President Cyril Ramaphosa says the decision to allow a group of 153 Palestinians nationals into the country was driven by compassion, however their status is still being reviewed. This comes after the Border Management Authority initially denied entry to the group due to incomplete documentation. According to the BMA, the Palestinian passengers were not allowed to disembark from the aircraft as they did not have the customary departure stamps in their passports. The passengers were later allowed to disembark after nearly 12 hours on the tarmac, after Home Affairs received a commitment from Gift of the Givers that it will provide the passengers with accommodation during their stay in South Africa. The handling of the flight and the arrival of the refugees have raised serious questions about government communication and coordination. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for African Diplomacy and Leadership at the University of Johannesburg, Dr Oscar van Heerden

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê infrastruktuur gee mense die grondslag om te floreer. Hy het gepraat op die tweede Nasionale Bouberaad in Boksburg, Gauteng. Ramaphosa sê gehalte-infrastruktuur verhoog produktiwiteit, verlaag lewenskoste en vuur belegging aan. Hy voer aan die boubedryf kan gemeenskappe hervorm deur werk te skep en dienste te verbeter. Ramaphosa voeg by dat Suid-Afrika se boubedryf aan die herstel en gereed is om weereens die land se ekonomie aan te dryf:

Gift of the Givers vra president Cyril Ramaphosa om Binnelandse Sake en die Grensbestuursowerheid te ondersoek nadat 153 Palestynse reisigers gister toegang tot die land geweier is op die OR Tambo Internasionale Lughawe in Gauteng. Stigter Imtiaz Sooliman sê die owerheid het opgetree ingevolge sy mandaat om passasiers sonder 'n geldige vertrek-stempel toegang te weier. Hy sê Israel het hierdie arme mense se paspoorte doelbewus nie gestempel nie om hul lyding in 'n vreemde land te vererger:

President Cyril Ramaphosa is set to address the national Construction Summit in Boksburg today, where industry leaders and policymakers will discuss ways to boost infrastructure delivery. The summit comes at a critical time for the sector, with many projects facing delays and challenges. Elvis Presslin spoke to KZN Public Works and Infrastructure MEC, Martin Meyer

Die Nasionale Direkteur van Openbare Vervolging, Shamila Batohi, het bevestig dat sy vertroulike intelligensie ontvang het oor pogings om die Nasionale Vervolgingsgesag te infiltreer. Batohi het voor die parlementêre ad hoc-komitee getuig dat sy die minister van Justisie, Mmamoloko Kubayi, en president Cyril Ramaphosa ingelig het nadat sy deur 'n intelligensie-agentskap gewaarsku is. Sy het beklemtoon dat die meeste aanklaers toegewy is aan die oppergesag van die reg, maar sê 'n aanklaer wat verdink word, is hangende 'n ondersoek geskors:

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê sy eerste ontmoeting met Pous Leo XIV in die Vatikaan is besonder betekenisvol, aangesien dit Suid-Afrika se eerste hoëvlak-betrokkenheid met die nuut aangestelde Pous verteenwoordig. Ramaphosa sê sy verkiesing as Pous in Mei vanjaar het 'n belangrike geleentheid gebied om bilaterale betrekkinge met die Pous te herbevestig en te versterk. Die president sê Suid-Afrika is die tuiste van byna vier miljoen Katolieke:

South Africa has assumed the interim leadership of the Southern African Development Community - SADC. This after President Cyril Ramaphosa was elected interim chairperson at the regional bloc's virtual extraordinary summit on Friday night. South Africa takes over the reigns as calls intensify for the regional body to do more in order to silence the guns on the continent and to clamp down on oppressive governments. SADC has always been perceived to be slow, unable and sometimes unwilling to tackle and resolve regional political hotspots. To explore whether SADC can be more resolute and decisive under SA's leadership Bongiwe Zwane spoke to political analyst at the University of Toamasina in Madagascar, Prof. Solofo Randrianja and Risk Analyst and former South African diplomat, Dr Kingsley Makhubela

Analysts are divided over DA leader and Minister of Agriculture John Steenhuisen's request for President Cyril Ramaphosa to replace Minister of Environment, Forestry and Fisheries, Dion George. Some have called it a routine coalition negotiation, while others warned that it blurs the lines of the president's constitutional powers. This comes after Steenhuisen requested President Ramaphosa to replace Dr George with party spokesperson, Willie Aucamp. The request is reportedly linked to underperformance. But what do environmental groups think? The Southern African Faith Communities' Environment Institute - SAFCEI - is an environmental justice organisation and it's Executive Director, Francesca de Gasparis spoke to Bongiwe Zwane

The Khampepe Commission of Inquiry, established by President Cyril Ramaphosa on 29 May 2025, to investigate the political suppression of investigations and prosecutions of TRC cases, will commence its public hearings in Johannesburg on Monday, 10th November. The first two days of the commision have been set aside for opening statements by various parties. In January 2025, 25 families and survivors and the Foundation for Human Rights, brought an application to compel the President to establish a commission of inquiry into the interference in the investigation and prosecution of the TRC cases, together with a claim for constitutional damages. For more on this, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Zaid Kimmie, Executive Director of the Foundation for Human Rights

President Cyril Ramaphosa is as tussentydse voorsitter van die Suider-Afrikaanse Ontwikkelingsgemeenskap aangestel na die bedanking van Madagaskar weens politieke onrus en 'n militêre oorname in die land. Ramaphosa sê die Suider-Afrikaanse Ontwikkelingsgemeenskap staan as 'n baken van solidariteit en 'n gemeenskap gebaseer op die waardes van eenheid, vrede, gelykheid en wedersydse voordeel. Ramaphosa het Vrydagaand die buitengewone SAOG-beraad virtueel toegespreek. Die president sê hierdie waardes word egter getoets word deur 'n samevloei van uitdagings. Hy het die SAOG versoek om met dringendheid en visie op te tree vir bestendheid nou en veiligheid vir die toekoms:

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê alle Suid-Afrikaners behoort bekommerd te wees oor die toename in bendeverwante moorde, veral in Kaapstad en die Wes-Kaap. Ramahosa het tydens mondelinge antwoorde op vrae in die Nasionale Vergadering gesê die moord op sewe jong mans in Philippi demonstreer die brutaliteit waarmee gemeenskappe te doen het. Hy het bygevoeg dat ingrypings sal voortgaan om die geaffekteerde gebiede te stabiliseer en inwoners te beskerm:

Die regering sê hy het noodoproepe ontvang om 17 Suid-Afrikaanse mans te help om terug te keer huis toe nadat hulle in die oorloggeteisterde Donbas-streek in Oekraïne vasgekeer is. Die mans, tussen 20 en 39 jaar, is met lonende kontrakte gelok om by huursoldaatmagte in die Oekraïne/Rusland-konflik aan te sluit. Sestien van die mans is van KwaZulu-Natal en een van die Oos-Kaap. President Cyril Ramaphosa se woordvoerder, Vincent Magwenya, sê die regering veroordeel die uitbuiting van jong, kwesbare mense:

Die Nobelpryswenner en ekonoom Joseph Stiglitz sê globale ongelykheid is 'n ernstige probleem wat gesondheid, onderwys en die ekonomie raak. Hy en die uitvoerende direkteur van UNAids, Winnie Byanyima, het 'n verslag oor ongelykheid aan president Cyril Ramaphosa by die Uniegebou in Pretoria oorhandig. Stiglitz stel 'n internasionale paneel oor ongelykheid voor om regerings te lei oor billiker beleide. Hy het die G20 aangespoor om op te tree, aangesien ongelykheid 'n keuse is wat met kennis en samewerking aangespreek kan word:

Die voormalige presidentsvrou en medevoorsitter van die Globale Raad vir Ongelykheid, Vigs, en Pandemies, Monica Geingos, het Dinsdag die raad se verslag aan Suid-Afrikaanse president Cyril Ramaphosa oorhandig. Die titel is “Verbreking van die ongelykheid-pandemie-siklus: Die bou van ware gesondheidsekuriteit in 'n globale era”. Die oorhandiging is in Suid-Afrika gedoen aangesien die land die presidentskap van die G20 beklee, wat hom posisioneer om wêreldwye gesprekke te lei oor die aanspreek van ongelykheid en die versterking van pandemiese paraatheid. Geingos het gesê dat ongelykheid aangespreek kan word as daar politieke wil is. Ramaphosa het haar tydens die geleentheid bedank:

Die leiers van die regering van nasionale eenheid het belowe om vinniger op te tree met munisipale toesig, jeugvaardighede en -indiensneming, voedselsekerheid en die stryd teen bendegeweld. Leiers van die tien partye het vergader vir 'n tweedaagse wegbreeksessie by die Wieg van die Mensdom in Mogale City, Gauteng. President Cyril Ramaphosa sê die RNE bly verenig en gefokus om werkloosheid, armoede, misdaad, korrupsie en diensleweringsuitdagings aan te pak:

Die ANC sê hy is verstom oor berigte dat president Cyril Ramaphosa wil bedank. Berigte doen die afgelope maande die rondte dat hy die einde van die maand ná die G20-beraad in Johannesburg gaan uittree. Daar word bespiegel dat die minister van Minerale en Petroleum Hulpbronne, Gwede Mantashe, as president sal waarneem. Die ANC-woordvoerder, Mahlengi Bhengu, het aan Newzroom Afrika gesê Ramaphosa dien die land goed:

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê die RNE is verenig en sterk - Ons praat met RNE-vennote wat die tweedaagse vergadering bygewoon het. Die stof het nog nie gaan lê oor die Nie-in-my-naam-veldtog nie - ons voer 'n debat met twee opponerende partye. Ons bespreek die Proteas se eerste eendagstryd vanmiddag teen Pakistan.

Elvis Presslin spoke to DA MP and national spokesperson, Karabo Khakhau

It is often argued that the super-rich should not be taxed at higher rates as it disincentivises growth and success, but a group of wealthy Americans known as Patriotic Millionaires believes otherwise.

In the latest edition of the NdB Sunday Show, Political and Policy Analyst Professor Theo Venter tells Chris Steyn why former Police Minister Senzo Mchunu's position is “fatal”; where things went “very wrong” for suspended Deputy National Commissioner Shadrack Sibiya accused of massive corruption by tenderpreneur “Cat Matlala”; why KZN National Commissioner General Nlhanhla Mkhwanazi continues to impress; why President Cyril Ramaphosa - accused of blocking further investigations into health tenders linked to Thembisa Hospital looting kingpin Hangwani Maumela (his nephew by previous marriage) - is a good diplomat, but a bad politician; how State Capture is still continuing; why former President Thabo Mbeki maintains that there are still Apartheid spies high up in African National Congress (ANC) leadership; and why it has taken almost 60 years for a court to find that former Nobel Prize laureate, Chief Albert Luthuli, was not killed by a freight train but was beaten to death by the Security Branch. “…what needs to happen in the police is we need to get some guys that we can trust and that is absolutely what you see, is what you get - and I think Mkhwanazi is definitely one of them,” Professor Venter says.

Die UDM sê president Cyril Ramaphosa se viering van Suid-Afrika se verwydering van die Finansiële Aksietaakmag se gryslys ignoreer die werklikheid. Die adjunkpresident van die UDM, Nqabayomzi Kwankwa, sê terwyl die president tegniese voldoening en beleggersvertroue prys, staar miljoene Suid-Afrikaners honger, werkloosheid en vrees in die gesig. Hy sê tegniese mylpale moet deur sigbare verandering in mense se lewens geëwenaar word:

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê die 30-persent tariewe wat Amerika op Suid-Afrikaanse uitvoere gehef het, het die land genoop om sy handelsomvang te diversifiseer. Die president is op ʼn tweedaagse staatsbesoek aan Switserland. Die land is een van Suid-Afrika se belangrikste Europese handelsvennote met ʼn handelsvolume van 18,2 miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand in 2024. Ramaphosa sê die regering hoop om binnekort ʼn handelsooreenkoms met Amerika te sluit:

Another week of startling allegations of police and political capture by crime bosses have South Africans glued to their screen. Chris Steyn speaks to Juanita Du Preez of Action Society about testimony by Witness C who told the Madlanga Commission that tenderpreneur “Cat” Matlala told him that he had given suspended Deputy National Commissioner Shadrack Sibiya millions in cash and that he secretly paid R500,000 towards former Police Minister Senzo Mchunu's presidential campaign. They also talk about the former Police Minister's alleged “friendship” link to “TK” Molefe, who is controversially on bail - despite being linked to at least 18 murders; the former Minister's move to disband the very unit involved in his arrest; the failure to arrest Tembisa Hospital looting kingpin Hungwani Maumela, the nephew by previous marriage of President Cyril Ramaphosa; Brian Mogotsi, the African National Congress “fixer” all the way back to the CR17 campaign seemingly on the run after being disavowed by the party; as well as Economic Freedom Fighters Commander-in-Chief Julius Malema once again being suspiciously absent from the questioning of an allegedly friend at the Ad Hoc Committee.

Kommunikationsplattformen wie Facebook, X, Tiktok und Google sollen Nutzerinnen und Nutzern künftig ein Verfahren anbieten müssen, mit dem sie mutmasslich rechtswidrige Inhalte unkompliziert melden können. Das verlangt der Bundesrat. Doch es gibt bereits erste kritische Stimmen. Weitere Themen: Der Präsident von Südafrika, Cyril Ramaphosa, ist auf Staatsbesuch in der Schweiz. Mit der Einladung will der Bundesrat die engen Beziehungen zwischen den beiden Ländern vertiefen. Welche Strategie verfolgt die Schweiz auf dem afrikanischen Kontinent? Vor einem Jahr versank die spanische Region Valencia im Hochwasser - mit verheerenden Folgen. Die Schäden sind noch lange nicht behoben. Und eine weitsichtige Planung, um eine solche Katastrophen künftig zu verhindern, fehlt.

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê konflik en oorloë, handelsgeskille, die energieoorgang en die pas van die digitale rewolusie hervorm die internasionale orde. Hy het vandag ʼn openbare lesing by die Universiteit van Malaya in Kuala Lumpur, Maleisië gelewer, waar hy 'n eredoktorsgraad gekry het vir internasionale betrekkinge in die globale suide. Ramaphosa sê die Israel-Hamas-skietstilstand word verwelkom, maar volgens hom bestaan kommer oor voortgesette aanvalle op Gaza en die Wesoewer. Hy sê die internasionale gemeenskap moet toesien dat die vredesooreenkoms ʼn pad vorentoe bied vir ʼn Palestynse staat en selfbeskikking:

President Cyril Ramaphosa sê die regering van nasionale eenheid werk aan sy verbintenis tot ekonomiese groei deur lande soos Maleisië aan te moedig om in Suid-Afrika te belê. Ramaphosa, wat op 'n werksbesoek van drie lande in Asië is, het tydens die ASEAN-sake- en beleggingsberaad in Maleisië gepraat. Die president sê Suid-Afrika is steeds die poort na Afrika:

Deputy President Paul Mashatile is a flawed individual who should probably not be president, journalist and author Pieter Du Toit tells Peter Bruce in this edition of Podcasts from the Edge. Du Toit in his new book on Mashatile, The Dark Prince, lays out the complex web of personal and financial relationships that keep Cyril Ramaphosa's probable successor that are now “so intertwined that his life seems to be funded by individuals directly dependent government contracts”. “You remember that in 2009 (when corruption charges against Jacob Zuma were withdrawn there were large parts of the commentariat back then and in, in, in general, in the country saying, you know, ' Let's just give this guy a chance. He connects with people at grassroots level' ", says Du Toit. "And I think if we decide to say, let's just give Paul Mashatile a chance we'd make a grave mistake. He lacks a political compass. He is someone who who is open to influences outside of what can be considered proper. He's a deeply problematic character”. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Some experts say South Africa meets several global indicators of a mafia state. Organized crime has infiltrated government institutions, corruption is rampant and assassinations are on the rise. Even police are drawing parallels with Colombia or Ecuador. Cai Nebe talks to Prof. Andre Duvenhage and DW correspondent Dianne Hawker in Johannesburg.

In this edition of the NdB Sunday Show, Advocate Mark Oppenheimer of the Johannesburg Bar tells Chris Steyn “there may very well be an argument that the South African government itself has been either complicit or silent in the face of genocidal speech”. He was speaking after President Cyril Ramaphosa and former Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor made it clear that South Africa would press ahead with its ICJ genocide case against Israel - despite the Middle East Peace Pact. “…it would be interesting if the Israelis were to...take South Africa to court in a parallel piece of litigation." Oppenheimer commends the visit to Israel by two granddaughters of the late President Nelson Mandela, and their balanced view in contrast with their cousin Mandla who was detained and deported after the flotilla intercept. As for the Madlanga Commission, Oppenheimer fears that South African are suffering from “commission fatigue” - and warns: “…the ANC government might want to bear in mind that there's only so much you can do to the poor and the oppressed before they rise up against you and... slit your throats or do other terrible things to you as we've seen in other countries abroad.” Oppenheimer, who also specialises in municipal law, shares his thoughts on the Jo'burg Mayoral race - and shares his “unusual way of solving” the crisis in the City. He also gives the backstory to the case of Professor Adam Mendelsohn at UCT which stands to lose as much a billion rand in funding because of its anti-Israel stance.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to political journalist Pieter du Toit about the growing storm in South Africa’s intelligence community. President Cyril Ramaphosa has suspended Imtiaz Fazel, the Inspector-General of Intelligence — the very official tasked with keeping the country’s spy agencies in check. This dramatic move follows explosive revelations that Crime Intelligence bosses allegedly blew R227 million on luxury hotels, even as core policing budgets face cuts. For many, it’s an uncomfortable echo of the Richard Mdluli era — a time defined by slush funds, political cover-ups, and shadowy deals. So, is this a bold step towards restoring accountability within intelligence structures, or is it a calculated attempt to sideline someone who may have uncovered too much?
