    Feb 14 2026
    This week on WAW #PoliTricks, the heat is on. We unpack: • SONA predictions – What will President Ramaphosa prioritise, and what will he avoid? • Paul O’Sullivan and the question of “infiltration” vs accountability • Decision reversals at the NPA – strategy, pressure, or institutional wobble? • Another witness linked to the Madlanga developments dies – coincidence or cause for concern? • Did Cat Matlala mislead Parliament under oath about SAPS funding allegations? • South Africa officially withdraws from MONUSCO – strategic reset or regional retreat? Is this reform, political maneuvering, or signs of deeper instability inside key institutions? Join the conversation. Thank you for watching, please subscribe to support the channel.

    This week on WAW! What A Week, DJ Fresh sits down with one of South Africa’s most respected broadcasters — DJ Sabby — for one of his most honest conversations yet. In Episode 285, Sabby opens up about the chapters people don’t always see: • The painful personal battles behind the public success • Navigating the pressure of broadcasting in a competitive industry • What success really cost him — and what failure taught him • Fatherhood and the responsibility of healing so your children don’t inherit your trauma • Hitting emotional rock bottom — and finding the strength to choose life and purpose This is not just a radio story. It’s a human story. Sabby speaks candidly about mental health, identity, pride, faith, ego, and rebuilding when everything feels like it’s falling apart. For anyone chasing success, carrying silent pain, or trying to be better for their kids — this conversation will hit home. If you’re part of the #PoliTricks and #WAW family, you know we keep it real. This one is vulnerable, reflective, and necessary. Watch. Share. Start the conversation. Drop your thoughts below. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to a trusted person or local mental health support service. You are not alone.

    This episode of WAW Politricks dives into a heavy week of political pressure, legal drama, and international tension — from explosive committee confrontations to global allegations and South Africa stepping onto a new diplomatic stage. In this episode, we unpack: • The Madlanga Commission developments involving Witness E and Gen Senona, while the Ad Hoc Committee finds itself at loggerheads with Paul O’Sullivan and Brown Mogotsi — raising questions about authority, accountability, and cooperation. • The Iran-naval saga — with an inquest reportedly to be headed by Justice Bernard Ngoepe, as scrutiny intensifies around decision-making, military discipline, and foreign engagements. • Inside the ANC: a formal warning to members against early lobbying ahead of leadership races, questions around Joburg ballots allegedly found at a private residence, and growing uncertainty over Dada Morero’s future as Mayor of Johannesburg. • Global politics collide with diplomacy: allegations around US bio-weapons activity in Venezuela, alongside South Africa scoring another major international win by hosting Spring Davos, placing the country back in the global economic spotlight. No spin. No shortcuts. Just context, consequence, and the uncomfortable questions. WAW Politricks — because silence is also a political act.

    This week on WAW Politricks, we unpack the stories shaping power, accountability, and public silence — locally and globally. From the chaos in our schools to questions around military authority, parliamentary oversight, party politics, and global political theatre, we ask the questions many are avoiding. In this episode: • The deepening education crisis — school admissions under strain, scholar transport failures, and the unequal burden on parents and learners. • SANDF under the spotlight — defiance or insubordination? Who truly speaks for the South African National Defence Force in international engagements, and where does civilian oversight begin and end? • The Ad Hoc Committee and the increasingly evasive Robert McBride — accountability questioned, transparency tested. • The country’s silence around Dr Deon George’s allegations involving the Democratic Alliance, agriculture, and farming — why so quiet, and who benefits? • Donald Trump at Davos — policy, performance, or political DJ set for the global elite? No spin. No shortcuts. Just context, clarity, and hard questions. 🔔 Subscribe for weekly deep dives 💬 Join the conversation in the comments 📌 Like & share if accountability still matters WAW Politricks — context over comfort.

    WAW! WHAT A WEEK | POLITRICKS Power, politics, and perception — unpacked. This week on WAW! What a Week – Politricks, DJ Fresh and Botsang break down the stories shaping South Africa’s political moment and its place in a fast-changing global order. We unpack the ANC’s birthday statement, the Limpopo floods, and President Cyril Ramaphosa’s visit to affected communities. Parliament’s Ad-Hoc Committee resumes its work, with senior police figures once again under scrutiny. What does accountability look like when law enforcement itself is in the dock? We also take a hard look at the Matric Class of 2025. With record pass rates celebrated nationwide, are we producing future-ready graduates — or masking deeper systemic challenges? On the international front: South Africa calls for calm and dialogue amid protests in Iran — but what triggered the unrest? Reactions pour in locally and globally following BRICS naval exercises involving South Africa As always, Politricks goes beyond headlines — connecting dots, challenging narratives, and asking the uncomfortable questions that matter. 📌 Subscribe for weekly political analysis 📌 Join the conversation in the comments 📌 New episodes every week Thank you for watching, please subscribe to support the channel.

    2025 was anything but ordinary. In this PoliTricks year-end special, we unpack the defining political moments that shaped South Africa and the continent — from Justice Madlanga’s pre-report to the President, to Trump’s G20 ban on SA, Kenyan citizens choosing self-deportation, and the ongoing legal and political battles surrounding Shamila Batohi and Jacob Zuma. This is not just a recap — it’s a reflection on power, accountability, and the cost of politics on ordinary people. Thank you for watching, please subscribe to support the channel.
