AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Anti-migrant protests: Thousands marched across South Africa demanding deportations of undocumented migrants, with police reporting 900+ arrests and saying 108 of 120 marches were peaceful; President Cyril Ramaphosa urged calm and warned against vigilantism as organisers vowed weekly Thursday demos for six months. Repatriations and diplomacy: South Africa’s intelligence body said more than 25,000 foreign nationals have been repatriated, while Ghana and other countries prepared further evacuation exercises; Nigeria also told returnees to document abandoned assets as Abuja negotiates with Pretoria. DA politics: DA leader Geordin Hill-Lewis says new executive appointments will “raise standards,” but the party faces fresh internal fallout after John Steenhuisen’s public criticism of Hill-Lewis. Monetary policy: SARB Governor Lesetja Kganyago warned inflation expectations are above target and signalled further rate tightening could be needed at the July 23 decision. Cost of living: Fuel prices fell for July 1, offering relief at the pumps. Local governance pressure: Civil engineers and analysts warn municipal service delivery failures will dominate the run-up to November local elections. Economy and business: Vodacom completed its expanded Safaricom stake to 55% after appeal clearance, while Tiger Brands secured 100% local orange supply for Oros. Food and jobs: The Port of Cape Town was flagged as a major bottleneck for fruit exports, with industry estimating billions in logistics losses.
