Nationalising the Reserve Bank is “simply not prudent”, President Cyril Ramaphosa said in a statement on Thursday, after a meeting with the ANC's top six officials.

Nationalising the Reserve Bank is “simply not prudent”, President Cyril Ramaphosa said in a statement on Thursday, after a meeting with the ANC’s top six officials.

“The Constitution… sets the role of the Reserve Bank as protecting “the value of the currency in the interest of balanced and sustainable economic growth.” It further through the cabinet minister responsible for national financial matters.“It is our desire for the South African Reserve bank to be publicly owned. However, we recognize that this will come at a cost, which given our current economic and fiscal situation, is simply not prudent.

The top six met to discuss the state of the economy, given the 3.2% contraction in the economy announced by Statistics South Africa on Tuesday, the sharpest decline in a decade.

'For Now' but honestly under this President conference resolutions will not be implemented simple answer is he won't get second term

It's just political speak !!!

This is the only democracy in South Africa. When the vote for change in figurehead is in the power of criminals that have hijacked the structures of MyANC who can get rid of their leaders when they don't pursue an agenda by the people or criminals in power.

For a while Mbeki tried to keep the populists & criminal corrupt of 'it's our time from' from destroying the country. They found a figure head as corrupt as they were who would not say 'no' in the form of Zuma. Ramaphosa knows he's under the axe. MyANC is criminal organization.

Nationalise it, or you don't - it is going to end up like the one in ZIM - useless. Just look at how many times they've fooled around with their currency still nothing works. Reason - it was build on a lie that as a state controlled institution it will be supper efficient - a LIE

Is this statement true? Asking for Ace Magashule!!!

Does the anc have enough votes to change the constitution?
