He actually refused to be part of Mandela's cabinet. Mandela actually wanted him to be his deputy but the Tambos insisted that Mbeki should be the deputy. So they assigned him to be the chair of constitution drafting committee.
@@molokomack332 mbeki was running the show behind the scenes. he was a great politician & if he + trevor manuel could've continued that momentum SA would be a very different place today
I hear some people say they are impressed with the SONA based on the jobs created and dealings with corruption....😢 ....are we living in the same country????
Mr President with all due respect,the grant is to enslave not empower,first of all if you look at the level/standard of education,it's a laugh,how can we have quality Young South Africans to lead our country,its a shame when our leaders want people to be enslaved rather than empowered Wake up you youngsters of SA
Yeah by giving the grant to young unemployed there's a bigger picture behind it in politics,it's to enslave the more poor, uneducated, and becoming independent on the state is what every ruling party will want,if you educated and empowered with knowledge you gonna question, So u basically become dependent on the state and a vote is secured,so do the maths
I am one of them and very proud because I am not a shallow materialistic voter. I understand the spirit of the ANC. Politics is not just about material things, there is a spiritual purpose and I believe that is more importat.
@@molokomack332 it’s shameful how you can be proud of supporting an organisation that’s deliberately killing the dreams of millions of people and forcing them onto a pathetic social grant, explain yourself to your grandchildren one day and let’s see if they think you’re the hero that you think you are.
@hope22hope41 But what do you mean watchdog if your parliment in cahoots with DA protected the failed president to be accountable for corruption mara?😮 you guys are just shocking
@hope22hope41 I’m in disbelief that you can say there’s no alternative to the one and only political party that has proved beyond any reasonable doubt that they have failed in every single aspect of their governance. No other political party can possibly do worse. You have to be joking….right?
I am one of the millions that will proudly vote ANC because my eyes and brain works perfectly well and I am not easily swayed by useless opposition parties like dying and irrelevant DA and it's cronies who are serving foreign interests while in SA and power hungry. I do my research and take many factors into consideration including geopolical issues because I understand how it impacts me on the ground.
@@thandekavikilahle8081SONA without legitimate means of holding government accountable is useless. Let all opposition excluding EFF attend the same repetitions ANC SONA as usual. All toothless diplomats!!!!
In our rural area we never see the government of the nationalist party giving us nutrition hence the high rate of illiteracy li our communities, the high level of malnutrition among our children during those days of the nationalist apartheid government. It is surprising to hear people talking about food they were given by the apartheid government and saying nothing about the their government who killed our black people.
@@thandekavikilahle8081 The current ANC regime is parading on the graves of those black people who underwent sacrifices and suffering to overthrow the apartheid regime. I do not respect the white men who participated in instituting and upholding apartheid, and even less so the current ANC government oppressing its own people.
Tintswalo is a 30 year girl from South Africa, with a degree, unemployed, who can't even get R350 grant, who is hoping that the corrupt empty promises government will share the wealth of the country. Tintswalo's problem is her brothers and sisters as well as her parents that keep voting for the ANC/DA.
The one I know moved from Alexander and live in Sandton now, because of ANC policies. The sad thing is that he has forgotten what made his achievements possible. He has joined those who push the narrative that the ANC had achieved nothing in 30 years. He forgets like a chicken.
South Africa need a government that employ people in high offeces based on qualifications not based on been just politician. If the country has ministers who doesn't have a clue of how the field run the is nothing to expect. The other problem is if someone fail as minister of sport tomorrow he/she is a minister of agriculture. The country need a government that put time frame on their promises and if that is not met they should be held accountable that is why today we are still resolving state capture, Eskom, water problem in giyani because they don't put deadline to anything. Opposition parties should also try to reduce complaining and put plans on the table of what they are going to take this country forward.
Thankyou 4taking SA forward to a new visionary.and n renewed hope for iits cosmic populace in 2024 Wie aanhou wen Dannkie ,Steenhuisen 4 Ppresident 2024
Welcome to be the South Africans and by the way no one need your vote, Vote Israel parties emerging like satanic extremists vote Israel ANC is doing the utter most best with a large amount of population from throughout the world ,listen to your....its your best.......
The first person to be interviewed and crowded by media competing to ask questions all mics n phones pointed to him,2 or 3 questions at the same time is THE CIC OR EFF in particular now one can feel that media is disappointed
Andrew is a 39 old male from KZN who lost he's job due to covid. Not considered a youth anymore and cannot find gainful permanent employment despite years of experience. Where is he suppose to go, what is he suppose to do? Also Andrew is not a black South African, he is coloured.
We invite Andrew to vote for the party that cares about the people and the country. Vote EFF and change your life forever. Economic freedom in our lifetime.
@@EFF2UnionBuilding Please do your research on marxism and socialism and the tremendous evil and suffering it facilitated in our human history. Corruption and inequality can get only get worse if the economic fascists get their way.
I fail to understand how police service are not giving it's flowers here,if every person is arrested but not been put to justice by the court of law how is that the police service failure??if the courts of our country is fair enough,no must be above the constitution of law....but leadership have undisclosed amount of money.......I think going forward we need to fix the justice system of the nation it's not doing enough 😢😢😢😢
What research? You don't listen with understanding and don't comprehend. The ANC is finished and they have nothing to show for it. People are not working that's evidence
What happened to SAA, what happened to Transnet, what happened to our hospitals, what happened to Escom and and and. ANC must go. No jobs, no investment nothing.
SONA should have addressed 2023. What should have been said: 1. An apology for failure and doing nothing 2. 332 days of Load Shedding 3. Sorry I don't want to address corruption 4. Transnet has failed. Our ports are listed as the worst performance in the world 5. SAA lights are out. Sorry 6. I really hate this job, am tired of it, really. 7. SAP is a disaster 8. Our best ability is being corrupt, at least give us the credit fir this.
The high fuel ⛽..prize and high cost of living, the high and most expensive food baskets does not affect..Ramaphosa his family, his children, his wife, his Cabinet 🗄️..His Ministers, ...The Parliamenterians...... Everything thing is Mahala...for them.... While we have sleepless nights & worried where our next meal must cme from....Is bad in the City Of Ekurhuleni we don't have a Goverment we don't have a Mayoral Committee...They just wait for their pay check....
Problem is we looking at the past 30 years, real issue is how is the next 30 years going to be if there is so many inconsistencies already.... But l wouldn't be shocked if ANC wins the elections because africa always favours apartheid regime so yea😂😂😂
Bring African Americans with money into this country, R2, R3, R4 000 000 on hand. Many want to come and invest, start businesses, buy housing., spend money. Create a visa for them, they are Africans, too. Something is better than nothing. Even AA's with U S retirement funds (social security) of just $1500. a month, that's $18,000 a year is R341 000 a year.. And this fund increases every year for life (cost of living adjustment). Many other African countries have opened their arms to AA's with means and money and their economy is responding. South Africa would, also, help many leave a painful past behind.
We don't need Americans to come build our country, we have ample mineral resources. We just need to build based on that. The only thing holding us back as a nation is this incompetent government.
Only fools hope for the better from ANC. I say this truth humbly. We don't need foreign money to develop, we need to invest into our people and get necessary scarce skills from foreign countries to help in our nation especially in mining sector. Mines must be nationalised to balance Rich-Poor equation.
We are slowly starting to see that with the move to BRICS. It would be difficult to convince the people who are getting paid to misunderstand the solution to suddenly understand it at the cost of their cushy life but with BRICS they will be restricted in the kind of policies they can even present.
If you know the problems that plagued public hospitals, and you also know something about DA or "same principles" multiparty economic policy, what do you think they are going to do with the public hopistals besides understaff and privatise them?
It is really so ùnbelieveable to hear how the sitting President is being disgraced from the time he was a Vise President. They all are embracing Former President which was replaced by the curent. All opinions expressed by the opposition parties have just been fighting the sitting President, so obvious that there Hate, dislike and therfore only negatives can be narrated. Meaning to destroying His character as a person. So far it is being portrait that Zuma is the most desired despite all revelations about him. All noise that have been on during His one term. Very funny scenario to actually see and hear expectations of bolt decisions, actions and more by the President. I thought He had implementers to do the work and provide reports at created platforms for accountability and reviews together. But now it sound as if He is expected to do all as President. alone. A pity indeed.
@@shafiyaalgiquadra1105 Constructive criticism is said to be more conducive and helpful for making genuine, progressive decisions and planning. As development processes require well informed and properly designed tools for making changes. I cannot and wouldn't entertain arguments arguments based on " He failed, because this or the other was not " . This is as if all was to be done by him single handedly. What did other intelligent representatives serving in that government contribute???
@@emmaboys2591 oh I thought you were a bot, my apologies. My qualms is with the man who blatantly ignored ANC resolutions for example to nationalise the Reserve, if the Prezzie prevents it from the top please tell me how you can force him to implement the important changes in macro economic policy he has deemed, wholely unilaterally, unimportant? What have others done is in fact a cop out I felt I did not need to entertain with any seriousness.
I feel like the story of the lady born 30 years ago is grossly overly simplified, and President Ramaphosa is being burned at the stake for it rightfully.
Honest question from a concerned Yankee: At this point what does anyone see in Mr Ramaphosa? He seems to be to be a very uninspiring leader, and tbh if the situation in the country keeps getting worse, why does anyone feel like they owe him or the ANC their allegiance?
I think the most boring thing about state of the nation address is when the media ask the opposition parties opinion on it. They always say the same thing and one wonders why they keep on going to attend.
Gwede sounds like a drunk uncle at a braai.....I'm sorry but he does no instill faith in me😀😀😀😀😀😀. Ramasofa laughed at his own speech .....maybe he knows they cannot bullshit us any more...............all the signs are there to see
Drug peddlers are caught at the border and jail sentenced all drugs in Cape town by DA as police work 24/7 as the population is of high standard in South Africa Anc can not only curb crime this political parties did nothing to assist, yet sit back and watch ANC suffer the consequences of jeopardizing the plant of Eskom as serious legal action against them, they hate Muslim countries Jihadh on the way ANC fought the struggle to safe them the very same ppl against ANC one man to .... My fear concerning how and what will happen to the muslims throughout the world.....ANC stood firmly inside South Africa politically parties were against Palestinians and called for Ramaphosa to return back leave the outside world he still moved forward, Its your choice no one is forced to vote ANC Israel taking over every second.....
There is nothing will change as long as people are governed by colonial laws. If the people of South Africa make constitutional law which will protect the pp
