“We all know there is economic difficulty in this country. The budget that we are going to spend on this inauguration is more than R100m less than what was spent in the previous inauguration‚” she said in a media briefing on Thursday. She said preparing the amphitheatre at the Union Buildings for the ceremony‚ as custom‚ cost more than hiring the Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria.

She is so cruel, she ensured ZUMA had a million more wasteful inauguration and here she is cutting Ramaphosa's by million.......

So...what will it be? Two hundred million rand?

I get the security arrangements for foreign dignitaries but other than that what exactly is costing this much

But still 100 million too much! What's the big deal? Swear him in in Parliament - same as the rest. Few glasses of wine and a few plates of snacks and off you go! Cyril should insist this waste of taxpayers money is done away with.

Thats like me trying to convince myself that buying the Rolex on a 50% sale for R50k is a bargain! It is still rediculous and unnecessary..

Can he not sponsor us, and use his own money

Cyril Ramaphosa's inauguration 'will cost R100m less' than Zuma'sGovernment is planning to spend more than R100m less on the presidential inauguration ceremony of Cyril Ramaphosa than it did on Jacob Zuma's inauguration, as it battles with austerity measures. But it’s still going to cost R120m. Why? We’ve all just seen the unemployment figures. CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA do we need to have such an extravagant inauguration? Why not have a private function with family, friends and guests of honour and televise it. Spending R120m on a one day event is distasteful in the circumstances. Compare it also to Mbeki, Mandela, Deklerk and Verwoed,because Zuma was not the first president.
