“Zuma’s Empire or South Africa’s Future?” – Former MKP Member Doesn’t Hold Back By Noko Mabofa Maleka | Insight Jozi News In a startling but unsurprising interview that aired recently, a former member of the MK Party laid it bare: Jacob Zuma, once revered as a man of the people, has allegedly betrayed both his most loyal allies and the very public he claims to fight for. The accusation? That Zuma is less interested in rebuilding South Africa and more obsessed with erecting a family empire—brick by brick, at the expense of public trust and national progress. The former MKP member, clearly disillusioned, spoke not from bitterness but from the heavy clarity of someone who’s seen the inside of a political machine veer off course. "We thought we were building a movement. Turns out we were building a monument—to Zuma's family." Let that sink in. This is not just political theatre. This is a hard look at a party that rose with the promise of radical reform but has since se...

 Insight Jozi News By Noko Maleka Senzo Mchunu’s Future as Minister of Police Is in the Hands of Cupcake (Cyril Ramaphosa) Johannesburg — Fellow South Africans, all eyes are on President Cyril Ramaphosa — or as he’s sometimes affectionately or mockingly called, “Cupcake” — as the country braces for a highly anticipated national address scheduled for Sunday, 13 July at 7pm. The “family meeting” comes amid mounting pressure and public scrutiny following explosive allegations linking Police Minister Senzo Mchunu, senior SAPS leadership, and politically connected figures to a criminal syndicate with ties to drug cartels. The dramatic turn of events was sparked by a bombshell media briefing held on 6 July by KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, who accused Minister Mchunu of executive overreach, going so far as to suggest that Mchunu deliberately shut down a high-level task team investigating organised crime. The Commissioner did not hold back — his r...

  South Africa has been sold a lie of freedom—a meticulously crafted illusion by the architects of apartheid. The release of Nelson Mandela, once heralded as the dawn of liberation, was a calculated move by a cunning apartheid regime. Mandela was paraded globally, not as a symbol of true emancipation but as a puppet of a more sophisticated system of oppression. The apartheid government knew their crimes. And  brutality was unsustainable in the face of growing international scrutiny. They needed a new strategy—a subtler form of control that would maintain their grip on economic power while pacifying the masses with the illusion of democracy. This strategy was executed with surgical precision. Mandela, the revered revolutionary, was systematically groomed and manipulated during his post-release world tours. By 1992, he stood at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, delivering a speech that was a far cry from his earlier socialist ideals. Overnight, the African Nationa...

Chris Hani Was a Sacrificial Lamb to the Illusion of Freedom Post-Apartheid By Noko Mabofa Maleka | Insight Jozi News In a democracy built on the graves of giants, it is perhaps the most bitter irony that justice still eludes the very people who paid the highest price for it. The recent release of Janusz Waluś, the convicted murderer of struggle icon Chris Hani, has left an open wound in the heart of South Africa — one that Limpho Hani, widow of the slain hero, refuses to let be glossed over. In a video that has been quietly swept under the carpet by mainstream media, Limpho Hani delivers an impassioned, heartbreaking address, denouncing the decision by the Constitutional Court to grant parole to her husband’s killer. It is more than the sorrow of a widow — it is a thunderous cry of betrayal, directed at a justice system she once believed in. "Chris was sacrificed to keep the illusion of peace alive… to sell us a dream of freedom that we never truly received," she laments, he...
