    Great journalism always Matshidiso!
    The acting PP is teaching us something about jurisdiction and taking an apolitical stance while in that office acting or not. I can imagine the pressure to perform miracles that comes with that position and how easy it can be for one to be drawn into "politricks". She is by far doing well whether she later gets the PP job or not. her work will speak for itself instead of her being too desperate to seize the moment.

    I am glad you mentioned Jurisdiction issue. The fact of the matter is that we're talking about his money. There's one issues that we need to explore. How long or how much time in law do you need before you declare your foreign currency. Phala Phala is difficult issue.

  • @lindamanamela7998
    @lindamanamela7998 Před rokem +5

    Ramaphosa is no longer committed to his work as the Head of State. He is very much engaged and engulfed by his PhalaPhala Business. But now the HONEST question is : why is he still clinging to becoming the President of this country while we clearly see that , like he said in the past, he is at Union Building to wind time but his passion is in the Ankola. What pushes him to FORCE to be the President instead of going to look after his cattles and enjoy his billions ? What does he want to prove ? THE NATION IS BEING TRAUMATISED BECAUSE OF ONE MAN AND HIS PERSONAL BUSINESS WHICH IMPACTS NEGATIVELY ON HIS JOB AS A HEAD OF STATE. The country is lamenting based on the PRESIDENT'S CONFLICT OF INTERESTS instead of FOCUSING ON HOW TO MOVE FORWARD AS A NATION. We are very much ashamed and embarrassed by what takes place in this country. WE ARE WITNESSING GREED AT ITS BEST.

      @Linda Manamela. Friend, I doubt that he was ever "interested." In fact, as a much younger man he was "apprenticed" by BIG "WHITE" INTERNATIONAL CAPITOL. He is 'delivering".....on deals made then......and has to "deliver.' At all costs.

    I find this whole saga so very very sad - its such a sad reflection of just how evil and lawless Cyril is and all the law departments are...
    Seems their only focus is to find someone who will take the blame for his wrong doing - being in possession of undeclared foreign currency....
    If he had one iota of honesty, he'd have fallen on his sword.... Is it any small wonder why we are in this state of collapse in the country.....

    I saw this coming months ago. There was never enough involvement from the President to hold him accountable. It’s sad how many people actually think this was going to lead to anything when any logical mind can argue out of this in a matter of minutes😂😂
    This is what happens when you listen to the media and clowns like Steenhuizen & Julius and simply think words and opinions are legal precedent 😂😂😂
