Kuna swivilelo mayelana na matholelo ya vatirhi va EPWP eMulati ehansi ka masipala wa Greater Tzaneen.

Mulati Village, Ward 25, outside Tzaneen — members of the Mulati community have voiced strong concerns over the recent renewal of the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) contracts, claiming they were not consulted prior to the decision. The community alleges that the workers whose contracts expired in June were simply reinstated without offering new opportunities to other community members. According to residents, they reached out to their ward councillor to seek clarification on why the contracts were renewed and to advocate for transparency and fairness in employment. However, community members say the councillor refused to visit their area and dismissed their concerns, even undermining their traditional leader, the headman. In response to what they describe as unfair treatment and lack of engagement, the community has taken a stand, announcing an immediate halt to the work of the renewed contractors until their grievances are addressed. The situation continues to unfold as community members demand accountability and inclusive decision-making regarding employment opportunities in Mulati Village.

Afrika Dzonga ri havaxeriwa tihakelo tin'wani hi Amerika.

The United States has expanded its trade offensive, announcing a new round of tariffs on imports from 60 countries, including South Africa, in a move that is expected to reshape global trade and further strain relations with several U.S. partners. The new tariffs, which take effect  today, replace the administration's temporary 10 percent global tariff introduced earlier this year after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that President Donald Trump's previous emergency tariffs, imposed under emergency powers, were unlawful. The White House has now turned to Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, arguing that the targeted countries have failed to do enough to prevent goods made with forced labour from entering global supply chains.  Mixo Mashimbye u burisanile na mutivi wa ikhonomi na timakete, Vince Ndobe

IEC yi hlohlotela mavandla ya tipolotiki hambi kuri vayimela ku langwa voti yimela hi voxe ku tirhisa endlelo ra vona ra Online Candidate Nomination System.

The Electoral Commission is urging political parties and aspiring independent candidates to submit their candidate nomination and supporter lists early through the Online Candidate Nomination System, or OCNS. This follows the Commission CEO's message on Morning Live this morning. The Commission says early submissions will help avoid a last-minute rush before the system closes in the third week of August. Since OCNS opened in June, more than 20 political parties have already used the platform. To support the process, the Commission also held nationwide training over the past two weeks. More than 200 political parties and independent candidates attended sessions on how to use the system effectively. The Commission says OCNS allows parties and independents to capture, manage candidate lists, and monitor progress at their convenience. This forms part of preparations for the upcoming elections on November 4th.  Ntwanano Vuma u burisanile na Regional Outreach Officer eka IEC, Dlayani Shingange,

Swiphiqho swa xikolo xa le hansi xa Hundzukani eMpumalanga a swi hehi.

Hundzukani Primary School, located in Huntington village near Kruger National Park in Mpumalanga, has been serving the community since 1964. Recently, the school's aging infrastructure prompted engagement between the School Governing Body (SGB), the Department of Education, and the local community. Following a directive from the department, most of the classrooms were demolished to make way for new buildings, leaving only two classroom blocks—one with two classrooms—while the rest of the space is now used for staffrooms and storerooms. As a result, learners are currently studying outdoors under trees, raising concerns about weather conditions during the rainy season. The community has appealed to the department for mobile classrooms as an interim solution and highlighted ongoing issues with learner nutrition, noting that on the first day of school, no food was provided, leading to early closures. The situation remains a challenge for the school and its surrounding community as they await further support. Clifford Maringa u burisanile na murhangeri wa vaaki vale Huntington, Trevor Nkosi.
