The IEC has extended an opportunity to submit candidate lists to 32 political parties it says were in a similar position to the ANC, ahead of the November fourth local government elections. The Commission says the decision is aimed at ensuring equal treatment of political parties following the Constitutional Court ruling in favour of the ANC. The IEC says the 32 parties had nominated compliant candidates and paid their election deposits but had not submitted their final candidate lists. IEC chairperson, Mosotho Moepya says excluding parties in similar circumstances would raise concerns about fairness in the electoral process. For today's discussion on this matter, Bongiwe Zwane caught up with Professor Sethulego Matebesi. Political Analyst from the University of the Free State, Former IEC deputy chair and now executive chair of the Institute of Election Management Services in Africa, Terry Tselane together with legal expert and Senior Lecturer at the Wits School of Law, Dr Shadi Maganoe...

IEC Affords 32 Political Parties an Olive Branch

The Green Connection calls on the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) to reject Eskom's proposed 8.83% electricity tariff increase for the 2027/28 financial year. The eco-justice organisation, working closely with grassroots coastal communities and small-scale fishers, warns that another substantial increase will place an unacceptable burden on households already struggling with the rising cost of living. The Green Connection also calls on NERSA to extend and strengthen the public participation process, arguing that a single day of public hearings is insufficient for meaningful engagement on an issue with far-reaching consequences for millions of South Africans. Bongiwe Zwane earlier caught up with Community Outreach Ambassador at The Green Connection.  Neville Van Rooy
