The ANC’s expropriation bill is an election stunt
From 1995 to 2015, informal settlements increased by 650% and the current housing backlog has risen to 2.6 million houses. President Cyril Ramaphosa claims that the Expropriation Bill allows the government to 'expropriate land for public use, for use of our people'.
Land expropriation without compensation unjustifiable – morally and technically
During the State of Nation Address, the President of RSA Cyril Ramaphosa said the ANC plans to have a consultative public discussion to explore the merits of the ANC conference resolution on land expropriation without compensation. The ANC and South African government are certainly focused on the land reform project. In my view however, they are not thinking in the right direction.
