March 2025 News Highlights: Politics Stir and Football Thrills
March 2025 served up plenty of buzz at South Africa Buzz News. Politics got heated with the Senate pushing back against a court order involving Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza's impeachment. It’s a big deal because the debate isn’t just about one person—it’s about who has the power in these decisions. The Senate argues that the court stepped over its role, while Mwangaza claims that her dismissal wasn’t done by the rules. This legal tug-of-war even saw a court disruption and a voter getting arrested, showing how tense things have become.
Switching gears to the sports field, the football scene in March was just as exciting. Bristol City pulled off a late comeback at Ashton Gate, snatching a 2-1 win against Middlesbrough. Those two late goals by George Earthy weren’t just points on the board—they kept Bristol City’s hopes alive for making it to the Championship play-offs. The match shows how crucial timing and smart substitutions can change the whole game.
Arsenal’s Setback and What It Means
Meanwhile, Arsenal fans had to swallow a tough loss. Their first home defeat of the season to West Ham wasn’t just a scoreline; it ended a strong unbeaten streak and dimmed their chances to catch Liverpool at the Premier League top. Jarrod Bowen’s goal was a sharp reminder that even good teams have off days, and Arsenal’s dropped points could cost them later if they can’t bounce back fast.
