Talking won't make people listen...actions speak louder than words.

Lockdown vibes..... really disheartening though.......educate our brothers to respect and our sisters to speak out......some of us are looking for them fools who beat up on our sisters

And the action plan is..?

I think that most accept that the situation is not getting any better . We need a change in how things are auctioned here to make the difference

Does condemning have an effect? I think his in a position to do more ....

Gender-based violence in SA is a cultural thing, until that changes, it will never end. Law enforcement can only do so much.

We tired of you just condemning. Do something now! Stop burying your head in the sand.

This man is no leader.

He condemns a lot but does nothing about anything. All talk that’s all he is. What his superiors say always goes. Just a puppet on a few strings.

We had crime fighters, and you and Zuma disbanded it, so that you could steal

The president who just talks and does fokol

We tired of talk...I think it's time for a woman president...these men are failing our women...I'm am tired of this ANC government...we've been patient for way to long now

I think our ladies should be careful as well. If you sense your boyfriend/husband is agressive or hot tempered and hits you all the time, just leave him cause he's not the only man who'll love you. Report him to the police nd if the police is not doing anything, go to court

But yet you set criminals free. Rapist are walking the streets.

mara I told you about this ANC

do better

Yes “Condemn” away!

We called the police a while back as our neighbor was very clearly being hurt by her husband/boyfriend. The police came to the gate, rang the bell, and over the intercom asked if she was okay. She replied yes and the police left without further questions or investigation. Part 1

Talk is cheap

Agree with the president

Thats all you've been doing condemning even those before you, its nothing new and what happened after that? life moves on mxm what a 🥱🤮cause you not in touch with what's happening on the ground

But farm murders are fine. O sorry, you told the world that that is not happening 🤮

Why didn’t he do something about it during lockdown rather then case cigarette smokers and surfers 🤷‍♂️

Most people condemn GBV and femicide, what is Ramaphosa DOING to put an end to the problem.

GBV cannot be condemned in media press conferences, it should be condemned in a court of law. If our government was serious about it, they'd have introduced harsher sentences for these perpetrators, or even death sentence!! I'm so sorry to RSA women, looks like you're on yo own

He did even 9 months ago, this coming september will mark his 1 year anniversary of empty action promises, he should win the olympics for running his mouth....👇👇👇

Gender based violence too soft a term for murder

If Bheki Cele could do his job and STOP🛑 making noise with alcohol it will be better 😭😭😭😭

It's the lockdown, secrets are slowly coming out from couples because they spend too much time with each other... period!!

Its Time the president say,,if you rape or kill Death sentence,,once and for all ,we cant keep reading senseless response,,its human life's at stake,,kill be killed

How do you condemn something that was created by you?

Condemning GBV cases verbally does not help and it’s not the first he condemns it that way.... harsh punishment to culprits will be much better

I guess he was shocked to hear that his people perform such heinous crimes

Tired of big empty talk and slogans, dig deep and bring forth constructive and measurable remedial action, not tomorrow, right now. Stop counting the martyrs in a criminal world! This has been going on for centuries.

Is CyrilRamaphosa aware that SAPoliceService turn away women who seek help?

This cover captures the mood of all Women in South Africa. Have a listen. 💔😭

Look at timeline, State Capture was the baby THE PARENTS ARRIVED x 10 = A N Covid 19 looters and that’s how PresidencyZA and goons are fighting to keep their knees on citizens neck, killing small businesses and killing citizens civil rights to choose, all in the name of covid 19

Condemning the violence but can't condemn his fails to assist hungry people, everyday people are crying for help, crying to get back to work but he won't say a damn thing about that situation. People haven't received their UIF and people haven't received the R350 Grant.

Condemns ka molomo not actions! We are tired of words, hashtags, marches, committees, we want actions. 😠😠

Yes...condemn the hell out of it! Still our sisters will be killed . Our government 's inaction is so frustrating.GBVmustfall

Nothing new something horrific happens he condemns nd nothing gets done until the next time

Mr President wethu is a disappointment honestly....I just remembered at some conference victims of gender based violence stripped and show you their physical scars and to date you are condemning the GBV with no action...

It has always been on a rise & why Is he just condemning it now. Prior? The fight against GBV takes more than just condemning it.

bringbackdeathpenalty no rapist or killer deserve to be in jail. The victims never got a second chance they also shouldn’t. CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA GovernmentZA bringbackdeathpenalty so much crime in the country we need death penalty back News24 Official_SABC1

stop condemning reading from a page speak from the heart don't treat criminals with kid gloves..the honeymoon is long gone

Words! Words! Words! What a disappointing president. It makes no difference how much he condemns or is 'shock_ed'. Give black men jobs NOW! Give them a sense of self worth! Let them trade on the streets! Get rid of your useless cANCer cadres stifling black business!!!

Hayi suka, how many times condemning? We need him to take action. Sick & tired of condemning and sorries 😡

Condemn all violence

He must act, not just talking nje..

Groundbreaking 😐

He can’t stand ground for women n children

All You do is talk about it. Talk is cheap. Why don't you DO Something about it. What is wrong with you?

Well if President is shocked, then he must have been in Lala Land, this and worse has been going on for years

This one is not serious

Condemning it is not enough

Yes that will definitely make them stop! People are raised with a sense of entitlement. Demand and everything must be given for free. The rage they feel when thwarted is turned onto women and children because they're soft targets. Lockdown + loss of income has made it far worse.

Means nothing just saying it - do something- you spent so much time & effort catching surfers & smokers - do something real now

Condemn and move on. That’s the approach demonstrated for years.

Then what Mr President?

We are going to need you to do more than just condemn Sir.....

Good day I know it's not easy to ask please help out with food voucher please I'm hungry 😭😭😭😭 I'm not asking for money. My contacts are 0815472978. it's though please don't judge. Thank you for your time and God bless you.

Anyone can be president now. All you have to do is express your opinion.

Am sure hi is shocked

... and further does nothing about it 🤢🤧.

ON MEN AND WOMEN ?

Dont just condemn A.C.T!!!!!

If they stopped stealing and gave people dignity by means of a thriving economy, GBV wouldn’t be as prevalent! Lack of money making women dependent on men will always lead to disaster!

Phelele apho, akazukwenza nekx, akukhuphy nempempe le gwaaa,

That's good. A good start I tell you Mr. President..... Now let's do something about it. Mr. President where are you? Cyril we have work to do phela... 🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊 Hao where did he go now 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Non one read your article. Maybe put the whole story in the headline next time 😑

Condemning is not enough ING...

CyrilRamaphosa should end lockdown and get the SAPS to focus on these crimes instead of enforcing lockdown rules. All talk but no action

How much is enough...how many lives must be lost...how many families must suffer and face losing loved ones and children until action is taken. Woman and children play a significant role in society and need to be protected.

Anc is tiring shame. Ba tswafa

Take action big man...talking alone ain't enough...

Those who say he's doing nothing, what must he do exactly? Let's talk

Abuse against women and children should be treated like a pandemic. It should get disaster management, be put in lockdown and eradicated forever or it will effect South Africa forever, We will never know safety or prosperity in this country. We deserve better

Condemn only?

CyrilRamaphosa Condemning is not enough, it’s not going to protect us, IT HAS NOT, You need to stand up and fight for us. GBV has been a national epidemic forever and our justice system is not for women at all. RiseCyril

Shut down slay queens and slay men,teach people to fall in love for sex not for money after that record cases of GBV.

Tell Cele to do his job and stop looking for cigarette receipts

That condemnation has us shook.

This issue don't need only condemnation but actions.

Been condemning 🤦🏽‍♀️We need action!!

CR is “shocked and condemns” this violence. CR is blatantly ignoring this nation’s scream against GBV by keeping Cele. CR is unwilling to be a man and make the difficult choices – CeleMustChaila and CR must be ManEnough to do it.

What is the way forward. This is not the new normal we want to see. These monsters don't respect women's rights why treat them like babies. Punish them servearly.

No smoke without a fire.what cause all this killing?each corner of jozi is them selling what is illegal.cause they can't get enough of money.inshort for the love of money the will still die.and others starting to generals it is not like the

It’s not a rise, ALWAYS been this bad. Just “they” never took notice. Ostrich syndrome

If all things were equal this man would be removed as president because he has no clue how to lead this country but luckily for him he is a proxy for the powerful. cyrilramabillion StopKillingWomen Day81ofLockDown

For FS , I feel angry because he's being condemning every crisis and he does nothing about it , NOTHING , absolutely NOTHING. it is Very Clear the system had to Change, we can't have people killing women's and children's as they please and get away with it

Bullshitter with an accent ...the white peoples “new dawn”

Really not enough bro

Besides condemning what else is he doing about this matter?

Is that all he can do/say?

Condemn?

CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA kunini ni condema?!

If they found someone who is selling alcohol illegally SANDF would be on its way already. But ke it's just womens lives on the line here.. Our president will just condemn... That's it.

Shocked and amazed as always

All the Palooka CyrilRamaphosa can do is be shocked, blame whites & apardheid...

Everyday everyday ke condemn . DO SOMETHING!
