AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

World Cup Politics: South Africa’s Bafana Bafana finally departed for Mexico after visa chaos left assistant coach Helman Mkhalele stranded, with Sports Minister Gayton McKenzie calling it “embarrassing” and demanding heads roll at SAFA. Xenophobia & Diplomacy: Ghana issued a fresh travel advisory urging citizens to avoid non-essential travel to South Africa amid renewed xenophobic attacks, while activists filed an AU petition to remove AfCFTA SG Wamkele Mene over the issue. Impeachment Watch: Rise Mzansi’s Makashule Gana was elected chair of the Ramaphosa Section 89 impeachment committee, after UAT’s Wonderboy Mahlatsi fell short by seven votes. Governance & Courts: The ICJ granted South Africa an 18-month extension in its Israel genocide case, pushing major next steps to late 2027. Trade & Competition: The Competition Commission is set to pursue Adcock Ingram over alleged pandemic-era pricing conduct. Border Control: SARS rolled out a new traveller declaration system from 1 June, including online customs declarations and temporary import permits for foreign-registered vehicles. Economy & Cost of Living: Fuel prices adjust for June—petrol up by R1.43/litre while diesel and paraffin fall—adding pressure as households already feel the squeeze.
