- Matjhabeng Executive Mayor, Thanduxolo Khalipha is yet again under fire.
This time, as the ANC Regional Executive Committee in Lejweluputswa, Free State announces that it has asked the national leadership to re-configure the Troika, referring to the mayor, speaker and chief whip of the Matjhabeng Local Municipality.
This will essentially remove Khalipha from his position as executive mayor.
The Regional Executive Council says the state of governance in Matjhabeng is worrying, and service delivery has declined alarmingly.
This comes on the back of an announcemnt by ANC Secretary-General, Fikile Mbalula that Khalipha will face disciplinary action for putting the party into disrepute.

- Description
- South Africa has once again witnessed the disturbing scenes of looting and violence.
In Bloemfontein, what began as a community shut-down allegedly escalated into criminality, with violent groups and suspected gang members targeting foreign-national-owned spaza shops and local bottle stores.
While, in Estcourt in KwaZulu-Natal, police were forced to intervene and disperse crowds targeting foreign-owned businesses.
These incidents have re-ignited painful memories of the July 2021 unrest, which left more than 300 people dead, thousands of businesses destroyed, and billions of rands lost.
As communities grapple with unemployment, poverty, and service delivery frustrations, and the call for undocumented migrants imtensifies, questions are being asked about why protests continue to turn violent, who benefits from the chaos, and what lessons South Africa has failed to learn?
