Hey, @AfricaCheck I am going fact check this of yours. I have the numbers and yes there was a mistake or two that Farmers weekly had but you have a few more yourselves. Very poor work. I will now call myself the Africacheck fact-checker. 1 https://twitter.com/AfricaCheck/status/1320274438261231616

Some other fact-checking you have done like migrants I can tell you that your expert did not read the population migrant table in the population estimates that @statsSA produces every year for example. You will need to pull up your socks. 3

The data I got from StatsSA show you have not done your homework. I also think the topics you are choosing to check and the answers you seek are clearly political. I would have check unemployment quite a few times more than the number of farmers. Why do you focus on farmers 2

just a taste from StatsSA documents on stuff you claim cannot be found.
