Madiba Notes circulation

The new Madiba notes will be released next Tuesday the 6th November 2012,confirmed the Governer of the Reserve Bank yesterday,Gill Marcus.The new bank notes with interesting features will be presented to the "old man" personally before they released to the public at large. It goes without saying that we are indeed moving to new heights as the country and contesting the first world type of behaviour and trading. Again "Thumbs up South Africa".

Missing Police Video

The Marikana commission of Inquiry is at a heat hitting investigation,question the police about the missing video scenes of the Uphill shootings in Marikana.The police who were in the Chopper filiming the events happened down did not present the video of the shootings by the police. The First scenes of the video are believed to have more evidence that could encriminate the police and find them guilty of shooting first. More pain is for the families who lost their loved ones at the massacre and they cant wait to see justice being done.

The police were indeed in the wrong, and they shot innocent workersl,who were unarmed and no threat whatsoever towards them but the investigations continue,more drama to unfold.Police were/are guilty and should pay for the pain they have caused to the families of the victims.

Miners vs Employers

Gold Fields miners yesterday were given an ultimatum to return to work before 12 pm and failing to obey this instruction they will have to face dismissal and apparently +- 12000 miners have been retrenched. The employees say they not going anywhere until the mine bosses sign on the dotted line the salary increase of R 18500.00. Now I'm thinking to myself does it make sense to increase salaries from 4000 rands to 18500? Well miners do work under risky conditions but the salary hike of such percentage is just Absurd.The Marikana increase of salaries was just the beggining of great bad things to happen in the mining industry of this country. I believe its about time the Goverment Nationalise our mines, else we'll soon be faced not with just strikers but civil war in our hands, if our leaders dont show good leadership skills.

December Mangaung

Cant wait for the ANC Mangaung elective conference in December. Provinces are busy pushing their nominees up and from where im sitting the Zuma camp together with ANC as a whole will witness something that they never saw before. Suprisingly the ANCYL is supporting Deputy President Kgalema Mothlanthe to stand as the next ruling party's president and i must admitt I thought Tokyo Sexwale would be the favourite for the youth but not to forget the Eastern Cape province will always push in with a very different approach as they always  do in these conferences but i put my money on Tokyo in the meanwhile.

Marikana Inquiry an issue

Families who lost their loved ones in Marikana Massacre are criticizing the Inquiry on how can it proceed with its investigation without consulting with the families first. Pretty well sure now the grieving families think of being sidelined by the authorities and that the police including the goverment would duck the 'bullet' and leave them out in the cold with no answers to the questions most 'widows' have.
