"Crime is counter-revolutionary" | Upbringing, PhD journey, joining EFF, Crime in Johannesburg

[@mosesene]

EFF is doing great. imagine this kind of professionalism with more budget? I will vote for EFF even if I am the only one.

[@nokulungamabuza6610]

You’re not the only one✊🏾

[@vangilelinah2023]

Hey wena😂😂😂 you are not alone sithi thatha EFF thatha❤❤❤

[@mosesene]

@@vangilelinah2023 hahahahaha. I know hey 😁😁😁😁😁😁

[@sithembisomajozi2364]

I’m impressed, EFF keep recruiting this type of talented people. We have them in SA.

[@Tizza.21]

Level of intellect unmatched,Black excellence ❤

[@NdikhayeNetshiozwi]

this guy is so excited about Science and knowing that he is in the EFF makes me feel like that country is in safe hands.

[@mandisireehkavyahrulashe4893]

No doubt, with this kind of leadership we're moving in the right direction

[@JabsMajozi]

This guy is so excited about Science and knowing that he is in the EFF makes me feel like the country is out of credible organizations.

[@lindiwesoko7876]

It scares me

[@nathanielkgobe427]

I humbly want to make this plea to my fellow Safricans with sound minds and ask themselves this simple question,, why many learned Africans and critical thinkers are now joining the EFF.

[@raymondshiburi9151]

I thoroughly enjoy interviews where various leaders of the Eff are interviewed, the depth of the Eff leadership is inspiring 🔥

[@SasekaLorreinZitha]

MMC Dr. Mgcini The man holding GLU in the city of JHB. Politics aside this man's working skills are unmatched

[@leshopegerald]

Majority of EFF officials are just as educated and skillful at what they do. The problem is us the people who refuse to give them a chance to prove themselves

[@aneleminisi471]

So far Mgcini is doing well 👌👌👌 the problem is that his Boss is full of nonsense he is so jealous he doesn't want anything that seek to outshine him.

[@eli-praisetladi2001]

His boss is the one who motivates them to give south Africans only the best, he prides himself because of this type of leaders he has deployed.

[@nathanielkgobe427]

This is the naked truth and unbiased to the core, how i wish many southafricans could be able to scrutinize and dig deeper pertaining to the serious critic complex and sophisticated issues prevailing in our country, my wish is solely focused on the youth of this country, bcs the future of SAFRICA is in their own hands and that of their children.

[@sibudamkoko9162]

Which boss? EFF or COJ?

[@tdibetso8853]

Excellent interview!! Dr Mgcini is doing amazing work!! Respect.

[@_SMWX]

Thanks!

[@innocentemanuel6201]

Benefits of putting educated people in charge, thanks MMC for the effort you putting on fighting crime.

[@obakengafrica2919]

This is one of the most inspiring figures in politics currently. There is something about a person being accomplished outside of politics that gives them a gravitas that career politicians don't have. I really enjoyed this episode.

[@oratile7205]

What Dr Mgcini is saying about South African corporate it's true. I can write a book.

[@coolanathi]

Hope for the hopeless, can't wait to hear of his strides in Part Two. The Doc seems to have a great understanding of the challenges, that's a great start. The challenges sound rudimentary, it's difficult to understand why no one has been able to do anything about them. Shoulder to the wheel Doc, we desperately need solutions 🙌🏾

[@makobotimakgota3526]

Kommissar, keep doing the good work. We are with You leadership.

[@ms_tee]

I know Mgcini from university days and he's intelligence plus work ethic has always been unmatched!! COJ is in good hands here!!

[@SenzoAtt]

You know one thing I like about our MMC is the love of his job.His educational background inspired me.

[@normankhumalo5603]

Thank you Sizwe. What a powerful show. So glad I was able to listen. God bless Ayeye!

[@thamsanqavilakazi8219]

I am honestly impressed by the logic from the Doc to think we had people occupying these positions for years and failed to identify such basic things, which need to be fixed in order to reduce crime and improve service delivery. In the EFF I see leadership that's willing to hit the ground running ( implementation). Something the ruling party is failing at desperately. RDP, GEAR, NDP some of the examples of how the ANC has managed to identify solutions but lack the political will to implement any of their resolutions.

[@mfanakithi2002]

I am tempted by this man. He speaks to the challenges of black professionals very well. More importantly He is clear on what is being done in the city. Next we clean up the city

[@bakangbdeep]

Sol Phenduka is really passionate I like this guy

[@nkhetheni1]

Iyooo when this guy talk about his job as mmc you can see he really mean it. He realy need full support.

[@petermoema5447]

Mgcina is the inspiration, a patriot. ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

[@silakhesingata7370]

This is my favorite KZbin channel. Keep up the good work grootman!

[@HapSek]

If only we can give the eff a chance… they will show us they can do it ….✊🏽✊🏽

[@BrianWilliams03]

I can only hope MMC Dr Tshwaku stays in that position until at least 2026 so that he deals with everything. This guy is the reason the EFF might get 50%+1 in CoJ in 2026 because people are beginning to see what he is doing. ANC hates the EFF because of people like him, they work everyday to deliver and the good thing is that they are constantly visible on the ground. We need part 2. And i like the fact that he's excited and enjoy his job and that's why we begin to see changes

[@AlexRalane]

There should definitely be a follow-up to this conversation and touch on the other aspects of public safety. It is refreshing to hear someone being passionate about actually pulling up their boot straps and hit the ground running. Of course it was also fascinating to listen to the MMC life story and his relationship with identity, politics and work discrimination in his come up years. I would like to suggest other government deployees about the technical work their are assigned to. We should be able to here their successes and challenges, not so much about the political parties they come from

[@simelethabobotha3532]

this guy is pure, and ubcan hear he just want to serve the people.

[@MananaNthinya]

Halala,! EFF you deploy the best of the best.Sure to get my vote.

[@patricknkosi5412]

You know hearing the Dr's passion about Science and Maths gives me goosebumps. We have a lot of educated blacks who are either sidelined or ''drugged '' into debts so they never get to see the light. We need innovation, we need these individuals, we need you Sizwe! To be at the forefront of leadership. At least i have hope when i see academias taking over leadership role in shaping the country. I hope they should conduct stats to see how many of these smart blacks and call them to a meeting to pave a way to shape our country and our continent.

[@Mzukisi_Gwata]

Good to see that the MMC has a broad grasp of his portfolio.

[@chusta1555]

I may not agree with the EFF on certain issues ( stance on the springboks). but when it comes to attracting the brightest minds in society. They are certainly unmatched on that department

[@bitcoinmoney8784]

Then what's important between springbog and bright minds to benefit all

[@nomfunekonosilela3895]

Sizwe I enjoyed the interview very informative. EFF deployees have made me understand what MMC's do. All these years I didn't know what their role was in the council. Not sure whether you are still going to improve the lighting but I found it a bit dark, aesthetically it didn't look good.

[@sakiajazzmanmotaung2848]

I enjoyed the interview. The Doc surely deserves to come back.

[@pastorq-miraclearenacfci2025]

[@nhlanhla7273]

Sizwe thanks so much for this interview, giving us an insight into this Black Brain's profile and struggles in pursuit of who he has become today. I have so much respect for this young man, Dr Mgcini Tshawku, he's a genius, the brain and spirit Mzansi needs, more now. Seeing how he gets to the ground, fighting crime for the safety of the Jhb citizens....that's being patriotic, a display of love for this country. Its not every day in SA we have a politician who's this committed, he is for the people. WORTH my thumb in the ballot !!. I thank God that your resilience did not allow the politics of the white corporate regime destroy you....they just couldnt not touch that inner strong man in you Mgcini, on the contrary, they contributed to your quest to fight for your inner conviction...God bless you in all your endeavors...

[@traceyleemiller]

Great conversation (), thank you for this.

[@mxolisisehoole3428]

The difference between this EFF servant and a DA servant is the use of the private sector. The Dr talks about the states capacity

[@ThobelaniSthembiso]

What I have recently noticed but most if not all EFF guys is They need a thorough listening. You need put all the differences you have about them aside and lend them your ear. You will notice something special about them. Believe you these guys are wired differently.

[@aphiwemabude5031]

The next mayor of the city of Joburg

[@bongilevellem9003]

I waited for that part of COPE, because that's when I started to know about you and Sixo Gcilishe no sisi Hlengiwe.

[@godfreymalooks]

informative interview and someone who understand what he is doing

[@SenzoAtt]

MMC when you appoint ,you must also check a well qualified security officers because we are plenty and highly qualified.We have been undermined by our Government eventhough we reduce crime.We hope EFF will respect this industry and take it seriously. Most of us are well qualified but demoralize by the way we are treated by this current government, that's why we need a change.The government who will respect security Officers.

[@arnoldlawrence3465]

Viva Dr Tshwaku

[@monkimabiletsa332]

African excellence. ❤

[@bongilevellem9003]

Many of us were conflicted when we were in COPE, I remember when Terror Lekota chased the Youth Movement led by Nqaba Bhanga at the time, because we agreed with ANCYL on the issue of land.

[@jsNkutha-eu3iu]

EFF is led by intellectuals

This fighter has the late Advocate yanda Gladile demeanor......always when I listen to him, he simple reminds me of that fighter

[@Tselangwe]

Wow!!!! I know a guy who was a chemical engineer in Impala Platinum, a very good guy, and he became a drunken master in township. 😮

[@_SMWX]

Yhu

[@nomfunekonosilela3895]

In the health profession we experienced the same thing, if ever an African gets a senior position somehow they would find a way of matching them with a white person who mysteriously would end being the one recognised in that position. If you cone up with a brilliant idea it would be underplayed and be brought back as a new idea in another meeting by a white person who will take credit for that.

[@VictoriaHogana]

Good luck really ordinary South Africa n behind you like your idea s🙏🙏🇿🇦

[@SenzoAtt]

I was so excited after MMC appointed Xolani.My brother you did a profound job.Guys hope you will support him with lawyers during his trials.

[@masekonv]

The problem yotshwala among young professionals in the industrial towns is still very much alive.

[@thembapaulhlabahlaba]

Sizwe,thank you very much for giving us the Doc.One thing that disturbs is the fitness...some of your cops are so fat,they take five minutes to jump out of a vehicle😢Something needs to be done with fitness

[@Letsoalo_Maupa]

I learned a lot 😊! Thanks 2x Dr

[@menzincube4854]

That face you make when you get to know more someone more and you respect them more

[@bhekanib8260]

You have to give it to EFF for recruiting the top black talent who have a strong academic background

[@madodankabinde6552]

When comparing this to ANC cadres, it's chalk and cheese!

[@thembanimgenu190]

Yhu kwa_1 apho ukhuthuzwa ngamaphara nje just before ungena phofu uyoxela olunywe lwaphulo-mthetho. Amabanjwa anuka amakhwapha 😂😅 The issue of White schools and their influence on young black minds is well known atleast kwabo banomqaphela. I hope the good doctor won't be lost in politics because we still need an engineering Faculty at these black universities which by the way are regressing.

[@mfanakithi2002]

Yes we just don’t talk as much. We need to talk and talk more

[@SPECTRE559]

Why are we complaining as people of colour about being racially abused in businesses we never built? We have a black chemical engineer. We have the black middle class. Why not the black middle class commission the black engineer to built a post 1994 township bred version of Sasol?

Great interview. Indeed I know the late Prof Mdebuka and Dr Vabaza Xuza. I met them in my first year University of Fort Hare in 2009. I'm also a PhD holder who was aspired by them

[@jayjay6239]

The day your CIC and Helen Suzman foundation knows that jobs of security guards ,waiters and waitresses ,Petrol attendance can be done by our local people no need to replace them with cheap labor we can eventually fight crime without putting too much money on it.

[@mapiwanemasobelle5374]

EFF has never taken home affairs to court but Helen suzman has done that so I'm lost 👀
