I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 19th of August, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. Today I am going to read a scripture out of the Amplified Version of the Bible - Hebrews 11:1: “Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses].”That is very powerful. I want you to try and meditate on that fact. You see, faith is real, but you can't see it, you can't touch it, you have to believe it. Now, yesterday I shared with you how John Wesley, on his trip to America, got caught in a huge storm, was devastated, thought the ship was going to sink, the passengers were panicking, and there was a group of Moravian believers standing on board, singing calmly, singing hymns. They were not afraid at all, and it blew him away.He realised he wasn't even saved. Now I want to continue. Once Wesley came back to England, another Moravian, Peter Böhler, came along 3 years later, in 1738, and he told him he was at his lowest ebb spiritually. In fact, he wanted to give up preaching altogether. This is what Peter Böhler said to him and it has impacted my life as well. He said, “Preach faith till you have it, and then because you have it, you will preach faith.” I want you to think about that.In 2008, the Lord laid upon me to book the biggest tent in the world at that time which could seat over 30,000 people. It took 17 40-ton trucks, with containers on board, to bring it to the farm, and took over 2 weeks to erect it by a man called Attie Van Staden, whose life was impacted by erecting it. It was the size of 4 rugby fields in the end. I had R500 in my pocket, that's all I had but by faith I booked it but I didn't ask for a penny, I never charged for a ticket, and we had it on this farm and we had an amazing encounter with God. Because of faith, God sent 60,000 men, 30,000 in the tent and 30,000 outside of the tent, and He paid for everything. I want to encourage you today to trust God. He will not fail you.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

The Minister of Small Business Development, Stella Ndabeni, will hold a press conference today on the Spaza Shop Support Fund. She is expected to give an update on application processing and support to qualifying South African-owned spaza shops. The briefing follows a Portfolio Committee hearing which heard only R57 million of the R500 million fund has been disbursed to 930 shops so far. The Minister will also address claims that foreign nationals benefited from the fund. We spoke to Kgothatso Ramautswa, President of the South African Spaza Shops Association.

Deputy Director-General for the Department of Small Business Development, Qinisile Delwa, says discrepancies identified during the verification of spaza shop funding applications were flagged before any money was approved or paid out. The Portfolio Committee on Small Business Development is today receiving a briefing from the Small Enterprise Development Finance Agency (SEDFA) and the department of Small Business on the Public Protector's report, concerning allegations that some funding from the R500 million Spaza Shop Support Fund was disbursed to foreign nationals.

After a few months away, Watts & Wheels returns for the fifth episode of season 1, with William Kelly in studio and Duncan McLeod dialling in from the Southern Cape. Watch episode 5 now In episode 5, William and Duncan dive into: • The new Suzuki Across, an entry-level SUV priced from R350 000 to R465 000 that squares up against Suzuki's own Grand Vitara – and the welcome return of physical knobs and buttons, a trend Volkswagen is following, too. • Dongfeng's expanding EV range – the Nami 01, Nami 06 and E3 – a clutch of sub-R500 000 models turning up the heat in South Africa's budget EV price war. • Why fuel pain may be a tipping point: AutoTrader reports a jump in EV searches after the latest petrol and diesel hikes, with cheap used EVs vanishing fast. • The spiralling cost of car ownership, from ad valorem “bracket creep” to research showing it takes nearly 15 000 minimum-wage hours to buy a VW Polo locally, against roughly 1 600 in the UK. • A Polo milestone – 500 000 of the current generation exported – and finance minister Enoch Godongwana lifting the ministerial car price cap to R1.1-million. • Whether Johannesburg's City Power should be rolling out public EV chargers while it struggles to keep the lights on. The “Crazy Chinese” segment serves up a Yangwang – BYD's luxury arm – swimming across a lake, before the episode's highlight: an in-studio interview with Gary Davies, the South African behind a purpose-built electric game-viewing vehicle. Dubbed the “Bentley of the bush”, it pairs a 63kWh battery and two 150kW motors with clip-on body panels and a biomimicry-inspired cooling fan, engineered locally with the University of Pretoria. William then lives with Leapmotor's C10 range-extended EV for a week and comes away pleasantly surprised – seriously comfortable, remarkably quiet and frugal, if let down by a fiddly key and an all-touchscreen cabin. The show signs off with Hot or Not. TechCentral

The Department of Small Business Development and Trade, Industry and Competition will today outline the implementation of the R500 million Spaza Support Fund. Recently, the fund has faced calls for transparency from civil society groups like the Township Economic Commission of South Africa (TECSA). They are demanding accountability regarding application processing speeds and exact disbursement figures. The fund was launched in April 2025 by the Ministers of Small Business Development (DSBD) and Trade, Industry and Competition (dtic), to support South African owned community convenience shops, including spaza shops, to increase their participation in the township and rural areas' retail trade sector. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to founder and president of Township Economic Commission SA (TECSA) and Executive Director of SA Spaza, Bheki Twala....

South Africa has fewer than 400 public electric vehicle charging stations – up from zero just 15 years ago – and EV adoption remains stubbornly slow. Yet Charge, formerly known as Zero Carbon Charge, is betting big that a coast-to-coast network of off-grid, renewable-powered charging stations is exactly what's needed to fire up the local market. In this episode of the TechCentral Show, Joubert Roux, co-founder and director of Charge, joins TechCentral's Nkosinathi Ndlovu to make the case for the company's ambitious, R1.8-billion plan to roll out a charging station every 150km along South Africa's national highways – and to explain why he believes the company is taking on “a timing risk, but not a business risk”. Roux walks TechCentral through the December 2024 launch of Charge's first site near Wolmaransstad and the unit economics underpinning the roll-out: just seven vehicles a day at each station are needed to reach Ebitda break-even. He also explains why every facility is designed to operate entirely off-grid, citing data showing that EVs charged on Eskom's coal-heavy network emit 5.8 tonnes of carbon-dioxide a year, more than a comparable petrol car at 4.4 tonnes. The conversation also tackles Charge's unconventional fundraising strategy: a tokenised public offering on Mesh rather than a JSE listing, planned for June 2026. Roux argues that South Africa's institutional capital is “extremely conservative” and that tokenisation will finally let ordinary investors into an infrastructure deal that has historically demanded R1-million minimums. The Development Bank of Southern Africa has already committed R100-million. Roux and Ndlovu also discuss: • How landowners hosting Charge stations receive 5% of charging revenue, and the rural economic development case that sits behind that model; • The offtake agreement with transport aggregator Zimi covering 50% of capacity at upcoming N3 corridor sites; • Charge's formal objection to Sanral's proposed policy giving it powers over businesses within 60m of national roads or 500m of interchanges, and the broader regulatory headwinds facing EV infrastructure; • How BYD's planned 1MW supercharger network and incumbent operators like GridCars – which already records 5 000 charge sessions a month – are reshaping the competitive landscape; • Plans for 35MW truck-charging facilities and a long-term target of 120 stations across the national route network; and • Roux's prediction on when South Africa will hit its EV tipping point – and the two ingredients he says the market still needs: sub-R500 000 EVs and a genuinely reliable national charging network. Don't miss the discussion! TechCentral

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 8th April, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We are still thinking today and meditating on the Easter week that has gone by, and we realise again the tremendous price that our beloved Saviour paid for you and me. I want to say to you today, it's the garden, or it is the Cross. We need to make that decision. Jesus did. If we look at Matthew 26:39, the Bible says: “He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.”The hard part is to make the decision. Now the Lord Jesus Christ could have said at the end, “No, I can't do this Lord, Father God, I can't go through with this because I know what is going to happen.” He already knew about the forthcoming crucifixion and He sweated blood in the garden, trying to make the decision - is He going to go through with it or is He going to pull out? We can see that in the Gospel of Luke 22:44: “Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.” I have heard doctors say that when a person is totally stressed out, it can be that actual blood comes through the pores of his skin. That is extreme stress, agony, anxiety and everything else that goes with it. You see, although Jesus was God, He was also very much man. He went through everything that you and I are going through at the moment. I want to say to you today, God is calling you to make a decision. You cannot sit on the fence, either you are going to go through with it or you are going to call it off, but you cannot stay in the middle. I remember it like yesterday, when I got a word from God to hire the biggest tent in the world. It was built in Britain, it was extended in Germany and then it was shipped out here for the World Earth Summit in Johannesburg and by faith, I had a mere R500.00 in my pocket, that's not even $50 and by faith I went through with it and the rest is history. We ended up with thirty thousand men in that tent and thirty thousand men outside the tent. It was probably the biggest miracle I experienced up until that time, but I had to make the decision. If I had not made the decision, it would never have happened. Now you go to the Lord, you go to the mountain, go into the closet and pray that God will tell you what to do. If you must marry that person or not, whether you must complete that degree or not, whether you must change your job, whether you must emigrate, or whether you must stay here. He will tell you, but you need to ask Him and pray and wait. Jesus said at the end, ”Not my will but thy will be done.”Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day. Goodbye.

The Strand jaywalking saga returned to CapeTalk this morning after first featuring on #BarbsWire on 5 November, when a TikTok about a jaywalking fine went viral. The man at the centre of the video called in to explain his side of the story. He confirmed that he received a R500 fine for crossing Strand’s municipal road outside the official pedestrian intersection. “Yes, I am the famous person that got a nail for jaywalking,” he told Lester, setting the scene for a lively discussion. He explained that he had crossed the road roughly 400 metres from the designated crossing, choosing a spot with a central island that allowed pedestrians to pause safely. “I crossed the road maybe 400 metres away from the intersection. I didn’t even see the roadshow that was going on and literally, I just got accosted by law enforcement saying I jaywalked,” he said. When officers threatened arrest, he told them, “No, you can’t.” Despite this, the citation was issued, and he is due to appear in court next week. While admitting he technically broke the law, he argues the designated crossing is unsafe because the pedestrian green light and the car green light operate at the same time. “The pedestrian green light to proceed and the car green light to proceed are on at the same time,” he said. His follow-up TikTok videos, showing the intersection, have reached nearly 600,000 views, and he says lawyers even contacted him after seeing the clips. “So the City of Cape Town expects you to cross at an intersection where you could probably get hit by a car instead of crossing 300 metres away where you have a centre island,” he said. He added that City enforcement is inconsistent. He described an incident where his car tyre extended a few centimetres over a white line, and he was threatened with a R3,000 fine. “And then they threatened me about my dash cam,” he said. He is now preparing to challenge the jaywalking fine in court, having collected “three and a half folders of evidence” on pedestrian safety and traffic enforcement, including statistics he attempted to obtain under the POPIA process. The City refused to release the information. “How about enforcing the people at intersections to stop, not jump red lights and cause accidents with pedestrians,” he said. He confirmed he will not pay the R500 fine unless ordered by a court. For him, the matter is about principle and pedestrian safety rather than the fine itself.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Gert Nel from the Association for the Protection of Road Accident Victims about the collapse of the Road Accident Fund (RAF) — once a safety net for victims, now crippled by corruption, mismanagement, and a staggering R500 billion debt. Allegations of hidden claims worth R230 billion, cooked books, and punitive claim processes paint a picture of an institution in freefall. As SCOPA digs into the rot, victims remain unpaid and justice delayed, raising the urgent question: when the fund is broken, who will fix it and how? 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Getuie C het aan die Madlanga-kommissie vertel die tenderpreneur Vusimusi “Cat” Matlala beweer hy het ongeveer 500-duisend Suid-Afrikaanse rand betaal vir die polisieminister, Senzo Mchunu, se veldtog vir die ANC-presidentskap. Hy sê Matlala het na bewering betalings deur die sakeman Brown Mogotsi gedoen om die vlugte en verblyf vir die ANC-vieringe op 8 Januarie te dek. C sê Matlala het geglo sy steun vir Mchunu sou hom teen polisie-ondersoeke beskerm, maar het verraai gevoel toe sy polisietender van 360-miljoen-rand gekanselleer is:

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.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Mark Heywood about a health system so deeply riddled with corruption that it has even cost the lives of courageous whistleblowers like Babita Deokaran. From the R2-billion wasted on failed alternative building technology hospitals, to the “fogging” scandals, the R500-million blown on revamping a hospital in Carletonville, and the shocking Covid-19 PPE heists, the Gauteng Department of Social Development stands at the center of public outrage. Heywood unpacks how theft, mismanagement, and impunity continue to undermine healthcare delivery and betray the trust of ordinary South Africans. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

The SA Revenue Service (SARS) says a date is yet to be set for imposing 45% tariffs, plus VAT, on small cut-price clothing imports flooding the SA market from brands such as Shein and Temu.  SARS spokesperson Siphithi Sibeko said on Monday that the agency was consulting with the industry before upping the tariff on imported clothing, textiles, and footwear costing under R500. "The consultations are still under way," he said. Sibeko said SARS and the retail industry, including parcel delivery companies, are still discussing an implementation date. The agency doesn't want to "arbitrarily" set a date, causing a rush to comply. He said that the revenue collection agency had never set a hard date for the rules and that there appears to be some confusion over reports of a communicated date, which is not the case.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
