President Ramaphosa was better than Ramaphosa because now that all business of South Africa using electric but fail fixed load shedding problem . If Zuma going back position president going fixed electric because Guthrie is coming back south Africa

Wisdom coming from JGZ_Foundation . What does he know about legitimacy when he is illegitimatehimself Comeongiveusabreak

Ramaphosa Receive R10 million a month from Glencore as a bribe and he has allegedly been bribed since 2018

Put Zuma in prison with his besties the Guptas and throw away the keys.S.A deserves justice.He has no shame.His disgusting.

Zuma must futsek. He needs to go to his grave quietly.

He hasn't healed from Nasrec loss

None of those Presidents of South Africa since 1994 have been fit to hold office.

😄

The holier than thou attitude is pathetic

Who cares bro....6/9 kuyafana

Ahhhhh these madala🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣....

There have been liars and distorters forever, in every political system, but no one has come close to this one and his friends in pushing their own, false vison of reality. His lens into the world is that every criticism of him is a lie.

He is correct, Ramaphosa won through bribes

Calling the kettle black hmmmm...🤔🤷🏾‍♂️

So it means his election in 2007 and 2012 was also not legitimate coz of the use of money?

I wonder how much the 100%Zulu boy and ZuMantashe cost. The use of money is rife from branch level up. Those not willing to be transactional hardly emerge. Membership is bought for branches

This old man is trying by all means to discredit our President, so that he can have a partner to accompany him on his corruption journey. He dismally failed South Africans as a the first man.

Now that ATM is facing some difficult headwinds in terms of removing Ramaphosa before the start of ANC elective conference, the Oldman has therefore decided to come out to assist & finish the project himself. What a narcissist character...

Coming out of the mouth of the owner of 'Honest Joe Motors '

He has forgotten that he became the president by default

What a disgrace by the former president

I think Mr zuma needs to report Ramaphosa for fraud and corruption

Zuma is obsessed with attacking Ramaphosa. The very man that MYANC rally behind him when he was facing rape charges. Today he has the audacity to call Ramaphosa names. How soon & convenient he forgets the organizations discipline of rally behind a leader.

This is cheap propaganda, both candidates were funded; worse is that his faction was funded with public money stolen from municipalities & other govt depts. It's a culture in the ANC that during campaigns factions receive funds clandestine

Open a case parolee

Not something new you know i. Started in Polokwane where Zuma was elected

The joke is on us, South Africans. Msholozi was at the center of the allegations related to State capture. He showed us a finger and dodged to give us his side of the story. Now, he has a gall to address public events. But hey, he knows that RSA can tolerate lots of BS!

Oh god go away you thief, stop talking and give back the money

Yet he is cleaning up your mess you left behind and more to clean up. Dirt needs to be placed in bins.

Did he mention Ramaphosa?, can you confirm that?

but he was ur deputy

Nonsense. What did the ANC candidates use to fund previous campaigns with? Oxygen? KFC? or tenderpreneur recycled state money?

...terminal illness wasted

The guy is profoundly jealous and bitter he must sit at home and enjoy his pension before the state capture cases start .

I think Mr RAM learn it from the best Mr JZ,worse JZ never make decisions but de secret society was talking divisions 4 him n he end up selling de whole country.Some ppl simple forget easy while thy still running de same race,ask ur self why some ppl thyr cases last for years?

If not why Ramaphosa don't want unsealed CR 17 bank account if there nothing fishing he supposed come confident and unsealed them, but he refuses to do that knowing very well there is lot that is not correct

I wonder who is the fraudster? Who is the man who is accused of fraud in the arms deal, receiving underhand money while president, a man who was charged with rape but got free on a legal technicallity, etc?

The only 'illegitimate' ('terminally ill') person spewing the Bell Pottinger-type narrative campaign is 9 Wasted Years Zuma. Very dangerous tactic

Owayencintisana naye akabanga nemali eyanele yokuthenga amavoti. Kodwa bobabili bawathenga amavoti.

Zumas memory is failing guys. Show sympathy for the old man. He forgets how he gained power. He forgot 2007-2009. He was the 1st to push a sitting ANC president through the 'recall' policy. Branches were also accused of being bought. Former IFP members flooded ANC ranks.

South Africa has an ANC problem.

Is he seeking another term in office to finish SA off once and for all?

😊 At least today you're reporting real stuff🤣🤣🤣

Yet this fellow can steal a country and is protected by the legal system. Pity the poor chop who steals a liter of milk and a loaf of bread.

Naturally he will say that as the dishonorable ex lost.

Lol, like he was.

''' in other words... the use of money to buy positions meant that Zuma himself was not elected properly and democratically

That’s true

The last president that was Democratically elected was Nelson Mandela. At least he didn't have to buy votes.

He did not win elections fair and square himself. He used Malema to humiliate Mbeki during Limpopo conference for him to advance to the Presidency of the ANC

Zuma must rest. He is the worst enemy of our democracy.

How is this not paying to himself. The problem about being in the power sit,ia how they don't think about the future. If he had forced corruption to be at alow then alot of this would not be the case.

What about him & his ghost candidates in Mangaung

Sour grapes.

Zuma was not presidential from the get go. imagine the former president entertaining gossip and being bitter at his collegue.

Zuma must rest....... He will never become President of South Africa again, unless he preside over Nkandla not Mzansi

And its no problem for you voetsekzuma to steal money from country on a daily basis

Are we talking about the one who used money looted from government departments ,municipalities and public entities to fund NDZ campaign? Because he used the slush fund he thinks he’s smart? The one who organised a lecture to talk about OR and couldn’t say anything about OR?

The MYANC are notorious for buying votes, be it good parcels, T'-shirts or brown envelopes fill of cash. To criticize Ramaphosa is blatant hypocrisy.

Is there still people who are listening to this old man, can somebody please tell him Chomane Chomane of Lesedi FM is at home on pension, he doesn't border new blood like Thabo Mokone

Zuma destroyed the country and opened the way for inactive Cyril. The ANC in total is destructive.

This guy literally ran the country from Saxonwold he must just keep quiet.

But it was fine when the guptas did it. Why. Because he was receiving the money!!!

The election of Ramaphosa was democratic… You can never change izifebe zemali…They will always choose money over principles …The whole ANC is corrupt finish n Klaar even … the their Gogos namakhela akhona…

This is some low-life Shit😂

justbongza Mad this one

Zuma, 4-letter swearword, let me remind you that your election as president was unconstitutional and illegal. Despite that finding by the Concourt, you remained president to sink this country into the sewer pits and despite all the facts, you still claim innocence. DISGUSTING.

Last kicks of a dying horse....shame...the noose is tightening.

He is bitter and broke 😂😂😂

Ofcoz we all know bra that ramaphosa is not supposed to be a president and he is no ones president..just a cowardly mole of a thug that is submissive to the enemy .. It's Jacob Zuma who supposed to be our president .. Put there by Pfizer to extinct all Africans. Head of Africa.

U starting 2 giv CR power now

Just like his buddy Biden....

And NDZ would have been voted democratically with the SSA money. Uyanya lobaba

That's why we have CR17BankStatements

Fact

First he accused CR of treason at a press conference with members of opposition parties. Now he is accusing CR of rigging the ANC elections through bribery.🤔

ANC is Divided today bcos of this Toxic gupta Wedge driver

Sies... This one is now showing his true Colours that he is not a True leader but just a Gaslighting toxic Wedge driver🤔

Zuma use taxpayers money to fund NDZ17, CyrilRamaphosa fail to protect the public from this PresJGZuma lies

U a joke

One word: GUPTAS

zuma has nothing to loose, his children are well fed. he will continue dividing the nation until his death bed. all African leaders do the same. they destroy the country and die in peace. that's mentality they have. They don't care about anyone as long as they achieve their goals

Dey all de same even the opposition parties 😭😭😭can’t we have smart working governors in office ..we need educated people …we need civilised people …we need visionaries ..I have de wildest dream of conscientizing our youth .dez Madalas wil kill us all one day .

Says one of the most corrupt Presidents the world has known !

the only problem with him, he always tells the same nation that can be influenced easly. let him go to other nation and say all this. thats were he will see there is life outside kzn.

Nothing new here. Sadly those are ANC tendencies. Now they are doing the same to their opposition parties in municipalities.

And you got Mbeki’s job how?

looser!

🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lol….not him being Trump 😂…stolen election

Yoh anc is a headach, y didnt he intervened... n now that its going to be elections they they pinpoint on one another.... anc we r not our grannies

Can we get this clown in jail already he stole the country dry and yet he still sits on the sideline trying to get back. Enough now he and his followers causing more harm than any good

What does the state capture report say about this man...why is he behaving like he has not been implicated anywhere in those volumes of this report🤔🤔🤔

I thought he is busy dieing. Liar and he instigate people and belong in jail.

Both candidates used cash and government positions to lure votes in an internal political party leadership election to win. That on its own is grossly corrupt and fatal to the election outcome

That is TRUE.And this,doesnt only apply to Ramaphosa alone. Every Member of a party who use money to buy positions,is not a legitimate leader.If you know people need you to be their leader,why do you use money to BRIBE them?YOU ARE DEFINATELY NOT SURE THAT THEY WILL VOTE FOR YOU.

It is President Zuma to you.

After TM left ANC presidents like Zuma bought their presidency with brown envelopes..it started at Polokwane..get a brown envelope u take a picture of the ballot paper with ur X as proof..Zuma must not act as a saint

SSA money was used for the NDZ campaign. CR knows.

Remember how Ace got the SG position?

Monkey calling Gorilla ugly

Was he elected properly during his reign🤣🤣🤣They disrespected the real president Thabo Mbeki and ordained him to ruin the country

uyanya lona.

Heal madala.

Why give this guy relevance? He had his time and screwed up big time. 9 wasted years....

Hahahahah. The pot calling the kettle black

voetsakzuma!

And the the stolen money from the SSA would have been fine for NDZ to win VoetsekANC VoetsekANC VoetsekANC

And you were elected because you can count ?

Wenzeni u Ramaphosa? during the Arms deal he was a businessman during Gupta's time and Nkandla scandal and the VBS loan done by you.Wenzeni u Ramaphosa.

Says the pot to the kettle!!

Old man must think of another strategy cause clearly this Movhango approach isn’t working anytime cause we are just not interested. I mean even KZN ANC isn’t interested anymore

He stole R5 billion from SOEs to prop up NDZ presidential campaign in 2017

Enjoy your retirement Tsotsi you captured SA with cruel Indians

This guy has a problem with all the people he put in place.superiorlogic SouthAfrica

One thing about this old man he is a lairing manipulating criminal that what he is period

Same as u....u bought pple for ur presidency and it was paid for by the Guptas mr Zuptas

Says probably the most corrupt one ..! Amazing ,has all this to say but not in court where he wanted his day ! Amazing also how his health has recovery in recent months 🤣

Zuma under -budgeted his campaign for NDZ at Nasrec. Now he is worth less than a dairy cow.

This dude is still having Nasrec palpitations this many years later?

So no money was used in the conference that elected Zuma? That narrative is of a soar loser🤣🤣🤣🤣 an inheritance of the Presidency perhaps due to cadre credentials 🤣🤣🤣🤣

They are trying so hard to bite the Buffalo 🙆‍♂️ and they will never win

South Africa once had a President.

Well Zuma doesn’t pay for anything he just steals all the money!

He would claim this. Sore loser

Gupta curry is still too hot 🔥

And you were? Bwahahaha

Still holding grudges and now he's even saying bad things about Ramaphosa, this man will never grow that's why Duduzane Zuma behaves like this I now see where she's getting everything!!!

If the party can't have 'legitimate' then the country is in trouble

Let me remind former President Zuma that his son& Guptas used bags of money to support NDZ Presindential campaign & keep quiet about that!!!! Shame on you for misleading the public interest of NDZ!!!

Let me remind the former President Zuma that the abnormal Mickey Mouse political culture of buying branches,members for position &power was started by Zuma 100%Zulu Boy/Zuma for Presindent that was Promoted unofficial Presidential t-shirts that led to the burning of Mbeki t-shirt

Why are media still paying attention to this total wicked crook, this hustler, conartist ? A complete remorseless psychopath.

Hou jou bek Zuma.

Eish uBaba is going the way of Mugabe, his syphilis symptoms are taking over

So naive, 🤔.

State money was used for NDZ campaign

It’s not make sure🤞😄

Zuma is a big loser he still continuing speaking nonsense he must go to jail the is enough evidence of his corupt relationship with Indians brothers including shabir shaik so he must go to jail and leave president RAMAPHOSA alone his time is over he must go sleep on his bed

When your bitter you wil always speak nonsense president RAMAPHOSA is voted by peace loving safrican zuma was the most corrupt president ever had in safrica he was empowering the Indians brother instead of empowering black safrican now today he speaks nonsense he must go to jail

Wasn't this thief dying not too long ago!!

lol

He removed Mr Mbeki

He should know all about it. He paid bribes both occasions he was elected

Obviously Ramposa did not pass a suitcase full of money to zuma

Arthur should be heavily scrutinized for the release of FORMER president jacob

So desperate to become president again, flippen looter

Got to say he looks remarkably healthy for a ma who can't do he's constitutionally court ordered jail time

CyrilRamaphosa can you jail this clown already

Why does this guy act like he is innocent

I have waisted my two hours today listening to directionless and factional political statements by Zuma

We're told that returnees from exile & found township & rural ANC branches fully functional. & this is bcuz home-base revolutionaries like Winnie Mandela & many of her comrades worked hard to keep things together. But instead, returnees never appreciated all this, they destroyed

The pot calling the kettle black.

It's understandable coming from terminally ill person 🇿🇦🇿🇦 we love South Africa

😂😂😂😂😂

How much money did he spend?

😁😁😁😁😁😄😄😄

Aaaahhh please .... MAAMPAARA Zuptha....!!!

The most corrupt 5 years later is still fighting a national conference outcome where he lost? He controlled PP Office, launched bogus Phalaphala scandal and got a false medical parole! Attempted hijacking Zondo Com to hide his corruption, futseg Zuma

Zuma's election was not proper say me, what is the point here

The former president tried every trick in a book to stop the current president from the second term,Phalaphala was his trump card,and these,,,,,

😂 Go sleep JZ.
