“I promised the artists that when black majority rule came to #SouthAfrica I would return my collection to a public gallery,” Australian diplomat Di Johnstone says. She did so in 2003. By @carienduplessis theafricareport.com/345984/south-a…
Researching this story was a trip down memory lane and an interesting history lesson.

The R1.74 for the SMS was deducted from my airtime.
Made history today when I became the 1st @Vodacom111 customer to be charged for an SMS I didn't send and have no record of. They also can't tell me the no I sent the SMS to because it's confidential, and because this is a first, there's no way they can refund the airtime 🤣🙄🤯
"...there are many who share our commitment to the just cause of the people in #Palestine. I’m sure those who support that cause cannot vote for a party who doesn’t," Pandor tells The Africa Report. Report by @carienduplessis theafricareport.com/344265/south-a…

#SouthAfrica has scrapped e-tolls in Gauteng – a decade after the ANC-led provincial government introduced the contested system. ANC politicians gathered on the N1 highway near Pretoria to flip a switch on the project it put in place. By @carienduplessis theafricareport.com/344047/south-a…
What keeps bugging me is whether the politicians are doing these festivities voluntarily or whether there is something about the elections polling that says, if you do it this way, you'll get more votes, and at least they're doing it for some kind of reward.

Love how the switching off of e-tolls is portrayed as a victory when politicians from the same political party that is now claiming this victory, for more than 10 years did their best to coax, cajole & threaten the public into accepting the tolls - and they didn't #SAelections24

In an interesting turn of events former president Jacob Zuma's lawyers have convinced an electoral court to overturn a decision by the IEC that his criminal record should prohibit him from becoming an MP. A little bit more about his network in this article in @TheAfricaReport

#Senegal: PM Sonko praised the new government he announced as a “breakaway” one offering “a systemic transformation.” But only 4/25 ministers, and 5 junior ministers, are women, sparking anger from women’s rights groups and feminists. By @Sheriffb theafricareport.com/343490/senegal…

Thirty years later, children of Mandela have come of age. Just over half of South Africa’s 60 million people were born after 1994 and never lived under apartheid that segregated people and kept a minority white population in power, writes @carienduplessis theafricareport.com/342856/who-can…
It has been three decades since the historic free elections ushered in an era of peace and the promise of prosperity. Yet, inequality is greater than in 1994 and 40% of the population are jobless. How will the ANC fare on May 29? asks @carienduplessis theafricareport.com/342856/who-can…
#South Africa: As campaign heats up for 29 May election, blanket campaigns targeting “born free” generation (those who were born after the fall of the apartheid regime in 1994) might not be the most effective campaign approach. Report by @carienduplessis👇 shorturl.at/eGOS1
