As a country we have heard that the new Covid-19 varient is called Omicron and we have heard that the number of infections are rising,Ramaphosa must please not close the country and must remember that we are here all because of what was happening during LGE campaigns

He must keep the same energy when it comes to youth unemployed

He must remember that there was no COVID during elections and when they were holding their councilors elections. There must be no COVID even now in December. It's not right that COVID is dangerous when it suits them.

So where was Covid 19 during elections 🤔 I guess it decided to come back after taking a vacation 🤔

We demand Level 0 from president Cyril Ramaphosa....nothing else

Point of correction ☝️, its not a Pandemic it's an IQ test.

Now that's why you call him ' president' ? 🚮🚮🚮🚮

Uncle Cyril could keep these family meetings to 10 minutes to get straight to the point and let us know what's going on. We just need a summary.

I hope He still remember this before He address us

Only thing keeping him relevant is covid

Our time will come, one day it will be over for these bullies ushering in tyranny. The people will rise

Ramaphosa and Agay 🖇 mood killers

We r eagerly waiting to hear his address.but he must nrv tell us abt lockdown.if dare tell us abt lockdown it is the day he'll see real colour of S AFRICAN,we respected him enough,if he ever say hard lockdown he must prepare to call his soldiers to kill us cos we won't comply.

Like clockwork, on to level 3/4 we're moving. Predictable.
