The country's job crisis is worsening. Figures released by Statistics South Africa yesterday revealed that unemployment increased to 27-point-five-percent in the third quarter. The figure jumped from 27-point-two-percent in the second quarter. Stats SA says young people are the hardest. Officials say the youth joblessness rate now sits at 52-point-eight-percent.)) To unpack this, the DA Youth's Luyolo Mphithi joins me in our Johannesburg studio. And from our Durban studio, we’re joined by the ANC Youth League's Mlondi Mkhize. And the EFF's Peter Keetse joins us on the line from Johannesburg.
