As Africans, we reject the notion of coincidence. Recent incidents, including food poisoning in the Eastern Cape and Gauteng, as well as multiple violent attacks, raise concerns. We call upon the government to prioritise job creation by safeguarding vulnerable communities and critical national infrastructure. The people are the nation's greatest asset.

All they do is to visit the families and talk, no policies, change of laws, enforcement, no nothing.

This guy is a bigger liar, his junior B Cele. They can come make empty promises on national TV after the funeral they will be missing in action. Naledi residents must not take that promise to heart because they will be disappointed.

Nami bengicabanga kanjal...empty promises😢

[@Cent51]

They always do this, I feel like it is just for show and politics, the issue of spaza shops and quality control has been an issue for years, it nothing new -

[@Thatotherguy803]

Is this guy looking to take over Bheki Cele job? Is the minister of condolences position still available?

Lies and promises of the anc.

How come the owner of the shop will poison their own customers. People shouldn't jump into accusing the spaza shop owners as they don't make that snacks or biscuits they are buying this things from the wholesalers and the wholesaler also buy it from the wholesale who does pruduce this snacks

[@Linds-qh6qs]

This people have their own factories and wholesalers.just under our nose here in South African Some of the packaging is in different colours e.g their bicarbonate of soda packet is yellow or orange instead of the blue one that is manufactured here in Mzansi to name a few. Before the spaza shops this never happened now you

[@Seeta_sa_gauta]

The problem is at the factories.

[@WigglebiggleShortOFF]

What factories? If you have this level of information why not assist the police?

[@Linds-qh6qs]

They sell expired food and always protected by expects and we are called xenophobic.they don’t buy from our wholesales like Jumbo etc they have their own they call them cash n carry name taken from the original cash and carry

[@paulisidore6639]

Dirty factories and Fong Kong things are sold to people in the township and why is the government not regulating all this tuckshop business?
