When Jacob Zuma said he did not want to testify before the Zondo Commission because he believed there would be bias, he was criticised. He said he was willing to appear before a commission, but wanted to give his testimony before a different judge. The response from some was: “Zuma is just delaying the process.” Now, when @CyrilRamaphosa says he does not want to testify before Evidence Leader Advocate Thandazani Madonsela SC because he believes the process may not be fair, some people defend him by saying he is exercising his rights. The question is simple: should the same principles of fairness and due process not apply to everyone, regardless of political affiliation? Accountability must be consistent. If one person’s concerns are dismissed as “delay tactics,” while another person’s concerns are accepted as a legitimate exercise of rights, then we must ask ourselves whether we are applying the same standard to everyone. Are we being fair, or are we judging situations based on who is involved? @GovernmentZA @ParliamentofRSA @PresidencyZA @JGZ_Foundation @MkhontoweSizwex @PublicProtector @DZumaSambudla @MagaselaMzobe

THE 20-YEAR LOCK-IN: HOW THE DA SOLD CAPE TOWN'S POWER TO AN AMERICAN LLC FOR R5.1 BILLION Have you ever heard of a company called Make A Difference Ventures LLC? No? Neither has Cape Town. Yet this American-registered company has just been handed a 20-year electricity contract by the City of Cape Town to the tune of R5.1 BILLION. 20 years. Locked. No exit. WHO ARE THEY? WHO OWNS THEM? The DA's only excuse is "it's cheaper than Eskom." 40MW solar in Philippi, 19-21% saving, CPI-linked not Eskom-linked. They say it will save R1.7 billion. That's the sales pitch. Here is the truth: 1. An American LLC owning Cape Town's power.* Not a local cooperative. Not a Cape Flats community project. An LLC - a US structure built to hide beneficial owners. Who are the real shareholders? Who funded them? What are their political connections? The DA-run City has refused to show us the faces behind the LLC. 2. Awarded on deviation.This was not a clean, competitive, transparent tender. Council records show it was approved on deviation in February 2025. Deviation means they bypassed normal supply chain rules. For R5.1 billion. 3. Treasury flagged it.National Treasury itself had to write to the City asking about compliance failures. For a 20-year contract, the public participation process produced ONE comment from the public. One. For R5.1 billion of your electricity money. That is not consultation. That is capture. 4. A 20-year mortgage on your prepaid. The City says it will be funded from the bulk electricity account. That's your money every time you buy electricity. They are gambling that this company will exist, perform, and stay cheaper for two decades until 2046. If it fails, if it under-delivers, if it sells its shares offshore, Cape Town cannot walk away. You are the collateral. THE DA'S HYPOCRISY The DA built its brand attacking ANC long-term Eskom deals as corrupt and reckless. Now it signs the exact same model, just in blue. Foreign company. Massive long-term lock-in. Deviation. Treasury query. Zero transparency. If this was in Johannesburg under the ANC, Geordin Hill-Lewis would be marching to the Hawks with a dossier. In Cape Town, it's called "innovation." Don't be fooled. "Cheaper than Eskom" is not a business plan, it's a slogan. Eskom was also cheap in 1990. Real energy independence is local, transparent, and publicly owned. This is not independence. This is outsourcing sovereignty to an LLC no one knows, for 20 years, with your money. Cape Town must demand: Publish the full contract. Publish the owners. Publish the Treasury letter. Do some digging. Then we share notes.

A man called in to Power FM and said his daughter has a hearing impairment and uses hearing aids. Kids from her street who know about her condition poured water on her and got her hearing aids damaged. Mind you, she’s in matric and will have to wait months to get new ones.
