Minister Mantashe reports that the industry recorded 42 fatalities in 2024, a marked improvement year-on-year Organised labour has pressed for a review of the working patterns and holidays bottlenecks in the mining sector after Chief Inspector of Mines, David Msiza, said Thursday that most mining incidents and fatalities happened during the day shifts. This comes after the Department of Minerals and Petroleum Resources reported vast improvements in mine safety and reduction of fatalities for the 2024 calendar year in what has been dubbed the safest period on record. Minister Gwede Mantashe reported that the mining industry recorded forty-two fatalities in 2024, marking the lowest ever number of fatalities in the history of the country’s mining, which represents a 24% year-on-year improvement, compared to 55 fatalities in 2023. Msiza said according…

Debt counselling companies Debt Rescue and DebtBusters urge consumers to draw a budget and spend finances wisely to avoid getting into more debt in January. Neil Roets, the CEO of debt counselling company Debt Rescue, said that January is one of the most challenging months for South African consumers, with many finding themselves under immense financial strain. “The festive season often leads to overspending on gifts, travel, and celebrations, leaving little room for financial flexibility. This is compounded by the fact that many employers pay salaries earlier in December, creating an extended period until the next paycheck at the end of January.” Roets added that for families already stretched thin, this long gap can be financially devastating. “Adding to this is the reality that many South Africans no longer…

Finbond Mutual Bank’s application to have an administrative fine of R10 million, R5m of which was suspended for five years, levied by the Prudential Authority reversed has been thrown out by the higher body, the Financial Services Tribunal after the “applicant has been found to have committed a serious offence”. The issue dated back to 2012, when the bank lent its parent company, Finbond Group, R155.9m in an unsecured loan. By 2018, the Prudential Authority had become worried about the loan because of the bank’s apparent exposure, given the size of its loan when compared with its net qualifying capital. Finbond Mutual Bank was registered in South Africa in 2012, according to the group’s latest annual report for the 2024 year. Based on the recent ruling handed down by the…

Chris Brown has filed a $500 million (R9.2 billion) lawsuit against Warner Bros. Discovery and Ample Entertainment, accusing the producers of the documentary Chris Brown: A History of Violence of promoting false and defamatory claims about him. The lawsuit, filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court this week, accused the companies of knowingly airing baseless allegations of sexual assault and evidence tampering to boost viewership and revenue. “They sensationalised debunked claims to drive viewership and revenue, recklessly damaging Mr Brown's reputation and spreading false information to the public. To be clear, Mr Brown has never been found at fault for any type of sexual crime.” The complaint further accuses the companies of “knowingly disregarding their ethical obligations as journalists”. The documentary, which aired in October last year on Investigation Discovery…

Many of our favourite media personalities are proud pet parents. From socialite Ayanda Thabethe to award-winning artist Boity Thulo and digital content queen Mihlali Ndamase, these powerhouses are embracing their roles as “fur moms”. The adorable snaps of their pets are enough to make anyone want to join the club. However, if you're considering becoming a pet parent or already are one, there’s more to it than just the cute Instagram-worthy pictures. As a potential dog owner myself, I often find myself wondering: Can dogs eat what we eat? This question pops up most often when it comes to fruits. Can dogs eat fruit? The short answer is that it depends on the fruit. While dogs can safely eat certain fruits, others are downright dangerous. Dogs are omnivores, which means…

The Tax Justice South Africa (TJSA) has once again called for urgent, more aggressive measures to be taken in the fight against rampant illicit cigarette trade in the country. This comes after multiple massive busts in some parts of the country, including the recent one at the Beitbridge Port of Entry on January 18, leading to the arrest of a 44-year-old foreign national as the fight against cross-border smuggling and the seizing of illicit cigarettes worth over R14 million intensified. IOL reported this week that provincial spokesperson Brigadier Hlulani Mashaba said the suspect, driving a white truck with a tanker trailer, claimed the vehicle was empty. But police, unconvinced by his story, directed the truck to the commercial ramp zone for inspection. In another recent bust, during a high-stakes operation…

Residents of the Nongoma region in KwaZulu-Natal harvested meat from an elephant that was put down after straying outside Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park (HiP) this week. Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife said that on Tuesday it received reports of six elephants roaming in the Vuna area, a significant distance from their protected habitat. Late in the day, an Ezemvelo official was dispatched to confirm the sighting. While the report was verified, fading daylight forced officials to delay intervention until the following morning. The situation became more complicated overnight, as the elephants moved further into the Masokaneni region. Efforts to guide the elephants back to the reserve on Wednesday, January 22, were hindered by adverse weather conditions, which grounded Ezemvelo’s helicopter. Assistance was sought from Heligistix, whose chopper enabled officials to successfully guide five of…

The Department of Public Works and Infrastructure (DPWI) confirmed a shooting incident at its building in Pretoria after armed men tried vandalising and stealing infrastructure and furniture on Wednesday, January 22. DPWI head of communications and marketing, Lennox Mabaso said the department has expressed deep concern at the brazen conduct of armed thugs who storm government properties to remove steel, aluminium, and other valuable furniture. He said the latest incident took place at the Public Works House in the central business district (CBD). The vacant building is being guarded. Armed suspects descended on the premises and attempted to rip off aluminium and other steel infrastructure including furniture. “The security intervention resulted in two suspected thugs being shot as the group was violently infiltrating the guarded premises. The group was armed…

City of Joburg Mayor, Dada Morero, has committed R50 million towards the restoration of the Joburg Art Gallery (JAG) archives. This is on top of another R60 million that the city has spent towards the restoration of the City Library set for a partial re-opening next month. Built over 100 years ago, the Johannesburg Art Gallery is the oldest museum of its kind in the City and boasts a collection of over 10 000 artworks. ​In addition to robust historical and Southern African cultural collections, the ‘JAG’, as it is affectionately known, also houses a growing contemporary collection, which has been facing a myriad of challenges of late. Morero revealed this during his address to the media following his site visit to the library currently under renovation on Thursday. Following…

The Joburg Super Kings have closely resembled a 1990s boy band coming together for a reunion tour at the 2025 SA20. Faf du Plessis, of course, is the lead singer, and he’s joined by Imran Tahir, Devon Conway and Tabraiz Shamsi. The quartet have plied their trades the world over in the intervening years, but their links stretch back almost 20 years, with Shamsi and now New Zealand international Conway having come through the Lions youth structures, before moving down to the coast to join the Dolphins together as rookies along with Tahir. “I was speaking to Devon the other day while we were having indoor nets (at the Wanderers), due to the heavy rains we had. Those are the same indoor nets we would come to for trials and…

As the global emphasis on sustainability intensifies, the mining sector is at a crossroads. Major operators must tackle the dual challenge of working towards net zero emissions while advancing a Just Energy Transition. These goals demand a carefully orchestrated approach that intertwines operational efficiency, environmental responsibility, and community inclusivity. Here’s how mining companies can rise to the occasion and lead the charge toward a sustainable future. A fundamental step is embracing renewable energy sources. Mining operations, often energy-intensive, have a significant opportunity to shift to cleaner alternatives such as solar and wind power combined with BESS systems. By installing solar panels on-site or entering Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with renewable energy providers, companies can secure a stable supply of clean energy. This move not only reduces their carbon footprint but…

Cashbuild’s revenue from the sale of its building and construction material supplies increased by 6% in the second quarter compared with the same three months a year before, the retailer said in an operational update on Thursday. Revenue from existing stores - for the 309 stores in existence prior to July 2023 - increased by 5%, while the 9 new stores contributed 1% growth. This, combined with the first quarter, equated to an increase in revenue for the half year to December 29, 2023, of 5% compared to the prior half year ended December 24, 2023. Transactions through the tills increased by 8% (half year: 5%), with existing stores increasing by 7% (half year: 4%) and new stores contributing 1% (half year: 1%). Selling inflation was 1.5% at the end…

Big Brother Mzansi contestant Ashley Ogle is facing growing backlash after making insensitive comments about fellow housemate Kay B (real name Florence Mphirime), who revealed in the house that she was a rape survivor. The remarks, which many viewers have condemned as insensitive, have sparked calls for Ogle’s immediate disqualification from the house. Kay B shared her experience during a conversation in the house, only for Ogle to suggest that Kay B was seeking attention. In an open letter shared on X, viewer @Mthembuzuzile expressed their disgust at Ogle’s comments. The letter has been directed to Mnet, Mzansi Magic and the Broadcasting Complaints Commission of South Africa (BCCSA). In it, the viewer condemns the victim-shaming behaviour displayed by both Ogle and her housemate Bonnie. The letter reads: “I am writing…

The uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP) in Johannesburg yesterday finally announced several key appointments and restructuring efforts aimed at strengthening the organisation. In a press briefing by the party’s National Officials, it was announced that Advocate Dali Mpofu has been appointed as the Chairperson of the National Disciplinary Committee while the party’s Deputy President Dr. John Hlophe has been appointed Chairperson of the appeal committee. MKP spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndhlela said the move to appoint the two legal eagles is a strategic effort to strengthen the party’s internal dispute resolution mechanisms. The party has also announced the appointment of new leadership structures for the Limpopo and Gauteng provinces. In Limpopo, Charmaine Petunia Nel has been appointed Convenor, while Kgosi Letsiri Phahla will be Deputy Convenor. Former EFF chairperson in the Limpopo Tshilidzi…

THE DA wants the top brass of the police to be summoned to answer questions over cases of sexual violence involving some of the police officers. On Wednesday, the party’s deputy spokesperson on police, Lisa Schickerling, wrote to the portfolio committee on police requesting that chairperson Ian Cameron cause SAPS senior management to appear before the committee to address the escalating crisis of sexual violence within law enforcement. “This issue has become deeply concerning, with numerous reports from the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (Ipid) indicating a disturbing increase in incidents of sexual violence perpetrated by members of the police force,” Schickerling wrote in her letter. She said the reports highlighted not only the severity of the problem but also the urgent need for accountability, systemic reform, and concrete steps to…

The South African Democratic Teachers Union (SADTU) has called for police visibility around schools following the brutal murder of a school principal in Kraaifontein, Cape Town. Dr Jeffery P. Sigudla was driving into Ekuthuleni Primary School with his wife when they were attacked yesterday morning, in Bloekombos, Kraaifontein. The principal died on the scene while his widow was shot in the leg and rushed to hospital. A witness said the victim had just arrived at the school when he was attacked. “He lost control of the vehicle and the shooters went to the car where they fired more bullets at the occupants. “The children were left traumatised by the incident. And the education department was there to provide counselling to the children.” School Governing Body (SGB) member Linda Pito said…

Pretoria’s inner-city traffic came to a standstill yesterday as e-hailing operators in Gauteng staged a protest, expressing their outrage over the Tshwane metro police’s impounding of their vehicles for lacking necessary permits. Drivers from Uber, inDrive, and Bolt protested outside Tshwane House, located on Madiba Street, where they parked their vehicles, causing traffic congestion at several intersections and disrupting the flow of traffic. They accused the metro police officers of unfairly impounding their vehicles for lacking permits and criticised the Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport for its slow pace in issuing the necessary permits. President of the Pretoria e-hailing association, Wonder Gala, said: “The government is exacerbating our situation by demanding permits, which they have stopped issuing. When our vehicles are impounded, we are forced to pay at least…

Viewers are calling for fan favourites Ashley “Ash-ley” Ogle and Bongiwe “Bonni B” Booi’s immediate disqualification following insensitive remarks about Kay B’s trauma on the latest episode of Big Brother Mzansi. This follows Kay B’s brave decision to share her story of sexual assault with the entire Big Brother house. However, some housemates were not as warm or supportive as she had hoped, especially given that it was her first time opening up about the incident. In a statement, Women for Change condemned the insensitive remarks made by the two housemates. “The recent conversation between Ashley and Bonni on Big Brother, which invalidated a survivor’s experience, is deeply troubling. “When a woman bravely shares her story of sexual assault, it is vital to offer support, not judgment or mockery. Labelling…

CONSERVATION organisations say rhinos can become aggressive towards humans when they feel threatened or startled, among other reasons. This, after a rhino attack left one person critical outside Pietermaritzburg this week. Midlands EMS spokesperson Roland Robertson said the service responded to an emergency call after a rhino attack on Monday. Their advanced life support ambulance was promptly dispatched to the scene to provide urgent medical assistance. “On arrival, our team found one person who had sustained serious injuries and was in critical condition. Immediate advanced life support treatment was initiated to stabilise the patient. This included the use of specialised rescue equipment to ensure safe and effective care in a challenging environment,” Robertson said. He said after the patient was stabilised on-site, they were carefully transported by their team to…

Khalil Ben Youssef says Kaizer Chiefs deserve to play continental football on a regular basis, and that’s why they are eager to win the Nedbank Cup this season. Chiefs have had a tough start to the season. They missed out on the MTN8 and Carling Knockout, while they’ve been inconsistent in the Premiership. Their run in the league has seen them fall behind in the league title race as they trail log leaders Mamelodi Sundowns, who have two games in hand, by 12 points. And with the title race looking to be between Sundowns and Orlando Pirates, the Amakhosi could only have an impressive season if they finish third on the log. A third-place finish also guarantees continental football via the CAF Confederation Cup next season – a secondary competition…

Whichever way you slice the cheese, you have to admit that the optics look as blurry as a pre-2008 broadcast of one of their league matches. Remember those days? Before the advent of HD, 4K, 8K and QLED (whatever that means), when you could count the pixels on your telly, and boast about 720p or 1080p resolution. You could barely make out the players back then, their only identifiers the numbers on their backs and the knowledge of body language, gait and position stored in the head. Those seemed to be simpler times when sport was driven by the game and not the mad dash for eyeballs on TV, the brinkmanship of who has the larger mob of social media followers, and the desperate need to chase down every financial…

Jose Riveiro is a realistic coach. As such, he knows that the postponement and cancellation of matches at the 11th hour unfortunately comes with the job. Orlando Pirates were scheduled to face Royal AM in the Premiership at Harry Gwala Stadium in Pietermaritzburg last night, but that match was postponed. This was due to the ongoing troubles facing Royal AM, which include the curatorship of the club by the South African Revenue Service (SARS). Pirates, fresh from qualifying for the CAF Champions League quarter-final after finishing top of Group C with 14 points, were expected to fly out to Durban on Wednesday. But the PSL called the game off. That put a spanner in the works as Pirates had planned to camp in Durban as they’d face Richards Bay in…

The world recognises Africa's mineral reserves as critical for the global transition to cleaner energy. However, this narrative, focused on the needs of industrialised nations, overlooks a fundamental truth: Africa's minerals hold a far greater significance for the continent itself. Africa stands at the precipice of a new era, where its vast mineral wealth can redefine its global standing. The continent is home to sizeable reserves of what the world currently defines as critical minerals: 55% of cobalt, 47.65% of manganese, 21.6% of natural graphite, 5.9% of copper, 5.6% of nickel, 1% of lithium, and 0.6% of iron ore. While the prevailing global discourse on critical minerals centres on the continent’s role in facilitating a just energy transition, primarily for developed Western nations, Africa needs to redefine "critical minerals” with…

Having lingering thoughts about debt and money issues can impact your quality of life, health, and mental well-being. The stress of being in debt, coupled with pressure from creditors and societal stigma, can lead you down the path of anxiety, depression, physical illness, and financial hardship. All of this can leave you desperately looking for an easy way out and seriously considering a potentially risky course of action, including giving in to the persistent advances of unethical debt counsellors. According to the National Credit Regulator (NCR), there is a worrying new trend of debt counsellors engaging in deceptive and misleading practices of placing desperate or unsuspecting consumers under debt review without their full knowledge of what the process entails or what the long-term implications are. Many South Africans have received…

South Africa’s engineering prowess has been hailed for the role it played in the rescue of 246 individuals from the Stilfontein mine tragedy. 78 people lost their lives tragically at the Stilfontein mine, the tragedy underscored the complexities of illegal mining in South Africa. Within three days, however, 246 individuals were rescued from the same perilous shaft. This remarkable rescue was enabled by a locally designed and manufactured mobile rescue winder, equipped with world-first capabilities, including the ability to operate to a depth of 3km. “The Mobile Mines Rescue Winder (MMRW) performed flawlessly and offers a glimmer of hope amidst the devastating loss,” said Russell Moore, the executive chairperson of Gauteng-based Tech Edge Group, which was responsible for the winder’s conception, design and manufacture. “The loss of life at Stilfontein…

Internationally renowned pop sensation Robbie Williams is set to deliver an electrifying performance in Gauteng this weekend. The English singer-songwriter, 50, will perform at the SunBet Arena in Time Square, Pretoria tomorrow and Sunday. Williams’ Joburg shows come after he performed to a sold-out DHL stadium in Cape Town on Wednesday. His South African performances follow the decision to cancel his show at Calabash South Africa at FNB stadium last weekend due to scheduling conflicts, with Green Day taking to the stage instead. But Williams’ fans are thrilled that they will finally be able to see him in action. He last visited South Africa in 2006 when he brought his biggest world tour, Intensive Care to Pretoria, Cape Town and Durban. Williams is one of the most decorated music artists…

Ricky Gervais is mourning the death of his canine companion from After Life. The 63-year-old comedian has taken to social media to announce the passing of Anti, the German Shepherd who starred alongside Gervais in the Netflix show. Gervais – who created, wrote and produced After Life – wrote on X: “Sad News. Anti, who played Brandy in After Life, has died. She was 13 and a very good girl (crying emoji).” The comedy star has also shared a throwback video clip of himself and Anti. In the clip – which is taken from a commercial shoot – Anti is seen trying to lick Gervais’s face as the comedian says: “Good girl! Good girl!” The news of Anti’s death has also been announced by Dutch Barn Vodka, the drinks company…

Former president Nelson Mandela’s grandson, Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandla Mandela, is still opposed to the Government of National Unity (GNU). The former member of Parliament first expressed his opposition to the GNU formed between the ANC and the DA last year, saying that the GNU was a consequence of the ANC’s compounded shortcomings, including internal divisions, widespread dissatisfaction among voters, and lack of leadership. “The GNU is forced upon us by contextual considerations, and whichever way we look at it, as the people’s liberation movement, it’s a consequence of our compounded failures,” Mandela said. He further criticised the ANC for aligning themselves with parties with opposing policies. He emphasised that his grandfather never prioritised himself above the ANC and its historic Tripartite Alliance that includes the SA Communist Party (SACP) and…

An 81-year-old woman has died after she was assaulted, allegedly by her son, at a small farm holding in Piketberg along the West Coast on Sunday. The victim was taken to Tygerberg Hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries on Tuesday. Rural and Farmworkers Development Organisation executive director, Billy Claasen, said: “According to reports, the 81-year-old woman was brutally assaulted by her 54-year-old son in the early hours of Sunday morning. She was taken to Piketberg Hospital under the pretence that she had suffered a sugar attack. “It is further reported that the medical personnel at the hospital informed the Piketberg police that it was indeed an assault. Sadly, the victim passed away on Tuesday morning at Tygerberg Hospital. The son has been charged with murder. “We applaud the swift…

GOVERNMENT employees are set to decide on whether they accept their employer’s offer of a 5.5% salary increase. The Public Servants Association (PSA) has indicated that its members, who make up about a quarter of state employees, are set to vote on whether they accept the offer from the government. The government initially proposed a 5% salary increase as part of a multi-term agreement but increased it to 5.5% earlier this week. Additional adjustments will be increased in line with the consumer price index (CPI), which, according to Statistics South Africa, increased to 3% last month. In terms of the proposed agreement, the CPI will be capped at between 4% and 6%. This means that if the CPI is below 4%, public servants will receive a 4% increase and should…

According to reports, SAFA president Danny Jordaan’s hold on his position appears increasingly tenuous as a faction of the National Executive Committee (NEC) is poised to propose his resignation in favour of Irvin Khoza’s interim leadership. This critical meeting, scheduled for Saturday, marks a significant turning point as it is the first NEC gathering since Jordaan’s appearance in court last year on fraud charges. Bhudha Mathathe, a prominent member of the NEC, speaking to the Sowetan website, confirmed the brewing discontent among certain members of the committee who are lobbying vigorously for Jordaan to step aside. There are reports that some members are even suggesting that he should refrain from chairing the meeting entirely. This rare move highlights the growing fracture within the leadership of Safa as it grapples with…

Residents of Zithobeni Heights, who have endured years without access to electricity, face further delays after a project aimed at electrifying at least 2 000 homes has stalled for over three years. In 2022, residents took to the streets to protest the severe lack of basic services, including electricity and water. Their frustration was expressed after being relocated from Transnet-owned land and severely waterlogged informal settlements, only to be forced to wait for basic services for years. Ward 105 local councillor Kgaugelo Phiri said the electrification project is being implemented in phases. The first phase, which aimed to electrify 500 homes, was initially scheduled for completion last year but missed its deadline. The second phase, set to connect 1 500 houses to the grid, is also pending. Despite the setbacks,…

In facing an appeal by a father against a lower court order that his two sons’ grandmother may have contact with them, a judge remarked that “grandparents, like heroes, are as necessary to a child’s growth as vitamins.” The Eastern Cape High Court sitting in Makanda further noted that the father involved in this appeal does not share this sentiment. Following the death of the children’s mother - a nurse - the maternal grandmother of the boys - aged nine and 13 - applied successfully to the Children’s Court to have contact with the children. This was after the father, with whom the children are now staying, refused contact with her or her family. The father was upset about the order by the Children’s Court, which stipulated that the grandmother…

It was a sight to behold – Ruan Venter unleashed, busting through a first tackle on the gain-line, storming forward, the tryline in sight and one defender to beat, a pack of Dragons chasing after him and clutching at his formidable frame. Five meters out from the tryline, No 15 Huw Anderson attempted to line up the 22-year-old Springbok and Lions flanker, only to be bowled over by a clattering fend-off that had Ellis Park stunned into adulation. “It was a lot of fun,” said Venter earlier this week at training. “It doesn’t happen a lot, so I wasn’t expecting it. But (Rynhardt Jonker) put me through the gap. It was my first game back, so I was a bit tired – but it wasn’t too bad. I feel good.”…

Mamelodi Sundowns will take a break from the cut-throat competition as they make their bow in this season’s Nedbank Cup on Sunday at Loftus Versfeld (6pm kick-off). Their opponents will be Sibanye Golden Stars, a third-tier team from the Free State ABC Motsepe League, and one of eight amateur teams in the last 32 round. This showdown will be a far cry from what Sundowns dealt with since the start of January. In 18 days, the Brazilians played four times, and two matches were played in Morocco and DR Congo. Three of the matches were CAF Champions League fixtures, and the remaining one was a Premiership encounter against relegation-doomed Magesi FC on Wednesday. Despite dominating the match, Masandawana scraped home 2-1 thanks to a late goal by Tashreeq Matthews five…
