What did you achieved sweet blou fokkol

With Zuma and them at the helm of it we are like young helpless prisoners that are abused by prison gangsters every night who think we must not be complaining because they sacrifice their supper for us every night. 😢

“When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.” Frederic Bastiat

Yes it was. Just look at the GDP and service delivery figures. Don’t forget the R270 billion that was lost to fraud and squander.

You see this Ramaphosa is telling kak, he thinks he is a perfectionist with double tounge, how the hell would he critisize his predecessor on a global stage, while he was the very deputy of the country. Sies

How do they keep getting away with such shit?

Point of correction Mr shower head,it has been Atul at the helm since 2009

This delusional old man who giggled his way, never having to answer questions thrown to him- hiding in other countries under the pretext of ' a foreign trip' ,lied, giggled more, stole a little more , licked his lips some more, lied in parliament. A total failure as a President.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😃🤣🤣🤣🤣

'You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of others, but God knows your hearts. What people value highly is detestable in God’s sight” (Luke 16:15). “And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.” Matthew 15:14

ANC stole/looted more money than they spent on the countries infrastructure/service delivery... so yes a disastrous 9years!

Ramaphosa during ANC manifesto launch in Durban Zuma was a good man to attract votes,on International soil he is 9years of wasted democracy?I sense double standard on the part of baba ka Andile

It was probably the MOST WASTED years in SA's history!

Msezane_Sifiso Media driving us up and down Eish... 😂😂😂😂Wellcome to SA

Ordinary South Africans who will not receive the services due to them will for the last nine years. It is tragic that the former president still feels that he achieved some measure of success.

Delusional

Talk about the worst value for money president the world has ever seen, he STILL doesn't get it.

I'm sure it was very successful from Zuma's perspective. He's got a nice house, fat bank account, wealthy life style & security. The ignoramous doesn't give a damn that for most SAns it was the absolute opposite.

What have we achieved? Fire pools, guptas, watsons, dysfunctional parliaments, failing municipalities, billions of wasteful &irregular expenditure, the fall of SARS and KPMG, crime, more shacks, failed health & education, high gvt debt..the list is endless

Wouldn’t call it wasted. It was total disaster

One does not only focus on the achievements, but the failures as well to get n full perspective of your presidency.

Jacob Zuma would obviously ignore the fact that 'nine wasted years' has to do with state capture and corruption

Under him ANC lost tshwane and Joburg..

Where does Zuma live?

TimesLIVE Yes he will say so because Zuma is not ashamed a

YES ! IT WAS A WASTED DECADE!!!

PresJGZuma - Thief and Liar, Corrupted untrustworthy, selfish, Iooser - Decade of destruction thanks to your Zero Leadership ability.

Was it a wasted decade: Yes. The stats that matter are all worse: unemployment, debt, manufacturing etc.

PresJGZuma what achievement are you talking about?

Last person to talk 😏

Entrenched culture of corruption. Period.

How could it have been wasted, you made about R10bn at least in that decade

Zuma term may have produced some staff as he says, but he deleted all those by corrupt activities during his term.

PresJGZuma lives in denial! Here, Jacob, these are what the major indicators say about your term in office. Not one good one! And that doesn't show the culture of corruption that you bred. You set this country back. Grow balls and own that.

Unity is credible when is governed by principles. That is the approach for the administration led by Cyril . Indeed it was a wasted 9 years.

Is not wasted decade is disaster decade put us back to worse than the Apartheid.

The those sunglasses off maybe you will see the reality of how South Africa looks after thieves like you emptied coffers of this country,

Zumaneys are like pair of jeans always want something in their pockets just shoosh you're time is up

PresJGZuma FFS Jacob pls go back to watching your cattle, wives and children. Everyone has the right to be stupid but you take it to a whole new level.

The thief is unashamedly speaking

Could JZ have stolen more.... maybe but then there would be nothing left for anyone else to steal.....

Fucken joke of the decade

CoruscaKhaya But all the achievements Zuma mentioned here r true. These r things we can't deny. They happened infront of our own eyes

The Idiocy in the comments read thus far is incredible to say the least. Billions cannot be stolen without bank accounts so please show us proof before you spew garbage.

TimesLIVE Zuma lost three metros in history of ANC, he's the central figure of our crisis, he better shut up

Thank god this man is no longer the president of SA. Created a runaway train of corruption, still far from over.

But you got to him him credit, 10 wives and his is busy in politics at his age. The man has lots of energy. Too sad he was only thinking of himself

Definitely don't agree ... moral, wealth and reputational erosion

J.Zuma exposes the weakness of the rulling party

He didn't mention all his achievements i.e. enabling Gupta & Watson brothers to loot billions whilst SAns left poor, falling SOEs, captured NPA/Hawks, Junk status, Unemployment after lying he will create 50mil jobs, Social division, Disinvestment, Poor educ & Health system etc

Oh la la fun times ahead.......

Zuma took him back to the ANC, now it was wasted nine years, he was not leading at that time?

Wasted decade indeed

This spells disaster to the so called UNITY.

Let them fight amongst each other

🤣🤣🤣,Introduction of free educations

It will forever be known as 'South African Lost Years.. The Zuma Years..

Who can disagree with his achievements 🤔 Okay unless you are felt with hatred. Cilili wa tella😂

Yes ,you could have done more corruptions and better your friend and family

I agre with Zuma. The last 9yrs was not wasted. How else were they gonna steal billions.

Uphambene uZuma. Yes it was a wasted decade. South Africa regressed in every indicator.. Zuma inherited a good country from Mbeki and Mandela and he messed it up and gave Ramaphosa a country worse that what apartheid handed over to us. He can deny it all he likes but it's TRUE

Could have done more for who?

Can PresJGZuma just sit home and enjoy his pension? We don’t want his justifications, he had his time and he also blamed those before him. He must just man up and be strong life goes on 🤬

It was Silili or Tito?

Ramaphosa says SA is cleansing itself of past years' corruptionPresident Cyril Ramaphosa has once again reflected on former President Jacob Zuma’s administration. With what ? “Lifebuoy” We need to do a proper cleansing ceremony by doing a lifestyle audit on every fatcat & invite the SIU, Hawks, NPA, mobile court & a lot of police vans. Then 2 third majority will be within reach. Not until those who created a need for cleansing are in jail! Those with dirty hands, in fact, filthy hands, are freely enjoying the fruit of their destruction of our country. Talk is cheap Cyril.
