Credit: SABC News Twitter Screenshot Apartheid was never truly abolished in South Africa, the races were just reversed. One could even argue it is worse today.

The official overseeing the talks, Johan Remkes, said there was "grave crisis of confidence" between the farmers and the government of...

Eskom’s warning that the country was threatened by months of rotating blackouts became a reality in less than 24 hours.

By Thursday, Eskom announced it was cutting 1GW from the grid. It doubled that amount on Friday in an outage that’s scheduled to last 13 hours. For...

South Africa's state-owned Land Bank said on Monday a plan to allow the state to seize land without compensation could trigger defaults that could cost the government 41 billion rand ($2.8 billion) if the bank's rights as a creditor are not protected.

Q: What is FF+ doing currently to achieve independence or autonomy for Afrikaners? A: Firstly, we are building the party in terms of organisation and members. The party is slowly becoming the only party in the country, and the world, who speaks on behalf of all the Afrikaners in the world.
