Mbulelo Ngewu: Radio's Heart Beats Beyond AI

In a major boost for communities battered by gang violence and crime, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced in his State of the Nation Address that he's deploying the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) to support police in Gauteng and the Western Cape. This targets gangsterism in Cape Town's hotspots and illegal mining syndicates terrorizing areas in Gauteng. Residents in gang-infested neighborhoods have welcomed the move, saying police are overwhelmed and urgent help is needed to reclaim streets and restore safety. Jon Gericke spoke to the Cape Crime Crisis Coalition chairperson, Dr. Llewellyn MacMaster.

As South Africa approaches the 2026 State of the Nation Address, United Africans Transformation (UAT) is calling on President Cyril Ramaphosa to move beyond repetition and symbolism. UAT says the address must include clear, time‑bound commitments that address weak economic growth, high unemployment, rising violent crime and deteriorating public services. The party also demands a full, transparent report on what the government has delivered since taking office, warning that without accountability, the SONA will remain another exercise in reassurance without results. Elvis Presslin spoke to Dr Wonder Mahlatse President of United Africans Transformation party
