South Africa’s 2025 Pay Uproar: 4,1 % for Politicians, 100 % Anger on the Street

22 December 2025 by CapeTownNewsReader

South Africa is fuming! Politicians are getting a 4.1% pay raise, meaning President Ramaphosa gets an extra R137,000 this year, while everyday South Africans struggle with high food prices. This huge difference in pay, called “ratio outrage,” is making people incredibly angry. They can’t believe their leaders are getting so much more when child support grants barely go up. It’s causing a big fight between the government and its people.
