It’s been a rollercoaster for Floyd Shivambu’s career: Moving from resigning his position as Deputy President of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) last year, to joining uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party and becoming its Secretary General. He was then expelled from the party and has now launched his new political party after months of consulting with voters... all of this happening within the last two years.

A disturbing case out of Boksburg has once again forced South Africans to confront a frightening reality: sexual violence can take many forms, and consent is non-negotiable. Police have arrested a 34-year-old man accused of drugging his wife, raping her while she was unconscious, and sharing pornographic videos of the assaults without her consent. Investigators say the crime spanned years, with the victim appearing sedated and unaware when the offences occurred. This form of assault is linked in academic literature to somnophilia—a term describing a sexual interest in someone who is asleep or unconscious. While somnophilia itself refers to a psychological interest, when acted upon without consent it becomes incapacitated sexual assault or rape, a serious criminal offence.
Tonight, we unpack the legal and psychological dimensions of this crime, what it tells us about
consent and power, and why the term “sleep” in this context should never be mistaken for consent.

AFTER 8 IS AFTER 8: When Sleep Is Not Consent: Exploring Somnophilia and the Boksburg Sexual Assault Case

South Africa’s official data systems are under scrutiny tonight, following reports that the Statistics South Africa database may have been hacked or compromised. This is the very institution responsible
for collecting and safeguarding some of the country’s most critical information—from population data to economic indicators that shape national policy. A breach of this nature raises serious concerns, not
only about cybersecurity, but about public trust. If sensitive data can be accessed or manipulated, what does that mean for the integrity of the numbers we rely on to make decisions about the economy, service delivery, and governance? Tonight, we unpack what may have happened, what
information could be at risk, and whether South Africa’s institutions are equipped to defend themselves in an increasingly digital world.

Data Breach Crisis: Has South Africa’s Official  Statistics Database Been Compromised? ( CYBER SECURITY EXPERT SIBUSISO SISHI )

Suspended Police Minister Senzo Mchunu is back in the political arena, resuming his duties as a member of the African National Congress National Executive Committee—despite still being under investigation. His return comes after months of ‘special leave’ following serious allegations linked to interference in police operations and the controversial handling of the Political Killings Task Team.
While Mchunu maintains his innocence and has not been found guilty of any wrongdoing, the timing of his return raises difficult questions. Is this a fair application of due process—allowing a leader to
continue working until proven otherwise—or does it undermine accountability, especially given the
seriousness of the allegations? Tonight, we want to hear from you: was the ANC right
to allow Senzo Mchunu to resume his duties, or does this send the wrong message about leadership and accountability in South Africa? HOW WILL THAT BE DIGESTED BY THE VIEWER IN THE UPCOMING ELECTIONS.
