Newsletter| Corruption thrived under the ANC’s watch, former Tshwane mayor Kgosientso Ramokgopa has admitted. But he says the party is self-correcting and the fact that it instituted the state capture inquiry is proof of that

Ramokgopa was speaking in Auckland Park on Tuesday night at “Battle Ground Gauteng”, a political debate organised by City Press and Rapport.

“It was an admission on the part of the ANC that we had wronged our people – the poor in particular – through our conduct and the manner in which the state had conducted itself that in fact they had stolen from the people which was an antithesis of what the ANC is about. It was a misarticulation of the kind of future that we wanted to construct so the best thing to do was that we started to self correct,” said Ramokgopa.

EFF Gauteng chairperson Mandisa Mashego emphasises that her party will ensure that land expropriation without compensation happens. Picture: Palesa Dlamini/City Press “Cyril Ramaphosa himself is guilty of illicit financial misconduct and theft through his Shanduka shares at Lonmin. If you want evidence of that go and check one of the professors at Wits who was one of the people studying what had happened with Lonmin and what led to the 34 miners being shot down and killed in Marikana.”

The state capture inquiry means nothing . We need arrests and convictions

Most crimals 'self correct' in jail, in SA they just say we have stolen enough and got caught, so we will stop for a bit and 'self correct'

How can you claim to be weeding the field while sitting under the shade of the weed?

waldimar Self corrected. Hence all those convincingly implicated in corruption had been removed from ANC management structures. Eisj. Ja, imagine they neglected to do that huh? Whst would one then have thought?

De best thing is to open a case against corrupt anc ppls, stop playing with our emotions dr

waldimar Until someone is arrested and they start recovering the money there is no evidence of self correction. Most enquiries are simply window dressing

He is Dr. Ramokgopa

If you admit to 'thriving under corruption' no amount of 'self correcting' will ever absolve you !! YOU DESERVE TO WEAR ORANGE OVERALLS !!

The Anc was forced by former PP Thuli Madonsela to institute the StateCaptureInquiry.They were refusing hence she went to court and won

ANC says it's 'thrilled' with by-election results | IOL NewsThe ANC on Thursday said it was 'thrilled' with its results in by-elections held on Wednesday in six provinces. I won't be surprised if these elections are rigged by the ANC & EFF. I've asked the IECSouthAfrica on numerous occasions how they planned to ensure that the elections won't be rigged, not a single response to date. Zero. Zilch. Nadda. How will those counting the votes know that it's on legitimate ballot papers? Shows the ongoing unholy ignorance of their voters who choose poverty thinking over growth and prosperity - 🤢

OPEN LETTER TO CYRIL RAMAPHOSA: Is Ace Magashule's ANC your ANC?Mister President, your party gave us grand corruption, state capture and impunity.

PieterDuToit ...and the police did what at the launch to stop the thugs? PieterDuToit Is this also the ThumaMina of 'New Dawn '...... ? Or the same 'Old Dusk ' from the Bunker of ROT.....?
