President Ramaphosa must do more than the increasingly disappointing cameo appearances he has been making. He cannot hide behind the ruse of being a consensus leader. Consensus is not a belief system. It is now becoming an excuse, writes Mondli Makhanya

President Cyril Ramaphosa had a date with history this week.What would prove difficult to forgive, however, was his performance on this particular date.Ramaphosa’s address on Wednesday evening was supposed to be a major reset; a reclaiming of the high ground he and the government he leads had occupied in the early stages of the Covid-19 coronavirus outbreak in the country.

There were moans and groans about certain pleasurable products not being available to purchase, but, all in all, we were prepared to march in step.Then power went to the heads of the National Command Council , an eerily named structure that spoke of a state of martial law.They relished telling the hoi polloi that they could not buy pies, lotto tickets and other items based on nothing more than their whims.

Other civil formations and individuals are taking similar action, even challenging the constitutionality of the NCC and the National Disaster Management Act that created it and enabled the lockdown.When the country moved to level 4, many saw it – or chose to see it – as the end of the lockdown. But he was absolutely correct to point out that letting the citizens end the lockdown would be disastrous.

tim_make A crisis reveals the true nature of men, organisations and nations. It is like a report card for your actions in the years of normalcy. Did you squander away the good times or make the most of them? Don't blame the crisis. It is just a reflection of your own actions.

He can't do more than what he is capable of. 1. He is NOT a leader. 2. He is a beneficiary of 26 years of ANC corruption. 3. He continues to pursue a agenda where only the very thieving cadres will benefit. 4. He has failed this country on criminal level. DeathtotheANC

My problem with Ramaphosa is Q&A sessions are thing of the past.

An excuse for nefarious activities

Mandela was a consensus leader, but was able 2, Choose China over Taiwan, met Castro dispute USA likings, told De Klerk when he was out of order, etc. to mention the few

Every day, day by day this man will lose loyalty, hate is growing toward CyrilRamaphosa, just a smiling face for the destruction by him and his goons, to make it clear people hate you!!!

I always thought leading by consensus to be an oxymoron.

Ay Ay Ay Shombela, sujoyine legenge yoBaas nawe!!

I know you Sir you always out of order👎

The voters are nothing in ANC's perspective,let Mr President command and dictate,damage already done,let's meet at the polling station,he's the last ANC president to hold the office,THE LAST

He is ur president so there is no need to tell us... U can just phone him anytime n discuss ur problems

Fucccccck you

President Mondli Makhanya sure has philosophies on managing a global pandemic, perhaps he has experience of this or maybe its is easy to be brave behind a keyboard

Let's pay companies R10,000 for each job saved: EC premier to Cyril RamaphosaFor each job saved in manufacturing, the Eastern Cape provincial government proposes to reward companies with R10,000. Great Idea 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 also consider Andile Mngxitama's Idea Brilliant The RLF calls upon government to give all poor and unemployed citizens including all Social Security Grant categories a Universal lncome Grant of R7000.00 monthly. Stupid idea, you save more money to let the employee go than R10000.
