The Automobile Association says South Africa motorists can expect “massive” fuel price cuts in January

Posted on 12/17/2018 Leave a comment

A spokesperson for the AA said last weekend that calculations indicate that the price of this fuel will fall further during January 2019.

The expectation is that petrol may drop about R1.19 and diesel prices may decrease by R1.44 while lamp oil (paraffin) is expected to fall by R1.32.

Experts say that price is still too high and should fall by at least another R4.20, but the eagerness of the regime makes the motorist a the most convenient target to exploit .

Sly criminals pocketed money donations for Jacob Zuma’s legal costs in lawless stunt

Posted on 12/17/2018 Leave a comment

Blacks who are sly criminals are collecting money to help pay the legal costs of Jacob Zuma, but are make sure that they put the donations into their own pockets.

The crooks are not only based in Natal where they cheat uninformed people with the stunt, because the same trick has also been observed in Central Transvaal.

The ANC spokesmen say they will not discourage anyone who wants to help Zuma to blame for the debt, but the party distances him from any involvement in the relationship.

Financial experts doubt whether Zuma has the assets to pay about R16m of legal costs, and may be declared bankrupt in order to get rid of the debt burden.

Meanwhile, the communist SACP has seriously blamed its partner, the ANC, that they have called for Zuma to help make donations for his debt.

Violent actions by groups of striking AMCU members are causing havoc and mayhem at Sibanye-Stillwater

Posted on 12/13/2018 Leave a comment

Sibanye-Stillwater advises that violent actions by groups of striking AMCU members close to its Beatrix operations in the Free State province, have continued.

In the early hours of the morning on 11 December 2018, various altercations between the South African Police Service (SAPS) and large groups of AMCU members resulted in a
number of employees being injured.

Several employees are receiving medical treatment, with one sadly in a critical condition.

These incidents took place outside of demarcated picketing areas and in clear contravention of the interdict obtained by Sibanye-Stillwater from the Labour Court on 22 November 2018, the picketing rules which were established by the CCMA on 29 November 2018 as well as the subsequent order by the Labour Court on 5 December 2018.

The situation at the Beatrix operations in particular, remains tense, with striking workers continuing to intimidate non-striking workers, cause damage Sibanye

Criminals target Johannesburg clinics, facilities without electricity after cable theft – Services at the clinic have been temporarily suspended

Posted on 12/13/2018 Leave a comment

The Westbury clinic in Johannesburg was left without electricity after it was tampered with the facility’s main power cable said the health and social development department on Wednesday.

The clinic’s operating manager said in a statement he saw an unknown man running from the building on Tuesday afternoon after a loud blow noise was heard. He also noted smoke from the same direction as the bang.

“The fire brigade was called for precaution and the patients were evacuated. It was a relief to know that there was no fire and the smoke was of wires that burned when the cables were cut, “the department added.

Due to damage to the main power cable, the generator, which serves as backup, could not be switched on.

Services at the clinic have been temporarily suspended and all vaccines have been sent to a nearby clinic for storage.

City Power is working to restore power to the clinic.

Corruption and bribery seems to be a general tendency in traffic department – Hawks arrest another bunch of corrupt traffic officials this time in the Cape Province

Posted on 12/13/2018 Leave a comment

The Hawks arrested seven traffic officials for issuing drivers licenses for payment. A security guard and six female test officers will appear in court on complaints of fraud and corruption.

The violations at Khayalitsa have taken place since January 2015 and October 2018. It appears that these types of offenses are not eradicated, as licensing officers are shortly arrested for the same complaints.

The volunteer recently reported on the many North Transvaal workers arrested for the same crimes, and there seems to be a general tendency.

Violence will be knocking at your door declares BLF after IEC refuses to register the party for municipal elections in 2019

Posted on 12/13/2018 Leave a comment

The extremely radical and controversial leader of the Black First Land First (BLF) says there will be violence if the Independent Electoral Commission refuses to register its party for the forthcoming municipal elections of 2019.

He made the remark after it was disclosed that the BLF may not participate in the election in terms of the constitution that clearly notes that the conduct of hate speech and declaring of genocide is condemned.

He raised the threat during a media interview with reporters and said if the IEC prevented him from participating in the forthcoming election, violence would break out in South Africa.

Earlier, in a speech, he encouraged his audience to kill white people, which led to severe reactions from different resorts.

Meanwhile, it is expected that President Ramaphosa will act or at least give a warning but it did not happen.

Tekort aan menslike bronne kelder ANC-regime se Gesondheidsplan

Posted on 12/13/2018 Leave a comment

In ‘n verslag van die SA Health Review blyk dit dat die tekort aan menslike hulpbronne die ANC se droom van universele gesondheid dekking kelder. Die verslag toon dat veral die landelike areas ernstige tekorte het aan mediese beamptes.

Syfers toon dat soveel as 106,000 poste reeds in 2010 vakant was vir 14 kliniese gesondheidsprofessies.

Waar en hoe die staat die poste gaan vul is ‘n raaisel en die vermoede bestaan dat gekwalifiseerdes vanuit die buiteland ingevoer sal word om te verseker dat die blankes van Suid-Afrika nie aangestel word nie.

Cheeky Watson pleads ‘not guilty’ to charges of fraud and money laundering

Posted on 12/13/2018 Leave a comment

Former Eastern Province Rugby Union (EPRU) president Cheeky Watson has pleaded ‘not guilty’ to charges of fraud and money laundering.

The trial got underway on Tuesday.

According to the HeraldLIVE website, Watson says he was unaware of any fraudulent activities and that he did not know that anything was wrong when Nadia Gerwel, a former assistant director of accounting at the Nelson Mandela bay metro, transferred R2.9 million into the EPRU bank account.

Another development from Tuesday was that a third charge, failure to report fraud, has been added to Watson’s charge sheet.

Watson, Gerwel, Andrea Wessels and Mandisi Mkasa are all accused of being involved in alleged fraudulent activities that amount to R12 million and centre around funds for Port Elizabeth’s Integrated Public Transport System.

This is totally unbelievable!– Units at all twelve of Eskom’s oldest power stations have ceased functioning – Can it get any worse?

Posted on 12/12/2018 Leave a comment

Units at all twelve of Eskom’s oldest power stations have ceased functioning, which means that more than 17,000 MW’s are loss. It is even more than 15,000 MW in 2015 when load shedding was introduced and lasted for months.

Medupi and Kusile design problems alone will cost R345 billion to restore, and Eskom does not have the ability to pay it.

Eskom has, in the meanwhile, calculated that the problems will only be sorted out by 2021, but experts believe that the power provider’s bad financial position is going to slow down the poor and irregular power supply even more.

Black banks in SA are struggling for survival – VBS Bank is going down the same path as the failed African Bank

Posted on 12/12/2018 Leave a comment

It seems that the black banks are struggling for survival and eventually will sink while many clients and investors will lose money.

Four years after the collapse of the African Bank, the bank could only pay R1,1 billion to his creditors while an amount of more than R9 billion was payable.

According to the latest financial report, it appears that the “bad bank” is not able to properly pay the investors and creditors.

VBS Mutual Bank was recently liquidated due to large-scale irregularities, and resulted in major losses in municipalities that invested money in the bank.
