It seems like illegality is the new normal in SA. What a shameful display of the police force... Yet another public service going down the drain due to incompetence and corrupt officials. How can Cele & Co sleep at night?🤔
About 6 years ago, a bald elderly man who was fond of dancing in public stood on a Platform at a Stadium that had one hundred thousand people and promised his spectators, watchers and listeners from near and far of how he would make a better life for all South Africans. I think by "All" he meant the kind of existence we see in this insert.
"artisanal miners" Cartle Blanche... really... think about what you are saying... Shall we call them artisanal car jackers next? You guys do so well with retaining integrity, but that is a thin, thin line...
Artisanal miners...South Africans like myself are artisanal miners. What happens when you live next to or on a mine dump with Gold. Government and Greedy business failed to rehabilitate and deal with access control. Society needs to come together form co-ops and regulate this thing for citizens only.
Yes, even the municipal workers dig in front your house . They just leave. Not fixing. If you complain, they tell you it belongs to municipal. But we as citizens of this country try to keep our suburbs clean an neat. Municipal does nothing vto fix their mess. Very sad, we do it without help from municipal. They want us to live like scotters.let it happens where politicians live, it will be fix. We must pay rates and taxes. Have no rights. Only taxi's can do what ever they like.. . Johannesburg becoming a dump
The interesting thing is that when the mine collapse on these Zamas Zamas the state will use all resources available to save their lives. While failing to protect the tax payers homes from all the blasts happening underground.
U know when you fed up with your shoe no more polish. I think also government is fed up with Johannesburg. All those property not easy to sell them. Very sad
To legalise illegal mining or not is my question? What can we learn from the outside world? Hope Minister Bheki C, & team are watching these types of videos to understand the depth & width of the problem!
Seems like an ungovernable country or is it no more than lack of will. The SAPS comment sums it up. Not police alone and rightly so. Government needs to step up.
It's not just black people who are Zamas, it's illegal cause as we've seen in this video innocent bystanders including black people die. The colonial company was considered legal because it was authorized by the government at the time

We've saying this for years but media houses,broadcasters and politicians have been calling us xenophobic.
Govan does an excellent job as a presenter
Govan is a badass! Made a new fan
This is UNBELIEVABLE!!!
Appaling to say the least.
Mining houses, and the ANC need to be held accountable!
After 10 years it finally gets on the media. Please find who buys this gold!!
Dadas Motors. That's all I say.
@@stewarthoward2371 😂😂
Every gold exchange business in jhb buys illigal gold.
Love ❤ Carte Blanche
I suppose the police doesn't do anything because they get a kickback. Another magnificent failure due to Cele and the ANC.
And the laws of SA that grants more rights to criminals than law abiding citizens
@karlgwambe8860 100%. I wonder what's the percentage of foreigners involved in these illegal activities?
Its the comrades that buy the gold to smuggle it out.
Like Zimbabwe's Pre$dent Mmkakwa and his demon Ubert Anu$gel
It seems like illegality is the new normal in SA. What a shameful display of the police force... Yet another public service going down the drain due to incompetence and corrupt officials. How can Cele & Co sleep at night?🤔
Has our government lost hope? This is the saddest scene ever.
I wouldn't be surprised if our so called 'Government' is actually buying the gold! They are so greedy it's UNBELIEVABLE!
Search 'Gold Mafia' then you will understand why our politicians are not doing anything.
South Africa is a joke the government is allowing these people to do this😢

We are truly led by visionaries
He also seemed to have been calling for his machine gun LOLLLL

Illegal mining is an old wound which the ANC has ignored since its commencement and now we have a problem that cannot be healed!
Where is Panyaza Lesufi qho lives the limelight now - hiding, ducking and diving
Where do they get the water
Hey what locals. We don't dig old mines.
Malema's brodas 😠
nonsense
i hope someone will protect her..
That old woman can not be patrolling alone..
The community & saps must install land mines across all old mines...
They'll use the mines to mine in the mines
Govan.. you have my aporoval. 👍🏾
People must unite and buy themselves guns because no government is going to save them. These Zama-zamas are pure criminals!
a mix of locals? speaking broken zulu doesn't make you a local
Give these people licences
Well, supply is necessitated by demand!
Amongst us are hypocrites who buy from these animals.
The community is a massive contradiction itself.
There is a very simple solution to all of this. This solution is just not convenient
Govan 🔥🐐

Wow in Benoni🙊
I thought SAPS knew how to deal with miners … or is that only applicable to those seeking a raise?
The interesting thing is that when the mine collapse on these Zamas Zamas the state will use all resources available to save their lives. While failing to protect the tax payers homes from all the blasts happening underground.
Gauteng is lost! Move to Cape Town! Break up SA and let all communities go at it alone!
Pretoria is useless!
So where are the legal interventions, sap, government?
Its rough out here
Terrifying unemployment the root.
We don't owe illegal aliens jobs I.e lesotho and zimbabwe owe their citizens employment!
Gov is able to release the army to protect malls but can't release the army to protect it's own citizens 🤷🏽♂️
ANC and associates are in kahoots with these miners.
So don't live on the East Rand?
The people living there did not move in with this exsisting there...these zama zamas moved in with criminal element on peoples lives.
I'm moving to Iceland. Far away from all of these things.
Govan Whittles 💪💪
Send the Zulus
It's a shame indeed 😢
So why does the police not go and break it up?? It is illegal to be there is it not? Just like they have been into Jhb CBD the last few weeks?
RIP Derek Watts!
Bad so bad hope one day wil be over
U know when you fed up with your shoe no more polish. I think also government is fed up with Johannesburg. All those property not easy to sell them. Very sad

This Govan Character is quite popular recently
Whatttt…😱😱😱
Artisanal miners?...... next we will hear about artisanal un-alivers.
This is the result of high unemployment in S.A and in Africa
If Midian can be able to reach out to this guys, y can't they call poliçe immediately 😭
And the ANC Mis Government will not do anything to stop Zama Zamas because somehow the ANC Profit Most!
Lol, these comments are ending me 😂😂😂
Flood the mines there is a lot of mine waste to fill the holes.
No Marikana vibes here
not police alone lol. who else is gonna stop it ???
Who actually buys this gold?
start filling the mine entrances with bolders and cement. so those in there stay there!
Black people mining is called illegal, colonial company mining is legal
It's not just black people who are Zamas, it's illegal cause as we've seen in this video innocent bystanders including black people die. The colonial company was considered legal because it was authorized by the government at the time
At least they are not robbing homes everynight so stop complaining
wait until some of the hijack the houses in around there
WHO is buying this illegal gold. Go catch them!
Dadas Motors
Man those people are actually working so I don't get the hate
You are confused the day they are around your area you will feel their presence by 17 hrs you will be inside your house.
