“Give us jobs.” I hear it everywhere I go. Instead of making empty promises to people, I tell the truth about how jobs are created. Jobs aren’t handed out by politicians. They’re created when you have a government that attracts investment and builds infrastructure that works. #BelieveInJoburg #Zille4Mayor

News24 Group donated R8 million to the ANC! News24 will not tell you this in the hit piece they are planning against @afriforum. I place on record that @News24 refused to answer AfriForum’s questions regarding its parent company’s donations of R8 million to the ANC between 2021 and 2025. These questions were aimed at determining whether News24 considers it justifiable for its parent company to fund the ANC while numerous individuals in the ANC leadership have been implicated in corruption. This question was relevant to AfriForum’s ability to respond effectively to News24’s enquiries, as reference is made to donations by one of the parent company’s fellow donors to the ANC, namely Thebe Stockbroking.

"Naspers owns Media24, which includes @News24 among its many titles. News24, one of South Africa’s most influential news platforms, is expected to provide impartial coverage of all political entities, including the ANC. However, how can we trust the objectivity of a media outlet when its parent company is financially supporting one of the major political players? This isn’t just a potential conflict of interest; it’s a direct challenge to the integrity of the media as a neutral entity." capeargus.co.za/news/politic…

R13.2 billion. R13.2 billion. That is the sum total write-off by the City of Joburg, led by the corrupt ANC coalition. "R13.2 billion in unauthorised, irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure that the City of Johannesburg wrote off or regularised during the 2024/25 financial year." This is the money meant to fix your potholes, the antiquated water pipes, the unstable electricity supply, the street lights. All gone. Disappeared into thin air or into back pockets. All this while the COJ jacks up rates to exorbitant levels. The ANC leadership, along with their corrupt and incompetent coalition partners, do not care about the residents. They are more worried about getting the money into their own back pockets. Property rates rise by 3.6 percent which is the lowest increase with the first 300000 rand of residential property value exempt. Electricity goes up by an average of 8.63 percent for households driven by Eskom bulk costs. Water increases by 12.5 percent driven by Rand Water. Sanitation or sewer rises by 11 percent. Refuse removal increases by 6.2 percent. These hikes come on top of the City's chronic service failures, massive write-offs, and huge internal losses (water around 44 percent, electricity around 27 percent). Residents get hammered with higher rates while potholes, water pipes, electricity, and street lights continue to collapse. The ANC coalition's idea of financial recovery seems to be squeezing residents harder instead of fixing the rot and stopping the theft. Vote Greater ANC at your own peril! #SAElection2026 Source: polity.org.za/article/parly-…

The reality is that Tshwane will be governed by either a DA-led government or an ANC-led government. If you want change, vote for the only party big enough to take on the ANC. Help us take back our city and let’s get Tshwane working again🗳️ Register at check.da.org.za #takebackyourcity #backbrink

The City Council was very quick to condemn the Metro Centre overnight. A building that had nothing wrong with it. Meanwhile, the Alex Hostel is crumbling. Why? It’s simple. There’s nothing much to loot at the Alex Hostel where vulnerable women and children live. But the Metro Centre condemnation unlocks tenders, contracts and relocations. If they can’t benefit from it financially, they neglect it. That’s the ANC/EFF/PA coalition of corruption. #BelieveInJoburg #Zille4Mayor
