You shouldn’t jump the gun

So you the Citizen couldn’t wait until such pronouncements were made by President CyrilRamaphosa. Where is your discipline and self control?

When the President make pronouncement without informing political parties, it would be said that he is not an inclusive leader. When he tries to take parties in his confidence, they go ahead and undermine his authority by leaking information🙆🏾😢
