😴😴😴😴

Be sure to tune in! Covid_19 Coronavirus WeAreCput WeAreCputMedia

He gonna talk about 👇🏿

I’ll catch the highlights. I’ve lost all faith in CyrilRamaphosa. Nothing he says will be truly ‘his’: he is simply a puppet of MYANC and DlaminiZuma. I’ll skip the address tonight, thanks. 👎🏻👎🏻

Think he is going to announce his full support of NDZ for president next time.

He is going to battle to keep a straight face ... should rather talk with his mask on ... Our one term president ... Then back to McDonalds

We waiting

More like 10pm....

He has addressed us more than any other president in South Africa

Why will the CyrilRamaphose like some other countries not take questions in his address to the nation. All he does is give directives and ministers come out to explain. We need to hear what he thinks as the President of the nation.

Time for protest action, my fellow real South Africans

Mxim

7pm tonight? Are you sure He needs a new watch. Very rude to always keep his sheep waiting. I'm not one. Fool me once shame you, fool me twice shame on me. Lockdown didn't get me bored enough for this crap.

He will first summarize the last 2 months of lockdown for 45 mins... then tell us some provinces are going to level 3 😑😬😩 all ppl wanna hear is u can buy dop and ciggs 😂😂😂

My fellow south africans it's with much pain n sorrow am here tonight addressing u n asking u to bear with me for WE GOING BACK TO LEVEL 5 LOCKDOWN😫😫

Please tell him : he has known since last night today Sunday at 19h00 pm: please have some respect towards the country and be on time , you have been notified way in advance to prepare : you have a great day.

Ngavele ngeswela izithakazelo!

More importantly, when will NDZ be explaining what she wants for us?

Explain this cyril....where are the police here.....

At least Jacob Zuma had balls. He did what he wanted to do and not what any other minister wanted. Cyril the puppet.

Why the excitement? He is going to tell us there is not much to tell until they are done consulting.

Gosh this is getting tedious.

People in my area don't worry about levels and most shops are operating for 2 weeks already. No Police visible anymore.

SouthAfrica endthelockdownSA ENDLOCKDOWNNOW

7pm or 7:30pm or 8pm it should be reported

Each time there's these news I get anxious & dont feel moved because wow the struggles continue. 2020 has been a movie.

NDZMustFall

Can somebody tell him not to tell us unnecessary things n just get to the point, 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

CyrilRamaphosa does come across as weak & not in control of GovernmentZA. Compounded by low public trust & credibility over the years MYANC DlaminiZuma DrZweliMkhize RonaldLamola JacksonMthembu_ MbalulaFikile LindiweSisuluSA In politics, perception is truth.

gather around kids, family meeting. we know dads gonna be late tho 😭

Um...err.. Ish......mu baas DlaminiZuma ...I am the weak and useless CyrilRamaphosa ....ummm errrrr

Don't want to hear anything this bullshitter have to say, he is the puppet of the ANC. He only reads down everything from a piece of paper what was written down for him by NDZ and here corrupt ANC cronies. Why listen to him, the truth is not told

Nope. no longer interested. We’ll await mrs Zuma.

Cant make it, sorry that's Carte Blanche time slot...

ChristinaStarbu Get you bullshit meter ready.

I don't think I will bore myself 🤔

Bla bla bla

This should be interesting...

ChristinaStarbu She sending the bell boy again....what fumbling business is going to be this time....

ChristinaStarbu

I've always wondered why this guy never takes questions.

Awesome! Will have my coffee ready bt 7pm and await in anticipation 7pm ....... 7.30pm ...... 8pm ..... ....... 8.30pm ..... Aah, finally! 8.45pm when half the nation is asleep in their shacks.

Illegal trade is out of hand . Our business is closing and even I have to hussle to find tobacco for my mother. Come on guys

CyrilRamaphosa for once do the right thing and LISTEN to the people of SA. endthelockdown dlaminizumamustfall

They must open parliament n not send our lil brothers n sisters to school hypocrites

Mr President pls act wisely our economy was distroyed bcus of the Guptus And now the sympathisors are pulling the last roots out . 🤔

Hopefully DlaminiZuma will be happy with CyrilRamaphosa's speech.... actually it's no problem, she will just reverse it on Monday if he says anything she 'collective' does not like!

When is NDZ addressing us? That’s the more important one

Yawn !!!! And miss carteblanchetv - never.

Continuing ban on cigarettes, DESPITE WORLD LEADING COVID19 SCIENTIST confirming smoking protects against COVID19, and banning it can be DISASTROUS, but yet they persist in their DOGMA. Seems micro minority anti-smoking lobby has their ear! This ban has NOTHING TO DO WITH COVID19

Will dlaminizuma have his balls in her pocket or under her doek? The CrookInADoek must fall. dlaminizumaMustFall NDZMustFall

More like 9pm

Another men bashing speech loading.

Just to say nothing,

If he's not by my plasma screen by 7pm I'm reporting yall for fake news

7.30pm that's 8.45pm

More of the same crap! Fellow South Africans, we know it’s been hard for you, please allow us to screw you and the economy at least until every South African is broke or homeless! Thank you, NDZ will address you shortly to tell you no smokes or alcohol!

Are we getting another 45 min speech of nothing or actual answers on what I going on PresidencyZA

Count me out

Ok 7:30pm it is..

Hearts will break tonight. NDZMustFall please.

I am waiting?

Don't trust this man people

You mean 8:30pm. He never made his first appointment of it is before 8:30.

He is just gna talk shit again because he is not an honourable man

Why doesn't he take questions from the media. Getting more like a Communist State

Maybe it would be best for him to keep quite nd wait for the day they decide to lift the lockdown...playing with our feelings like this is not good since we hardly smoke nd drink.

Bawo, Thixo Somandla, Buyinton’ ubugwenxa bam? Azi senzen’ ebusweni beNkosi, Bawo, Thixo Somandla? Azi senzeni na? Azi senzeni Nkosi yam, Sigqibana nje! Emhlaben’ Sibuthwel’ ubunzima Bawo, Thixo Somandla.

Aich we gonna hear that 300Mbps English, hope you installed dictionaries in yals phones.

At 20h00pm

Lockdown is over,yippeee.

To be quite honest, I don't care anymore.

This mans is gonna fux with our lives again

Typo? Should surely read 'bullshit'? 🤔

The suspense is killing me

I'll listen tomorrow from Dr Nkosazane Zuma

We going straight to level 2

I'd rather wait for NDZs briefing just so I don't confuse myself.

I hope its gud news

News24 ewnupdates How can anyone still believe PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa As it is now clear that DlaminiZuma is firmly in charge of SA and that Ban on alcohol and cigarettes will not be lifted until level 1? We never voted for her, but she is the current president of SA

He had better give Angie Motsheka the sack. She deserves it. What other minister has held the same job for 11 years?

I hope and pray that our Hon President have definitely good news for his fellow South Africans, Tata Matamela please take the bull by the horns

In Uncle Olivers words

8 pm to be exact

The Somizi in me wanna say the president is gonna announce level 3 and bottle stores will open. Sibuthenga alphabetically.

NDZ's spokesperson is also president 😳

Should there be no alcohol and cigarettes he must know that my lockdown will end. With immediate effect

We want to see who is really in charge, Nkosazana or him?

Is he actually going to say something this time?, cause I think theres some paint drying I might need to watch.

7 or 19:15?

I'm no longer excited about this talks, he gets overruled anyway 😭🙄
