It comes amid Eskom’s continuous implementation of rolling blackouts, with the country currently enduring Stages 2 to 4 power cuts. “The electricity crisis continues to undermine economic growth as well as investment. Blackouts damage businesses, continue to disrupt the livelihoods of our people and various households, compromises the position of social services and affect the safety and well-being of our people, especially women and young girls.”He has, however, warned that interventions that have been proposed will take some time.

Surprise surprise, and how many people have lost their job because of your incompetence

Nobody can hold a candle to him...

Brains of a hard-boiled egg

Impressive 😴😪😐

No! Really!? Sharp as a tack, that one...

He really said that. When did he wake up and realize this? It’s been going on since 2008. This president just repeats what we as citizens have been saying for years. He needs to act not repeat the obvious. 👎🏿

He actually gets paid to make these statements

You think

Does he only realize it now 🙊🙊?

No shit Sherlock

Same old song....

Profound

All that and brains too!!

Well DUH!!

Dem.. that is clever.. who would have thought ......

What a revelation.🙄

Well I never🙄

No shit

What a profound statement. Thanks to you, Cyril, and your And Not Capable party, the country is in the shambles it is in.

I will form a commission of enquiry to assess the impact of load shedding on the people - money wasting

😂

He is the cause of loadshedding we are no stupid

Wow......I did not know that 🤣

Really? 🙄

Tell us something we don’t know 🤔

Good god he is a genius! He figured out the power problem is destroying the economy! Now just to figure out the link between loadshitting and the ANC ...

Which he and his ministers don’t feel the pinch of load shedding. Business is spending THOUSANDS on keeping their businesses going so they can earn money to pay taxes.

This chap is brilliant make him president

Serious? First time we hear of this as South Africans. We are schocked!

A grade one could have told you that

No Shit...

Sjoe Sherlock

He's just stating the problem statement, wow!!! a whole president!!!

Jeez thanks for stating the obvious CyrilRamaphosa 🙄🙄🙄

No shit Sherlock

Duh.. No shit

Hawu ngikhani akubona manje loko. It also have negative impact on food prices.

Who is he telling kahle kahle

Less analysis, and more action.

OH FFS!!! Not the same speech again!!!!

No shit Sherlock

That is a known fact worth of no recapitulation. What we want to know is when and how is he going to end it promptly? I personally detest the politically prestigialized word 'repurposed' in the manner he used it.

Whether blackouts roll or not, impact will 4ever be devastating 🤒

No shit Sherlock

I’m starting to think Cyril doesn’t even live here or if he does, he doesn’t go outside into the real world that often.

That is a known fact worth of no recapitulation. What we want to know is when and how is he going to end it promptly?

Oh really? Which would have thought it when eskom.was looted and crippled under your watch

Wow ... !!! Never would have guessed that one 🤔👊

Did he really say that 😳?

It's been 4 years but he's still singing the same song, ramaphosa is Dom, yerrrr.

No shit Sherlock

No shit, smarty pants, is he stuck in 2000?

Brilliant insight!

Seriously. What gave it away and why did it take him and MYANC so long to figure it out?

We know that already

No shit sherlock

He likes stating obvious things and pretend to be concerned 😟

Regtig, kom klaasvakie dit nou eers agter

No shit Sherlock 😳🤡

What else is new

My gosh has he just woken up

How does he come up with these pearls of wisdom....? Oh wait, we knew that 5 to 10 years ago already.... Is he just slow...?

🤡🤡🤡

Cyril can't be shocked-there is no electricity

Well folks we have a very wise president. Did you hear what he said. Amazing words.

Wow I am left speechless

Telling us what we know already, genius

No, shit! Has it taken him a decade and a half to get to this realisation?

We know, TF

Telling us things we know.Come up with a solution Chief.

Seems as if he has been in the dark in so much that he didn't notice that it's actually the problem that has been there since occupying the Office...

I agree. There's only a small percentage paying for the electricty, still too many sabotages by personnel and stealing.

99% of the population of SA knows that, the 1%, being, the government have only realised that now 🙄

Change 'rolling blackouts ' to 'ANC' and you have the correct headline!

I cannot fathom the immensity of the president's grasp of the obvious.

Yet he doesn’t do fokol about it

Gee wizz are you shocked PresidencyZA

No Cyril , not the blackouts it’s your useless government and the MYANC

We know that already wena!

So what are you doing about it?

You don't say...

Does he want a Doctorate for that analysis?

Astonishing, groundbreaking and riveting news! How can he be so clever?

But Cheryl, you are telling us something we, or most of us already know.. question is, WTF are you going to do about it without taking more of my hard earned money?

Can’t they program the Android with any other statements other than him stating the obvious ALL THE TIME!!!!

...and there I was thinking he is a politician, just to realise he is a comedian!

well spotted Cyril!!

Really? We didn't notice...what an amazing eye opener MR PRESIDENT!!!

Tell us something we don't know 🤭

And then so what?

Thanks for stating the obvious. What a revelation.

Profound observation, glad to know our Prez is such a thinker. (Hint: 'You're supposed to be solving the crisis, dude.')

But when loadshedding going to stop, and which solutions going on to avoid it because it makes the country poor

We know!What else?

He figured that all by himself?!?! Amazing!!

🙄 everyone knows that

No shit 🤣

Uncle cyril we ve heard it before ! 🙄

That this man is not embarrassed about stating the obvious!

And new Mayor of JHB support loadshedding disgrace and clearly a ANC Puppet Our_DA jsteenhuisen reason why we have no trust in DA Coalition disgrace helenzille

SA already given up on CR. But why does no-one blame the SABC for continuing to report this nonsense as if it is news & SA is stupid. They should help hold politicians to account in their interviews with straight questions, not just hide behind “we only report the news”.

He's a genius! No one else could think that!! 😂😂😂

His IPPs and in-laws are bleeding Eskom dry in the meantime!

Tell us something we don't know!!!😡🇿🇦

No sh1t Sherlock

Ehat a schocking revelation! 🫢

Nooo that can't be true! Really who knew?

When did he find this out?

No sh!t.

Our very own ROCKET SCIENTIST

Actually he wanted to say, he’s go no plan fixing it.

when did he notice this, and was he shocked by it?

Did he just figure that out?

We know

You have a firm grasp of the obvious

He just realized that now, this thing been ruining since day one 🤦🏾‍♂️

Fuck me sideways!!!! CR17 Shocked again☺️

And yet he’s doing nothing to change that🙃

You a “bright” one….VoetsekANC

Jerr, this guy is slooooow🤦🏿‍♀️🤡

Are they😱😱

Eureka 💡

We know that, what's his plans, is he continuing to advocate for IPPs or fix Eskom? 🤷🏽‍♂️

So what are you going to do for the economy not to fall 😭

You think? So clever. No wonder you are the President!

His only realizing it now, msunu
