Even Donald Trump would have been impressed with the gall shown by ANC supporters outside Nkandla during yesterday’s inspection. Clutching at straws, anyone?
The photos from yesterday’s Nkandla inspection are truly shocking. Just kidding, there are sadly no surprises here as the country’s media show us what we’ve been paying for
If you’re a fan of watching government-approved news and entertainment on your telly looks like you’re in luck. A ‘propaganda plan’ is set to be implemented and here’s what’s in store.
Don’t run and tell our president (I don’t think we could foot the bill for the improvements) but his Nkandla fire prevention tool isn’t even close to the top of the pile. Here are some real gems

It looks like you can add graffiti to the long list of things our politicians can’t seem to agree on after conflicting reports on a spray-painted message outside Parliament.
There are many gut-wrenching stories coming out of the senseless Marikana massacre – this man’s story is something of an amalgamation of what many strikers went through.
Last night saw Jacob Zuma finally release the long-awaited findings of the Marikana Commission report. Would you believe me if I said people were’t all that impressed?
Would you believe me if I told you that Jacob Zuma told a fib five years ago? Hear me out guys, it looks like Mmusi has found that zinger and called JZ out on it.
We know that our parliament has turned into a circus of late but today is another one of those ‘has to be seen to be believed’ kind of scenarios. New record guys, well done.
We know that Jacob Zuma behaves like a rap mogul at the top of his game from time to time but you’ve never heard him like this. Someone has played out of their boots.
The words ‘Zuma’ and ‘shocking’ have long been associated but this writer thinks their may be some method to JZ’s madness. He might actually have a point as well.
It doesn’t matter whether you think football is nothing more than a silly game, you see, there is something larger here that should anger each and every South African.
Remember how hard you worked, putting in all those extra hours long after everyone had gone home to get your pay rise? It is somewhat easier for others.
Trevor Noah is back on our shores and couldn’t resist the chance to get a few digs in at FIFA and Sepp Blatter. Over to you.
Sometimes there isn’t much you can do but have a laugh at the shambles that is the South African government. May as well start with the firepool fiasco then.
We could all use a laugh after yesterday’s Nkandla news, and it being a Friday and all we thought we’d treat you to some poetic brilliance.
Looks like there will be some backslapping tonight after the Police Minister declared Zuma will not have to pay back a single cent for Nkandla. Oh, and about that fire pool.
The ANC has absolutely nailed this new bill on the head and unless some seriously free contraception is handed out, we’re going to see a lot of kids ruining their lives.
The South African political landscape has really descended into a free-for-all, although the latest attacks on Jacob Zuma are taking things to the next level.
We’re getting quite used to hearing Jacob Zuma enjoy a chuckle at our expense in parliament, but should he really be cracking jokes about Nkandla?
The gloves are well and truly off after EFF spokesperson Mbuyiseni Ndlozi went to town on the ruling party in a sustained verbal attack. Ding ding ding.
We know that Mmusi isn’t afraid to stand up to Jacob Zuma, given his eloquent attack in the aftermath of the State of the Nation fiasco, but he may yet have a few more tricks up his sleeve.
Julius Malema used his opportunity to address white farmers in the Western Cape to impart some advice about their need to chillax. It went down better than you might think.
The finger-pointing regarding the xenophobic attacks extended into parliament when Julius took his opportunity to lay into JZ and his family.
Ranjeni Munusamy from the Daily Maverick gives us a thoroughly thought-provoking piece on xenophobia and the real state of our nation.
He has been in great demand following the success of the ‘Rhodes Must Fall’ campaign, but this is not the first time Chumani Maxwele has gained political attention.
Rhodes is gone, and not without a fair share of drama attached. What about the rest of the statues? Who do we listen to about the delicate subject?
Mugabe is stirring the pot a little bit with what he has to say about Cecil John Rhodes being buried in Zimbabwe. What will his comrades say, I wonder?
There were plenty of pictures of the Jacob Zuma statue atop Lion’s Head doing the rounds this weekend but here’s a few you wouldn’t have seen.
