She also shares suggestions for exporters struggling to see a future with 40% export tariffs looming. Veness spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi is “not scared of all types of bombs”. So says former police commander Willem Els, who is now with the Institute for Security Studies (ISS) as Senior Training Coordinator in the ENACT organised crime programme. Els tells BizNews that the “bomb” dropped by the General last Sunday took “tremendous courage”. Els, who trained the General in Bomb Disposal, described him as a”disciplined officer, a straight talker, a straight shooter, a straight walking” officer who is doing “the right thing as a policeman in his heart, in his actions…”, stressing: “He's a policeman in heart and down to the bone.” Apart from training the General, Els also worked with him on s number of foreign missions, and the two even had to “hot extract” former President Thabo Mbeki and then Foreign Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma from a coup in Haiti. They also worked together in Mozambique “where we lifted arms caches and destroyed huge, huge numbers of arms and munitions”, as well as in Equatorial Guinea in preparation of an African Union Summit. Els warns that it would “hurt” President Cyril Ramaphosa “very much” if he deals with the general's allegations of police-underworld links by using the “old playbook that the ANC (African National Congress) has been using ever since they came to power”. As for threats that black and white citizens could even riot together if the KZN general is not treated right, Els notes there are people who say “we might see a repeat of 2021 if people feel that they're not being listened to…”

MK Party leader Jacob Zuma is attending the trial of alleged July 2021 unrest instigator Bonginkosi Khanyile which is underway in the Durban Regional Court. Khanyile is facing charges of inciting violence and contravening Disaster Management Act. The court heard that in July 2021 just before the riots, Khanyile encouraged some people to go on the rampage until Zuma was released from prison. At that time , Zuma had been arrested for contempt of court after failing to appear before the State Capture Commission. The State has based its evidence in this case on videos in which Khanyile is seen addressing people and the videos went viral on social media.Sakina Kamwendo spoke to SABC reporter, Khalesakhe Mbhense in KZN

National Police Commissioner, Fannie Masemola has confirmed that he has not signed off on the closure of the high profile political killings task team investigating political killings in the country. This follows a media briefing on Sunday by KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi who alleged that Police Minister, Senzo Mchunu had ordered the closure of the task team. The task team was formed in 2018 to investigate politically motivated murders in KZN but has since been used in other provinces, as it had uncovered - according to Mkhwanazi - links between drug cartels, politicians, police, and prosecutors. Addressing the media virtually a short while ago, Masemola gave the following clarity since Mkhwanazi's allegations.

An anonymous listener shared the following confession with Stacey and J Sbu: "I accidentally found out that my partner of nine years bought an engagement ring. I really don't want to tell him that I know, because it will obviously ruin the surprise. I am nervous about our future (not in a bad way), but now that I know it's happening soon, I feel like I'm losing my mind. Should I be open and tell him that I know or should I just suck it up and carry the secret and let it consume my entire being?" The Drive Team duo then asked you, the people of KZN, to weigh in on the confusing matter. Here's what you had to say.

We're now well into winter, meaning the kids of KZN are leaving to school when the sun is rising and some are getting home after it sets. Given the change in seasons, Aunty Stacey and Uncle J Sbu decided to ask the kids of our lovely province which they prefer between a sunset and sunrise and why. Just when you think these kiddos can't get any cuter they shared in-depth reasons for their answers. If you missed it live, tune in!

After chatting about J Sbu's interview with Get It Magazine, the team asked the parents of KZN what they enjoy most about being a parent. We heard the most heartfelt messages from the parents of the province and could not get enough of their passion and love for their little ones. If you missed it live, tune in!

Die hoofverdagte in die moord op die 30-jarige Olorato Mongale is vanoggend in KwaZulu-Natal deur die polisie doodgeskiet. Haar liggaam is Sondag in Lombardy-Wes in Johannesburg gevind. KZN se polisiekommissaris, Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, sê hulle het inligting ontvang dat een van die verdagtes by ʼn woonkompleks in Amanzimtoti skuil. Hy sê toe die beamptes daar aankom, het die verdagte op hulle geskiet. Hulle het teruggeskiet en hy is noodlottig gewond:

We caught up with Ash Padayachee, the creator of NeuroGroove SA, who made a catchy Afro-house beat about East Coast Radio's Stacey and J Sbu. "I've been professionally DJing for many years. I started in my early teens, so it's been roughly about 25 years of being in the music industry. So the track 'Stacey and J Sbu' was inspired by the energy and the vibe that they bring to the drive time show," the Pietermaritzburg native said. According to Padayachee, he was inspired by their electric chemistry and how they're unapologetically themselves. "They represent such a strong part of KZN culture, so I wanted to capture that feeling in a track that's sort of like a beat that feels like a Friday afternoon, windows down, volume up kind of vibe. It's a celebration of who they are and what they mean to so many listeners across the province," said Padayachee. He explained that the Drive Team's energy after a long day at work “brings your vibe back.” After learning that Stacey and J Sbu heard his song, he said: "I think it's also that they've listened to it and the fact that they enjoy it. I think I'm excited to know that somebody out there is, you know, appreciating the work that we do."

Four people, including a teenage girl, have been gunned down at a home in Dundee, in northern KZN. Website

Every Wednesday, Stacey and J Sbu open the hotline for the kids of KZN to share their thoughts on air. This week, J Sbu was on his own but that didn't stop him from chatting with the little ones of our province. He opened the hotline by asking the minis of our province who their best friends are and why? We received a number of answers that ranged from adorable to down right emotional! J Sbu even shared a voicenote from his son, Zanda. If you missed it live, tune in!
