"As a longstanding member of the ANC and its leadership structures, I know and understand our resolutions. I don’t need lectures on that. But on the SARB, I am convinced that we adopted a wrong resolution. What do we want to achieve? Our strategic focus: structural economic reforms," he tweeted.

What do we want to achieve?Our Strategic focus:Structural Economic Reforms.Mboweni said the country must first spell out what it wanted to achieve by nationalising the Bank.

In the ANC's manifesto ahead of the 2019 general elections, President Cyril Ramaphosa said: “The ANC believes that the South African Reserve Bank must pursue a flexible monetary policy regime, aligned with the objectives of the second phase of transition.

This guy is undemining MYANC

The last trough to feed from, then it's one way back!

If the resolutions are his , not collective of ANC, the money they paid to be there is finished branches are to discuss them and write to SG for a speedy conference within 5yrs as those bought voters can see what is going on

Which side is he on?by the way ANC was fighting apartheid with these kind mistakes tito is talking about,fighting for the poor,

This current government is not going to nationalize the SARB if they nationalize they going to print notes and enrich themselves you are going to buy a loaf bread for R 50 i don't trust this mafia's

He is smoking low grade weed from his farm...

Says someone who was given 10 000 share of reserve bank

Yes coz they want to loot every thing this idiot

Julius_S_Malema EFFSouthAfrica mzwandileMasina

Where is the integrity committee or it only acts against factional opponents?

NelsonKhumalo88 Shut up tito_mboweni you're the biggest mistake

Says SARB shareholders

Forgetting to carry the “1” is a mistake. Nationalizing anything under an ANC guavament is InsufficientAchievement

This Tito person think we are fools like him...mxcm!

numbaONEhustla Maybe removing the death penalty was a fundamental mistake. How about allowing women the right to choose? Should there even be an age of consent in sexual matters? Perhaps tito_mboweni would like to lead us in these discussions MYANC EFFSouthAfrica

Hebanna tito_mboweni seriously so you undermine your MYANC policy conference and who elected you as a member of the NEC why flip flop before you're become minister u was pro nationalisation now minister u against nationalisation of SAReserveBank so you must be fire immediately

A single person tito_mboweni declares a decision made by thousands MYANC to be a mistake. Is this because he's greater than ANC or just has superior brains? I'm defeated...

So democracy in your movement works only when you get elected but not when the majority agree on policies ? If this is about principle then you should not have accepted a position that requires you to implement your party’s policies! Move aside mos- simple

ANC supporters! Please name one single thing, one single department, one single project that your ANC has tackled that has NOT turned to shit! Just one, that is now functioning better than what we had before! Angazi! Angazi! Angazi!

I don't think the Minister said the resolution was a mistake, he said 'we adopted a wrong resolution', call it semantics, there is a difference, both in meaning and context! The resolution is not wrong or a mistake in itself but not advisable and necessary as it's cosmetic!

MyAnc your minister of finance defies the party's resolutions on the media.

Tito is a mistake like Jamnandas

Tito is drunk with power. Only six countries in the world have their central banks owned privately.

Remember Mboweni have shares in SARB and his a big dog of WMC

There's no 'mistake' the ANC has never made comrade Tito.

There is always that one house negroh...always acting in the best interest of the white master.

As if he's not ANC

MYANC lucky star minister is now behaving like a free agent

Yhoooo, nayoke I Anc yabooo.

The reason why apartheid was able to fund the building of SOEs, schools, hospitals and roads it was because they owned the SARB Anc negotiated for its independence during codessa and gave it to shareholders mxm

Lomadala must take a pension

Even better , why is he disagreeing with the samething he said in 2018?

ROTHSCHILD OWNED & CONTROLLED BANKS:South African Reserve Bank!!!

Then it will be resolved in June at the NGC when we remove him he thinks he is bigger than the Anc this one

Tito was partisan to the assault on the Rand which was stopped by Kevin Wakeford. He must be watched with a hawk eye, the country and every debt holder has been a socio economic victim of his decision as a result of his actions at Sarb

This Tito Mboweni must be removed from the ANCNEC,he sits there in every meeting but come here and deliberately contradicts the position of the ANC for popularity

How can 5000 deligates make that mistake and you alone is correct. Then conference outcome must be a mistake.

jaydee_loubser For god’s sake ANC whoever’s decision this is because nobody’s responsible for anything in this country, PLEASE for once, listen to TITO. Take his advice! Before we get into trouble we have no chance of getting out of! Listen to the man who knows what he’s talking about!

Mr Lucky Star....

tito_mboweni is clear. Even if he's wrong at least he's clear on what he wants.

When a mistake mistakenly points out another mistake

The biggest mistake was allowing the ANC to govern.

Again more proof of how the ANC lies. They had already taken the resolution I'm 2017 yet if I recall correctly they still said in 2019 that the nationalisation of the bank was not an option

He has a good point, do you trust the current leadership to not fuck it up?

Tito is a loose cannon. Impulsive, arrogant and naive. No respect for MYANC structures. He’s not offering alternative arguments, just pomposity.

These boys act like they bigger then the organization they not for the people anymore we suffering out here getting disrespected in all sectors and that in Africa

Tito does not want to loose his shares that he got for selling the ANC.

Nationalise it! Just as we should have done to our mines 20 years ago. It’s the only way to rid the White Corporate Monopoly Capitalist who dictate policies and structures within the bank. Tito opposes it cos like Pravin he is working to protect these bastards.

Mara this minister must go he starting to irritate and the ANC doing nothing about him

tito_mboweni is a deployee of the African National Congress and he is expected like all other deployees to abide by the resolutions of the 54th conference. If he thought the resolution on SARB was a mistake he could have challenged it at the conference and not on Twitter

He is too week to become a president. He can't run his ideas past his own party, why come tell the public that the ANC resolutions are mistakes? Is he not in the NEC and did he not partake at Nasrec?

tito_mboweni NGC is coming chief... keep spewing woteva.... 'Die Poppe saal dans'

I think Tito hasn’t really grabbed ANC philosophy “THINK TRUTH, TELL LIES”.... he just tells what ANC really believes, And not what ANC decides to say in order to deceive us..... aaaiiii lo Madala, he just exposes the real ANC.....

MYANC must move to change the constitution which will drive a change to the the mandate of the SARB and SARB Act. Nationalising without changing mandate will be pointless, hence Ntate tito_mboweni is perplexed as to the intention/rationale of the MYANC

It's a big mistake, it doesn't serve your masters, after all you are only there to protect their best interests while the rest of us suffer.

Toto is getting old...it was dagga now this haikhona madala....

Anc forming a government is a mistake

But he once tweeted in favor of a National/state Bank

It's hard to be a minister of finance when your friends are breaking everything you need to function and to build..

You don’t say 🤣

Question for Tito...did he ask the same questions when these matters were discussed during conference?

Seninceliswa mama phentike manje we Tito. Ondlebe zkhanya ilanga banikhothosa izinqa zaboke manje ngeke. Seniphikisa konke okuzosiza abantu abansundu

Yes, huge big mistake 😩

The commencement of the fall of rand.

Reserve bank problems cannot be solve using scripts from oppressors. We need to change its ways to suit our agenda.whether we get it right or wrong.we cross that bridge.Nationalise thing period.Private owners will see how they fit in there.

Easiest job in the world to be Reserve Bank Governor. Have meetings, get paid only to say won't change anything despite the fact that we need urgent intervention from him.

This tells you that even Ramaphosa is not in charge

Tito should have argued his points in the conference and failing which he either become a democrat by following the majority decision or recuse himself from any position that will compell him to implement the resolution! Wat he is doing is treason to his movement!!

He is not the ANC, just an ordinary member. The decision still stand, Reserve Bank will be nationalised soon.

His is effort to overshadow not only organization MYANC but its purpose as it stands for revolution. Cde Tito must raise that at ANC NGC or he must prepare discussion document for ANCNGC for review instead of parading himself as market's messiah

Interesting 🧐

Individual's view in opposition of that individual's organizational resolve is ill discipline of high level especially when that individual is deployed to take to logical conclusion such resolve. It's worse if it's done outside of structures of orgarnization

Please we don't need your advice take your advice to Ruperts

TheOtherView3 Yes its a mistake, unless you knowingly want to bring about another Venezuela, Zimbabwe, etc.

It's looks like you want to take land without paying for it open boardes and now nationalise reserve bank couse that is what you want to steel now and maybe JSE

The centre is no longer holding😁

He was not even in Nasrec this one

So you speaking as a minister or on your personal view....

One voice of reason in the ANC.

Agreed! This is a serious arse above face moment for the ANC.

Why is he disagreeing with the policy of the movement.

Thank you for your views Mr Mboweni it is welcoming, it should invite more views from the Financial Sectors and especially our neighbouring countries. What's the status of Ruwanda's Reserve Bank it would be interested to know...food for thought

I think a comparative analysis needs to be done in relation to other emerging or developing African countries to justify the SARB Nationalisation debate/arguement. Let's look at the mandate of SARB and our fellow emerging countries before a resolution should be implemented. My 5c

Hebanna 🙄🙄

Who cares about what he thinks we are going to nationalise everything nothing will be privatise for greed. White capitalism will kill us all it must be stopped

The anc is one big mistake

Knowing the ANC that resolution will not be implemented

Pity tito_mboweni can’t become president
