What's making headlines in SA?
Acumen Media has released its analysis of the week's biggest stories in South African media.
The Public Protector is still hogging the headlines for several reasons including her legal costs and the crowd-funding story; her new attack on the South African Revenue Service (Sars); her spat with Pravin Gordhan; and the mounting calls for her removal from citizen activism organisations and others.
Hoping that the taxpayers would keep its lights on, power utility Eskom's R50bn has the country and rating agencies baffled. Elsewhere, the Estina Dairy Farm testimony continued at the State Capture Inquiry.
It seems social media users are upset that Economic Freedom Fights leader Julius Malema is ordering around the 'people's bae' Mbuyiseni Ndlozi. Meanwhile, Derek Hanekom is still on the receiving end of the EFF's wrath regarding former president Jacob Zuma.
I need 1 Friend just like Mbuyiseni Ndlozi. He really knows how to take order no questions asked. ??????????? pic.twitter.com/thOfMhmYeU
