions with 1 case declared as an outbreak. Lehari said cholera symptoms can range from mild to severe and include sudden, watery diarrhoea (sometimes described as rice-water stools), vomiting, and dehydration, which can lead to complications like shock and even death if left untreated.
“The patient presented himself with symptoms at the hospital following consumption of a fish allegedly caught in a river, while on vacation a week ago in Limpopo.
“The patient was isolated immediately after confirmation of results and contact tracing was conducted immediately and Northam Platinum mine where the patient is working was alerted of the case to commence tracing and screening,” he said.
He further said cholera symptoms are watery diarrhoea, which is a hallmark symptom, often described as “rice-water stools” due to its pale, milky appearance. Lehari added that this includes vomiting.
“Vomiting can occur especially in the early stages and can worsen dehydration. Other symptoms include leg cramps, muscle cramps, particularly in the legs, are common.
“The individual might feel restlessness or irritability. The Bojanala Outbreak Task Team has been to conduct environmental investigation in collaboration with Municipal Health Services,” said Lehari.
He said health education by Outbreak Response Team to for accelerated community health education and awareness, enhance surveillance and monitoring. Lehari said the causative bacterium is found in food and water sources that have been contaminated by the faeces of an infected person, hence, transmission of the disease is high in places with poor water supply and improper sanitary conditions.
“Water sources like ponds, rivers, streams, lakes and tap water are known to harbour the bacteria and can be transmitted to various persons through food and drinks gotten from these water sources, vegetables grown with infected human waste as fertilizer, as well as the consumption of raw or undercooked fish and other marine foods gotten from polluted water bodies.
“As the province experiences high levels of rainfall, we urge our communities to apply extra care when handling food and consuming water from various sources to protect themselves by ensuring that water source is safe for human consumption or to boil them if in doubt,” he said.
Lehari said cholera is an avoidable disease, if proper care is applied. He said his department and NICD are in high alert and monitoring the situation at the current moment.
10 April 2025- The North West MEC for Health, Sello Lehari said the communities of Taung in Sekhing and Manthe villages are left with optimism and joy following his visit. Lehari graced the areas to deliver on the health delivery commitments made to the communities of the sub-district.
He further said among the commitments made by the department to the communities of Taung is the completion of the Baga-Mothibi Community Health Centre (CHC). Lehari added that this project, which has become a lifeline for the communities scattered in over 16 villages falling under Kgosi Mothibi, was first constructed with a R140m budget estimate.
“The Baga-Mothibi Community Health Centre (CHC) was officially opened by the Deputy President, Paul Mashatile in September 2023. The facility offers 24-hour increased access to healthcare facilities to members of the surrounding communities.
“The latest work to be carried out on this project is for a budget estimate of R56m, which will cover the general building work which include brick and mortar where it is outstanding,” he said.
Lehari said the budget also covers electrical and ICT networks, mechanical, air conditioning, civil works inclusive of water and sewerage reticulation and pavements. He said this will be done in all 16 units of the facilities, which include maternity, Outpatient Department (OPD), staff residence, dental, radiology, medical gas areas and all the areas.
“We caution all stakeholders against delaying the project. We are here to handover to the contractor and the principal consultants. The contractor will begin and complete the remaining scope.
“The project must have the beginning and end. Therefore, project managers and consultants must be held accountable to ensure completion of the project,” said Lehari.
He said the handover, which was also attended by the Baga-Mothibi Traditional Council, the Speaker of the Local Municipality, municipal councillors, the acting DDG for Health Services and the
the District Chief Director, also deliberated on the roles of key stakeholders to make the project a success.
“I expect the contractor to work together with the project manager. The Community Liaison Officer must serve the role of being a link of the project with the community. A project steering committee which receives a sitting allowance should also assist completion of the project by playing its role.
“If we work together and there are no disruptions like rain, we can expect this project to be completed around April 2026,” he said.
In other exciting news, Lehari took time to meet with the Chief of Batlhaping Ba Ga-Maidi, Kgosi Nyoko Motlhabane. The meeting was to reflect on much-anticipated plans to build a Community Health Centre for Batlhaping Ba Ga-Maidi.
“I briefed Motlhabane that Manthe CHC was on the B5 project list, but was not allocated a budget. However, we assured him and his tribal council that following a meeting with the National Department of Health, the CHC will now be allocated a budget for the 2026/27 financial year.
“We were requested at the meeting with National to first make sure that all current projects are completed before the new ones are accommodated. I have been hard at work conducting oversight through my “Re Bona Ka Matlho” programme to make sure that these projects are completed on time,” he said.
Lehari said this will enable them to start new projects, including the new Manthe CHC for Batlhaping Ba Ga-Maidi communities. He said while the Batlhaping Ba Ga-Maidi CHC is earmarked for the 2026/27 financial year, the Ba Ga-Mothibi CHC is a 12 month project estimated to be completed by April 2026.
Meanwhile, the excited Motlhabane, thanked Lehari and the department for the commitment to deliver the CHC. He assured the department for cooperation and alluded to the fact that the tribal council has already identified land for the project.
