AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Immigration Flashpoint in Durban: ANC KZN demanded an urgent, multi-sector response after chaotic scenes around the Diakonia centre, with the SA Human Rights Commission warning that violence and intimidation against foreign nationals are an assault on constitutional values. Cost-of-Living Pressure: The rand slipped as investors weighed US-Iran talks and a fuel-driven inflation spike, while Treasury’s fuel levy relief is being unwound—petrol and diesel prices surged, raising rate-hike odds. Labour Reform at the Front: Gig workers say they’re still “barely employed” without contracts or protections, as landmark labour reforms move closer. Justice System Strain: Parliament heard prisons are at 58% overcrowding, with tens of thousands still on remand. Local Governance & Power: ANC opened mayoral nomination processes in metros, while Eskom debt and service delivery worries keep resurfacing. Sports & Tech: Cape Town Marathon Expo kicks off today, and Apple Sports expands in South Africa ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
