I want to take this opportunity to appreciate and pay heed toward Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh. Great job as always
Sizwe. Can you bring Moeletsi Mbeki. To talk about SA economic history and what should happen from 2024 going forward. ❤❤
That's a great idea alex
That one is always putting the blame on the black elite who we all agree are a problem, yet we all know where the root of the problem is and he fails to articulate that while concentrating on the black bourgeoisie.
Why not both Zuma and Mbeki TOGETHER
His a bitter economist. Very confusing individual that 1. 🤣
Correct both can work together with ❤❤❤❤❤
The president Mbeki and deputy president Zuma era was for real the golden era in South Africa.
The true take over of blacks from whites regime
True, this was really a golden era were two old political friends worked together, everything flourished and went quet well, until the white man very cunningly intervened using one of the most dangerous figure that hates his fellow Safricans with passion and continues the agenda of the enemy, and now ALL SOUTH AFRICANS ARE DYING FROM HUNGER, AND RENDERED THE WHOLE SAFRICA A DEN OF ALL SORTS OF CRIMINALITY, CRY AFRICA CRY 😭😭😭
This is the decolonization of education, I'm talking about. We are not saying we don't want to learn about WW2 etc., but to Southern Africans especially, these lessons are of the essence. Tanki Sizwe 👊Carry on my Guy 💪
Brilliant, Sizwe. You've become - with your team - a south african political expert in my eyes. Great coverage!!
Thank you very much Sizwe. How I wish these two great political fathers could come together and do what is right for the love of the people and leave us with a beautiful legacy for the last chapter...
Thank you Dr Mpofu. I'm eagerly waiting for you to release a book on unfiltered South African history. Our grandchildren will learn a lot from such.
Can you do where Zuma And Malema work together swiping out Mbeki and where Malema turned his back against Zuma
Well researched and packaged for us your audience.
Excellent piece of SA history.
Thoroughly enjoying the Sunday segment,very educational. Ayeye🔥🔥
Glad to hear it
Thank you Doc. It would be lovely to have another episode about the relationship between Uncle Ranko (Cyril Ramaphosa) and Thabo Mbeki, particularly considering the recent tensions between them. Over the past two years, Thabo Mbeki has been critical of Ramaphosa's leadership, even going so far as to label him and others as "thieves." Despite Mbeki's vocal criticisms, Ramaphosa seems to maintain a more restrained approach, perhaps opting to avoid direct confrontation with Mbeki and refraining from engaging in the strong views expressed against him. These dynmics I, are significant, especially given the history between the two men. Notably, Ramaphosa has been mentioned twice in your story: once when he replaced Mbeki, and another time when Mbeki was selected instead of him to be president. These instances suggest a complex dynamic between the two leaders, characterized by a deep-seated rivalry.
Rama has been a white man s finger man from the time he has been in the trade unions struggle and the formation of cosatu/num puppet stunts an interesting figure adding the codesa fiasco
Rama to date has been a big obstacle in the revolution
That would be interesting but is there rivalry or perceive rivalry , did Mbeki label Ramaphoso a "thieve " or was he not reffering to local leaders ?
Go watch the videos and analyze them yourself; that's what I gathered from watching and analyzing the videos. Secondly, it is crucial to note that most often when we speak, we speak from a social constructionism realm, meaning that we take knowledge and make sense of it within the context of social interactions and shared understandings. Then, I stated 'this suggests,' acknowledging the possibility that this might not be the fact, rather, solely my own interpretation of the sdynamics between the two individuals. Thank you
@@kwezilomsosonkwala4933You are correct there is a deep seated rivalry between Mbeki and Ramaphosa. In fact Mbeki and Zuma can co-exist but when you bring Ramaphosa into the mix Mbeki and Zuma can stand together.
Mbeki had work well with Oliver Tambo. He had a difficult relationship with Chriss Hanni. Chriss Hanni together with Joe Slovo were for an military take over of the South African State and not a negotiated settlement. Chriss Hanni was a communist who advocated for the full distribution of land to the black majority and complete nationalisation of the mineral resources of South Africa, anything less than that was a deal break for Him. He was very popular within the movement. was only second to Oliver Tambo and Nelson Mandela in Popularity.
There's no profound relationship between the two... Can't make content out of nothing
Interesting, but I couldn't help but wonder how much we do not know about what transpired behind the scenes during those CODESA negotiation years.
Who was making decisions if not the ANC itself?🤔 how Zuma and Mbeki got to be removed may just be one of many valid questions to ask about most of the decision makings of that Era...
These chaps are sworn to secrecy, even when they fight they don't say out loud exactly what happened.
Thank you for taking us back on our president’s history 🙏🏿
By far two of the most polarizing figures in SA politics
Thanks Sizwe broer, very important topic for SA and the timing is 👌.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this history lesson. I think these are extremely important, especially for the youth that might not be so clued up on our full political history.
I am definitely in support of more segments like these.
My good Doc_ This high intellectual deduction of facts and clarity is superlative! Your high-level sequencing of facts is so unparalleled! I don't know how many times I watched this upload!🙌🌟🙌_ We need to hear more of this! Blessings 🙌
Love this…
Please do more. There are more South Africans that don’t know this than do! Thank you for this
Enkosi Buti Sizwe for the deep-dive! Fascinating history indeed :) We can safely say ANC belongs in a museum after these elections. Hope they don't self-destruct
You're very late, the ANC has already self-distructed. It begins where they force Msholozi into office and calling back Rama, it's only that the effects are not all instant
No 😂! Not museum 😂😂 Muslims... ANC has converted to Islam... don't you see what scarf they wear these days 🙆 theyve absolutely forsaken those ancestors whom they used to worship....this is not only called Change of Religion... The definition of this MADNESS is defined Cooku Land😢 what an Insult to those "madlozi'😊
Mbeki by far was the best to take this country further
I Agree!!!!!!!!!
i do not agree . but if i was a white man i would
@@General_LGdumb
Not agree at all he had 2/3rd majority but never use it.
Deep dive into Cyril Ramaposa would be great.
💯 thank you I agree that would be extremely helpful
His past is probably classified
sellout and apartheid spy. nothing more.
Indeed an interesting figure and feature as the fingernan
I loved this Sizwe. Thank you.
This would make a great Netflix series.
"Yayy rainbow nation, Constitution, and all that... and Tintswalo's life begins"😂😂😂😭😭 DID I NOT LAUGH
Rainbow Nation was a concept that most people didn’t know it was new and South Africa 🇿🇦 would overcome as it overcame apartheid.
@@Jay-rd3hna rainbow only dominated by one superior color...is no rainbow at all...
@@senzomemela1311 it difficult to get it right because we still using their language to study from grade R until university level. Tell me one school in town here South Africa 🇿🇦 that is using vernacular to study all subjects until matric.
The worse thing is the yards we have in township are so small you can’t even extend RDP house to build a house of your dreams with swimming pools. I have seen developers building tiny houses for about R600k in a land area of 262 metre squares and that is a total ripoff. Most houses in towns you will find that the yards starts from 800 metre squares. Apartheid is not over yet in South Africa 🇿🇦 because you can’t go to town find school that teaches African language as second language but you mostly find schools teaching in English and Afrikaans or English or Afrikaans as second language like during apartheid and we say apartheid is over in South Africa 🇿🇦. Language is information ℹ️ and information is knowledge, without knowledge you died even bible says my people are dying because of lack of knowledge. People who are not informed they can’t produce anything they will always follow those who are well informed and have knowledge.
I died lol 😂😂😂😂 Sizwe
Well researched and succinctly presented Sizwe. I've become more fond of viewing your programs recently. Keep up the great work!
Fascinating stuff! I love the detail and the delivery. Best 30 minutes of my day. Thanks for the excellent content!
Thanks!
Dear Sizwe😂 I would like to know what was happening with Chris Hani just before the Cdesa negotiation.
Chris was very popular and well loved by the man & woman in the street, especially by the youth then.I'm 86 yes and had very high hopes for Chris Hani to be in the first democratic government of this my Beloved country.
I really love your dedication to factual and unbiased reporting. Brilliant!!!. Carry on.!!
Thank you and eleqountetly told tale of these two important men. Thank you for the episode and the look back into history, loved the episode!
Dope history lesson as well as a great contribution to the writing of our history and narrative. Thanks Hlubi.
Awesome.Thanks Dr Sizwe Mpofu Walsh.
In the kitchen preparing lunch listening to such a good analogy of these two giants. They’re towering figures in post apartheid ANC, we all feel a certain way and hold opinions over them both.
Yes I agree. I enjoy seeing this being discussed. We all have opinions regarding what is being discussed. I enjoy seeing it on a public platform it's important to know facts that hVe and continue to contribute to south africa.

Uyishayile mfwethu. Thank you

Really enjoyed this segment. Please keep going with your great, though provoking and insightful work

Mind blowing and critical analysis of these two case studies, excellent work.

Great narrative of the two great leaders of our country. I really enjoyed it. It is objective, factual, and to the point. GREAT 👍.
Sizwe, you are a Star, you analysis is characterized by brilliance and thought provoking.
A great watch Sizwe...please do a historical come up of Cyril and the unadressed issues sounding his links with WMC.
Great job Sizwe as always. Thank you
Awesome
What a very informative account of the Greatest ANC leaders.
Excellent break down, extremely interesting show. Keep it up!!
Thanks for the great video - very fantastic story telling ! I have been fascinated by the Zuma Mbeki dynamic and even after watching the video I have a hunger for more
If you added pictures and video media to this video it give it visual context it could get 500,000 views easily.
Wow! Very educational and informative. Thought provoking
Thanks, continue what you started.
Very informative historical background. Much appreciated!
You are a great story teller , I enjoyed listening to you. Big up.
🎉🎉🎉Well done Sizwe. Unbiased reporting from a well researched information
Thank you...fascinating !
Thanks for such important history lesson. I recommend that you do more of such.
Great summary and great insights. Please look into the “Black Jack” figure of Ramaphosa in how the two men break up and how his lingering in the backgrounds defines the complex nature of the political tensions of the Mass Democratic Movement and the entrenched political-economic interests of the Capital.
I can't wait for this episode... Wise men and women always say he who left the union building at first was our own goal... Look at our country now ..
Great 👌 sizwe, great ✊🏿
Nice one!!! Enjoyed this one😊😊
This is a type of story you tell around a camp fire, so intriguing. Thank you Sizwe ❤
Thank you very much Sizwe for the insight
Great and interesting analysis of two great men’s intertwined narratives of power, thanks so much Sizwe
Thank you force, I'll not miss any of your episodes again.
👏👏👏...well done my good sir. This was very captivating.
Nicely articulated as always👏
This is a great historical story Sizwe , I really acquired some important knowledge. Keep up the good work
Love the historical deep dives!
You have just made an outstanding analysis of the politucal career of the two influential presidents of the Republic. It was indeed informative to follow your video
Bro this was absolutely FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was absolutely captivating. Kudos!!!
Quite an interesting analysis. Thank you kindly!🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Sizwe for staying neutral in your analysis of these two giant leaders. The country is now too polarised to visualise positive contributions from these leaders. Keep it up.
simply brilliant.....you are one of a kind. May the good Lord bless and keep you
Excellent, thank you.
We want more deep down to political history of SA thanks for this short formative summary.
Very interesting, Sizwe can you please get hold of Mr. Terra Lekota to come give us his life story and as a member of ANC and tell us what exactly happened as he said Ramaphosa is or was a SPY for apartheid regime...thank u.
Thanke for an interesting information BRAVO!!!
Beautiful analysis and comparison, I learnt a lot. Thank you bro
Fascinating, now this has piqued my curiosity for sure.
Thank you. This was short but fascinating!
Well narrated mate. We need more of these ones.
Thank you mntanami well analyzed,educational, well presented 🙏This really opened my mind and got so many answers on the current political wrestling 🙏
Historical Context! Thank you for this
Brilliant.
Sizwe, your presentation is excellent. You know your history.
Well narrated, thanks Dr Mpofu
Enjoyed this one
Awesome analysis... perhaps Cyril vs Zuma breakdown will be nice...in your next episode..
Def with the gloves off u know. A totally honest brutal real analysis on 2 of the biggest names in south africa history. I think ppl who like and dislike them both would enjoy a breakdown.
bro, really ? Cyril vs Zuma?
Well presented historical info.
Why does this feel like it was too short ! Was so captured in this story. @Siz, do you think Ramaphosa being chief negotiator and then going on to be a billionaire means he was compromised in our negotiations
Nice one Sizwe👌🏿. Let's have a Ramaphosa history
