While you sat freezing in the dark, your president was having the time of his life in Europe, gallivanting with the most powerful men in the world, people he has often described as greedy colonisers, and worse.
He was relaxed, cheerful and seemed thoroughly at home. He is, at heart, the quintessential Europhile, our president...A subscription gives you full digital access to all Sunday Times content.Registered on the BusinessLIVE, Business Day or Financial Mail websites? Sign in with the same details.
If Europe is great, nonetheless, has hardly any natural resource in comparison to South Africa, why can't we use the same guidelines? Why do those who dispise opposite race, join their comfort in a land that embraces it? Enough said...
Why say wish you were here, when, South Africa has the potential to be worlds largest economy? Haven't we yet learnt from the mistakes of the past? Perhaps we should all perish and a new era take over in order to prove that we are far greater than what we think.
We are used to it already... it is just a bigger better version of GBV........ in this instance Government Based Violence...... We keep forgiving and hoping that he will change and love us one day.....
Cyril Ramaphosa has been living a comfortable lifestyle from the 1970's after he sold out his fellow comrades. Being a sell out of the Black people is the number 1 skill that he has mastered over the years... CyrilRamaphosamustgo
And sold us out probably
You are doing the good job Sunday times
Are the tables turning now with Sunday Times writing negative about the president!!!
Childish of Sunday Times
Barney Mthombeni must have run out of writing material. 😂🤣
And he surely has state-sponsored backup power installed at all his houses‼️ like all ministers I bet.
KETSO4_LIFE They r powerful to him not us
Let's not forget how Zuma created black millionaires
He just went there for photoshoot, useless president. PhalaPhalaFarmGate
mthombothi enjoy your new dawn, it’s just the way you liked it.
It's plain simple, that's business (govern.) trip busy trying to save SA.
He was on duty
Does he care about the country
You writing “toti” and wa pota…the man was not having the time of his life there and he was certainly not gallivanting, journalism is dead in SA, la bora..
The Ankole auction was fundraising for the G7 summit he attended, he walked into the meeting with just about 100 Million Rands.
Only people who knows what the country's president is elected for who can speak sense. International meetings are not important when there's a serious crisis in a country that elected you. Pls sweep at home first then go next door
Grow up
He may as well be president of another failed African state. So out of touch.
KONAKELE.
He's trying to save this destroyed country, could you?
Criminals elite and the Celebrity politician.
Cyril is destroying RSA with his ANC
😁😁😅
My President
You reporting is aimed at being controversial to just paint someone bad what happened to true impartial journalism even journalist want to become celebrities 😧 shame it’s a shame
Abramjee He's a president, not a eskom CEO, every country is in crisis, not only SA, do not criticize him because he's a black president, what about other presidents, their countries also have other crisis and problems,
good as useless, people are dying of poverty and families are in distress
So what must happen... Cancel all plans made well in advance.... Ninyile....
PresidencyZA this is completely disgusting behaviour from you. You don't care about South Africa at all
Why is Bill Gates in South Africa?
PhalaPhalaFarmGate GlencoreCorruption BringBackMkhwebane RamaphosaMustGo
Busy accumulating voyager miles at our expense... Soon the chickens will definitely come to Roast.... PhalaPhalaFarmGate if you please 👀🤣
What has RAMAPHOSA done to deserve this vitriol, the man is out on government business and he is condemned, what is he expected to do? Sing a song 'hambisa, buyisela umshini wabantu'🎵🎵🎵🎵
Rubbish of a predient that one.
Abramjee Being the head of the home isn't easy, you are expected to provide for the home, I lost my job during the pandemic and relied on the little money I had,things were hard until I met BernardMason07 and started Bitcoin trading, I earned R800,000 in 3 weeks thanks BernardMason07
When the world is heading towards through a more non-unilateral control by these group of nations, seeing CyrilRamaphosa going there is amusing. Did you come back with a slice of the $600Billion slavery money they pledge to give to us African beggars ?
White people and clever blacks are slowly but surely turning against their favourite.
Abramjee This guy should be arrested
What has Cyril Ramaphosa done for South Africans?
Barney? Wow 🔥
CyrilRamaphosa with crisis at home tou are enjoying to the fullest
It's a lie because he was not galavanting. We had lots of Loadshedding with him in the country. Even if he came back earlier loadshedding won't disappear with the sabotage at Eskom. You forgot that there was strike and IrvinJimSA was at the forefront.
They have found a substitute.
Can't he be assassinated or something?
What? So he's not supposed to be amongst powerful leaders in Europe, doing what Presidents do?
Sunday Times were obviously not part of Phalaphala dollars recipients...😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🙆🏾♀️
P
This CR guy's superpower is that he doesnt care about south africa
Infiltrators
Charity begins at home. EUROPE doesn't have loadshedding yet here in SA we have stages. That just sums up how incompetent the president is
Red carpet and all and all we saw was blackness. Disgusting. Did the most powerful men in the world know what was hiding behind that grin of yours.
So he was supposed to come back from Europe and unfreeze you from your darkness
😂😂😂😂 Amehlo ka Barney sewayavuleka kancane or...?
'Your president'.
Eusebius Le rata drama shem…
Why is he not mampara of the week
Bull shit Zuma made a mess for 9years hence we are here
Zuma put us in this darkness
After Phala Phala saga I see a change of reporting from thumamina media. I could be wrong PhalaPhalaGate
There was a time when we were looking foward to Sunday so that we can buy the Sunday Times, not this BULLSHIT!!! Who ever the editor is ...
If he had any backbone, he would have stepped in and sorted the Eskom shenanigans. But he's weak and did his usual ostrich trick. He'll do that here or abroad; makes no difference 🤷🏻♂️He's running scared from the unions.
Isn't he powerful too?
Evil man
Ba mo jikela bjale😁
Judging by the talks between Eskom and Government, I personally believe one of the subjects is the quitting of de Ruyter at Eskom.
Old men and women on this app👀hhayi bandla 😂🙆♂️
Banger Tweet. 🔥🔥
This one should have stuck to business only
Is there nothing positive that you can write about the president 's visit as a state head?
Do we know if government ministers are also subject to Load Shedding or do they have a 'special' Eskom connection or are they off grid with solar?
Lol senimjikele yini
Lol lol tired of defending him?.
Legend 🙌🏾
Living his best life. After Germany, being all important in Botswana. He ran away from PhalaPhalaFarmGate He said, party over country. You forget he is the president of the ANC first.
Bathong
PhalaPhalaFarmGate
Looks like CyrilRamaphosa is becoming a liability for his bosses. Soon, they might push someone else down our throats. DD perhaps…? 👀
😂😂😂😂 ziykhala manje
President Ramaphosa is better than his predecessor who operated at the Saxonworld and addressed the nation in the dark corners of KZN via imbizos
🤣🤣
Ramaphosa's PR team is turning against him.
This is weak journalism. mthombothi is embarking on factionalism. What do you want Cyril Ramaphosa to do. This is stupid haikhona..... Black journalists are lazy to investigate, their easy way out is to play to the gallery. This is cheap politicking and weak journalism.
Senikhonkotha uboss wenu, hheyi nina nizoxoshwa emsebenzini. Inja isidla umniniyo, soke sizwe nanka ekake umbombo 😳
The man isn’t allowed a holiday? Come on.
That's his job
U_Siphoz PhalaPhalaFarmGate MAFIA CyrilRamaphosa is a DISMAL FAILURE and must go with IMMEDIATE EFFECT!!!🤞🏽🔥🔥🔥 RamaphosaMustGo
Ofcourse, create problems, destroy country, cause deaths and go wine and dine
The marketing team is tired of shielding the useless1
😹😹😹😹
Grinning his Cheshire Cat grin. Feeling important. He is nauseating
Seems like his bosses are no longer happy with him 😇 every headline to come will pain thumaminions
😂😂😂
Madlala_TM CR the flip flop - last week BRICS and this week the G7. Who is he spying on ?
There are lots of things to criticise Ramaphosa about, but this certainly isn't one of them. In fact, coming on top of an unrelenting weekly barrage of similar misplaced criticisms, it's fair to ask whether Mthombothi is doing an Ahab against Ramaphosa
The knives are out😂😂😅😅
Are you a reputable newspaper or a gossip column?
You guys ran out of articles for this week 😂😂😂
Really stupid article....it seems even the one's we thought where good journalists become absolutely useless to be more relevant...it's a shame but hey 🤷♀️🤷♀️
Voetsek VoetsekANC VoetsekCyril
Gorilla
While people like you where backing him with lockdowns and Covid clots shots propaganda instead of doing your jobs properly the media is part of the problem why the world and South Africa is stuffed. We all now paying for your and governments greed to take money to push agendas
PhalaPhalaFarmGate CyrilRamaphosa he's plane should be searched for more cash after each G7 & overseas visits.
Whatever Sunday Times is smoking is very dangerous
Stuff you people in South Africa 🇿🇦
He got rid of Stage 1 load-shedding.That’s deserving of some R&R
It seems like the cabal have found their next president...They no longer need Ramaphosa to protect their interests..
Globalist
Is there a new editor for this publication? I shook
Barney has the thinking capacity of a brick.
I'm starting to think I woke up in an alternate universe, most media houses are attacking the ankole businessman
The lesser we speak about his 'British friends'diverting funds to Ukraine while Africa is facing famine,the better.
It's your President, Barney... You have been protecting him all these years, keep doing so... This one is always having a time of his life inside and outside of the country.
They don't have loadshedding in Europe because their governments built there infrastructure to benefit the people. In SA the Leadership looted and enriched themselves. Living in luxury, Mansions, Expensive SUV's and Gucci. Abanandaba ngabantu.
Gallivanting lol
Had Ramaphosa stayed at home, this would be the headline: 'While world leaders are meeting and planning for the well-being of their citizens, your president was sitting idle in his farm counting his Ankole cattle'. Damned if you do, damned if you don't!
He made a deal with Acting PP that he is extremely busy and will only answer questions of PhalaPhalaFarmGate Criminality where he is a kingpin in July 2022. we have here a protected common criminal as president. From CR17BankStatements hiding his crimes to PhalaPhalaFarmGate
That's why Cyril was invented. Gallavanting in EU, pleasing his masters every so often. When he's been a really good .boy, they give him more money than usual to sell South Africa & its people. A white supremacist that rose through the ranks of a supposed 'black' liberation party
Was he there for pleasure?Your hate for the man is messing with your intelligence.
Loool ngabe sebeqala ukumukhafula yini nabo? Ake sithule sibuke...
Why nithanda ukuthi powerful people,powerful to who? they are powerful to weak people.
What did you expect from the president of Ankole society.
Cancellation of that would have made no sense- governments pays billions of salaries to people who are responsible of keeping the lights on…
If he's not selling cattle, he's globe-trotter. It's all just Vibes PhalaPhalaFarmGate
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And taking selfies .
🤡
Madala had nothing to write about🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
You sometimes make sense, but in this one you are bored. The President is working ⚒, G7 meetings aren't planned according to weather or rather Eskom's non-performance, geez!!!
He's a state head, what do want him 2 do hold candles 4r us.... Nine-drama shem
.that criminal must arrested
You don't have anything to report? So he musnt do his duty. That's work trip not holiday Mos. There are people responsible for Eskom right.
It’s because he is the President and I’m not the President. We voted for him remember to have that classy style❤️❤️❤️❤️
Matanyula is a curse.
SikhumbuzoNgiba It's called bilateral engagements. The man has the mandate of engaging with potential investors in order to solve our problems. That de Ruyter guy doesn't need the president to hold his hand in order to do his job. Loadshedding is his baby right now.
We are not suprised he said that the Presidency job is a side hustle, he was on a farming meeting. So should we be worried😂😂😂
CyrilRamaphosa is a worse ever President to rule this country
he is just like zuma a lying corrupt thief infaxt thats the whole ANC.....
Eusebius He cherishes these moments, always looks super excited in the company of the super powerful, like a child in the company of hundreds of toys..
Who would have thought😂😂😂
He has two ministers and two deputy ministers who are all responsible for Eskom and energy provision in the country. He would not have attended the G7 if it was not as important.
Absent leadership :Ankole President
Focus Mthombothi focus, let’s get a conclusion on the Phala Phala money laundering case 1st. I know nothing will happen but at least closure ke.
JackD157 So he can't do his duties,that the electectorate voted for?Loadshedding is 14yrs old,is this a 1st trip by a head of state while we experienced loadshedding?Guys report on the farm gate like the 'Namibian'does, report on your masters and stop being useless,sales gone,poor reports
As usual. Anc does not care when the country is in a crisis
Let's play the ball not the man guys don't blame President for everything happening in this country, he assigned ministers to every positions .
PhalaPhalaFarmGate
Photoshoot was amazing 😂😂😂😂
that thing is not my President
Barney isn't there anything better to write about? DMn our gossiping, horrible, so called journalists have lost the real meaning of journalism. That's why newspapers have lost their credibility bcs they report on every useless thing.
Eusebius
Eusebius Just gonna block now. I’m no supporter of anything anc including CR but that the SA Pres should not attend international leadership meetings is ridiculous.
When he came back he went to charge his phone in Botswana
You may also go there.
The man is really an utter and complete disappointment.
💃
His absence in times of crisis speaks volumes,the fat one is not a true leaders ass,just a slave to the Ruperts & Oppenheimer's.
Stay there vrek there ,dont come back doos
PhalaPhalaFarmGate
Also you meet to blame the useless current Eskom CEO whose paid almost R500k a month,Useless Minister's of Public Enterprises &Of Energy useless Boards current and previous of Eskom useless before then President of this country. 🙄
Applies to every president after the first one
we as a people are sociopath-stupid.
Useless president ever in the history of south Africa he have to go now and he don't even deserve the second term nxa PhalaPhalaGateFarm PhalaPhalaFarmGate
ZweliKINGDlomo PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa no family meeting, no care, nothing. Convinced now he needs to go.
... but to they all do. One of them during the COVID lockdown went abroad to attend a zoom meeting. It's the calibre of the men we elect in this continent. There was a thing in Rwanda around the same time more or less, he slipped that one
Taking selfies
I never rated Cyril from the onset. He is no different to all other corrupt individuals within the ANC. Nobody took note when he was sidelined by Mandela many years ago.
Useless Nxa!!!

You forgot to mention Malema galavanting in Ibiza Well the problem is with those who voted him into power, because during those elections load shedding was still part of their lives. Well still no word about this terrible loafshedding that grin on his face is enough to make me sick. He says and does nothing about it.
