Reports from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) refute President Cyril Ramaphosa’s claims that “past racist policies are to blame for South Africa’s poor economic growth and that black economic empowerment (BEE) is solving the problem.”

South Africa was ranked last of 49 countries in a recent IMF study of competition friendly economies. It said, “SA is one of the most challenging countries in which to do business, citing onerous regulations (like BEE) that acts as a handbrake on economic growth.”

Stats SA warned, “unemployment has become an even more critical issue in SA as youth unemployment reached an alarming 46,1% in the first quarter of 2025.” Despite these dire warnings, Ramaphosa clings to his BEE delusions to enrich a few to the detriment of many.

Ramaphosa’s weak and indecisive leadership created an environment for corruption, theft, fraud and mismanagement to thrive. This scenario benefits a few politically connected individuals while tens of millions of poor and desperate citizens struggle to survive.

I joined a group of legal professionals that established the NGO, “Rescue SA Civil Rights Alliance” to identify and prosecute crimes against humanity by the ANC led government. The new NGO will act to hold the ANC accountable in both local and international courts.

The ANC failed in its constitutional obligations to citizens causing hardship and misery for millions. ANC facilitated corruption and crumbling infrastructure have consigned millions of citizens to suffer in inhumane conditions while ANC cadre’s live in opulent luxury.

The Free State High Court dissolved the Ngwathe Municipality citing years of failure to provide service delivery as well as financial mismanagement. The ANC’s policy of cadre deployment is the direct cause of ANC led municipalities collapsing across the country.

FPI is working with its allies to stop the foreign influenced agenda to legalise the entire sex-industry in SA. This policy will be devastating to vulnerable women and children. We are also leading the fight to stop the sexualization of children in public schools via CSE.

FPI is spearheading efforts to defeat the agenda to redefine man, woman marriage in the gender-neutral “Marriage Bill.” The ANC’s assault on marriage and family is the greatest threat to social stability & prosperity. The world is in crisis because marriage is devalued.

I serve on the Advisory Board of “Stop Demographic Winter,” a movement that warns governments about the existential threat of plummeting (marriage) birth rates. Please sign this Petition calling for a Presidential Commission to investigate declining fertility rates.

I plan to travel to the US in the second half of the year to meet with FPI’s international allies. We hope to secure co-sponsor funding for the planned “ACPF Pan-African Conference on Family Values” in Cape Town in 2027. This event promises to be the largest gathering of prominent African and international pro-family leaders in SA’s democracy.

FPI has a packed program for the rest of this year. Our work to defend and protect faith, family and freedom in SA is critical. However, we cannot do what we do without your prayers and financial partnership in this ministry. Please stand with FPI in this vital task.
