Gauteng Health Department welcomes 13 babies born on New Year's Day

Despite progressive constitutional guarantees, including the rights to food and basic nutrition, millions of South Africans still face chronic and acute hunger. This disconnect  between legal promise and lived deprivation, is the focus of the Union Against Hunger (UAH), a South African alliance dedicated to eradicating hunger and malnutrition . To mark this year's World Hunger Day, the UAH held a number of dialogues nationally to engage communities and the public – and share information that will better enable and support the mobilisation of communities to demand their right to food and hold government and industry to account.

Battle to end the outrage of mass hunger in South Africa

Former President Joseph Kabila this week surfaced in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, just days after he lost his immunity amid accusations he is helping armed rebels fighting in the eastern DRC. Kabila, on Thursday, was visiting the eastern city of Goma, which has been seized by the Rwanda-backed M23 militia. He was reported to have held meetings with local religious figures in the presence of M23 officials. Kabila, who has been in self imposed exile here in South Africa, is facing the possibility of a treason trial over his alleged support for M23. Earlier this month, the DRC Senate voted to lift Kabila's immunity, paving the way for him to be prosecuted. To discuss this Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Godber Tumushabe, Associate Director at the Great Lakes Institute for Strategic Studies in Uganda's capital, Kampala

Return of former president Kabila sparks fresh crisis in Eastern DRC

Mamelodi Sundowns will today enter the 30 June Stadium in Cairo, Egypt, in their final battle in the quest to be crowned African champions. But first, they must knock down the resilient Pyramids FC to become the most successful South African side in the Champions League. The pressure will be on the Brazilians in this second leg of the Champions League final after they conceded an away goal in the last minute of their opening leg draw in Pretoria last week. To put their names into African football's history books, Miguel Cardoso's men will need not only skill and tact but nerves of steel as they will most likely face a hostile crowd in Cairo. To discuss this Bongiwe Zwane spoke to SABC sports analyst, Mathews Mpete
