President Cyril Ramaophosa says the time for Africa to become self-reliant has come.

President Cyril Ramaphosa has concluded his visit to Germany where he attended the G7 Leaders' Summit, where issues discussed included climate change, health, energy and the Russia-Ukraine war.“We want African countries to be self-reliant when it comes to fertiliser production and we are going to be working with the G7 countries to see how best we can reach that level.”

Speaking in an interview after wrapping up his visit to Germany, where he attended the G7 Leaders’ Summit, Ramaphosa said a proposal, similar to that of how Africa managed the Covid-19 pandemic vaccines, was in the pipeline. “I am particularly pleased about this prospect, that we should improve fertiliser production so as to secure food security. If we want to secure food security, be it grains or any other food commodity, it is fertiliser that is going to make us reach that level.”

Ramaphosa said SA’s participation this year took place at a time when the world was confronted by myriad challenges, including the Covid-19 pandemic, climate change and the war in Ukraine, which has resulted in the high cost of living in many developing countries. Ramaphosa, who represented the continent with AU chair Macky Sall, Senegal's president, met Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, “to reflect on the path that we had traversed with India and many other countries, on the issue of the TRIPS Waiver at the World Trade Organisation”.

So, no more begging bowl for CYRIL to feed his ANC comrades? I can’t see this happening.

Then why is he there? Should be meeting with AU. Liar.

Ding ding.. Cyril RamaDOLLAR does it ring a bell

Lies

Give us more money so we can be self reliant...

Start by fixing SA please

Pity its leaders stand in the way if it.

Lol, u could not even look after what you got from the previous goverment. The country is completely destroyed through greed, cadre deployment. Biggest electricity producer on the continent managed into ruins. And you want Africa to become self reliant? Give me a f*^$ ing break!

BUT THE BEGGING HANDS ARE ALWAYS OUT

😂😂😂😂🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌

Hebanna, people are discussing serious issues but yena is posing. Aikhona.

This man must go, we don't need him anymore

Self-reliant njani inyathi isabhenka ngaphansi kombhede and he is busy selling SOE's PhalaPhalaFarmGate

Mr President Sir represent us well

Oksalayo you won't be part of that goal, wena you can go back and be CEO of phala-phala bank as early as possible before it ends in tears for you😏😏😏

Quite right!!!!

Lol

Ha ha ha! Self reliant my foot!

😳..... AFRICA 🌍

Another grand politicking stance by the President. W e know we cannot be self-sufficient as Africa. How can we be if we fail to raise up as a country?

Only now? Man y’all aren’t serious

😂 So what were we doing all this time? Through covid etc besdlala?

He's always farting through the mouth this one, I will vote either EFF or Mashaba, one thing sure is that I won't let this chance of voting bypass me, I will have a say! And I don't want ANC!

But he is the one running to China!

This is a serious statement and you use meme😹😹😹💀💀💀 you can’t be serious

Meanwhile back in SA where he is supposed to be president, the power grid is collapsing.

Who do they want to sell us out to now? Just know they mean they opposite of what they say. Their actions will bear it out.

Tsek...

While he banks in the matresse

South Africa is like... You see us? Oh wait... No you don't because we don't have bloody electricity.

Kenneth98343018 Come from where? 🤔

Right

Africa is nothing without the West

Meaning, time to stash away millions under mattresses for rainy days, has come?

Ceremonial President, he's not even paying attention

Why is he the only one posing?

We are not Africa . Worry about South Africa and stop giving South Africas money to Africa. There is lots of South Africans in Africa that dont like what the ANC has done. Its because of the ANC most of the good people left the country

How can Africa be self-reliant when the continent leaders are so comfortable on overindulging on China🇨🇳 loans?

But his sitting in a western countries meeting. Is he not supposed to discuss that with fellow African leaders?🤔

Self reliant kae when he is posing for pictures in the middle of serious discussions 🙄🙄🙄

N i dnt his aware dat we dnt hv electricity ⚡️ loadsheddin stage 60

He says one thing and does the opposite! How is Africa going to be self-reliant if they can’t even keep the lights on!! Mxm!

Oh please CyrilRamaphosa you have failed this country. You can't fire cadres. And Eskom_SA is a disaster

So, our handsome president goes to Germany to anounce that Afrika must be self-reliant.

Mxm

He's busy taking selfies like there is no PhalaPhalaFarmGate

Telll him to explain how his planning to do that

This Ramaphosa loves empty promises. 😂

It's impossible. How can we be reliant while the core facilities and resources are still under the helm of the crooks.

That will only happen if they import 10 million whites

let him start here.. PhalaPhalaFarmGate

We need to love each other as Africans.

One must not put too much weight on what Mr Ramaphosa says. He has said a lot of things.

Mattress is telling lies

Intra Africa trade is only 13%. Without connectivity, Africa will stay this way no matter how much air will blow. The East and North Africans seem to be getting their connectivity right, but Southern Africa is lagging way behind.

Mr PhalaPhalaFarmGate is fooling himself.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ok

Okay Mr President,but we are here👇👇👇

😂🤣😅

He’s telling lies again

Wat rook die man

PhalaPhalaFarm PhalaPhalaGate CyrilMustResign he was stashing euros and selling out brics members

Webhatata

His government will FAIL because of his Anti Israel rhetoric

Your MYANC chomies fucked up everything. How do you think we will become self-relient.?
