Gauteng water crisis dominates Lesufi's 2026 SOPA by Radio Islam

Politieke partye deel hulle verwagtinge van vanjaar se begrotingsrede. Rand Water pomp glo nie meer water uit die Vaalrivier-stelsel na Gauteng se stede nie. 'n Uitbreking van bek-en-klouseer in Lesotho bevestig.
Gauteng se premier Panyaza Lesufi sê die provinsie het meer as 9 miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand van sy e-tolskuld van 20 miljard rand afbetaal. Die e-tolstelsel is in 2024 amptelik geskrap. Die provinsiale regering het onderneem om 30-persent van die e-tolskuld te betaal, terwyl die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Padagentskap 70-persent van die regering se skuld sou vereffen. Lesufi het tydens sy provinsiale rede gesê die besluit om die skuld oor te neem skep geleenthede om nuwe paaie te bou:

Dele van Gauteng ervaar watertekorte, wat tot 'n aantal betogings gelei het. Die regering het 156 miljard rand in openbare befondsing oor die volgende drie jaar bewillig vir water, sanitasie en infrastruktuur. Ramaphosa het in sy staatsrede gisteraand aangekondig dat die regering in die finale fase is van die stigting van 'n nasionale agentskap vir waterhulpbroninfrastruktuur:
Gauteng se premier, Panyaza Lesufi, verwelkom die ontplooiing van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag om die polisie by te staan in hul stryd teen onwettige mynbedrywighede. President Cyril Ramaphosa het dit gisteraand tydens sy staatsrede aangekondig. Lesufi se woordvoerder, Elijah Mhlanga, sê die Weermag se teenwoordigheid is ʼn bepalende en noodsaaklike ingryping om die toenemende bedreiging van onwettige mynbedrywighede te bekamp:
Die Weermag gaan op die Kaapse Vlakte en in Gauteng ontplooi word om bendegeweld te help bekamp. Bek-en-klouseer is as nasionale ramp verklaar, en nou eis die Menseregtekommissie dat dieselfde oor watertekorte gebeur. Ons praat met die 20 jarige Kyla Reynecke van die vroue-Proteas oor haar ongelooflike prestasie teen Pakistan.

Die Gauteng wetgewer se Gemeenskapsveiligheidskomitee sê onwettige mynbou het Bekkersdal in 'n oorlogsone verander, met geweld, skietery en ontvoerings wat toeneem. Nege mense is dood en 21 beseer in 'n skieteryby 'n sjebeen in Desember, en onlangse aanvalle wakker steeds vrees aan. Polisie sê hoëkaliber vuurwapens wat met georganiseerde misdaad verbind word is hiervoor gebruik. Die komitee se voorsitter, Bandile Masuku, bepleit dringende optrede, beter wetstoepassing en verbeterde infrastruktuur om inwoners veilig te hou:
Meer as 100 onpadwaardige minibus-taxi's is van Gauteng se paaie afgetrek tydens 'n intensiewe weeklange wetstoepassingsoperasie gemik op onveilige openbare vervoervoertuie en operateurs wat nie aan die wet voldoen nie. Owerhede het gefokus op belangrike openbare en skoolvervoerroetes in Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni en Tshwane. Die woordvoerder van die Departement van Paaie en Vervoer, Lesiba Mpya, sê 108 taxi-operateurs het nie geldige lisensies gehad nie:
Die Gautengse polisie sê hulle sal voortgaan met die stryd teen onwettige mynbedrywighede in die provinsie. Dit volg nadat die polisie Sondag in Carletonville twee vermeende onwettige mynwerkers doodgeskiet het tydens ʼn intelligensie-geleide operasie. Woordvoerder Tintswalo Sibeko sê die operasie is uitgevoer nadat hulle inligting ontvang het dat onwettige mynwerkers ʼn groot voorraad ongelisensieerde vuurwapens en ammunisie het:
