Duba defiant amid Chiefs criticism
The Star
|September 05, 2025
WANDILE Duba always wears his heart on his sleeve whenever he takes the field for Kaizer Chiefs - something that has made him both a hero and a villain at the same time.
Duba burst onto the professional scene at the Glamour Boys two seasons ago, scoring a peach of a goal on debut against Golden Arrows in the league.
The 21-year-old showed his bravery in the post-match press conference, warning rivals Orlando Pirates that he was coming for them in the next game. Alas, he didn’t start the game. But it was clear that Duba was fearless despite his tender age.
Last season, he was back at it. He scored the equaliser in the 2-1 win over Mamelodi Sundowns in the Nedbank Cup semifinal and walked away with the Player of the Match award.
In his pre-match media duties, he showed his confident side again, declaring: “Niyothi Ngasho Ukuthi iNedbank Cup Siyayithatha” (You'll remember my words: we are taking the Nedbank Cup). His words came true as Chiefs won the competition, beating rivals Pirates in the final to end their 10-year drought.

South Africa's G20 moment must continue beyond November
WHEN South Africa took on the G20 Presidency, it was more than just a ceremonial milestone. It marked a quiet yet significant moment in history - the first time an African country would set the tone, shape the agenda, and guide discussions in the world’s most influential economic forum. For South Africans, used to a global narrative that often talks about Africa rather than to or with it, this was a rare and overdue shift. However, as the year comes to an end, a lingering concern remains: will the Presidency be remembered only as a November headline, or will it serve as the start of a lasting economic effort with real effects on the lives of South Africans and our regional neighbours?

Four global initiatives align with Africa's future
When I first visited Beijing 17 years ago, I was awestruck by the infrastructure. It was not development for its own sake; it was a living statement of a country convinced that progress is a collective good; the zeitgeist of the leap forward. Years later, standing before the African Union headquarters in Addis Ababa, built with Chinese support, I can see the same conviction: that nations can rise together, not through rivalry but through partnership grounded in solidarity and mutual respect.
