A recent study conducted by South Africa's (SA) Stellenbosch University has unveiled a concerning trend among SA teachers, who are grappling with overwhelming administrative burdens and emotional stress. 

The findings indicate that half of the educators surveyed are contemplating exiting the profession within the next ten years, attributing their decision to burnout and inadequate mental health resources. Furthermore, 40% of teachers are unwilling to accept positions in rural areas.

Dr Heleen Hofmeyr, a Senior Researcher and co-author of the report, emphasizes the critical need for immediate reforms with Lulu Gaboo.

South Sudan President Salva Kiir has signed amendments to the country's election law, removing requirements that the completion of a permanent constitution and a national census precede elections. Kiir's office described the amendments to the National Elections Act of 2012 as "another major milestone" in preparations for the country's elections.

The South Sudan Opposition Alliance, a coalition of opposition parties and signatory to the 2018 peace agreement, has rejected the changes, saying they were made without adequate consultation among the parties to the agreement.

Lulu Gaboo spoke to Edmund Yakani, executive director of the Community Empowerment for Progress Organisation... and Advocate Sipho Mantula, Researcher at the Thabo Mbeki African School of Public and International Affairs.

Major U.S. television networks have suspended pooled coverage of President Donald Trump after the White House decided to bar CNN, Politico and MS NOW from access. On Friday, Trump accused the three outlets of publishing "fiction or lies" about his administration.

The organisations say their reporters were denied access to the White House on Saturday. In response to the suspension, the White House has launched its own streaming channel, Trump TV, which provides a 24-hour feed featuring clips of the president.

Lulu Gaboo spoke to media commentator and executive director of the Henry Nxumalo Foundation, Anton Harbour.
