ANC Takes R9 Billion From PRASA to Pay for e-Tolls! With No Brakes, Cellphones, Radios, Guards, SAPS or Money, The PRASA Train Has Derailed & Crashed Yet ANC Vultures Continue To Plunder it!

Posted on Leave a comment

While Vodacom has cancelled its contract with PRASA for the provision of cellphones, which train drivers used to communicate with control rooms, it has also been revealed that ANC took R9 Billion from PRASA to pay for SANRAL e-tolls, according to Steve Harris from UNTU, which is a union within Prasa. Train drivers use these cellphones to get the verbal go-ahead to use routes to prevent accidents, because they can’t use the radio base system because that is not working either!

Drivers now have to use their own cellphones, which is against PRASA rules (and probably against their insurance too). Harris says that the lives of train drivers are in danger when they can’t get authority to use routes and have to wait at crossings, because commuters who are angry about late trains have attacked train drivers in the past. He says criminals also prey on waiting commuters whilst they wait for late trains. Violence is #TheAfricanWay and the solution to everyth

The City of Pretoria literally experienced a black Friday after two cash trucks were robbed

Posted on Leave a comment

In Pretoria’s western area, at the Kit Kat Plaza, a cash van was robbed and at least one security officer was wounded in the incident.

The armed robbers did not hesitate to pull the trigger and took off with an unknown amount.

A police spokesman says one suspect fled in an ambulance,

On the same day, a second money van was pulled down by three armed villains about 50 kilometers north of Pretoria, on the N1 near Hammanskraal.

The wagon was forced by another vehicle to stop by driving into it, after which the gunmen acted.

The incidents were later described by a reader as still being a Black Friday event, because a lot of money was carried away by a small number of armed thieves.

Several people expressed the opinion that the two robberies were probably carried out by the same team of thieves, and that they had inside information.

Unclaimed pensions amount to R51 billion – wonder if the money hungry ANC regime will lay a claim on it?

Posted on Leave a comment

Workers are often unaware that they have certain pension benefits that must be paid to them upon leaving work.

As a result, unclaimed amounts are already worth billions of Rand, which is estimated to be as much as R4 billion accumulated in two unions.

It seems that a total of more than R40 billion has been raised over the past two to three decades, and no one is helping service-leavers to say they should apply for their pension benefits.

The information was disclosed after an independent entity conducted research and found that no one informed workers about their rights in this regard.

If certain pensions are taken into account outside the Pension Funds Act, then the total accumulated amount is R51 billion that has not been claimed.

Pay back the money Zuma! – Nkandla in VBS liquidators’ vision – cough up R7m or lose Nkandla

Posted on Leave a comment

The ANC’s Jacob Zuma is in a big financial crisis with his multi-million Rand loan he received from bankrupt VBS Mutual Bank and now has to pay back the money.

Along with that, there are the million Rand court costs to be paid while more court cases are being filed in an effort to be cleared of the debt.

The amount of more than R7 million borrowed from VBS can be claimed any day, and then Nkandla can be compromised.

Although the Nkandla complex was but controversially erected with the largest share of the cost financed from the state coffers, it is doubted how much the real value of the property is being erected in a strange rural area.

Meanwhile, it has been reported that Zuma is also still a full year in arrears with the payment of his loan.

According to News24, VBS Mutual Bank’s liquidator, Anoosh Rooplal, has filed an application with the Pietermaritzburg High Court for an order that will force Zuma to pay, or an or

Thank you SA for voting ANC – SA is broke thanks to the thieving done by ANC cadres in government

Posted on Leave a comment

It’s official: the South African state is bankrupt. President Cyril Ramaphosa confirmed it three weeks ago when he responded to questions in parliament.

Ramaphosa’s exact words were: “Our resources are now depleted.”

In simple terms, this means the government has run out of money.

In a normal country, such a statement by the head of state would have, at best, made national headlines. That it went unnoticed reveals a great deal about our journalists’ obsession with the fluff that constitutes the vacuity of our daily politics.

If you want to understand what it means for a state to run out of money, look at South African Express. It has grounded its planes. Last week, it told MPs it is struggling to pay salaries.

SA Express is not unique. Employees at Denel are not sure for how long their salaries will be paid. Eskom pays salaries from debt. It needs about R70bn for operations and debts. But its revenue i

Public Protector received money from Guptas, but denied that she was corrupt

Posted on Leave a comment

The Public Protector has denied allegations that she is corrupt and has received money from the Guptas in the past.

Busisiwe Mkhwebane is accused of receiving about R5,000 from the Guptas two years before her appointment as OB.

It is not mentioned whether she received the amount monthly, but it is suspected that she may have received it more than once.

However, she said they should take all her bank statements from the FNB and prove that she got money from the Guptas.

A non-profit foreign organization made the allegations, but besides it further adversely affects her chances of being in the post, it has international consequences for South Africa.

12,432 SASSA beneficiaries defrauded on social grants toting up to R21 million

Posted on Leave a comment

Social Development Minister Lindiwe Zulu announced in a parliamentary reply on Tuesday that about 20,787 fraud cases were registered at the Post Office by June 28 this year. Furthermore, it has also been revealed that 12 432 pensioners as well as other beneficiaries have been deceived in the past year from their social grants, collectively more than R21 million.

Liezl van der Merwe, IFP MP, wanted to know from Zulu how many fraudulent pensioners and other beneficiaries had reported to the South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) over the past 12 months, whether it was resolved and whether the stolen money was recovered . To which Zulu replied that criminal investigations are currently pending and that the money was never recovered.

Van der Merwe also wanted to know what Sassa is doing to stop corruption and fraudulent transactions with Sassa cards. Zulu replied that the beneficiaries report fraud with their social grants at their nearest Sassa offi

More than for R376 million that has been spent so far on the Evaton Renewal Project cannot be accounted for – We know where it is! Probably stolen by ANC-cadres

Posted on Leave a comment

EVATON – The Democratic Alliance says the Gauteng Human Settlements and COGTA MEC, Lebogang Maile, has failed to account for R376 million that has been spent so far on the Evaton Renewal Project

(ERP) in the Emfuleni Local Municipality. In a reply to questions in the Gauteng Provincial Legislature from DA Emfuleni Constituency Head, MPL Kingsol Chabalala, MEC Maile revealed that R332 117 511.77 has been spent on this project so far.

However, Chabalala said these figures are contradictory to the figures contained in the report published by the Auditor General in 2016 and his predecessor’s written replies in the Gauteng Provincial Legislature. He said the DA has written to MEC Maile requesting him to investigate the failed ERP, but they have not yet received any feedback. Chabalala said Evaton residents have the right to know what happened to their money.

Water and Sanitation Ministry run under a cloud of large-scale financial mismanagement by ANC cadres who knowingly robbed the department of much needed funds

Posted on Leave a comment

Lindiwe Sisulu, the new Minister of Water and Sanitation, acknowledged during her budget debate in parliament that her department is living under a cloud and that “major financial mismanagement” has occurred by top officials.

She apparently undertook to reverse the situation as soon as possible. She can’t understand that so much money has been lost, and will try to stop the loopholes.

Observers wonder if action will be taken against those who have deliberately stole at the department, or will the eventually be redeployed in other sectors like normal ANC practice.

Bloodhounds are sucking SA motorists dry so that the ANC can benefit – total fuel tax comes to R5.73 now while little of the levy is intended for the right purpose due to corruption and mismanagement

Posted on Leave a comment

A newly released report shows that South Africa’s motorists are being “sucked dry” with heavy levies while little of its intended for the right purpose.

Ten years ago, the total tax on fuel was R1.77 and now it has become R5.73 per liter.

Financial experts point out that the government is abusing the fuel levy to maintain their extravagant stance, whatever the new president of the country is trying to say.

Billions of rand are progressing this way every year, but the public says they see nothing that the government is doing with the money, except to pay excessively high salaries to workers who are not always up to the post occupied.

This is seen as one of the main reasons why the economic situation of taxpayers, businessmen and the state is getting worse.

ANC regime is going to throw more money funded by taxpayers into the bottomless pit of Eskom, amounts are unknown

Posted on Leave a comment

Amidst many promises and assurances before the general election, the lies have triumphed again, as Eskom seems to be getting more money from the government.

Stubborn reports indicate that an Eskom delegation has visited the ANC’s president, Cyril Ramaphosa, and some of his cabinet members, and talks have been held in Genadendal.

Unconfirmed reports state that Ramaphosa has over-emphasized the importance of Eskom for the umpteenth time, as if alternative solutions do not exist.

Eskom has already splurged billions of rand, a large part of which “has landed in the sewer ditch”, and with the unprecedented and unfair tariff increases approved, it remains inexplicable to taxpayers why the government is again willing to put money into Eskom’s bottomless pit.

Although amounts are not mentioned, the ANC precedent confirmed that further assistance to the power provider was in principle approved.
