Nelson Mandela Bay’s worsening infrastructure challenges have come under renewed scrutiny after National Treasury temporarily withheld the metro’s July equitable share allocation, raising fresh concerns among business leaders about the city’s ability to foster investment and economic growth.


The metro is one of around 70 municipalities whose July 2026 equitable share transfers have been withheld by National Treasury due to persistent non-compliance with the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA).

He already pleaded guilty. Then he withdraws after getting 12 years instead of 8. Because he thinks he'll be able to convince the court that he's not guilty after already pleading guilty. Htf did this muppet score so much loot...

And yet, our current government has laws that control the racial makeup of teams in sport in South Africa! Only racists will look at it and say: "nope, not racism"!

All the world sporting bodies realise that Apartheid deliberately disadvantaged people and that has to be corrected, hence SA is freely competing in global sports today, unlike during the apartheid times, not everyone is in denial like you.

It honestly doesn't matter what you call it, what matters is that the world realise that the wrongs of apartheid and colonialism must be corrected and the world accepts that the way South Africa is doing the correcting is just and fair, hence we are allowed to compete in global sports.
