Summary:
I look at South Africa’s worsening unemployment crisis, with the official rate reaching 33.6% and the expanded rate hitting 43.8%—around 13.1 million people. Manufacturing and government suffered major job losses, although agriculture remained comparatively resilient.
I also break down the latest eThekwini poll, where MK still leads despite falling sharply from 48% to 33%, while the IFP has climbed to 16%. Finally, I discuss Naledi Pandor’s criticism of Akademia’s privately funded Afrikaans campus, the scale of the development and the backlash her comments triggered.
