ActionSA hits out against a R16 million fleet procurement scandal ActionSA has hit out at Gauteng MEC for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Jacob Mamabolo for allegedly shielding Emfuleni Local Municipality over a R16 million fleet procurement scandal. The party says the municipality paid for 17 cars but received only six, with one later vanishing, yet provided no proper answers on investigations or recovery of the funds. ActionSA is accusing the MEC of allegedly accepting a copied-and-pasted response from the municipal manager that simply cited "internal processes" instead of opening a criminal case as required by law. Elvis Presslin spoke to Action SA's Gauteng Caucus Leader, Funzi Ngobeni to elaborate further about their concerns and Emfuleni Local Municipality spokesperson, Makhosonke Sangweni

Welcome to BizNews Daybreak with Alec Hogg for Wednesday, March 18, 2026.

Suid-Afrikaners staar moontlik die grootste maandelikse brandstofprysverhoging in die geskiedenis in die gesig wanneer April aanbreek. Die Midde-Ooste-konflik hetBrent-ru-olie al verby $115 per vat laat styg — hoewel dit die week darem onder $100 gebly het. Voeg daarby 'n rand-dollar-wisselkoers tussen R16,50 en R16,80  en nuwe brandstofbelastingverhogings van 21 sent per liter vanaf 1 April, en ons kyk na 'n petrolprysverhoging van enigietstussen R2,50 en R8 per liter, afhangend van hoe lank die ru-olieprys hoog bly. Maar hierdie skok tref nie gesonde huishoudings nie. Suid-Afrikaners is kwesbaar.

South Africans are facing an impending and massive R8-a-litre fuel price shock when prices are adjusted next month. This spike is a direct consequence of the prolonged war in Iran, which has driven the Rand cost of oil up by 40%, jumping from R954 to R1,328 a barrel. The higher oil price - now above $80 a barrel from below $60 a week ago - is significantly impacting global inflation expectations, triggering nervous trading on Wall Street overnight. Also in Today's Daybreak: Global and local markets are under pressure, with the JSE down 0.75%, mainly due to a 2.5% fall in resource stocks. The Rand opened at R16.60 against the US dollar. Gold and Bitcoin remain steady at $5,150 and $71,250, respectively. SA's Geopolitical Tightrope: ANC Top Seven member Nomvula Mokonyane visited the Iranian Embassy in Pretoria to sign a condolence book for the assassinated Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Professor Edward Minnie discusses how this brings South Africa's delicate position on the war into sharp focus. Iranian Succession & Trump: Donald Trump is insisting on being involved in the selection of the new Iranian leader and strongly opposes a "North Korean style" succession by the Ayatollah's son. However, the FT's Tehran correspondent reveals that Mojtaba Khamenei has already emerged as the leading candidate in highly confidential initial voting. Investment Strategy Insights: Piet Viljoen discusses his worldwide flexible 'Cockroach' fund. He shares his protective strategy of holding a high exposure to previously inexpensive energy assets to guard against unpredictable global events. He also unpacks Warren Buffett's approach to geopolitics and explains his allocation to cryptocurrency.

It has been a wild 24 hours for the markets. In today's BizNews Daybreak, host Alec Hogg breaks down the Rand's sudden plunge from R16.08 to 16.73 against the dollar and its partial recovery following Donald Trump's strike on Iran. We cover the geopolitical fallout, including Trump's pledge to escort oil tankers in the Gulf (which helped markets recover from their worst levels), his sudden trade clash with Spain, and the anxiety gripping neighbouring Arab states. Closer to home, we look into a deeply alarming incident in KwaZulu-Natal, where an armed mob of 50 people — including members of parliament and assault rifle-toting police — consciously trespassed and invaded the premises of Newcastle's largest employer, the supplier of national mineral water brand Thirsti and major commercial cattle farm. Finally, Wall Street veteran John Rogers shares his perspective on market concentration and why he expects a shift away from mega-cap tech stocks.

We are waking up to a world significantly shifted by an unprecedented military escalation in the Middle East. In this morning's episode of BizNews Daybreak, Alec Hogg breaks down the immediate geopolitical and economic fallout of the United States and Israel launching direct military operations against the Islamic Republic of Iran. In this episode, we cover: The Frontlines: The timeline of the rapid escalation, including the death of Iran's Supreme Leader, Hezbollah's retaliatory missile strikes into Israel, and the barrage of US and Israeli strikes on Beirut. Market Shockwaves: How global financial markets are aggressively de-risking. Asian and Australian markets opened broadly lower, while safe-haven assets are surging, with gold jumping $150 to $5,370 an ounce. The Local Impact: What this means for South Africans, including warnings of skyrocketing fuel prices as crude oil surges 7% to over $70 a barrel, and the Rand weakening to over R16 against the US Dollar. Regional Instability: The terrifying reality for civilians in the Gulf, as intercepted missile debris damages infrastructure in traditionally stable hubs like Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Looking Ahead: A preview of our upcoming interview with South African-Iranian economist Iraj Abedian, and an announcement regarding 50 newly released tickets for next week's BizNews Conference in Hermanus where the focus shifts to Opportunities in Dangerous Times.

With a staggering R16.3 billion negative bank balance, under-collection of revenue, and internal reports allegedly buried by Mayor Dada Morero, the city’s ability to deliver services now hangs in the balance.
