My radio station

I enjoyed going to Thethafm because it was my first time. it was great to see the news readers like Mashudu! I was happy to see the radio station in and out and how they work. i was siting on a chair and was listening to a poem by Nonhlanhla and how she explained human right day! i think it was a very important day to all of us South Africans! We also took photos from Thethafm station.

POLITICIANS AND SOCIETY AGAINST VIOLENCE of WOMEN AND GIRLS

I WAS ONE OF THE FEW TEENAGERS WHO WENT TO IKHAYALETHEMBA,TO WITNESS THE GATHERING OF DIFFERENT POLITICAL PARTIES.IT WAS REALLY AMAZING TO BE AT THE SAME ROOM AS SUCH ICONS,THERE WERE ACTUALLY ALL THE CAMPAINING PARTIES THAT WANT TO CHANGE THE LIVES OF THE SOUTH AFRICANS FOR THE BETTER. TO BE QUITE FRANK SOME OF THEM WERE NOT REALLY READY FOR THE PUBLIC ANOUNCEMENTS, LIKE THE REPRESANTATIVE FOR COPE, THAT WOMAN! SHE HAS A NERVE OF SAY THAT SHE DIS NOT HAVE A RESPONSE TO THE QUESTION ABOUT WHAT HER PARTY WILL COMMIT TO REGARDING VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN.

Solutions by Politians. What about me?

Truely speaking, I enjoyed myself seing all the political members of the party where they shared their own points of views. (ACDP) ,I liked the part that she menssioned about prostitutes being removed from the streets,and providing jobs for them in order to keep them safe. The part that children who are being abused at home: the solution was that social workers could place them in houses of safety ,that's what i wanted to know because i'm also a victim of abuse at home.

be your self!

we are not used to speaking for our selves! but now we can speak out as women and girls in south africa! each and every woman has the right to, but i can`t see how it's important to vote because we vote for people who can`t make sure that we get what we have voted for?! they used to tell us that 'your vote is your voice' but they don`t allow our voice to be heard! This is why I say it is not necessary to vote! my ending is that if you vote you might get a good service.

NOT ENOUGH IS BEEN DONE

I enyoyed the debate with those different political members Well they all addressed the same thing in different perspective of course it was a debate. I feel that some points which are important were not discussed. They only talked about how they could change things if we vote for them. Why don't they start now with those changes. Every six second a woman is killed here in South Africa. What is being done to stop that, how many woman must die before they do something. What is being done for children who finished school and did not get A's.

violence

WE WENT TO THE DEBATE HERE IN JOZI,IT WAS GOOD BECAUSE THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT VIOLENCE ,FOR AN EXAMPLE TRANSPORT PROBLEMS,GIRLS WHO WERE RAPED ,AND PROSTIUTES TO FIND THEM JOBS. FOR ME THERE A LOT OF SICKNESS OUT THERE, SO IT IS BETTER WHEN THEY GET GOOD JOBS FOR THEMSELF. SOMTIMES THEY ARE ABUSED BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY ARE UNEMPLOYABLE AS THEY ARE SELLING THEIR BODIES. SOMETIMES CHILDREN TRAVEL LONG DISTANCES TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY, SO IT IS BETTER WHEN THERE IS TRANSPORT EVEN BICYCILES .

POLITICAL PARTIES ACTING AGAINST WOMEN ABUSE FOR VOTES

political parties did not comment on our behalf, they were only concerned about being voted for. They were only concerned about what the government is doing and that made me feel like they were not emotionally attached about the topic as individuals but only as members of a political party. I wish that they could speak more as individuals than as political parties. But I am glad 'cause I have learned something, especialy when I talk to Ms Nana Ngobese of "Women Forward" on issues about social development and support groups for abused women and she justified the need for this.

Women in political parties

Women in political parties I'm very angry about women in politics because: Today i went to an election debate & I felt like all those women who were there were sent to campaign for votes not to address the issues of women & violence against them, all those parties did was say "i would empower women if they vote for my party" that's it! Now you tell me, how you would trust such women? It's very much clear they were sent by men because non of the things they said were valid. I could see through them that they came to talk to us because it's time for voting.
