ActionSA extends its deepest condolences to the families of all councillors and candidates who tragically lost their lives over the voter registration weekend.

ActionSA is appalled by the decision of the Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure, Dean Macpherson, to institute legal proceedings against Parliament after being found guilty of breaching the Code of Ethical Conduct over racist and classist remarks.

ActionSA has uncovered a shocking housing crisis in Ekurhuleni, where millions of rands have been spent while hundreds of deserving residents remain without homes.

ActionSA has received a distressing complaint from workers employed by contractors appointed by Johannesburg Water, who allege that they have not been paid for weeks due to ongoing payment failures involving the City of Johannesburg, Johannesburg Water, and contracted service providers.

ActionSA is deeply disappointed, but not surprised by the decision of the Speaker of the National Assembly not to oppose the President’s attempt to evade accountability.

On Friday, during my interview with Bongani Bingwa on 702, I was once again confronted with a reality that deeply troubles me: 32 years into democracy, many South Africans are being labelled xenophobic, intolerant, and even criminal simply because they are demanding that the laws of this country be enforced.

As South Africans head to voting stations across the country on 20 and 21 June for the official voter registration weekend ahead of the 4 November 2026 Local Government Elections, ActionSA calls on every eligible citizen, particularly young people, to seize this opportunity and register to vote.

ActionSA Mpumalanga strongly condemns the alleged intimidation of ActionSA Nkangala Regional Secretary, Sibonezo “Sotobe” Nkolanyane, following his participation in a March and March protest in Delmas on 12 June 2026.

Every June, South Africans rightly pause to honour the courage and sacrifice of the young people of 1976. Their struggle was about more than education. It was about dignity, opportunity and the right to build a better future

People came to Johannesburg to build businesses, create jobs, and pursue better lives. It was the city that moved South Africa forward.

Dear Young People of North West, on the eve of Youth Day, I find myself reflecting not only on the bravery of the young people of 1976, but also on the conversations I have had with young people across our province in recent weeks.
