We have all been there, standing in an endless queue, dealing with "system down" delays, or being asked for a cheeky R150 bribe just to get an ID card! 😤🧾

On this episode of Word on The Street on Afternoons with Zweli, Zweli reacts to the viral TikTok clip of a woman who literally stood on a chair inside a Home Affairs branch to call out corruption and demand her rights. Zweli uses the viral moment to dive into the universal struggle of dealing with bureaucracy and the power of standing your ground.

From tense run-ins with rude bank representatives to navigating the Consumer Protection Act (CPA), the team discusses how everyday citizens can empower themselves when service providers fail to deliver. Listeners also call in to share their own hilarious, tense, and triumphant bad customer service stories.

Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture.  

Hear what the Word on the Street is, test your skills with the high-pressure 6 Out of 6, and get ready to be entertained.
