Nigeria has officially submitted a bid to host Formula 1 Grand Prix in Abuja. This would make Nigeria 🇳🇬 the first African country to host such an event in over three decades.
Justice Minister @mmkubayi made some big announcements today:
- the 20% increase in judges is now with National Treasury.
- New High Courts in Rustenburg, Welkom, Upington, George etc.
- New policy on Acting Judges.
- High Court seat won’t move from Makhanda to Bhisho for now.
Listening to @AlgoaFM radio personalities fight for their lives trying to say ‘Nxuba’ during the weather updates is hilarious. That ‘Nxu’ click puts them in a complete chokehold every single time. It sounds like a new town every day! 😭
What exactly is breaking news about this correspondence? Because a law enforcement official seems to have been communicating information with a public representative.
Is the suggestion that whistleblowers are corrupt when they whistle blow to Julius Malema?
When Lt General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi goes on about how he communicated his concerns before his press briefing, to the Portfolio Committee Chair of Police, to the National Commissioner and to the President of the Republic, were his communications suspicious?
If sharing of information of conduct within public institutions with public representatives in order to aid accountability is a crime, then the Parliament of South Africa is at risk of collapse.
I would dare the Madlanga Commission to consider taking the phones of all MP’s to test this claim. Khan is not the first nor the last official of a public institution to purportedly share information with an MP.
MP’s who are pretending to be outraged should be careful, because the basis of their effectiveness in Parliament relies heavily on this type of information sharing.
I would particularly caution the Chair of SCOPA, who seemingly could not even sleep due to excitement. His entire portfolio relies on whistleblowers and information sharing from people in public institutions, his disdain for one based on a narrative is surprising.
Julius Malema didnt comply with the Deputy Judge President's directive. The court struck his application from the roll. He is ordered to pay my costs on scale B. This is the matter about McG's podcast. @OnsBaizaNie Glory be to God
WhatsApp chats from Crime Intelligence’s Maj-Gen Feroz Khan allegedly show that he shared the name and address of the complainant in a case opened at Sandton Police Station with Mohamed Sayed on behalf of Julius Malema.
The complainant has been identified as the curator of #VBS Mutual Bank.

I didn’t expect the Ghana jersey to be ranked #1, but The New York Times says so! I really like the creativity of the spider web radiating from the star, though.
From @TheAthletic: The 2026 World Cup will be many things: searing elite-level competition, a monument to hypercapitalism and, for better or worse, a fashion show.

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani alongside State and FIFA officials announced the largest fan zone at Central Park for the FIFA World Cup Final on July 19th- accommodating 50-thousand ticketed fans for free.
He also gave out this shout out to South Africa's hosting of the World Cup in 2010 ... and Durban in particular....

Actually, the @MbalulaFikile hates magazine covers and turned down most that request(s)ed.
The only magazine over he did was Destiny Magazine after I pleaded and almost pushed that he does it
This one is clearly AI and it’s made up
Side note: he wanted to cancel this cover shoot on the actual day of shooting and only did the cover because the Destiny Team had booked to Cape Town specifically for it from Johannesburg and it would have been a waste for them to turn back.
askies neh, my sweet angel baby pie @Julius_S_Malema
