Posted on Leave a comment

Inside Job? Police in KwaZulu-Natal have launched a manhunt for 20 awaiting trial prisoners still at large, who escaped from a transfer truck this morning in Pietermaritzburg. Five armed suspects with AK47’s stopped and blocked the vehicle. Police say the transport vehicle, which was being escorted by only two SAPS officers, was carrying 45 inmates who escaped, but 25 inmates are now back in custody.

Another stupid plan on the incompetent ANC’s table – Regime now wants to expand and manage shipping, while all the SOE’s are total failures

Posted on Leave a comment

The ANC government’s Minister of Transport, Fikile Mbalula, has just announced that his Department is looking into the possibility of expanding shipping and the ships will be managed by their incompetent department.

Informed sources say the announcement comes simply as a distraction after it became known that Prasa is also bankrupt like almost every other state entity in this country.

Mbalula’s announcement that a network of ships can be built to transport cargo will not come off the ground as long as every other entity, and the country is in an economic turmoil where debt burdens are higher than what is allowed in the business world.

With SAA facing liquidation, and South Africa approaching junk status, with a possible recession on everyone’s lips, it is a waste of money and time to look at shipping as an option, informed sources.

State-owned bus company seeks R350 million bailout

Posted on Leave a comment

The state-owned bus company Northwest Transport Investments, which transports more than a million people a day, is seeking a bailout of R350 million.

The transportation of hundreds of thousands of commuters mainly in the North West and Gauteng provinces and more than 1,600 jobs are at risk due to the financial distress of parastatal Northwest Transport Investments (NTI).

The 46-year-old company – which owns Northwest Star, the Star Line, and the Atteridgeville Bus Service – has applied to the North West government (its sole shareholder) for a bailout of more than R350 million, NTI chairman, Mojalefa Nale, confirmed to Business Insider SA. The company has outstanding debts of about equal to that amount.

In August, a high court judge placed the company into provisional liquidation, after an application from Driveshaft Baleka, which is a Pretoria-based company that rebuilds and manufacturers propeller shafts.

It was owed R890,000 b

VIDEO: The MultiCulti Melting Pot Boils Over as Civil War Erupts in South Africa, Fueled by Open Borders – Globalism Kills…

Posted on Leave a comment

WARNING – GRAPHIC CONTENT! The globalist melting pot of multiculturalism is boiling over in South Africa after having simmered for decades as anti mass immigration sentiment reaches boiling point in SA townships…

South Africa, the flagship nation of the Liberal World Order’s globalism project, has finally proven that multiculturalism does not work and never will. To make matters worse, it seems as if Africa’s eternal civil war, which has been fueled by globalism for decades has finally arrived in the southernmost tip of the Dark Continent.

When it comes to national or tribal rivalry, Africa does not mess around – life has no value…

Black South Africans are shooting at foreign trucks on the roads. Foreign trucks are stoned, pulled over, set alight or bribed…

Foreign truck drivers are inflaming the situation with equally aggressive and threatening rhetoric…

Posted on Leave a comment

Taxpayers have forked out just under R1m for former president Jacob Zuma, his spouses and support staff’s transport and phone bills in the first nine months of his departure from office.

President Cyril Ramaphosa revealed in a response to a parliamentary question published on Thursday that the state paid R150,668.38 for Zuma’s flights between February 14, the day he left office, and November 30.

A further R837,444.41 was spent on flying expenses, as well as cellphone, accommodation and car rental expenses for Zuma, his spouses and two support staff members during the period.

Ramaphosa was responding to a written question by DA chief whip John Steenhuisen who wanted to know about the costs incurred by the state on Zuma’s trips and all related expenses for the former president.

Steenhuisen also wanted information about the purpose of each trip undertaken, to which Ramaphosa said: “Former president Zuma no longer hold
