South African vote tallying enters final stages with ANC on 40%Vote tallying in this week’s South African parliamentary election entered the final stages on Saturday, with the governing African National Congress (ANC) set to fall well short of a majority for the first time in 30 years of democracy. With results in from over 97% of the more than 23,000 polling stations in Wednesday’s vote, the ANC stood at 40.11%, a precipitous drop from the 57.50% it secured at the last national election in 2019. Political parties’ share of the vote will determine the number of seats they get in the National Assembly, which then elects the next president. That could still be the ANC’s leader, President Cyril Ramaphosa, as the former liberation movement will remain the biggest party. But Ramaphosa will be badly weakened and is likely to face calls to quit from opposition parties and critics in the deeply-divided ANC.

Looking at the possibilities around restrictions to Ugandans |Talk Of The NationOn Talk of the Nation tonight we look at the impact of the latest raft of sanctions imposed by the UK and US, over corruption allegations. On Tuesday, the UK government imposed sanctions on Speaker Anita Among as well as former Karamoja Affairs Ministers Agnes Nandutu and Mary Goretti Kitutu over their involvement in the Karamoja iron sheets scandal. Later, the US added to this list, State Minister Amos Lugolobi and former Deputy Chief of Defence Forces, Lt Gen Peter Elwelu. But there are concerns that the actual impact of these sanctions extends beyond the individuals involved, to the country's economy. To help us appreciate the actual impact of these sanctions we turn to JOHN WALUGEMBE, Executive Director, Federation of SMEs.

(AP) – Live Nation is investigating a data breach at its Ticketmaster subsidiary, which dominates ticketing for live events in the United States. Live Nation, based in Beverly Hills, California, said in a regulatory filing Friday that on May 27 “a criminal threat actor’' offered to sell Ticketmaster data on the dark web. Live Nation and Ticketmaster did not immediately respond to requests for comment. In a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Live Nation said it was “working to mitigate risk to our users’' and was cooperating with law enforcement officials. It said the breach was unlikely to have “a material impact on our overall business operations.’’On May 23, the U.S. Justice Department sued Live Nation and Ticketmaster, accusing them of running an illegal monopoly over live events in America.

ShinyHunters, the group claiming responsibility, says the stolen data includes names, addresses, phone numbers and partial credit card details from Ticketmaster users worldwide. The hacking group is reportedly demanding a $500,000 (£400,000) ransom payment to prevent the data from being sold to other parties. The number of customers affected by the data breach has not been confirmed by Live Nation. On Friday Santander confirmed it had data from an estimated 30m customers stolen which was being sold by the same hacking group as the Ticketmaster hackers. If the data hack is as large as claimed by ShinyHunters, the hack could be the most significant breach ever in terms of numbers and the extent of the data stolen.

This lifelong Republican cast hesitant votes for Mr Trump in 2016 and 2020, but Thursday's verdict was a defining moment...eventually. Seeing Biden’s policies and the way he's conducting himself, I don't think he's got the stamina or the ability to do the job for very much longer. Honestly, I still think Trump is going to win in November. For me, I don’t know...I don't think I'll vote. People who disagree with the verdict don't believe in the justice system.
