Must we believe anything that comes from that government which is known as the biggest threat to South Africa and being a host to the biggest criminal organization.

Start with illegal immigration Mr President. That's the main root of all issues mentioned above

Voestek

Another Vow & Promise ? I've heard this before !

Like a broken record spewing the same shit out time after time😂😂 no one believes them anymore.

They've made this promise since 1994 what a joke

again … the government lies. VoetsekANC

Please!!

💩💩💩💩💩

But these are not new promises though. Ai shem.

For most South Africans it's just a song however The Zimbabweans Government and it's citizens will be happy with this announcement

PalesaAsantewa If this is the best good news to emerge from a Special Cabinet meeting and Cabinet Lekgotla then both events were an utter waste of our tax revenues.

Sort out the borders and call me back.

Lies, Lies and more Lies. MYANC does alot of lip service and delivers nothing. Good example; those accused of corupption and criminal acts are still walking the streets and serving in the ANC that after they promised to take action. You see, all Lies from the ANC!

I just want to ask what is it that they are doing to create employment Because the only way to do that is to industrialise the country. Without industries there won't be job opportunities.

And with everything going on y'all actually see them winning 😒😒 yhu

This is becoming a song CyrilRamaphosa when is bored got nothing to do, he opens his files of lies since 2017 is been repeating same thing, he needs to stop we have heard all before, jobs, immigration crisis, housing backlog, lifestyle audit for parliament, bubbling President

Useless ANC government! 😩

GovernmentZA talk shop it end there no concrete steps taken those ones.

With what? 6 /1 year internships yall don't take us seriously. We don't have time for your empty promises & Pledges we want what we want, and that is Localization and prioritizing South Africans

This song again

Mxm

And they must stop this thing of putting age restrictions from 23yrs to 35yrs on job applications, bursaries and internships because when they wants us to vote there are no age restrictions 😤😤

Tsek

Really is this journalism

Probably this vows not any other

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Here they vow again - vowing since 1994.

😅😅😅😅😅🤌

We, the youth of South Africa appreciate what's being done by those in leadership, to counteract the inequality we've experienced. Definitely, this looks like a step in the right direction.

This lie has in the ANC manifesto since 1994 and nothing happened. Maaka

Aish! these people with lies yoh!

So far the best thing they have done is to increase the unemployment. I'm not sure how they will reverse

They don't have any plans unless they agree to expropriation of Land without compensation

Lies of rranko

ANC like a broken record for the past 27 years

Need i say this again? We need to build a plastic, rail, food production firm, cellphone production company, etc. Until then, please just continue with the good work that you are doing

What about crime?Every single day breadwinners are being shot and killed in crime leaving families with Widows,orphans, widowers etc!Criminals are roaming free after leaving trails of destruction!This corrupt useless government is doing NOTHING about crime!!!

To even say that 28 years to late nothing but a desperate Dan clutching at staws step back you've had your chance and failed dismally, time to give another party a chance to clean your mess

Ironic since you caused all of this. Trillions of dollars in debt and billions unaccounted for. You don't act like people interested in the future of your people. No one believes you anymore. Just a bunch of liars trying to hold onto power

mxm.....

After 28 Years! 28 Years ruling and still vowing.

I doubt this government knows the meaning of vow because it has been vowing since 1994 ..

Iculo lemihla

We need the how part of it?

The government always vowing a lot of things.

I don't think this is feasible, especially that Rama, his excellence, don't see the real problem but thinks economic growth is halted by unvaxxed, whilst it's halted by corruption in his office and he's implecated himself. They mustn't shift the blame to innocent citizens.

mxm

Government must first Get rid of JAMNANDAS and Mbalula what are they doing except destroying what's left of our APARTHEID SOE'S 😳😳😳😳

By increasing Electricity tarrif 😳😳😳😳

ANC gatekeepers they always vowed but no actions from Nelson Mandela To Cyril Ramaphosa suka sikhokhelwa zintothoviyane

I won't be sharing this good news on how am getting paid from Brandonkaren11 platform if I didn't see others testifying I was doubting but now that am experiencing how great her platform work.I also recommend you to Brandonkaren11 bitcoin mining for safe and secured investment

Only thing CyrilRamaphosa and PresidencyZA can ramp up is more corruption

Tell government we got a beat for those lyrics

Voetsek!!!!

Government is blinding us because SONA is around the corner 🚮

Let them keep their vow

Cyril Ramaphosa is useless

Nothing new here. Just empty promises as always. Ramaphosa has failed completely to create jobs and for as long as he is ignorant about the root cause of it all, he must stop wasting our time.

Mxm, CR is out of breath now

This is not a new promise, we heard this since ANC took over governance

Mxm

Blah blah blah 😑

Bullshit, they have stolen trillions that could have alleviated poverty and created employment

Commenting in this one would be foolish.
