I cried with relief the night CR won the presidency. I was wrong too. Blinded by desperation and misplaced hope. It is time we take to the streets again. The level of suffering is unlike South Africa ever experienced, to the point where it is costing life. This makes the ANC complicit to murder, as well as every citizen not taking any form of action.
I believe we all thought Cyril was the best candidate, turns out his nothing but a disappointment and the worst president we ever had, his like just sitting there and doing absolutely nothing.
Under zuma the country recorded a 1 trillion revenue never under any president but your likes are filled with hate, don't act like you loved any black president in our country 🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽
It's truly distressing that we, as citizens, have allowed the government to unleash its absolute wickedness, lawlessness & destruction without any reprisal.

zuma and family, tried to save this nation but you preferred money launderer, crumbling rand cholela, no light, high crime, enemies of USA and west. Dr D, Zuma supported phala phala report, Zuma went to prison for the Nation. Zuma sacked pravin Gordon, you brought him back to kill Eskom and SAA.

The anc has always been the problem… big business has gifted us the anc for 30 years … they have in essence caused this disaster as much as the voters poor choice
A truly quality piece of real journalism. Only the truth will set us free. This message need to get louder and travel wider at an increasing rate. We need to kick out the corrupt ANC.
Wow! When Zuma was still the President the NGO's, media, big business and people were all up in arms saying Zuma must go. Zuma later resigned and is still facing charges against him. Now things are worse than ever before and yet no one that I've mentioned has stood up against the injustices! CR17 was created by big business and now he is failing but big business is afraid of letting him go because of the uncertainty they have around the next leader. As long as we continue like this we will end up as an anarchist State!
The illicit trade made these cadres super rich and the gold; rhino and dollars leave SA and stashed in Dubai 👺 they can't even keep the water clean. People are dying😭
voted for it and should accept what it turned into over 30yrs. The people caused the very issue they complain about stupidity couldnt be any brighter...
True and those who prove to do something about it are suffering the vote of no confidence. I believe this is a curse where the enemy are now applying collateral damage. Look up, for your redemption is coming. Look at the Bigger picture. Perilous times.
We used to think the problem was Zuma , but now we know it's the ANC that's the problem. If they win the next election the country is gone. Everyone will pay the price. There is only one way to fix this and that's to make sure the ANC are not part of a coalition and not in power.
I hope everyone is enjoying this "democracy" ... where we can all suffer equally ne. History doesn't lie much, and we are seeing it in action ... AGAIN
Your comment implies that you miss the time when you were treated as superior to others, but you are confused as to why other people don't think of the time as fondly as you do. It also implies that the only way we can be efficient and economical as a country is by discriminating against the majority of the population.
The ANC don't have any credible person to replace Ramaphosa. The ANC's focus is to safe themselve not South Africa. We need an all African political party which includes all South Africans. A party which is not East or West Sided, a party which have South Africa interest at heart.
Africa is done with political systems invented by our colonisers and serving the interests of whites in Africa. Africa is capable of developing itself without the involvement of Europeans

Much worse than confusing foreign policy positions SA is taking an outright dangerous position… neutrality is fine but we have painted a target on our backs with recent developments.
It was only the people of Cape Town that protested against Zuma, the rest of SA supports the ANC & I understand historically why…but 30 years later it’s time to make history again
Fair enough but she’s now proven herself to be a very poor judge of character. I for one knew Cyril was a flop based purely on the organization he belongs to and the fact he had been quiet the entire Zuma looting era

A South Africans paradise for all people and races, super hospitals, police, services, housing, jobs, success, and prosperity. We could beat the West with our vast labor force and massive land and climate. We could all be happy and well-fed.
In ZIMBABWE we also feel helpless and tired. SA was our hope for Africa. The future is bleak . Rich will get richer, poor will get poorer. Thank you ANC and ZANU.

Until you understand that the Boer or Africaneers are also indigenous group of SA and they should be involved in running SA. It takes the whole Citizens to run a country not one particular race. First step to save SA is to move away from the past and look into the future. SA has many potentials from different race. "Don't vote for racial party."
To Mr Malema who washed his mouth about the US Ambassador "embarrassing our country..." : This is how the ANC has embarrassed us in the eyes of the world!!

Scorned and called him names, now what is it that you are saying, and how do you want it to be done, i mean who must initiate your proposal?
It’s difficult to trade with other countries if you unreliable. I say unreliable in the context of energy. Supply contracts are complex and global competition is high. South Africa doesn’t have anything that other countries can’t get elsewhere. This makes it even more bizarre that they chose to portrait an image that they aligned with Putin. Neutral is one thing, but all the other neutrals are silent.
I don't blame foreign investors for pulling out, we ourselves as South African citizens are scared of investing our money (whatever little we have left) into banks and policies or businesses etc. Heck, even Ramaphosa and his ministers are scared of losing all the money they steal daily and therefore were hiding it under mattresses and in JoJo tanks instead of investing it in banks. What hope do we have if They don't have hope in our system 😂
By foreign investors you mean racist white supremacists that left the country when Mandela became president...stop making up excuses they are leaving because you/they hate black people in power and their policies.

I believe that's the plan, get the white people to leave, to get black people into economic power, but it will be too late to build it up again, it's all politically motivated
We have run out of alternatives to Cyril within the ANC. Remove Ramaphosa and the.....? We no longer trust possible alternatives in the ANC. Who do we promote and support ( in an alternative party) who will have enough votes to play a meaningful role in this country's governance? EFF ?! End of private enterprise. DA?? Will they ever receive enough meaningful support?
I would support companies that take a stand against the ANC. They can use their advertising budget to campaign on billboards to ask for early elections.
Oh my gosh thank you so much Leanne for asking if she regrets the even worse dispensation she helped bring about just for selfish reasons. I love you for that!!!🥰
@@Leah-ju8ht I appreciate the assumptions thank you Leah, but yes I could well apprehend where the desire to remove President Zuma emanated from and it wasn't a tumultuous benevolent onset of philanthropy but well executed subterfuge to weaken the entire continent much like the Gaddafi execution, however, I should refrain from continental context as I doubt you could parse that complexity. The issue here is that all of Africa and by this I don't mean those who wish to exploit African resources by formenting stability, not just myself, could see that the campaign was not in the best interests of South Africa, South Africans nor Africans in general.
Honestly in Magda's case it wasn't selfishness for selfish reasons. she simply didn't understand the game of WMC ulterior motives like most of us myself included, she genuinely cares about the state of current crises. And really doesn't have much to challenge power to question their business enthics. You can tell there's a great sense of regret about Zuma's removal
@@tumelomorore7894 I appreciate that she cares about her stake being devalued, after all she is a billionaire and the current state of affairs threatens that status but she is hardly an innocent bystander. I am not even a millionaire but had the wherewithal to look into what kind of character ramaphosa was even as early as 20 years ago or 43 years ago and he is exactly what apartheid functionaries trained him to be, did Magda think she had a technique to rescind that training?? Or did she think she could grow her influence using a tool? I don't put much past billionaires, I just imagine how many have to die so one capitalist can become a billionaire.

Every Country faced with internal problems & challenges...Wish country is relevant for investors,...? While currently the US are in a serious economical challenges....(The De-dollar proses currently happening..)
What the F... k has the US got to do with this. Can't you admit that this government has messed up badly. No amount of scapegoats to cover for this useless government is going to hide that fact. One has to be really a fool to invest in this country. Not even Putin, his country has got hardly anything invested here. As you have seen one of Putins and Xis pets, Zimbabwe has been in economic collapse for a long time. How come they haven't thrown a life line and saved that country.?
Did you get a Free T Shirt Cap ,Foodparcel and the rattle of a set of keys to a RDP house built by a cANCer Regime Tendeurprineer,which will fall apart within 6 months?
Why does the ANC or anyone for that matter will want to get rid of Ramaphosa.? He's doing what everyone wants. Besides nobodies in jail, no jobs, rampant corruption, and on the verge of Anarchy. Hooray...Hah. He is so typical of an African president. I doubt the ANC could find anyone better to mess things up... Hahaa...
ANC presidents hands are tied when it comes to policy. He is dictated to by the collective which includes SACP , COSATU and the ANC factions. Cant regret supporting CR at the time the alternative was much worse with NDZ and the Guptas.
The lesson to be learned: watch what a man does/ implements , not what he promises! Immediately I heard Tumamina I new we screwed! Just look where we are?
Nothing is turning in the grave, they are stone dead, otherwise they would have risen, failing to stomach what they see happening on earth, so no turning no rising, they are seriously dead, The creator of the universe is the only one who could safe us from this satanic rulership.
The problem is that they are leaders in ANC those who are not captured, the problem is that them ANC don't want to appoint those leaders because comrades won't eat anymore from the table,there's alot that ANC are involve in terms of corruption,trafficking and drug cartels etc.
It sounds like she is implying that the previous president did things better. I wonder why we as South Africans cant move forward and look for a better future. We are always looking in the past, thinking the past was better when we know it wasn't. Rather, say, "This is not working, lets do better".
You are so right. In the dreadful days of apartheid, nothing didn't work. No electricity crisis, no cholera, low joblessness, low crime stats. No transport issues.No water shortage issues, No service delivery issues. No high inflation etc.etc. So glad apartheid is behind us now.
The biggest risk to SA on a world economic stage is its status as a democracy! The world does business with China because it is reliable - the same does not apply to SA. Great discussion. From a former South African now living in Australia
Besst interview you have ever done in my view Leanne, the hypocrisy from business and middle class is shocking, the middle class poses the greatest danger to SA inc! They cant stop stealing!!!!
Yes we will expropriate land without compensation and persue a radical economic transformation and deal decisively with white racists that still control the economy
They all rotten to the core 😢 South Africa needs a surprise Party 🙏🏼 like Gayton McKenzie PA party DA has wishy washy policies and John Steenhuisen is the only person I trust... come 2024 be need someone with an iron fist and that knows how to clean up our country even if it means standing on some peoples toes 🙏🏼👍🏼🙌🏼🕊🇿🇦🙏🏼
Thank You! They keep criticizing ANC as a whole, purely avoiding criticizing Cyril Ramaphosa. ANC can be blamed for being useless and for allowing him to continue deteriorating the country. It is the actual fact that we were hacked by this regime on State Capture. Zuma's work is tangible, Ramaphosa has none. Zuma's regime brought these: 1. University of Mpumalanga 2. Sol Plaatje University 3. Antony Lembede Mathematics, Science & Technology Academy 4. FET Collages 5. Dube Trade Port Industrial Development Zone 6. Richards Bay special Economic Zone Techno Hub 7.

Investors are not charity's they invest in countries with stable economies and capable honest leaders and governments and in so doing boost the economy and employ people unfortunately the anc has failed completely in this regard and the investors are going elsewhere
I trully regret. I was one so much hopeful. It's clear ANC has nothing to offer that can salvage this country. We need to choose the country over politics.
Next year we just vote them out, those old people have had their time. We don’t care about exile, Mandela, apartheid and other things that are not impacting us today. We want to live the best quality lives in the year 2023 not talking about Oliver Tambo and making people feel guilty for changing their votes 🗳️ against the ANC.
Apologies up front for my ignorance, just Why do we always have an import to discuss our country affairs and who participated in political “support”. Can’t they go be political in their own countries?
There should be a Business Party to stand in the next election with known successful business people who could run this country in a proper way. The present ANC members are not qualified.
Mr Badenhorst before i answer your question, tell me the country that has many political parties like SA, I'm foreseeing conflicts and bloodshed in the near future, each family is going to have its political party.

I believe that's the plan, get the white people to leave, to get black people into economic power, but it will be too late to build it up again, it's all politically motivated
Ramaphosa has been beyond shocking, to be honest.
And he will be “shocked” as usual with every news coming his way. He knows nothing about his country.
We have run out of alternatives to Cyril within the ANC. Remove Ramaphosa and the.....? We no longer trust possible alternatives in the ANC. Who do we promote and support ( in an alternative party) who will have enough votes to play a meaningful role in this country's governance? EFF ?! End of private enterprise. DA?? Will they ever receive enough meaningful support?
I agree.....voters day to happen in 2023. Amen amen amen. The sooner the better.
Tip for the ANC... You can't run a modern country with NO electricity..... It's like running a car with NO petrol.
I would support companies that take a stand against the ANC. They can use their advertising budget to campaign on billboards to ask for early elections.
Magda for president
Not ugly enough!
Don't be silly, she's white.
All WYTS are unqualified to lead South Africa for the next 1k years. they had their chance and squandered it with bad legacy.
We can see our bookings shrinking drastically.
SA has also become irrelevant for local investors who know better as well
Oh my gosh thank you so much Leanne for asking if she regrets the even worse dispensation she helped bring about just for selfish reasons. I love you for that!!!🥰
It's just sad that the enablers can just pack up and leave without being held accountable, something to meditate about.
@@Leah-ju8ht I appreciate the assumptions thank you Leah, but yes I could well apprehend where the desire to remove President Zuma emanated from and it wasn't a tumultuous benevolent onset of philanthropy but well executed subterfuge to weaken the entire continent much like the Gaddafi execution, however, I should refrain from continental context as I doubt you could parse that complexity. The issue here is that all of Africa and by this I don't mean those who wish to exploit African resources by formenting stability, not just myself, could see that the campaign was not in the best interests of South Africa, South Africans nor Africans in general.
Honestly in Magda's case it wasn't selfishness for selfish reasons. she simply didn't understand the game of WMC ulterior motives like most of us myself included, she genuinely cares about the state of current crises. And really doesn't have much to challenge power to question their business enthics. You can tell there's a great sense of regret about Zuma's removal
@@tumelomorore7894 I appreciate that she cares about her stake being devalued, after all she is a billionaire and the current state of affairs threatens that status but she is hardly an innocent bystander.
I am not even a millionaire but had the wherewithal to look into what kind of character ramaphosa was even as early as 20 years ago or 43 years ago and he is exactly what apartheid functionaries trained him to be, did Magda think she had a technique to rescind that training?? Or did she think she could grow her influence using a tool? I don't put much past billionaires, I just imagine how many have to die so one capitalist can become a billionaire.

Every Country faced with internal problems & challenges...Wish country is relevant for investors,...? While currently the US are in a serious economical challenges....(The De-dollar proses currently happening..)
Its all propaganda. SA, and it's influence in Africa as well as BRICS is more relevant today that it has ever been.
This is just a war on SA because of BRICS and I am glad our leaders stand strong
What the F... k has the US got to do with this. Can't you admit that this government has messed up badly. No amount of scapegoats to cover for this useless government is going to hide that fact. One has to be really a fool to invest in this country. Not even Putin, his country has got hardly anything invested here. As you have seen one of Putins and Xis pets, Zimbabwe has been in economic collapse for a long time. How come they haven't thrown a life line and saved that country.?
Viva ANC Viva.
Did you get a Free T Shirt Cap ,Foodparcel and the rattle of a set of keys to a RDP house built by a cANCer Regime Tendeurprineer,which will fall apart within 6 months?
Viva, lol let's go. Remo rata kaofela
Why does the ANC or anyone for that matter will want to get rid of Ramaphosa.? He's doing what everyone wants. Besides nobodies in jail, no jobs, rampant corruption, and on the verge of Anarchy. Hooray...Hah. He is so typical of an African president. I doubt the ANC could find anyone better to mess things up... Hahaa...
Spot on Spot on
Only the voters can change our situation. 2024 shouldn't be even close. The voters can this
ANC presidents hands are tied when it comes to policy. He is dictated to by the collective which includes SACP , COSATU and the ANC factions.
Cant regret supporting CR at the time the alternative was much worse with NDZ and the Guptas.
You are a child if you think ANC policies are drafted by them. They are in the pocket of the WMC, e.g. Sec 25, 223, 224 and 225 of the constitution
@@CommunistRSA WMC would protect their investment, not put cholera and contaminate the water
The lesson to be learned: watch what a man does/ implements , not what he promises! Immediately I heard Tumamina I new we screwed! Just look where we are?
You could have simply said it was better in the Zuma years instead of "Downward spiral since...)🤣🤣🤣
Corruption, Crime, Incompetence = Darkness & Hopelessness.
Time to get the F outta town.
I think the Goddes of our democracy must be turning into their graves about what is happening in our country. Let us pray harder
you can pray in one hand and crap in the other, when you open your eyes after saying amen, guess what you are going to see?
Nothing is turning in the grave, they are stone dead, otherwise they would have risen, failing to stomach what they see happening on earth, so no turning no rising, they are seriously dead, The creator of the universe is the only one who could safe us from this satanic rulership.
Magda is my favorite person ever.
5:03 as Zuma once said, you will regret it😂😂
3 years and everyone see Zuma tried his best,
@@jameskillu9171 🤣🤣🤣 You're naive my friend
The problem is that they are leaders in ANC those who are not captured, the problem is that them ANC don't want to appoint those leaders because comrades won't eat anymore from the table,there's alot that ANC are involve in terms of corruption,trafficking and drug cartels etc.
It sounds like she is implying that the previous president did things better. I wonder why we as South Africans cant move forward and look for a better future. We are always looking in the past, thinking the past was better when we know it wasn't. Rather, say, "This is not working, lets do better".
You are so right. In the dreadful days of apartheid, nothing didn't work. No electricity crisis, no cholera, low joblessness, low crime stats. No transport issues.No water shortage issues, No service delivery issues. No high inflation etc.etc. So glad apartheid is behind us now.
The biggest risk to SA on a world economic stage is its status as a democracy! The world does business with China because it is reliable - the same does not apply to SA. Great discussion. From a former South African now living in Australia
One Man, One Vote was a complete disaster.
Besst interview you have ever done in my view Leanne, the hypocrisy from business and middle class is shocking, the middle class poses the greatest danger to SA inc! They cant stop stealing!!!!
We need change ASAP.
Yes we will expropriate land without compensation and persue a radical economic transformation and deal decisively with white racists that still control the economy
'Nizozisola' by President Zuma
Its a failed state, so sad to see!
They all rotten to the core 😢 South Africa needs a surprise Party 🙏🏼 like Gayton McKenzie PA party DA has wishy washy policies and John Steenhuisen is the only person I trust... come 2024 be need someone with an iron fist and that knows how to clean up our country even if it means standing on some peoples toes 🙏🏼👍🏼🙌🏼🕊🇿🇦🙏🏼
Ramaphosa has single handedly collapsed this country!
Thank You! They keep criticizing ANC as a whole, purely avoiding criticizing Cyril Ramaphosa. ANC can be blamed for being useless and for allowing him to continue deteriorating the country. It is the actual fact that we were hacked by this regime on State Capture. Zuma's work is tangible, Ramaphosa has none. Zuma's regime brought these:
1. University of Mpumalanga
2. Sol Plaatje University
3. Antony Lembede Mathematics, Science & Technology Academy
4. FET Collages
5. Dube Trade Port Industrial Development Zone
6. Richards Bay special Economic Zone Techno Hub
7. Saldanha Bay industrial Development Zone
8. Phofung Special Economic Zone
9. OR Tambo Special Economic Zone
10. N2 Gateway Housing Project
11. Lerato Park Housing Project in Kimberly
12. Aloe Ridge Capital City Housing in Pmb
13. Cornubia Integrated Human Settlement
14. Vulindlela Rural Housing Project in KwaNongoma
15. Mount Edgecombe Interchange
16. Thornhill Substation in the Eastern Cape
17. Musina Makhado Special Economic Zone in Limpopo
18. Grootvlei Power station brought back to work
19. De hoop Dam in Limpopo
20. House with electricity from mains increase from 2002's 77.1% to 2016's 80.4%. House hold electricity for cooking, from 58.0% in 2002 to 76.8% in 2016.
21. Sanitation from 62.3% in 2002 to 80.9% in 2016
22. ARV's distribution
24. NASFAS increase from 2.4 billion in 2008 to 15 billion in 2017
25. Tertiary graduates increase from 9.3% to 14.2%
And how much did state capture cost sa again??? More than half a trillion. Stop being clowns
Zuma has gone to prison for this country, Zuma sacked Pravin, Zuma has gone to court over Ramaphosa crimes, Dr. D Zuma stood up against Phala phala. You rejected him, for the cholela man
@James Killu and that gave him the right to sell resources that belong and suppose to benefit the citizens of this country to a bunch of foreign Indians. I love your way of thinking. You honestly don't see any problem with it?
5:20: - A total admission by Magda Wierzycka that removing the former President from Office was a wrong move.
Investors are not charity's they invest in countries with stable economies and capable honest leaders and governments and in so doing boost the economy and employ people unfortunately the anc has failed completely in this regard and the investors are going elsewhere
I trully regret. I was one so much hopeful. It's clear ANC has nothing to offer that can salvage this country. We need to choose the country over politics.
Next year we just vote them out, those old people have had their time. We don’t care about exile, Mandela, apartheid and other things that are not impacting us today. We want to live the best quality lives in the year 2023 not talking about Oliver Tambo and making people feel guilty for changing their votes 🗳️ against the ANC.
Yes it was naive
Alarmist
Unless these politicians learn the sequence of alphabets is ABC... and not ANC,....we are finished ......😜😜😜😜
❤❤❤
Apologies up front for my ignorance, just Why do we always have an import to discuss our country affairs and who participated in political “support”. Can’t they go be political in their own countries?
Ramaphosa should step down immediately. ANC must go
Where do we g😢o now
Disalienatieng? Where did they suck that "word " out?
There should be a Business Party to stand in the next election with known successful business people who could run this country in a proper way. The present ANC members are not qualified.
What can we do to save our country 😢
Mr Badenhorst before i answer your question, tell me the country that has many political parties like SA, I'm foreseeing conflicts and bloodshed in the near future, each family is going to have its political party.
Private investors must avoid non homgenious nations due to domestic politics
Mnxim, Uyaxoka lo, doom sayer and When is Leanne retiring and she is not even South African, It has been a while we need a new face now for this section of the news.
So is Poland.
