Cyril says he condemns farm murders just like other murders, but why doesn’t he take action?

Posted on Leave a comment

Cyril Ramaphosa responded to dr. Pieter Groenewald’s question to him in parliament by answering that he condemned farm murders just like the murder of any other South African, but believes that ethnicity must be overlooked because every life has equal value.

He points out that in November 2018, in response to a parliamentary question, he said that violent crime throughout South Africa is a matter of serious concern, regardless of where it is or who it affects. He cited the answer saying he had to condemn all murders in the country, including those on farmers and farm workers, and that the government was committed to doing everything possible to defend every citizen from all forms of violence, regardless of where they live or work.

Network 24 reports that Ramaphosa says the question indicates the distance that the nation still has to go after effective reconciliation and the recognition of the equal value of every life in the country.

ANC uses army to act against gangs, but silent on the slaughter of farmers – 60 farm murders and 217 farm attacks in firs half of 2019

Posted on Leave a comment

With every passing day that the ANC’s wishes to deny that farm attacks and murders are a reality, farmers will continue to be murdered. The murder of Sakkie and Ina van der Berg on their farm in the Boshoff, Dealesville district this past weekend has been proven that farm murders in South Africa are out of control.

According to the Transvaal Agricultural Union (TAU) figures, there were over 60 farm murders and 217 farm attacks only in the first half of 2019.

Neither President, Cyril Ramaphosa, nor the Free State Prime Minister, Sisi Ntombela, wanted to acknowledge in their recent state and provincial opening address that the government’s lack of rural security poses a threat to farmers’ safety and food security.

The ANC focuses on gang violence and deploys the army to defuse it, but ignores farmers’ plea to also secure their security. The ANC prefers to focus on the past and create the perception that farmers are crooks who have stolen l

ANC losing the crime battle in SA? – 52 murders daily and has the highest rape rate with 65 000 reported cases a year

Posted on Leave a comment

The question is increasingly asked whether crime in SA is still under control if the statistics are measured. According to Bheki Cele, the Minister of Police, the South African Police have not yet lost the fight against crime in the country.

Looking at statistics, the picture looks sad. It appears that 52 murders took place daily in the 2016/17 year. Rape figures show that SA has the highest worldwide figure with 65,000 reported cases a year. It is known that many rapes are never reported due to the stigma AND the inability of the police and judicial system to get convictions. South Africa has the highest incidence of child and baby rapes in the world.

Vehicle hijackings are high compared to other countries while transit robberies have become an epidemic.

Gang violence in the Western Cape has claimed the lives of 11 people this past weekend while 45 people were killed in Hanover Park this year. Add to that the farm attacks and murders where in M

‘Just Kill Him, Brother’: A Widow’s Harrowing Story Of South African ‘Farm Attacks’ The Mainstream Media Dismisses

Posted on Leave a comment

Mariandra Heunis and her children are the survivors of a vicious, dead-of-night attack on her family. Her husband — her childrens’ father — is not. He was killed in their home outside Pretoria, South Africa, in what has come to be called a “farm attack — the targeted terrorizing of farmers in a country with a long history of strife over race and land.

Mariandra, her husband, and their three little girls were asleep when the two armed attackers came. She was eight months pregnant with a son Johann Heunis would never meet — Mariandra gave birth just five days after she buried him.

“You hear about these horrific stories and you really hope it never happens to you,” Mariandra told the Daily Caller. “And somehow you never expect it to happen to you. Until it does.”

While the South African government denies the problem, and news sites such as BBC and The Washington Post raced to debunk farm attacks after President Donald Trump twee

Ramaphosa has moral obligation to take a stance on farm murders, his excuse not to air his views on farm murders does not make sense at all – this is insulting, to put it mildly

Posted on Leave a comment

President Cyril Ramaphosa is under a moral obligation to take a strong public stance against farm murders, particularly due to the fact that he denied the existence of the crisis on an international platform earlier. This is the reaction of AfriForum after Khusela Diko, Spokesperson to the president, yesterday told media that the president will specifically not air his views on farm murders, because it is the responsibility of the police.

Ernst Roets, Deputy CEO for AfriForum, says that the president’s excuse does not make sense at all.

“The president has previously aired his views on farm murders. When he did this, he said that there are no farm murders in South Africa. Now that he is confronted with the numbers, his response is that it is not his place to air his views on it and that he would rather remain silent. This is insulting, to put it mildly.”

Roets referred to Ramaphosa’s visit to the USA in September 2018 and his comments on

Dramatic increase in murder rates increases in SA, with an average of 53 murders per day now, and almost 20,000 murders annually

Posted on Leave a comment

Murder rate in South Africa are on the rise, and except for the increase in farm attacks more incidents have generally been reported.

In the past month, the figure has risen sharply, with an average of 53 murders per day.

The dramatic rise is described by crime experts as frightening, and the main reason why the ANC president, Cyril Ramaphosa’s foreign investment plan, will remain a dream.

The violence, strikes and rulings on land occupation reminded investors strongly of Robert Mugabe’s actions.

The attacks on whites on farms by black have also increased, leaving the impression that killings may commence again since the election has come to pass.

According to the opinion of several reputable experts, no investor will risk his money in South Africa, with almost 20,000 murders per year.

National murder rate indicates that about 53 people per day perish, during the month of May alone, 46 attacks and 7 farm murders occurred

Posted on Leave a comment

There are a considerable increase in farm attacks and murders since 2012, and especially after the recent elections, this is a major concern for TAU SA. According to Henry Geldenhuys, Deputy President of TAU SA, this state of affairs, especially considering the accompanying barbaric torture of victims, is frightening.

“The national murder rate of about 53 people a day is totally unacceptable to us and our members. In May alone, there were 46 attacks and 7 farm murders. June 2019 barely started and 5 attacks and 1 farm murder already took place; plots, cities and towns have already been excluded, ”SAID Geldenhuys.

The open question remains, when will concrete work be done at Government level, the SAPS and the NPA to curb the unexplained war on farmers? Political claims are made daily that farmers have stolen the land on which all residents of South Africa are being fed on. At this stage, the President as well as the entire cabinet, and especiall
