Crooks in ANC thrive because they ride on Ramaphosa’s credibility - Thought Leader

By Kosheek Sewchurran

When Ramaphosa ascended to the seat of power in the ANC, people hoped he would reverse the declining fortunes of the party. One of its leaders, Gwede Mantashe, was so eager to sell this dream that he pronounced: “The ANC now has a president who is rich and would therefore not be tempted to steal.” When Ramaphosa came with a promise of “a new dawn”, people believed the president. But the sun is yet to shine. Possibly the president overplayed his influence. Let’s recall his path to power. Ramaphosa did not possess organic internal support in the ANC. It was external support that propelled him — from ANC voters threatening to abandon the party should it not elect Ramaphosa as president.

So who supports Ramaphosa? It is the corrupt Eastern Cape province, the troublesome Limpopo province, the uncertain Gauteng province notorious for its Alex mafia – a corrupt gang that leverages on tenders in the province. Ramaphosa is compromised because of them. Hence the reason he resorted to public relations accountability. He often says things to boost his image.

Point of correction, there is no one with credibility in the ruling party. You also know their shenanigans, its just that you will potray them as saints for your own agendas.

I won't judge anyone who believes the anc is a benefiary of corruption, which is crime against humanity! WHY ARE KNOWN ANC CORRUPTION CRIMINALS NEVER ARRESTED? The Zondo commission has got all the evidence! And the hands of the hawks are still tied!
