DUMA GQUBULE | Ramaphosa’s GBV pledges remain unfulfilled (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Once again, the government has failed South African women at all levels. On August 24 2019 the country was shocked by the rape and murder of University of Cape Town student Uyinene Mrwetyana. On September 18, after weeks of national outrage, President Cyril Ramaphosa convened a performative joint sitting of the National Assembly and National Council of Provinces on gender-based violence and femicide (GBVF). He said cabinet had resolved to direct R1.1bn in additional funding “during this financia
DUMA GQUBULE | Journalists must demand evidence in the wake of fake statistics ruling (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A landmark ruling by the Broadcasting Complaints Commission of South Africa (BCCSA) against the SABC will hopefully mute Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, the toxic leader of the xenophobic group March and March, and prevent the media from giving her a platform to make unsubstantiated claims without challenging them. The ruling is a game-changer for media ethics in an environment of fake news where people and organisations often make unsubstantiated claims about issues such as a white genocide and BEE witho
DUMA GQUBULE | South Africa’s vanishing jobs (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The time has come to question the economic literacy and sanity of South Africa’s political and business elites and call them out for not caring about the jobs crisis. During Women’s Month we learnt that according to Statistics South Africa’s latest labour force survey, the expanded (LU3) unemployment rate for African women hit 53.1% during the second quarter. The expanded unemployment rate for youth (aged 15-24) was 72.4%, and 48% for black Africans, 56% in the North West and 54% in the Eastern
DUMA GQUBULE | PIC scandals overshadow R3.7-trillion growth potential (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The seemingly never-ending soap opera that is the Public Investment Corporation is a national disgrace deflecting attention from debate over the role the R3.7-trillion asset manager could be playing in national economic development and transformation. It is incredible that the previous board was tripped up by a suspicious R411m payment — just 0.01% of the PIC’s assets — to Acapulco for its stake in Lanseria Airport. You do not have to be a chartered financial analyst to know that the payment was
DUMA GQUBULE | SA needs a municipal Marshall Plan to halt local government collapse (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nothing less than a Marshall Plan for local government will reverse the decay that has resulted in many cities and towns countrywide becoming filthy, dangerous slums. Last week, at a packed North West University Business School debate on the dismal state of local government — with political analysts Prince Mashele and Qaanitah Hunter and moderated by biker professor Piet Croucamp — I said local government has become a national macroeconomic policy issue. Most political parties are offering nothi
