AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Local Elections & Women’s Power: Ahead of the 4 November 2026 local government elections, commentary marks the 70th anniversary of the 1956 Women’s March and argues women’s participation will be decisive for real change beyond voting. Public Safety: Government condemned the killing of two anti-gang officers in Reiger Park, saying gangs will not be allowed to undermine law enforcement and urging community help for arrests. Education & Capacity: The World Bank warns Eswatini faces a reading crisis, while South Africa coverage highlights principals’ burnout from red tape and a push for a “skills revolution” to improve practical training. Corruption & Justice: The Madlanga commission is framed as showing how corruption can be beaten, as the Mapisa-Nqakula defence case continues with contradictions over alleged bribes and defence contracts. Governance & Services: The DA says it will expand private-sector delivery of municipal services like water and electricity if it wins more councils. Health: Bulawayo reports five flu deaths at Mpilo Central Hospital, with doctors saying it’s not linked to a new Covid strain. Sports Politics: Springboks edge Argentina 17-10, but captain Siya Kolisi is a hamstring doubt for the New Zealand Tests.
