Arrr, matey! Those scallywags be bellowin’ that the South African land grab scheme be a right menace to private booty! With the cap’n givin’ it the ol' thumbs up, the rum-soaked ruckus be risin' like a stormy tide! Avast, me hearties, keep yer treasures close!
Avast ye landlubbers! In a latest twist o’ fate on the high seas of governance, President Cyril Ramaphosa o’ South Africa has signed a bill that be makin’ it possible fer the government to seize land without coughin’ up a single doubloon in compensation! Arrr, some scallywags in the ranks be claimin’ this be a threat to private ownership, akin to a pirate stealin' a ship without payin' a share o’ treasure!This newfangled law be settin’ sail to replace the ancient Expropriation Act from back in '75, and it lays out the terms fer takin' land, like a pirate settin’ his sails fer plunder. The ANC, Ramaphosa’s crew, be celebratin’ this as a grand milestone, but a few of the shipmates be shakin’ their heads and ponderin’ if the law be lawful at all!
With the majority of the land owned by the White minority, the law aims to level the seas, makin’ it “just and equitable” to claim land that be idle or a hazard, though it can’t just be a random grab! The critics be readyin’ their cannons, declarin’ they’ll fight ‘til the bitter end, arguin’ the process was as crooked as a pirate's compass. Yarr, 'tis a storm brewin’ on the horizon!
