Concerns about the borrowing of money and the need for an agrarian revolution in South Africa were raised by a speaker addressing the President. Emphasizing the importance of amending Section 25 of the constitution for land expropriation without compensation, the speaker highlighted the significance of giving every South African access to land.
The speaker advocated for the peaceful and lawful fight for this amendment, believing it will address various societal issues, including urban migration and food security. Criticizing high government spending, the speaker called for a reduction in cabinet expenses, pointing out the need for fiscal responsibility.
Additionally, the speaker proposed the reintroduction of compulsory military training to provide opportunities for unemployed youth and instill discipline. The call to prioritize land access over social grants like the R350 per month was also made, highlighting the self-sufficiency of communities engaged in subsistence farming.
