Stopped by to say…

1. Whilst the ruling in #IngonyamaTrust leases is receiving the attention it deserves, we must talk about how govt has failed rural based citizens for 2 decades with collusion of Parliament. To be clear, all political parties have neglected these issues.
2. It’s 13 years since the introduction of the Traditional Courts Bill (2008). Even after concerted effort by activists and researchers to work with the DOJ in the end, politicians and Chiefs sneaked in back door agreements and ignored warnings on importance of an opt clause.
3. Today, the legislative and policy vacuum remains, leaving people insecure and in some communities subjected to patriarchal and chauvinistic abuse of power, in the name of ‘our culture and tradition’, which is a distortion of African customary law, cultures and traditions.
