she's silent in Zuma's presidency

Me I won't be surprised, he's bad guy for this country but you as ANC members you know that already but you blind eye...ANC members will regret is too late

Ramaphosa will never fire anyone. They guy said he believes in unity so I guess they can insult him all they want but he will never fire them. The only thing he will do is give everybody a promotion to make sure that ANC stay united. Ai South Africa is a Banana Republic Shame.

She must be shown the big entrance door

Fire her, that will NEVER HAPPEN, because she is one of the anc corruption no 1 circle and 'MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS'

Mathata a ANC ke gore, go a twe o lwetse freedom. Seo se raa gore lefa ba ira melato e e leng dismissable, ga goirwe sepe. Lo mo ncheng Mza...until leng ga ke itse. After Zondo report, 9 cases nkabe dile ko court, owaai - zero.

Fire her for what? An opinion piece🤷‍♀️? Camaaan!

Calls from who and why must she be fired what happened to freedom of speech. There are corrupt pple in this draining our economy dry. You are busy with a article yerrr siya delelwa lana

Nah. The process is already handling the constitutional delinquent. Ramaphosa knows the mindset of the majority of ANC membership. Lindiwe is looking for their sympathy vote. Until the ANC improves the quality of its membership, Ramaphosa’s hands are tied.

Calls by who and when were they made as they are seemingly mounting... Liars

She must go...we need ministers who make noise about issues that affect majority South Africans. Water,Housing, Electricity,crime....not a Judge who is doing their best to get rid of the rot.

Where are the calls for him to fire other useless ministers,country was turned in to a circus in July no calls n look at our railway system it's all jolly

Some ministers have the mind of n small child they can't even read properly but still they are in the top positions Ramaphosa please man do yor Job and get your cabinet in order

Ramaphosa does not fire or get rid of anyone. 0

Ramaphosa does not have the backbone. He is jellyfish.

Wouldn’t be a smart move to fire her🤔

Calls yamasimba🚮

Comrade Lindiwe is cruising nicely.

Comrade Lindiwe is going no where.

Firing her will strengthen her presidential campaign ,so she must stay as Minister of Table Mountain and Kruger National park

Pressure from the DA? Lol

There's no consequences in ANC. Cyril wants unity with cobras and Mambas in his own house. But because he left them so long, they have become so comfortable. There's really no helping those who reside to open their eyes.

🔥 her for what exactly

Ramaphosa will never fire anyone from his cabinet, he's too diplomatic.

Just a reminder

We are living in a joke country.

Which south africans

Uma aphule umthetho makabhekane nawo sifuna abaholi abaqhotho ayi gebengu

It is calls by you and your white racists. Otherwise no such thing.

Calls from who exactly Care to setup a poll right here on social media to gauge the success of your propaganda?

For what exactly for asking a legitimate question in our jurisprudence it is legitimate to ask if the unitary approach is really united and that ia not an insult, the constitution is ours all of us not the rich, it must benefit all and it must better the lives of all.

Of course it’s not going to happen. When has Ramaphosa ever done anything for the country and against the ANC?

Calls mounting from who? Your Stellenbosch bosses LS22 akayindawo

'The funders calls are mounting for president to fire lindiwe Sisulu'

Calls from who? 🙄🙄🙄

he will win 2nd term resoundingly Lindiwe is a non- entity

CyrilRamaphosa don’t fire LindiweSisuluSA it’s a trap. The same one President Mbeki walked straight into by firing Indoda yakeNkandla

When it is a cde like Lindiwe Sesulu, WMC make noise. When it is WMC candidate like Oscar Mabuyane, WMC keep quite.

Let him try. It is going to be good for our country. Remember Anc is one. Division will continue and South African will benefit. I can't wait for this party split into multiple parties. We are suffering because of not individuals because of Anc. It is called Collective Decisions

Fire her for speaking the thruth? Remember when you guys used to praise ppl like Pravin Gordhan and Blade for attacking Zuma publicly when they didn't like what he was doing. You never called for their axing. So Lindiwe is going nowhere just chill and get over yourselves

You should reporting about her being right instead of her being persecuted shamelessly by clowns for a plate at a restaurant (paid with a credit card) and a bond house in the burbs.

Currently every one knows he was a saviour furring not an option without him ANC dead

Kubi kubi

The worst part it's black journalists working for the white master to destroy and peddle lies about a black woman. KgothatsoMadisa and AmandaKhoza. Sies!

For what?

Why not fire people like Angie Motshekga who is failing a black nation with useless education department.Yourchildren are at private schools,you don't mind, but you mind Lindiwe because she will take over from your puppet and deals with you, but rea assured it will happen, Decemb

The objective reporting should read 'CALLS ARE MOUNTING FOR RAMAPHOSA TO RESIGN' When are going to read about this topic from your Newsrooms?

Lol let him try, let his stupidity makes him say those kind words.

Family meeting likely tonight?

Mounting calls from where?

Spineless Spyril.

What about cadres like OscarMbuyane ?

But I thought the president doesn't have the power to fire ministers

He won't because there are no calls mounting 🤷🏾‍♂️

These Calls are from Who Exactly? Media and Propaganda Sies You are Shameless.

Sa journalism!

Nope..

We seem to have forgotten that their focus is to unite the ANC and nothing else

Calls from where? Patricia DeLille lied about service and maintenance at parliament...calls are not mounting for her but for someone who penned opinion piece? Take us serious please... a se rena di domkop ka mokgo nowe

The media will fire her.. not the man. He wud never, got no balls plus he knows it wud be a suicide move.

There are no grounds.

Unleash the hounds...sorry I mean the dogs with no teeth...

Who is calling? The handful of handlers u mean?

You are instructing him , you are the boss right?

Out of respect for daddy, would be the assumption. Nepotism/cadre deployment, is at the root of our government's inability to do what governments are suppose to do.....RUN THE COUNTRY, not line the pockets. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Calls from where,what she said affects majority of black people, only White settlers and Indians using the white media and whites are so desperate,why not fire Mabuyane who stole,it is about his removal in December,not about what she said,

Knowing South African Journalism, there are probably ZERO calls... You most probably fabricating 'facts'.... But keep writing nonsense 😉

cANCer will never ever do the right thing….

There are no calls at all, the call is just on your head Timeslive. If Cyrel is weak he will do what you want. But if he is a real President he will allows debates in South Africa to take place.

Media is the one who's pushing Ramaphosa to fire L Sisulu not ANC

Which Calls... Call from who?

It will never happen....it will spark more divisive internal strife.

He won't.

Lies.... There's no calls of such.. Hai tsek

Calls from the DA?

No he won't, Sisulu is untouchable she is like a heavy burden that nobody is able to lift.

This nonsense of so called 'mounting pressure' is a typical example of a state that is captured and controlled by few questionable characters hiding behind the name Civil society.

Calls from few Soros funded cabal? How many people are affiliated to so called civil society compare to those who endorse Lindiwe? we can't held at ransom by few people just because they get funding from questionable racist, evil rich people. Tsek....

Sensationalism or peer pressure mara yin le?

Calls from Who? Rupert and DA. He wouldn't dare he knows what at stake.

Fire a delinquent? The ANC? Never have never will!

Same Cyril who said he can't discipline ministers when called to discipline Pravin? Calls from who? Nonsense.

Niyanya you WMC mouth piece, you don’t represent the masses. Cadre Lindiwe is not going anywhere.

Mxm, He can't even fire underperforming ministers, and you really expect to fire minister for mere opinion piece.

Call by who? Stratcom media 😂😂😂 you must be joking.

I dare him

Where are this calls coming from?

Fokof

For what?

wmc are a bunch of idiots I tell you. you are the ones who agreed when he said he doesn't have the power to discipline ministers when jamnadas was on the chopping block today he has the power...lol

Let him try.

Calls from main colonialist... who are claiming to be South Africans today. Other calls from mentally colonised clever blacks. With media that orchestrates do devalue every black activist, who expose their pathetic disgusting agendas.

Who is calling

Who makes that call except media and academics? And we all know that academics are administrators and mouthpieces of neo-colonialism.

Tourism meaning white monopoly that hate the truth ?

Has Cyril Ramaphosa ever acted on anything?

He won't fire her bcoz he has to play a devil's advocate and appease the hotheads in the ANC, and also the REBELS.

Calls from who? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Stellenbosch and Thuma Mina.

Calls from those who paid for his presidency. Fotshek

He doesn't have powers to fire ministers

What calls the media calls and the Elite calls who captured Ramaphosa. Sit down

Couple of months ago I came across a recommendation about Evelynclark777 wealth how he helped investors to earn lots of money with their investments. and I decided to give a trial with the little I have. Now my little has turned into something great.

ANC rats 🐀

TRUTH is hated. To protect the status quo. If you speak it you're a threat to society. Are we free?

Lol.

The strawman president will do NOTHING...as usual. 'My fellow south africans....' 🥱

Although she's grossly inappropriate is it grounds for dismissal

John Steenhuisen’s call say it!!

Call by who?

Calls from who?😂

Calls from DA & afriforum

Here is a discussion of national importance. Cease seeking for others to be sacked for expressing their views. Plagiarised or not. Discuss our dying infrastructure under the watch of MbalulaFikile and CyrilRamaphosa taking no action

Tell him to fire mbalula

He's too timid to do that.

This is not a banana republic where you can fire a minister of her opinion. Other ministers have done worse in public discourse...

Botik61945648 Last when stratcom ordered for Zinzi Mandela to be recalled,it meant more than recall,...poisoning and death We know what Ramaphosa did to marikana mineworkers, PhoenixMassacre,Gavin Watson, bosasa witnesses, Phadima Fukula,traditional leaders etc

Calls mounting from because we support mama Lindi's stance on this matter

😂🤣😂the anc gets orders from the media

Calls from who? Thumamina media group?

“Calls” from where 😳😳😳😳😳😳🤣😂🤣😂 Stellies and Sandton aren’t countries

Calls mounting from WHO?

if it was a man? would they feel the same way when juju mocked parliament?

Calls from who ? 😂🤣😂🤣

Ramaphosa has never been able to make the hard decisions that are necessary to be a good leader. That is why he has been such a failure.

Not gonna happen. CyrilRamaphosa is not that President who actually has power to fire Ministers otherwise he would not be harbouring all this deadwood

We are not calling for CyrilRamaphosa to fire Lindiwe Sisulu, but since what media says matters to him, he can do it. We want CyrilRamaphosa to fire non performing Fikile Mbalula. You bunch are disgusting, peddling lies

yobona pipi lenyoka

He doesn't have powers to discipline ministers.

Calls from who? White media please man. Please. Stop this thing of lying trying to steer nonsese

Call are mounting from ordinary citizens for Ramaphosa to resign 🙏🏿

There is no greater joy than having financial stability and a life free of debts, that’s why I keep tweeting about Hithermann123 it has been a pleasure collaborating with you...there is no other way I can show my appreciation other than tweeting the good deed you have done

Calls are mounting from who?

Calls from who on earth ?

Calls are not mounting for him to fire Ministers for not doing their job, but only to fire a minister for speaking. Cool.

Calls from Stellenboch

Casac Yona! hayikhona !

For what? This newspaper is drunk xem

Fired for what exactly?spitting facts

He won't fire them , he shall reshuffle them. So they can f**k up another dept even more. Very few qualified in the fields they are allocated to.

Calls from Stellenbosch?

Cyril Ramaphosa will neutralise the enemy by keeping them unemployed,Lindiwe Sisulu might gain support and sympathy if shes unemployed,The strategy is to fire her after ANC conference, Ramaphosa will teach us the principal of keep your friends close,Your enemies closer

Call by who?

But no one is calling for CyrilRamaphosa to act on Mbalula for this. We living in a very interesting times.

“The Council for the Advancement of the South African Constitution (Casac) has called for Sisulu’s sacking after her attack on the constitution and judiciary.” Stellenbosch is pressed…

Awu shame black people have fired from speak the truth ever since. President Zuma was arrested just for truth about commission. It not new. Mounting or not she spoke her mind correctly.

I know we all probably might have heard about Bitcoin but don't know how it works, I tried it in a week ago by a man who recommended me to LeticiaThomas90 on Twitter she guides me through and i made a return of $10500 after a week of trading, connect with her LeticiaThomas90

That will remain a wish to most of you.

Calls from Cupcake handlers 🤣

We have a run down railway system, thugs are on a reign of terror, people of Giyani have no water, 3 billion Rands later. But you draw the line at opinion pieces? Just wow!

The Guptas wouldn't have waisted time, she would be history by now

Wher is the evidence of such?

CyrilRamaphosa does not have,the balls to fire her.

Can never fire incompetent Pravin 🙄 stop bullying Mam Lindiwe

That's not even majority calls abelungu bancane kabi behlangene namambuka.

Cyril do do bugger all.....like when he did nothing for 9 plus 4 years.....the man has no balls, no backbone......

Let him try🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤞🤞🤞🤞

Mounting from who, whites Who is he to fire minister. Was she lying?

Calls coming from the White community and Kleva Blacks...

What calls? Y'all don't realize who you trying to fool nhee,,..🤭🤣 when Ramaphosa had to discipline Pravin you & the courts made an excuse for him not to..but then again leis & inconsistencies are your MO.. y'alls don't shy away from contradictions as long they serve y'all.

We no longer have media in SA.

Calls from Stellenboch huh?

Fire ANC royalty 😂😂😂 like that’s gonna happen

If you even remotely think that that could happen, then you’re naïve AF. She’s not going anywhere. She’s there to stay.

I want to share this because i want others to benefit from this opportunity that Julie_fx_trader gave to me i made R160,000 profit today. I strongly recommend this trader to those who look for a stable system.

No one does it better that she do, i did definitely choose her over any other trader! During those turbulent days i Invested $3000 and to my biggest shock i got the return of $22,500 in 7 trading days, Her diligence and sincerity can't be overlooked JULIE_FX_TRADER

Calls from settlers and their stooges?

ANC is not really concerned with SAn's opinion.

Why would he, for writing an opinion article?

You trying too hard shame, even that Stooge Ramaphosa knows very well that his time is up. He has got no power. So how much you got paid for this joke?

Vele kulindweni?

Who cares ? ANC doesn't' give damn about SA citizens.

Ladies and gentlemen look at your prepared President

Fire her for having opinions? 🙄

Let him do it

It could be a good move by Cyril to clean out all RET forces, so that when they remove him in December we vote out ANC completely. Even in the rural areas. Ace is using every platform he gets to gain momentum. So he must act swiftly

Calls fro. Whites tseg

I guess the call is not from matriculant John Stenheisen.

Why should she be fired,is Crly Ramaphosa s dictator. What happened to freedom of speech enshrined in the so called constitution. Who is putting pressure for her to he fired,which section of the community.

He don’t have guts! He is weak!

Fire her for what?

I just got another payout of R6Ok. can't just believe this, because I have lost so much in Bitcoin investment with several people, took a lot of loan until I was introduced to this great account manager who helped me recovered all my lost. thank you so much 🥰 MichaelWeldon_

Senifuna ukususa umsindo?

I can already hear the, 'I am shocked' from Cyril Ramaphosa

The whole cANCer EFT Needs to be Removed ASAP Rotten to the core, from top to bottom Who was the head of the deployment committee during Zupta years VoetsekcANCer VoetsekEFT WhereIsContainerAmo

When someone is straight forward and good at what they do, people will always speak for them, for me I would say give Michael90078 a try and see how good her platform could lead you to success

I'm bless the day i invested in your platform because since then i have achieved greatness LindaStouffes
