ZANEWS & HAYIBO.com 2011 Elections Special

18 May 2011 - South Africa's Municipal Elections. This special is a first of its kind - debate, analysis, drama and laughs. We hope you watched, voted and are going to hold your politicians accountable for keeping all their campaign promises!

Who really pulls the strings in a democracy? You, of course! So, as you and your fellow puppet-masters prepare to make your X to remind the dummies who's in charge, it's time for another team of dummies to keep you up to date with all the issues...

In a first-of-its-kind production, South Africa's favourite satirists form a comedy coalition to bring you Election Special 2011.

Hosted by Zanews anchor Tim Modise and Hayibo.com analyst Brooklax Mpundu, this special one-off broadcast is a lineup of all the usual suspects, also featuring a look at Julius Malema's 4,000-year history in the struggle, special election messages from your elected officials (and Blade Nzimande, who's never contested an election, but it sure beats working), plus the first ever no-holds-barred debate between the heavyweight contenders, Jacob 'Who's Your Daddy' Zuma and Helen 'Who Da Man' Zille.

Forget service delivery (after all, the ruling party did that years ago): in 2011, vote for satire!
Brought you by ZANews.co.za and Hayibo.com. Because here we can... Break news, that is, into lots of little pieces...
