20 April 2014

Exactly 20 years ago today, our first democratic President took the Oath of office and declared “Never, never and never again shall this beautiful land experi-ence the oppression of one by another and suffer the indignity of the world.”

As the whole world watched on May 1Oth to be exact, almost 7, 300 days ago, our freedom became the celebration for the entire world, as our President reached out to friends and foes alike, even going as far as to offering praise to the military that once used brutal force to implement the racist policy of apart-heid.Ladies and gentlemen, we meet again this year on the 20th anniversary of that historic day when Presi-dent Mandela took the oath of office to confirm our country and nation’s commitment to advance our hard earned democratic values.

Two decades ago we affirmed our dedication to respecting and upholding core democratic values including the right of citizens to choose their repre-sentatives through regular, free, and fair elections; to equal protection under the law; and to freedom of opinion and expression, peaceful assembly and asso-ciation, and freedom of thought and conscience.

As we celebrate two decades democracy and as we conclude our fifth democratic national and provin-cial elections we can affirm to one another and to the world – democracy is alive and well and thriving in our land.On Wednesday 18 million South Africans stood together as nation and as they did in 2009, 2004, 1999 and most famously in 1994.There is no more tangible symbol of nationhood and of inclusivity than participation in an election.Even as we make our individual choices, it is a pow-erful reminder of what binds us together as a nation and as a people.

Nigeria’s Boko Haram crisis: Kano suicide attack

BBC news

A suicide blast in a street full of bars and restaurants in the northern Nigerian city of Kano has killed four people, police saidOne of those killed was a girl aged 12 years.Witnesses say the explosion was caused by a bomb in a car in the mainly Christian area of Sabon Gari.The area has previously been targeted by Boko Haram Is-lamist militants but it is the first attack on Nigeria’s sec-ond biggest city for several months. More than 1,000 people have been killed by the Boko Haram attacks this year but the government has

said it has pushed the mili-tants back into their strong-holds in the north-eastern Borno state. This is where they seized more than 200 girls last month, in a case which shocked the world and prompted foreign pow-ers to send military advi-sors to assist Nigeria’s army tackle the insurgency.The street in Sabon Gari was full of revellers and street hawkers when a car bomb exploded.The BBC’s Will Ross in Nigeria says that Sunday’s blast was so powerful that all that remains of the car is its engine. The blast could be heard from several miles away.“At about 22:00 [21:00

GMT], we heard an explo-sion and immediately mobi-lised to the scene where we discovered a suicide bomb-er... Five people, including the bomber, were killed,” Kano Police Commissioner Adelere Shinaba said.He said that the victims were “three men and a girl of about 12 years”.Kano is the largest city in the mainly Muslim north of Nigeria.The bars and alcohol-sellers in its Sabon Gari area have been targeted on numerous other occasions.In January 2012, about 150 people died, in a series of co-ordinated attacks by Boko Haram.

Bongani Masuku was killed on Saturday night in Prin-cess street, said Lt-Col Katlego Mogale. Four men approached Masuku as he was parking his car and demanded a cellphone and his car keys at gun point. Mogale said a struggle en-sued and one of the men shot him several times.The men then got into a minibus and sped off.“The deceased then man-aged to drive himself to a nearby fire station where he collapsed and died.”Police were investigating a case of murder.On his official website, Clegg said they were shocked and saddened by Masuku killing.“We will miss him deeply and we extend our heart felt condolences to his family and all who knew him.”He described him as stalwart performer, a hardworking musician and a good friend.Masuku began working with Clegg in 1992.

GAUTENG BUDGET 2014/15Gauteng is home to just under a quarter of South Af-

rica’s population and contributes 36 percent of the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Because of its central location, it is also a gateway to other provinces and the rest of the African continent in terms of movement of people and goods. Increased economic activity through the public and private sectors create opportunities for in-dividuals to find shelter and make their livelihoods in this province. This is demonstrated by year-on year increase in the number of learners seeking education spaces in our schools. According to the 2-13 Mid-year population esti-mates released by Statistics South Africa, Gauteng popula-tion has increased slightly from 12.4million to 12.7 million.

It is for this reason that the Gauteng Provincial Govern-ment (GPG) continues to work on strategies that are aimed at yielding socio-economic benefits for all. Our response to addressing challenges such as unemployment, poverty and inequality are central to our business. There are continued and concerted efforts to accelerate service delivery by im-plementing programmes and projects that leads to improved quality of life of our communities. These include food se-curity, youth employment, Zivuseni, Bana Pele, Second-ary School Improvement Programme (SSIP) and Violence Against Women and Children (VAWAC) to name but a few.

As a way of demonstrating our continued commitment to improved social service delivery, Health, Education and Social Development account for the lion’s share of the 2014 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) budget and lays the foundation for the improvement of education outcomes, provide quality healthcare and building a hedge of protection for our vulnerable and affected communities.

Gauteng is indeed a better place to live and will con-tinue to be as we direct our energies to live in and con-tinue to be as we direct our energies to addressing chal-lenges that confront us and sustain the momentum of delivering quality services. The following sources deter-mine the quality of services delivered to Gauteng citizens:• National Treasury (R85.608bn divided into R68.673bn equitable Share and R16.935 Conditional Grants)• Gauteng Provincial Government (R4.266bn)• Direct Charges (R69.63m)

Over and above this, other sources of provincial revenue are Gambling and Taxes, Motor Vehicle Licenses, Hos-pital patient fees and other revenue streams. The condi-tional grants are mostly used for the Comprehensive HIV and AIDS grant (15%), Further Education and Train-ing (4%), Education Infrastructure Grant (4%), Nation-al Treasury Services Grant (21%), Human Settlement Development Grant (26%), National School Nutrition Programme (4%), Public Transport Operations Grant (11%) and (15%) of the budget will be spent on Other.

Comments on the budget are welcome and can be forwarded to:

Ehrenreich said Harris’ job was simply a duplica-tion of what was already being done by Wesgro and the Western Cape’s EDP.Harris quit the DA’s par-liamentary caucus to take up a new position as an investment officer in the City of Cape Town.Western Cape Premier Helen Zille and Cape Town Mayor Patricia de Lillie announced yester-day that Harris would be leaving his job as a DA MP to take up a power-ful position in De Lille’s office as the head of the city’s investment promo-tions arm.Harris said Mazibuko’s abrupt departure from the national legislature and the DA’s unfolding leadership tussle had no influence on his decision to take up the job in De Lille’s office.Mazibuko announced on Sunday that she was quit-ting her position as the DA’s parliamentary leader to study for a masters de-gree in public administra-tion at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in the US. Har-ris said he was offered “an incredible opportunity” by both De Lille and Zille to take up the position, which was first offered to him six months ago.Asked why he was pre-pared to leave an MP po-sition that allowed him to influence the national po-litical discourse to assume

a less influential position in the City of Cape Town, Harris said it was time for change after 10 years at Parliament, of which he spend as an MP.“Of course I hope I made a contribution [to Parlia-ment]. But I also want to make a contribution to the DA ahead of the lo-cal government elections in 2016,” said Harris.De Lille said Harris would fo-cus on job creation and in-vestments in Cape Town.He would also tasked with improving synergy be-tween the city’s economic

development department, the provincial govern-ment, and the Wesgro-the provincial investment pro-motion wing.“This will present a united front for investors looking to create jobs in our city. Together with key depart-ments in the administra-tion, Tim will enhance the implementation of the city’s economic growth strategy and our expanded investment incentive poli-cy, and will work to fully realise our vision of Cape Town as an opportunity city.” said De Lille.

25 RED BERETS HEAD FOR PARLIAMENT

The South African National Assembly is set for a seri-ous make over. The days of mind-numbing and tedious Parliamentary meetings are over as the new kid in the political fraternity, the

Economic Freedom Fight-ers prepares to send its members to Parliament. This after the Malema-led party scooped the third po-sition (After the ANC and DA, respectively) with just over 6% which qualifies the party 25 seats in Parliament out of the 400 seats avail-able.

Addressing the media at the Electoral Commission of SA national results cen-tre in Pretoria, the visibly jubilant Malema said “the ANC has reduced. If there is any reality, the ANC has lost.” Malema was referring to the ANC’s decline from 65.90% in 2009 to 62.15% in 2014.

According to the EFF’s candidate list released last year, Malema is the party’s first candidate to be sent to Parliament. But Malema still has to deal with his pending sequestration over tax evasion and several court cases related to cor-ruption.

Malema has hinted out that he will vote with the DA should the party continue with its vote for a motion of no confidence against President Jacob Zuma.

“If the DA wants to remove President Zuma, they want a motion of no confidence (and) we’ll vote with them… We are not just an opposition, we are qualita-tive opposition. We don’t just oppose where it’s not necessary,” Malema said.

Malema also said that if the ANC wants a two third majority which is very es-sential to make changes to the constitution, his party will vote with the ANC.

OSCAR PISTORIUS TRIAL SIGNALS IT’S TIME TO LET CAMERAS INTO IRISH COURTROOMS

to discussion, such as what happens if someone tweets a piece of evidence that is later disallowed?Twenty years ago the Law Reform Commission, in a report on contempt of court, said the argument in favour of al-lowing television cameras was sufficiently strong “to sustain a recommendation that an advisory committee be established to review the arrangements for, and legal provisions relating to, the recording and broadcast-ing of court proceedings by the media”. And that was the end of that.Judges will probably say they have no problems with cameras but add that the Pistorius and Simpson trials were simply about entertainment. They might also suggest there is

Irish Times

As the trial of Oscar Pisto-rius winds down, it will in-evitably lead to a short and inconclusive debate about whether courts should be broadcast here. On one side will be those who will point to the circus-like quality of the trial being demeaning, while others will highlight the constitutional obligation for justice being seen to be done.The Irish legal world has tended to be rather mini-malist in its interpretation of open justice. The door of the court is open and the public and journalists are allowed in, but rather grudgingly. In some courts it is still nearly impossible to even hear the proceedings, as judges and barristers mumble to each other, with microphones pushed to one side. Ac-counts of major trials are delivered by reporters doing pieces to camera, shouting over the noise of traffic out-side courts, while delivering something that sounds like a newspaper report being read out.Televised trials are not new and even arguing for television access already seems quaint given the tech-nological changes. The first trial to be televised was that of Adolf Eichmann in 1961, the year RTÉ was estab-lished. Since then we have seen the trials of the serial killer Ted Bundy; the rape trial of William Kennedy Smith in 1991; OJ Simp-son in 1995; that of music producer Phil Spector, and many more. Speaking of lat-er technologies, journalists in Ireland can tweet from court, but there are some is-sues that might be subject

no demand for it, that they have not been convinced, and they are sceptical about the educational benefits.One of the great mantras of journalism is never allow the important to appear bor-ing. If the administration of justice is one of the central planks of democracy then not only should journal-ists be allowed to cover it the way they cover other important events, with recorders, smart phones, cameras and even note books, but the same jour-nalists have a duty to make it lively, sensational (in the best meaning of the word) and exciting, otherwise no one will engage with the justice system.Judges do place restrictions on cover-age in the interests of jus-

tice and they will continue to do so. Even in the Pisto-rius trial there were limits on what could be televised.But by encouraging a notion that serious coverage takes place only in newspapers, the ju-dicial system is being elitist and is generally discouraging media coverage.Coverage does not have to be entertain-ment, though what’s wrong with that? But for television and radio reporters to cover a case they need actual foot-age or audio of judges giving judgments, of barristers ask-ing questions, and evidence being given, not necessar-ily as blanket coverage, but as quotes to better explain what is happening, to pro-duce packages that engage with dramatic stories, so the public knows what is taking place in our courts.

“I’m not answering that at this stage. There are pro-cesses in place to resolve the matter,” said party spokesman Mark Peach.He had been asked to confirm Parliament’s an-nouncement on Monday that Michael Tshishonga and Andries Tlouamma would represent Agang SA after Ramphele decided not to take up her seat in the National Assembly.Ramphele announced last week that she was taking a break from politics after a fraught election effort by Agang SA, marred by her short-lived decision to stand as the Democratic Alliance’s presidential can-didate.At the same time as the announcement, she said national youth forum co-ordinator Nyameka Mgu-zulo and chairman Mike Tshishonga would take up the parliamentary seats.However, when the Elec-toral Commission of SA

(IEC) released the final list of party members being sent to Parliament on Fri-day, Ramphele was listed first and Tlouamma sec-ond.Peach said he would only be at liberty to clarify the “issue” on Tuesday.He confirmed that some party members had recently put forward a motion of no confidence in Ramphele.“It was only two regions out of five in Gauteng and certainly not the rest of the country. It was Tshwane and another region. A small handful of people,” he said.Asked what would happen following the motion and press conference held by the regions, Peach replied: “What would any organisa-tion do if two small groups decided to do what they did?”He rejected reports that Ramphele was leaving the party and said her break would constitute “a matter of days or weeks”.
