AwodwaGyanOniwe: SA service delivery 'no failure': SAIRR
4
21 September 2012
President Jacob Zuma is quite correct to defend the success of the government's service delivery efforts, according to the South African Institute of Race Relations.
Addressing a South African Local Government Association conference in Johannesburg recently, Zuma said that "no country could have produced the delivery we produced in the last 18 years".
The institute's deputy CEO, Frans Cronje, said in a statement last week that a "myth has taken hold in South Africa that service delivery was a failure. However, research we have published over the past several years suggests that this is not the case."
Data published by the institute - an independent think-tank producing research, policy critiques and risk analysis on South Africa - shows that between 1996 and 2010:
The number of South African households living in formal houses increased from 5.8-million to 11-million or by 89.9%. Over the same period the proportion of all households living in a formal house increased from 64% to 76%.
The number of South African households with access to electricity increased from 5.2-million to 11.9-million or by 127.9%, while the proportion of all households with access to electricity increased from 58% to 83%.
The number of South African households with access to piped water increased from 7.2-million to 12.7-million or by 76.6%. The proportion with access to piped water increased from 80% to 89%.
"Increases of a similar magnitude are true for all 15 service delivery indicators tracked by the institute," Cronje said.
"These improvements are corroborated by Living Standard Measure [LSM] improvements, which show equally dramatic improvements in the number and proportion of people in higher living standard brackets.
"Together with increased access to social welfare, which now reaches over 15-million people, service delivery successes are responsible for the fact that the proportion of South Africans living on less than US$2/day has declined from 12% in 1994, and a peak of 17% in 2002, to just 5% today."
Regarding service delivery protests, Cronje said that there was "no contradiction between the successes we identify and the protests that are now commonplace around the country.
"These protests are not a function of the failure of delivery but rather of its success, in that this success has raised expectations that cannot be met because of shortcomings in the school system and the labour market."
Cronje said that while the ruling African National Congress (ANC) was not perfect, and while it could be debated whether state-led delivery was the best development model for a country to follow, "the data we have published is unambiguous that the ANC and the government it leads deserves considerably more credit for improving the living standards of poor and black South Africans than it has received."

AwodwaGyanOniwe: @Mudfaces
As we speak 112million people in Naija live below $1 a day. Over 80 million or half of Nigerias population live in RURAL AREAS/VILLAGE boys(where theres poor roads,no electricity,poor education etc..). Am sure this makes ya'll feel better heyPOOR GIANTS wanna be. Their HDI index is still low... In HIV AIDS a research by a Nigerian Prof in UCT and Indian research institute shows Nigeria and India will overtake SA in HIV AIDS by 2016 onwards.
Pls ask me to bring this source I pity you. Because your kind no longer exist on this planet. I wonder the objective or what you tend to achieve with all these jibberish post of yours. That place you stays or rather that you country, does it in anyway feed Nigeria/Nigerians? Have Nigerian Government approached your government and request for monetary assistance or otherwise? Have any Nigerian citizen approached you and begged for your assistance? Why does it pain you so much whenever you heard about Nigeria? The earlier you understand that no matter how you feel or whatever you do, NIGERIA will always exist,and there's nothing you can do about it.. Come 2013, NIGERIA will surprise the likes of you and the world in general. God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1 Like |

scipher: The report, prepared for the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) by the Idasa Institute for Democracy in Africa, notes that while South Africa is considered an upper middle-income country based on GDP per capita. But there is extreme income inequality and deep poverty is widespread.
Your country has a very high, and alarming, rate of unemployment with low entrepreneurship spirit among youths compared to Nigeria. I've seen this with my eyes, as long as you're trapped in that shiit hole called SA and rely on online propaganda stats, all you've posted is hogwash! and FYI: there are more millionaires (in numbers) in Nigeria than any country on this continent. go figure! SA ranks no7 in the world in crime... that says a lot as regards unemployment and poverty |

A lot of people are in poverty because they assumed the same polithievescians that bought their votes (with food items, okada , campaign vehicles, cash gifts etc)will then move the country forward .
The same people living in poor conditions will criticize the govt. and end up sleeping over it ,without any positive move . the nation is being torn apart by this same politicians who are nothing but power greedy Nigerians that have all decided to hold the people on ransom and amass as much wealth as possible . these beasts are so ignorant that they invest all their loots abroad(EU,ASIA,AUSTRALIA,- the USA&UK are currently kicking against their investments)
How will Nigeria develop when our wealth is being used in several other countries ?
How can poverty be eradicated when our people lack basic facilities to improve themselves ?
What will the future of our kids be in a society that does not provide social security?quality education? free&fair elections?employment?basic infrastructures? social amenities?
Someone said the north is pulling us backwards, but from that statement , you can tell that the country people are en-robed in tribalism which will pull down unity and that happens to be the present state of Nigeria, the people are turning against each other , putting blames on one another, pointing fingers and promoting religious crisis (it is gradually building into a civil war because it might be too late by the time it dawns on everyone)
This economic position does not mean that poverty will be elevated by the given year but that the country will make more money and be economically stable just for our politicians and their collaborators to steal more money . the western world is gaining a lot from our corrupt system so they will never do anything positive to stop it .
Nigerians, wake up and stop fighting each other , let us join hands together( no matter your tribe ) and work towards creating a good society that will condemn evil and promote good . let us appreciate each other and reject tribalism,discrimination,greed and corruption . We can all put our grievances aside and do things right once more, we have done it before and we can do it again.
I support One Nigeria and you ?. One nigeria is a joke. One nigeria was structured and programmed to fail. |

AwodwaGyanOniwe: To Sheyi my YORUBA friend Nigeria will still be behind to SA in many things. South Africa has the highest number of tarred roads in Africa(even low income areas are tarred with running water and electricity). While half of Nigerias population live in RURAL AREAS where water is still fetched from rivers and dams with no electricity.
WELL BEING OF ALL CITIZENS IS CELEBRATEDsmiley
Data published by the institute - an independent think-tank producing research, policy critiques and risk analysis on South Africa - shows that between 1996 and 2010:
The number of South African households living in formal houses increased from 5.8-million to 11-million or by 89.9%. Over the same period the proportion of all households living in a formal house increased from 64% to 76%.
The number of South African households with access to electricity increased from 5.2-million to 11.9-million or by 127.9%, while the proportion of all households with access to electricity increased from 58% to 83%.
The number of South African households with access to piped water increased from 7.2-million to 12.7-million or by 76.6%. The proportion with access to piped water increased from 80% to 89%.
"Increases of a similar magnitude are true for all 15 service delivery indicators tracked by the institute," Cronje said.
"These improvements are corroborated by Living Standard Measure [LSM] improvements, which show equally dramatic improvements in the number and proportion of people in higher living standard brackets.
"Together with increased access to social welfare, which now reaches over 15-million people, service delivery successes are responsible for the fact that the proportion of South Africans living on less than US$2/day has declined from 12% in 1994, and a peak of 17% in 2002, to just 5% today."
Regarding service delivery protests, Cronje said that there was "no contradiction between the successes we identify and the protests that are now commonplace around the country.
"These protests are not a function of the failure of delivery but rather of its success, in that this success has raised expectations that cannot be met because of shortcomings in the school system and the labour market."
Cronje said that while the ruling African National Congress (ANC) was not perfect, and while it could be debated whether state-led delivery was the best development model for a country to follow, "the data we have published is unambiguous that the ANC and the government it leads deserves considerably more credit for improving the living standards of poor and black South Africans than it has received."

White South Africans like their 1st world cousins are dying out(Maggie Thatchers generation), half of the white population is OLD.
Number of whites in steady decline

The number of white South Africans will decrease by eight percent by 2025, according to a report by the SA Institute of Race Relations.
And by 2015, coloured South Africans will be the next largest race group in the country after Africans.
By 2040, there will be 20 percent fewer white South Africans than in 2010.
“The decline in the white and Indian populations is attributed to a combination of low fertility rates and higher emigration rates. the white population group has emigrated on a larger scale than other race groups, although a slowdown is foreseen,” according to the report authored by Thuthukani Ndebele.
“The African and coloured population groups are predicted to increase at a slower rate, largely because of HIV-Aids and declining fertility rates.”
The report was based on findings of a 2008 Actuarial Society of South Africa project, among others.
It found that HIV-Aids had a major effect on the structure of the African component of the South African population.
The marked decrease of the African population in the 35-39 age group is explained by the high prevalence rate of HIV-Aids in this group.
A decrease is also apparent in the white population in the 24-35 age groups, attributed to the high rate of emigration of white people of working age.
The greater numbers of elderly white people was due to better access to private health care, less poverty, and a higher standard of living.
The coloured population, although relatively stable, had a higher mortality rate in the 15-24 age group. - Cape Times |
