By Shitshembiso Mabasa Listening to Bishop Mafu on Home with Mapaseka last week made me realize that there is a disconnect when it comes to issues faced by men. We are expected to sort ourselves out in isolation, and we must do it overnight. I understand why we are on our own; we have a very horrific track record. However, we need to work together in order effect change that […]
By Unathi Sonwabile Henama The Public Protector has ruled against the proposed nude beach at the Ray Nkonyeni Municipality. Newspaper reports note that the Public Protector identified that the municipality had breached its own anti-nudity policies. In 2015, the KZN Naturalist Association made a formal application for a beach between Port Shepstone and Port Edward to be declared a nudist friend beach, and it forms part of Mpenjani Beach, part of […]
Unathi Sonwabile Henama The 20th edition of MACUFE was successfully hosted, with the highlight being the Main Jazz Festival. The MACUFE Cup was a success with a stadium full to the rafters. As expected, the Glamour Boys continued their domination of the MACUFE Cup, winning another trophy to add to their cabinet. MACUFE has really come of age when one considers that the fact that it started in 1997 under […]
By Shitshembiso Mabasa Words are powerful, we all know this and, as Africans, we have used spoken word to code, document and pass on wisdom and history across generations. Each era adds new lines to a continuous story; however, we have to create from a position of power in order to have a legacy worth continuing and preserving. Poetry is important, however, in South Africa, it’s just like teaching; there […]
By Unathi Sonwabile Henama The catch 22 that South Africa was faced with was averted when the government approved the transfer of funds from the National Revenue Fund (NRF). The funds would alleviate a headache for the government, which has been looking for around R10 billion for Sout African Airways (SAA). The search involved engaging the Public Investment Corporation (PIC). Due to mounting public pressure, the PIC made it very […]
By Unathi Sonwabile Henama Monday, 25 September 2017, will be D-Day as bids presentations shall be made for the 2023 Rugby World Cup. I was disappointed to learn that South Africa is bidding for the games, as South Africa does not need the Rugby World Cup. I will enthusiastically welcome the news that South Africa has failed in its bid to host the 2023 Rugby World Cup, just like the disappointment […]

By Unathi Sonwabile Henama The news that the state was planning to sell its stake in Telkom to bail out South African Airways came as a shock to me. Telkom has been a stellar performer and is one of the most exemplary State Owned Enterprises, an oasis in the tragedy of mismanagement and poor governance that characterise the majority of SOEs. The Ministry of Finance says the plan to sell off […]
By Unathi Sonwabile Henama On the 17 July 2017, an Uber partner driver in Pretoria died after his car was set alight five weeks ago outside Loftus Versveld. The driver suffered severe burn wounds. Metered taxi drivers are the suspects because of the ongoing turf war between Uber and themselves. Uber has asked for a meeting with the Minister of Police to discuss the challenges faced by the Uber partner […]
