While the relief measures are a small step in the right direction, they are insufficient to meet the current humanitarian crisis under lockdown conditions. Many poor families are going hungry. The situation remains desperate with many queueing for food parcels. The threat of starvation or even the possibility of death from hunger, rather than from the coronavirus, for many people is real.1 It is within this context that we argue that the social grant relief measures remain inadequate. COVID-19 has underscored the critical role of adequate investments in public health, comprehensive social protection programmes, dignified and decent work, and access to food, water, sanitations systems and housing.

  • Gordhan Tells of Government's Push to Secure Nuclear Deal
    19 November 2018 Zondo Commission: Gordhan describes government’s push to secure nuclear deal Public enterprise minister Pravin Gordhan urged South Africans to connect the dots and learn for themselves how state capture happened – keeping the failed Russia nuclear deal, the bombed out Denel Asia venture and the appointment of former Sars commissioner Tom Moyane in mind. He was testifying before the commission of inquiry into state capture on Monday. The concept of state capture, he said, is understood to be the manifestation of a network of systems that usually have a sole or few ultimate beneficiaries, with players who can be categorised to suit the needs at different levels of the project. Gordhan spent most of the morning explaining the dynamics within which he led the national treasury – during two tenures that were interrupted by a stint in the co-operative governance department (Cogta) – and the level at which its systems were compromised. He was first appointed minister of finance shortly after the 2009 national elections, and redeployed to Cogta in 2014, before returning to the finance portfolio. Gordhan then elaborated on three major processes that happened during his first term and beyond, which raised eyebrows for him and his colleagues at Treasury. First up was the infamous nuclear deal with Russia, to which Treasury was opposed in principle, right from the start. In a late 2013 meeting between Gordhan, his then director-general Lungile Fuzile, Senti Thobejane - advisor to then minister of energy Ben Martins - and Zuma, a compromise was struck between the two departments. Fuzile and Thobejane, it was decided, would work on the framework that would structure a procurement process for the consumption of nuclear power for South Africa, no different from any other tender process entered into by government.

  • South Africa Political Snapshot New ANC President Ramaphosa’S Mixed Hand Holds Promise for South Africa’S Future
    South Africa Political Snapshot New ANC President Ramaphosa’s mixed hand holds promise for South Africa’s future South Africa’s ruling party, the African National Congress, yesterday (20 December) concluded its 54th National Conference at which it elected a new leadership. South African Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa was announced the ANC’s new leader against a backdrop of fast-deteriorating investor confidence in the country. The new team will likely direct the ANC’s leadership of the country for the next five years and beyond. Mr Ramaphosa’s victory is not complete. The election results have been the closest they have been of any ANC leadership election in recent times. The results for the top six leaders of the ANC (Deputy President, National Chairperson, Secretary-General, Treasurer-General and Deputy Secretary-General) and the 80-member National Executive Committee (NEC - the highest decision-making body of the party between conferences) also represent a near 50-50 composition of the two main factions of the ANC. Jacob Zuma, Mr Ramaphosa’s predecessor, still retains the presidency of South Africa’s government (the next general election is still 18 months away). It enables Mr Zuma to state positions difficult for the new ANC leadership to find clawback on, and to leverage whatever is left of his expanded patronage network where it remains in place. A pointed reminder of this was delivered on the morning the ANC National Conference commenced, when President Zuma committed the government to provide free tertiary education for students from homes with combined incomes of below R600 000 – an commitment termed unaffordable by an expansive judicial investigation, designed to delay his removal from office and to paint him as a victim in the event it may be attempted.
