The SA Federation of Trade Unions (Saftu) leader made the call for Ramaphosa to resign after the latest GDP figures.

SA Federation of Trade Unions general secretary Zwelinzima Vavi says the GDP figure do not reflect the situation on the ground.The SA Federation of Trade Unions leader made the call on Wednesday after the release of the latest GDP figures. that among the largest contributions to the increase came from the transport, personal services and trade industries.The figures come after a record high unemployment figure of 34.4%, which means that about 7.82-million people are jobless in SA.

“Government is refusing to restructure the economy and abandon liberal policies. It is refusing to embrace a call, that has been made so repeatedly, that the current structure inherited from the colonial apartheid will never ever respond to the crisis of larger economy, the inclusion of black people [and the] the crisis of poverty,” said Vavi.

Vavi wa gafa

Hard luck mr Vavi president Ramaphosa is here to stay and fix the mass you created with with Zuma there after you jumped the ship you apologized for the role you played but unfortunately the damage was already done. Stop making noise please.

Utsho nje lo kuba umlomo ungebuhlungwangwa

Who does he want to install now, because last time he installed someone, things turned out badly for the country.

Well with your communist policies it will be a lot worse. BEEmustgo.

Which tsunami is he planning to give us?

For ramaphosa to resign won't do ANC any better.ANC as a whole is corrupt and rotten.your time to govern this country has come to an end.

Vavi love using women hence he was removed from cosato, he is just a puppy dog with no teeth. He is using innocent people for his agenda. Hands off to our president. President Ramaphosa will lead us until both terms comes to an end.

Yah that true

Zwelinzima1 we're here because of your Tsunami and Lula moments

Vavi is irrelevant now. We used to listen to him but not anymore. He should rather retire completely and go home.

ZwelinzimaVavi you have forever been at the forefront and in alliance with MYANC all the time. What did you do about what you termed liberal policies?

Vavi is one of the people who misled the Country to nine wasted years. I have lost confidence in him

You chose him you moegoe

You are sick.

He is just broke,he thinks that Ramaphosa is Zuma?. Himself is a failure too from the Zuma era. Because of greedy he decided to have his own organisation,but what does he do actually for workers?. He can resign if he like,unlike calling for others to resign.

Do u think president Ramaphosa is super general and can turn covid19 repurcations ,think twice b4 vomiting

Resign yourself for adultery whlist u were Cosatu secretary gen

I think unions are as much to blame for poor GDP

Just nje?🙄

Blame others, so do the unions think strikes increase employment?

The same Vavi who slept with another man's wife in his office? Same guy who allegedly sexually harassed a clean at work? Vavi must wait. His time is gone.

You were singing praises for Ramaphosa

Vavi is useless

Headline should read ' one of the earliest man to defeat covid..' be creative

ZungulaVuyo I’d support your call even if you were accusing him of snoring. Time up Cyril!

Vavi failed cosatu dismally that is why they fired him to form his useless union

Vavi is always hallucinating

ZungulaVuyo The new dawn.

ZungulaVuyo So now they finally see the light or he has fulfilled his mandate of distabilising this country and now he's being discarded like a used piece of chewing gum 🤨🤔

This Vavi has now became a popular comedian, everytime he has something to say, doesn't make sense at all. Ever since he left Cosatu, what did he ever brought to help the people of SA, nothing but jokes.

Yena did he resign from the previous union or they had to make a plan to get rid of him?

Is if unions are for their members

Vavi, that organization of yours is akin to a terrorist group. What hypocrisy you have called for resignations when you and your fellow labour unions basically steal workers hard earned salaries through fees. Then you fuck up the economy by striking. Your communism is flawed

I have been very fruitful ever since I have been investing with William_church0 . contacted Mr William after series of testimonies i saw online, i took courage and started investing with him. I have made my third withdrawal which are ten times the initial investment.

What about pandemic? What role did it play to creat jobs? 🤦🏽‍♂️South Africa

Bese kungena bani. What we are seeing now are the results of the previous registration of which Vavi himself was a staunch supporter and he also encouraged us to vote for it. Bamba umoya Vavi

This sex addict has been deceving workers for years while his family has food on the table

I think you wrong chief - please who do you suggest to run the country- the guy you were gonna for - no!

So just because Zuma has been paroled he wants him back. This country is where it is because of people like Vavi who voted Zuma into power calling him tsunami. Look at what their tsunami has done to the economy. President Ramaphosa is going nowhere, relax baba.

Maybe before asking anyone to resign the more valuable question is who is it that will replace him.

In their line of logic he resign then a new President comes in then automatically the GDP and then we live happy after. Very naive.

We can't take a man who has sex in his offices -a place of work and economic contribution serious,nogal with his mistress. Vavi must find something to be relevant with.

They must keep quite - no right to complain - they mos supported the ANC. Take responsibility for your actions

Looks like Vavi's brain has not recovered from covid-19. Same guy who 'chowed' in his office while standing.

Who the fuck cares what Vavi has to say

Why didn't Zwelinzima1 resign as SG when CellC retrenched 1600 workers under his nose? Mxm

Vavi o tsubile Benzine

Vavi gave us Zupta. He campaigned vigorously for Zupta. Can't trust him any more

CR is a totally useless President in so many ways. He’s a totalitarian he should, at the very least, open up the floor to questions after his ‘blah blah’ speeches AND stop surrounding himself with such old people saying and doing the same old ‘blah blah’ things.

The role of union leaders is to criticize as social economic partners, they don't know which economic model and programmes are suitable resolving poverty and unemployment. 💔💔💔💔

Vavi is part of the problem that created an illusion that Zuma is a leader while his wife was securing the government bag

Look who is talking.

Vavi must go on pension now, he hardly makes sense.

Does he know that the reserve bank now has a surplus of more than 300 billion rand. He must go relax

GDP figures might not be a convincing case to unseat the President and gain support from vulnerable communities in the most of the global turmoil . Try real issues of social assistance and financial education if you want attention

It’s not a Ramaposa issue, it’s an anc problem... remove anc and we shall be able to breath, they can’t even pay their own people

Vavi is out of touch

This is a populist statement. Where did the employment figures stand before Ramaphosa took over? Did he factor in that the country was into junk status and what about the contribution of covid-19 in all these.What will change if Ramaphosa resigns.

At least u should have shown us the face the leader who contributed on that mess

Vavi must focus on his tuckshop union,,We are here because of his perplexing wisdom.
