Delaying tactics..the man has failed dismally..

Hearing this man's name really irritates me,do u still call him our President after he called himself 'the president of the Ankole society'?

Discussing! Meetings ! Discussing! Nonsese

Did they have a wonderful oscars like function at tax payers expense. And solved F All we back on stage 5

And what are the resolutions to solve the problem? Talking is not the solution.. The latter is obvious. Just do what has to be done. Write down the detail off problems and address them one by one in priority order. Hope they get the message.

I'm so excited now I just made profit on my first investment I just invested R5000 in bitcoin mining and made R122 000. profit in 5days Thank you sir for your kindness and support MarkMaynardq

Why has he not met with his master Putin!

He must meet more engineers and technicians…NOT POLITICIANS. Make the plan to tackle the problem public. Give us timelines. Then he must do weekly reports of their progress.

Useless discussions amounting to more blackouts 😭 The president's delicate oratory skills may be laudable yet it degenerating into insults ranging from words like 'Isiphukuphuku (fool) to 'ukuhlanya' madness 🤔 Soon the scoff will turn to physical attacks😔😭

Ramaphosa has failed must just resigned as the president of the country. He got got no ability to lead this country.

His just doing a PR stant He. Will not fix any thing

Cut the effing power to those who don't pay, so that those who do pay can enjoy 24hr electricity. It's not rocket science FFS!!!

Oh shut it

How convincing they have seemed to Ramaphosa. What i want to know is how much is he getting paid to ensure this happens?

I have a solution, but because I don't need a job, wouldn't go around offering. Hala at me, WE DON'T NEED ESKOM GUYS. Aniboni'n'?

Really? What did he come up with? Nothing! He has not got the will to solve the problem.

A little too late this country is finished companies have to spend millions to supply there own electricity but are expected to pay a tariff/fine for doing so!

Useless lot 😉

The whole lot are bloody useless

And all they had to say was yebo eish

Nothing will come out from their discussion.

😂😂😂

So? And?

Only now?

I'm sorry, but I find this... pathetic? Correct me if I am wrong, but this 'meeting' looks more like an attempt to save face instead of actually fixing the problem?

Discuss what about it, they don’t know we have been having a crisis. Why is the meeting newsworthy?

We are being taken for moegoes here, didn't this president head an 'ESKOM war room' some point? I bet you that at this meeting the president was relating how shocked he is of problems ESKOM.

What is to discuss? We need solutions... And I doubt his ministers, premiers and mayors are equipped to provide them, otherwise we would not be in the mess we are in for the past 10 years plus....

They are meeting to acknowledge that there is an energy crisis, as they do with all other crises, I doubt they'll have a workable and impactful solution by the time they are done with the meeting.

News? Seriously? To meet and discuss, hhay no kahleni. We have coal and the generation capacity. It's a one sentence exercise; 'ESKOM, stop loadshedding'. Thank you.

Is Pravin still a minister?

Sounds worse than a corporate company meeting. if it gets worse business going to hurt more just to stay operational. Cost a small fortune to stay on but looks like another fortue for anything higher than stage 6. cant imagine stage 20 would mean small unpaid holiday.

Just to discuss, he banna!

Are these ministers, premiers & mayors engineers who can fix Eskom? Are they economists who can turn this economy around? Those guys are clueless & useless. Meet power stations managers& their service providers, get solutions. This one is lethargic, nxa

He's been meeting with them from 2014 but dololo solution to the energy crisis. What an epic failure of a leader.

Meeting after meeting and meet to meet to discuss the crisis for years but there is no solution! Ramaphosa must stop treating the people with contempt,he must stop treating the citizens like fools,he must go the citizens and the country can't be sacrificed for him to be President

Why only now, this meeting was supposed to happen 5 years ago, you going to meet and still do nothing, some of we watched you doing this (destroying Eskom and now my salary has been cut)

Nonsense he the one behind it y meet

These are not news to be truly speaking

Ntsa emetseng 😥 . He was heading the task team ka 2015 mos. Act busy and have them report it

Why now.. 😊 LOL 😂 😂 😂 Clown 🤡 leadership This is crazy. The whole of last year the country was in the dark. Even years before last there was load shedding. What's so special about the meeting

SABC can report nonsense, pure garbage. There is no mention of the outcomes of the meeting, probably because there's nothing

Mr President you are deployee of a political party. I will appreciate it if you ESKOM matter can be resolved by the NEC since the conference has expressed and resolved on the matter. Implement resolution finish and klaar.

So many meetings but ain't shit happening 😂😂😂😂😂 Wtf going on this mf huh?🙄🙄🙄

😂😂🤣🤣🤣meeting after meeting

Time to get municipalities off the grid

He's for ever doing something about this crisis but no result, not even a negative one

Ministers, Premiers and Mayors can't fix broken power stations. President Ramaphosa should talk to Engineers, Technicians and Technologists. 🇿🇦🇧🇼

Talk won't help do something about it

What happende RamaPolution PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa

As usual all CR and the ANC do is meet with ministers, have a chat, drank tea and do Fokol!! Nothing more than PATHETIC and tribalistic individuals captured by their own needs for greed and power.

I would why they having meetings back to back with no results i mean all those people at meeting have nothing to do with eskom, he should be going to eskom to find out whats the problem and solve it, meeting for what waste of money

President o jele madi a America a le wane a ba sa re bolelele ..A di baje

The SABC should be playing a more active role in communicating the plans to resolve the energy crisis. Meetings are not plans. Communication is key in keeping the nation informed of the actions and progress made in resolving the crisis. Why don't you start a channel to do this?

More talks about how ANC can steal more money… and the point fingers at everyone but themselves. Where is the money donated by Saudi, the UK, etc to go with green energy sources?

We'll see whats gonna happen after meeting.

Discussing what because he is making them fools all is well, it just that he want to be like this so that he can sell eskom to those who gave him money to campaign to be Anc President.Everything is going according to his plan🚮🚮🚮

Still can't understand what's news about that

Why don't this weak president just resign?

Whoop whoop...what can we expect😐😡

Kanti in the meantime the SG, says the conference resolved that it will end...

U mean plan on how they ate going to further the damages🙄

The MINISTERS meet and discuss but there is no action on the crisis. Only action by the MINISTERS ate CORRUPTION

Meeting wrong people, must meet engineers, new CEO, etc

Met? Really met. Only now? Did he get lost? We have had an energy crisis for over a decade. Sounds like he is a bit behind. Come on Cyril the jig is up. Is bullshiting no one. ANC must fall. Eskom must call it quits now. My left ball sack wouldn't vote 4 u.

Bright spark still has no plan

So?

By law he should have stepped down. SA is on autopilot...

When n where

Oh wow, did you not meet with them previously, and did you not cancel a trip previously? Something is wrong with my memory.

Always met meeter metering but no possible outcome safa nge loadshedding while ppl eating money upther😢😢😢😢😭net electricity phela we dnt care abt money net electricity madoda😢😢😢

He and his ministers are the reason for this fck up

It’s not good enough to meet ministers. CyrilRamaphosa needs to DO something about the problem. Action tuu, Mr President.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂they always meet

The best thing for him is to step aside as a criminal finish

The Luthuli House comtsotsis are exposed.

So?

THE ANC IS THE WORT THING THAT EVER HAPPEND TO SOUTH AFRICA

Cyril it`s your corrupt party thats 100% to blame

We need a doer going forward we've been discussing since 2008

'When I become president, loadshedding will be a thing of the past' 🤦

Energy crisis started in 2018, he still meeting people who don't have solutions. Tell him to meet Matshela Koko and Brian Molefe

Howa tshwana🙌

Haven't they discussed enough?

What is this clown can tell people which is better,does he knows that it is not those people he is meeting that are affected,ministers are not affected at all,they have eletricity for free and they heard about loadshedding,and the nation is under siege he talks to his friends

And ... he has had meetings. So what?

ANC JUST NEEDS TO GO . THEY ARE ALL THE HIGHEST PAID PENSIONERS IN THE COUNTRY. WHEN THE REST OF OUR GOVERMENT ARE NOT EVEN 60 YET THEY GET LETTERS REMINDING THEM THE TIME IS NEAR BUT NO NOT THE CORRUPT PENSIONERS. BUT EVEN AFTER EVERYTHING PEOPLE WILL CONTINUE TO VOTE FOR THEM.

We’ve been discussing 😒

Another meeting, another feeding time, another lot of hot air blowing. And there is no plan on how to fix electricity problems

Discuss

Discuss lied

'President Cyril Ramaphosa has met with minister PRAVIN to discuss the country’s worsening energy crisis.' FIXED!!!

“DISCUSS” 🚮

Criminal in a suite

And then.. 0000

What a joke, we are in what series part now, season 4

Action is needed as soon as possible Mr president no more talking

Another talk shop by the CORRUPT ANC CRIMINALS

...meetings...

Yeah --- so what's going to actually happen about it ?

Is there even sense is them meeting ,clearly they dont come up with any solution

All the criminal clowns together, scheming how they can make money out of yhe crises.

All he does is meetings and NO EFFIN SOLUTIONS 🚮

Zimbabwe number 2

Here is a suggestion for Cyril. At the next meeting, there must be no chairs, tables or refreshments. All participants must stand and they can only present if their ideas are actionable and viable. Maybe then it won't be a talk shop with a lot of hot air.

Met with premiers, mayors, and all who can't explain 'induction' in the electrical scheme of things.

Doubt he actually met... 🙃

The only country with the worst energy crisis, but yet has all the resources

Too little too late, Ramaphosa!!

Ramaphosa and his people don't care about this country. The purpose of the meeting is about how to cripple the country. For how long should this country face this blackout. The next thing he will blame Eskom. Enough with the lies from this old people

Same people who have been lacking ideas and insight for 13 years now? Ooh ok!

lira12_joy Cyril must Go

Criminals unite

Discuss energy with Minister of Education. For what, shouldn't he discussing what matters to them, coz they're also failing in their jobs?

I think president Cyril Ramaphosa invited wrong people in his meeting therefore the crisis at ESKOM won't stop, just waste of time. Meeting was useless, at Richards bay what trucks 🚛 are transporting, Mxm

That means fuckall... I can meet with the pope, it doesn't make me a saint. You are destroying our business.

You can even fix the toilet that uou blocked

SouthAfrica RamaphosaMustGo Eskom ANCriminals PhalaPhala Countrywide_Protests BOYCOTT_TAXES Eskom_Tariffs VOTE_OUT_ANC

So what's next cos even now will be looking when is the loadshedding

And what has he done? Nothing nil zero just like he has ever done, for our country all he has done is keeping millions in his bed

Who cares?

Blah blah blah.

CyrilRamaphosa grand gesture that is not so much too little, too late as it is entirely beside the point. He has done absolutely nothing about these continuous rolling blackouts that are jeopardizing jobs and the economy.

Okare aka tshwara ke maphyega everyday for the rest of his life nxa

This article says nothing. What is the outcome of the meeting? What is the plan? We need to work together? Is that it?

A lot of meetings but NO PROGRESS 😡😡😡😡

What was the outcome of there was any.

Ministers, Premiers and Mayors... None of them are electricity experts. CyrilRamaphosa when are you meeting engineers and experts?

😴😴

Okay and?

In Richard's Bay, what Trucks are transporting to the Hambour?

Talk talk talk talk talk talk talk talk - playing the fiddle while Rome burns down.

He probably also met with the ghosts of his imagination.

oh wow 6 weeks later he crawls outta bed and holds a meeting. lekker bro fokken lekker. wake up sleepy head. Try catch someshit before it breaks next time ok. jirre useless. hope the canapés are delicious for your meeting fat arse. why does he look like chocolate Winney the Pooh?

Can you maybe meet with some people with solutions Govt officials have no answers Try broaden your scope a bit. A lot A frigging lot.

ANC loves to talk and have meeting but can't implement anything. Pointless exercise!!!

Hope he has included church ministers because this country certainly needs divine intervention to survive

Discussion: CR: The energy crisis is worsening. MYANC: Yes Discussion over: 🤡🤡🤡🤡

Resign baba,remember the story of Robert Mugabe

So No accountability... No step aside.... Got it😎✌️

Ministers? You need specialists for specialized sectors

You should have started these talks when the powers that be were warned about exactly this, many many years ago. Thank you, Thabo Mbeki, for sending us down this shit hole of a mess. That is one thing the ruling party does very well...

It's always the meetings and talking but no action!! Our government is sickening, yeerrr!!😫😫

What did they discuss?

Another talkshop

okay anddddddddddd...........................

2024

“Worsening”,and CyrilRamaphosa been at it since mid-2022!

😂🤡🤡🤡

We don't need meeting, need electricity.

Thank u NEXT PLEASE!

Tsek

Hmmm he has consulted everyone except the people who are affected by this loadshedding because his premiers,ministers and mayors all have generators, inverters sponsored by taxpayers

15 Years of meaningless meetings!

Here we go again!

Another meeting. Another do fokol. The MYANC is truly outdoing itself.

Time for implementation not talking point

But we're going to Stage 2 soon.

Discuss but do sweet fuckall to fix the problem...do quick short term fixes to buy time til the election next year...

Which premier in Kzn Duma?

Bazokwenzani labo bantu?

The man likes meetings, summits and conferences. Dololo action to resolve problems. Let alone energy crisis we still have pit toilets at school, mud schools etc What happened the early morning walks?

These mayors of KZN can't even plant a blackjack in a pothole in the shitties they (mis)rule...

When is Ramaphosa doing a reshuffle of cabinet

We don't have time to read this nonsense anymore, just tell us the outcomes of the meeting in two sentences.

He must consider cutting down his cabinet retrench those Sassa people and their deputies the money must be invested into Eskom

I😭 wonder what solutions the likes of Mbalula will bring.

He meets the useless people who wont solve the problem.

Amazing how the whole worlds having an energy crisis at the minute dont you think. Its almost like its been planned. 🥴

Was Ted Bloem, adilnchabeleng & other energy experts/engineers part of that meeting if not it was just a waste of time. Mayors are failing the simple task of service delivery then what can they do about electricity they know nothing about. Cyril is a joke Newdawn Loadshedding

Where and when did that meeting take place? He is forever sleeping! This is just a statement made by Vincent Magwenya to block journos as they asking why did he cancel his Davos trip if he still not doing anything about loashedding. Ramaphosa is a useless piece of s*emen.

He’s successfully saving the country from beneficiaries of state capture, without him it could’ve been worse.

Mr PhalaPhalaFarmGate fooling media that he is busy doing something. The man knows more than anyone what is the problem of Eskom. What is busy doing is the PR. Power Have Expiry Date. He will fall like all so called powerful presidents around the world. He thinks we're stupid

And?…🤷🏿‍♂️

Again this political stunt where he magically fix load shedding before the elections.

Discussions what for we need action

To do what

Talk, discuss, appoint a task team Reset!!!

Te laat ou maat you tonedeaf useless and ineffective politician.

It’s must be difficult to pretend to care when you don’t🥴

Meetings meetings what are they solving with this meetings

Aaaaaaaand voetsekanc

And…..

Meetings and more meetings to plan the next meeting; sadly this is how our government works

Ey that man loves meetings where he dictates and comes up with renewable energy.

Did they order enough KFC fot the bullshit talks voetsekanc

Firstly mass deportation od foreigners who no value to this country

Weeh

We are really tired of this man. He's brought nothing but misery in our lives.

Towards what benefit,I think Gwede can be the best to take us out if loadshadding

What ? Is he still alive ? Do we have a president even ? I think they’ve replaced him with a robot with flat batteries.

SABC needs to start getting it right it's not Loadshedding it is Blackouts

That thing is useless

His lies have caught up with him. What were they discussing all along

Then? What will happen

Why doesn't he ask the common people then we can tell him what's to be done for free. Get rid of your ministers and cadres and get professionals in and stop govt interference and cadre tenders

Good move Mr President. We hope this meeting provides solution.

Nothing will EVER come out of his consultations. He must RESIGN as he failed the country and her people!

And what is going to happen with loadsheding

Meeting with people who don't have any knowledge of the problem what joke 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

More talk, and no action. When is he coming out of hiding?

“Meetings” Useless. Do some work for a change. You know, like some actions. To fix things.

Useless meeting because he knows very well what he wants to do with eskom which is to privatise it to his business partners

U can hold as many meetings as u like but it won’t stop load shedding We need action firm n decisive action then u may believe u Currently ur just hot air all talk and tell a lot of lies

Meetings do not solve problems. Concrete plans followed by action, solves problems.

Powerstation managers not mayors🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

And?

I bet they say 'eish' a lot during these meetings. How many chickens will be consumed? - All the things that matter to their voters.... probably.

What's this meeting going to cost the Taxpayer?,,, let's hope it was breakfast and not lunch.. Cheaper to drink juice than booze... Manthashe said 6months..mr president fire your entire damn cabinet

Discuss, discuss, commission, no action….

Probably going to tell us to save electricity again. They will never take responsibility.

What a useless human being

He's meeting with the people who brought us to this point. Ramaphosa is useless.

Useless

CyrilRamaphosa just thrilled that you’re meeting to discuss …then more talk, another bloated task team to investigate, a report in 2 years time, more discussions…. dear g-d pull a finger will ya, do, act, direct, state, mandate ….just do something real. Or is it fun watching

Mxm.. fairytale

I met with by boys last night to discuss ideas about changing the world

And what difference is that going to make

Meeting the same clowns who got us in this mess, what a 💩 show

Meetings at this time are nonsensical, urgent action is needed, this loadshedding has multiple negative impacts that will surely be a serious detriment to our nation.

😭😭😭😭 a liability this one

This useless money launderer is a nuisance

Yet another meeting

We want results. What were the outcomes?

I think he has failed . He doesn't know what to do now

Did he meet at the meeting to talk about the next meeting to meet again so that all the meetings turn into electricity and magically fix Eskom?

What is this fool discussing with ministers? He is fooling them because he created this energy crisis intentionally. He is a puppet President and sellout. Nobody takes him seriously

Any of them stepping down?

A sumptious buffet was enjoyed by one all PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa Problem solved

Ramaphosa must be demoted to a position of secretary for the Minister of Communication & digital technology because wow, He's been discussing everything since He's a president but never delivered a single thing!

This organization is gone already kusele amasalela

Ja whatever

That's all it's going to be...discussions.

That better come with good outcome

Tjo Stop

Why do you wait until you have to go somewhere and cancel your trips, before you can do that,?

Mxm

O

8,,880-*

Discuss it all you fucking want Timmy dip shit! The only thing that would save us from collapse needed to be started 10 years ago! We are all fucked now.

So how do those meetings change loadshedding😳

It's quite clear that ANC has got no idea whatsoever for the energy crisis. May the people of South Africa do the right and do the talking at the voting stations and vote this useless party out. That'll be if we love and nation and ourselves enough.

Nidlile kwanele

Just another waste of time and tax payers money catering for this momentous event!

All these damn meetings and nothing is every being resolved. ANCs corruption and reign of terror has caused all of this. The people of South Africa are SUFFERING!

Was it a scheduled 1 hour meeting but ended in 10 minutes early because everyone was tired? Did they commit to continuing to think about how big the problem is? Did they get bored 5 mins into the 10 min meeting and start counting their offshore money they've stolen?

And how the fuck will this meeting help? Has it taken this long to realize that a meeting is required to discuss the worsing crisis?

Shame, he is just lost. Just lost.

All talk and no play.

“Captain Useless and the Useless Avengers, assemble!”

So what should premiers do about electricity

This is an embarrassment to the black community and good news the white community that blacks can't manage anything properly.. Viva DA viva.

Mxim

And then what Rosalea?

Is therr anything to plan.. There is need of a strategy of implementation

Wow, what a waste of time.

All this years when they met what were they not discussing which they gonna discuss today. What does Ramanose know about power generation

What was the outcome of the meeting? It will have been a very interesting to know or be reporting on that angel than sharing his diary.🤔✌️🕊️

🤦🏿

The problem is at Eskom!!!

Ok

And Cyril continues to talk, with nothing happening but rolling blackouts. Useless bunch of geriatrics, retire and leave already ANC!

You’d swear that he was inaugurated last month

ANC corrupt incompetents meeting to discuss ANC corruption and incompetence! One honestly can't make this shit up!!

He is the one who course this not us he himself should solve this not other people

But those minister and mayors they not working at eskom

They must fustek all combined

They have failed already, now they need to discuss when are they stepping down we have had a belly full of them

He knows exactly what's the problem but plays hide n seek about it 🤷‍♂️

Stop meeting talking bla bla bla ACT NOW !!!!

Tsotsi this one, he heard about the world shutdown next week 😳 🤣

What have they been discussing before this meeting?

The best you can do is to take yourself and your entire cabinet, and admit you should never have been within a 100miles of government for the last 30y Handover to anyone else who gives a stuff for this country. Because nee sies man.

And.......Dololo!!!

Typical he should be meeting with engineers,scientists and business men ,men who can solve the problem not politicians.

More meetings? Wena this guy must enjoy his tea and biscuits

And they planned another kak plan to do nothing about this issue. Ramaphosa is a useful to this country as a fridge to Antarctica.

Nothing good can come when a banded of crooks meet

& nothing is going to change 🙄😏🤷‍♂️

These useless beings are of no use to our country, they are just parrisites, they will steal everything in this country, until nothings left.

The failure to do the f-ing obvious is exasperating. In other countries, what they do at least makes basic sense. Here, every decision is delayed to find an angle for patronage

How many meetings,conferences and debates will be held to come up with a solution ay suka mani.

Rubbish! Ramaphosa knows the problems caused by his greed.

Let me predict that nothing useful came of it mphophalatse1 wat was said there that u heard? Unless u wer having that white gogo in your ear piece

You can't keep recycling same ministers who keep on failing at every department

What could Oscar possibly advise on regarding energy crisis.

He first need to meet himself as a failure

Lol

Mxxm

tzwide1 maybe I missed something, how is meeting with all these people going to stop breakdowns. It's been 7 days, he doesn't even have the decency to address the Nation.

Not one of those anc cadres are capable of even understanding how big this problem is, let alone offer anything towards fixing it! Other than saying “guys, let’s own this, get the most qualified independent advise and help and get SA back on track! Asap!” If only had decency to!!

Still discussing and no action😡

Bese 🤷🏾‍♀️

Can a kleva person advise me, how that is going to assist in stopping load shedding?

He met just to bribe them to accept IPPS

lira12_joy Discussing nonsense because he is covering that he sold SOE's to White Monopoly Capitalist to be a president so they paid him, he has to deliver but he is not doing it money os stashed in everywhere in his houses🚮🚮🚮🚮🚮

Ah, the illusion of productiveness. Hope they had a lovely discussion... 'blah blah blah' 😑 All anyone can do these days is talk... not many people actually doing something.

🤣🤣😂 yielding any results?typical of u Mr. Presidente.cut ur overseas trip for the umpteenth time to meet mayor's, mec's and premiers and dololo results

We see you

So he doing what he's been doing since 2014

He met people who are not affected by load shedding . To do what to say what to them. We are the ones who needs answers.

So the President cut his Davos trip to hold meetings 😂 I thought sparks were going to fly excuse the pun for ESKOM.

KudumuPotiyane la!!! Anyway soyicela ivuthiwe. 🚮

Ministers, premiers and mayors?, why does he meet with fools?, these people will not have a clue what to do, he need to meet with energy expert, not politicians and mamparra goverment officials

Too many meetings about meetings

It is time to remove this president and his corrupt party from leading this land. We are tired of his discussions and words. If any vote for these corrupt lot, your are complicate in the destruction of SA. We are no longer prepared to be a world experiment.

Blah, blah, blah

Stop wafflin' 'bout it, do somethin'!

and he was shocked about the situation.

A supervisor has met his staff, and that is newsworthy. 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆

They sure are having a LOT of meetings, yet things seem to only get worse. Can we get some feedback on even ONE of the meetings? Action plan .... anything?

🍌🇿🇦🎪 He must start by exporting electricity while we suffer SpokespersonRSA he must disconnect all illegal connections from illegal immigrants in squata camps, he must disconnect big business who owe Eskom_SA

Arghhhhhh!!!!

MInutes of meeting: Ramaphosa: 'I'm shocked.' Mantashe: 'Not my job.' Other Ministers: 'Apartheids fault.' Mayors owing money toEskom: 'Cheques are in the post.' Fair summary?

Chat to your buddy GwedeMantashe1 to stop preventing sustainable, cheap solutions.

He discuss nothing until he leaves office

10yrs later and we have reach the discussing stage.

Literally talking the country to death

Let me guess he is shocked😆

PresidencyZA humble yourself and request elonmusk or China to come help us. Your plans are failing

Nxa!

CyrilRamaphosa AND?

I'm wondering how do you guys run your families 🤔 . If you manage them like the way you run this country, then your lives nd the country is a mess

Meeting after meeting, cake and tea. Nothing happens

Meeting cabinet ministers and premiers and come out without a solution is utter balderdash. Tell us about the solution NOT meeting and dining with his comrades. But we all know his mission is to kill ESKOM.

Too many committees and meetings and no decisions except wishy washy announcements and the party is so vrot anything they say is questioned 😏

Don’t tell us about meetings, rather he gives us a solution

Useless he still hides from us.. This shithole... 🤮 VoetsekANC VoetsekCyril

Lpp.. Mm

What’s the point of discussions Why is his govt so lackadaisically slow on execution of solutions. Bullshitting people with meetings is beyond nauseating.

Llllll

Hello, if you know that you have been scammed out of your money in any investment company, inbox Mr Gomez about the amount you have Lost and all the details about the investment company to help you recover your funds WhatsApp +1 (475) 268 6085

The President must meet with former Eskom engineers who worked at the company before it was hijacked by the thieving gang. We are in a state of “emergency” so it causes no harm for the President to also call for help from our traditional allies to dispatch engineers for rescue.

Lip service

Getting more ideas to Bee cader it and fuckt it all.Ashole with his kripvreters

We are so tired of hearing updates on the fact that this man is having meetings! Sifelani!?

Why don't they take electricity that they supplying Botswana, Zimbabwe,Moz,Swaziland and Lesotho since they don't have loadshedding while the rightful owners are getting affected . The think of their pocket before they think of people that voted for them.

F--k, none of the people he is meeting with appear to be engineers or techies. Seems like a case of the blind leading the blind.

He should resign

Wrong people. They, by their inaction on illegal connections, failure to collect and pay Eskom, are the worst people to be engaging. Go and find the wisest energy experts and appoint them. Guess that will never happen because you clowns can't bare the thought of being shown

Rampoker all you do is talk Zuma did the same thing talk and talk and lie to the people of south africa its time to go over in action

Talk talk talk and more talking. When can we see some action 🤬🤬🤬🤬

One meeting after another but no actual solution.

'Another round of consultations will then follow with business, labour and inter-faith groups' we going to pray ourselves out of loadshedding now 🤔 mxm Ramaphosa ga itse nthwe a iyetsang 🤦🏽‍♀️ 🚮 🚮 🚮

So what….all talk no action from him for a decade on Eskom…

If anyone can expect fruitful outcomes from those discussions .........is a fool of note

To discuss further bribes?

CyrilRamaphosa you need to be decisive about Eskom.

Useless meeting. The man must just save South Africa by resigning or else....

Im going to have a meeting with my gardener,dentist, plumber and upholsterer to discuss my upcoming wedding, their expert advice on this matter...etc.

What can Ministers, Premiers and mayors do? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Stage 10 loading because he's useless

None of these people have the knowledge or capacity to solve this. It’s like rabbits meeting to discuss inflation.

Zwelinzima Vavi reacts to South Africa's worsening electricity crisis

Joke,

They planning of how to continue worsening the situation these ones

And we hope that you deliver to the people of South Africa!

Agriculture,Mining and All Ports of Entry/Exit(Harbor,Airports,Border gates)should all be allowed to generate their own Energy to atleast Gigawatts levels to ensure that they have back up and after those are sorted all institutions of Education and Big factories should be phase 2

A USELESS ONGOING DEBATE MXM

NO PROGRESS WILL BE MADE HERE... JUST A BUNCH OF CORRUPT PENSIONERS

My reading of this situation is that, a grid failure is imminent. The ministers, premiers & mayors are non essentials to the technical requirements of fixing the crisis and since Cyril is a collective responsibility type of character, he is looking to share responsibility.

This man should save his face and resign like he was supposed to, we need refresh elections

There is nothing more to discuss; CyrilRamaphosa you know what and who are contributing to the energy crisis and you are sitting in the midst of them. When will stop to defend ANCorruption and start to hear the call of the people to put the grid into private hands?

Weeee kunini behlangana kodwa dololo umehluko🙄🙄🙄

So out of those premiers he met with Stan and Oscar....useless bunch have you seen their provinces I'm not exempting KZN,GP,FS and the others but o Stan yena his a mess no bra Oskido aaaay....

The worsening of energy in south Africa is pure sabotage of ramaposa.

They always do, results always the same. NONE

So you met and then what............? You set a date for the meeting to discuss this meeting?

What’s there to discuss?😂😂 everyone in SA knows that there’s this thing.. no one is saying “we are stopping it”.People like Godongwna speak of 12 to 18 months😂😂😂siyadakelwa😫

Not ernegy only=townships sides became dumping side for street vendors without shame

🤣🤣🤣🤣 And.....

Meetings, conferences, reports, are all part of confusing SAns pretending to be concerned about energy crisis that is self made. The aim to destroy Eskom & replace it with EU, UK & US green energy cartels. Re colonization in progress.

A meeting led by a president without a plan yields nothing!

When is this coward going to change his cabinet?

Let Matshela Koko and Brian Molefe also be invited to these consultative meetings. Koko, especially, has been tweeting daily about how they had successfully stopped loadshedding during their tenure at Eskom. This would be opportunity for him to stop shouting from the wilderness.

Sounds like he is meeting with the wrong people..

The crisis he allowed and was complicit in creating? This man isn’t very bright🤔 Now it suddenly becomes our collective responsibility but they don’t listen when the people speak. He should use his billions and fix his own mess

Lots of discussion - we all do that over dinner in the dark - so what bright ideas did the overpaid genius come up with - we need more electricity - fuck - we all know that - how - get rid of the ANC is a good start

This might be a lie.

All talk and no action

Yes his job is to meet. That's not news. What was the outcome?

He must also touch on Arthur mafokates lotto money 😂

Demon Cyryl Ramaphosa who is a spineless failure and a thief from Chiawelo will never come clean about Phala Phala. SABC is patronising.

Any Solution?

Vote ANC. Vote for total country collapse.

Keep working my President,we must however be honest with ourselves that majority actions from 2008 to date have not been solely about resolving the power challenge. Please guard against misdirection. Identify maximum 2 solutions and work to achieve those.

For how long is he gonna keep meeting thise people mara? All we need is results mr preaident

When President rsmaphosa start to speak State capture commission 5 years now of that please rest now

Let's not forget that these guys are probably multi-millionaires and know the future of their grand grand grand is secured irrespective. Doubt they care

Another useless set of meetings and a PR exercise.

Meet and do what? Solution is at megawatt park not anywhere else

He met them many times

Has he addressed the nation since his return from Davos?

And

Mr Talkshow

the same guy who stands to benefit from the collapse of Eskom 🚮🚮🚮 neMedia iUseless shame🚾- who isn't aware that power cuts are an inside job, with the aim to usher in IPPs.. I'm on a mission of getting an asylum eRwanda- RSA going back to the old apartheid times😒🙁

A meeting that was uninterrupted by any loadshedding thanks to taxpayers paying for the generator and the fuel! 😡😡😡

You just listed the group of the most useless people that got us into this mess 🤡

He’s meeting with people who are also failing to run the shows in their different occupations. He should be linking up with engineers and electrical infrastructure experts…not his subordinates.

Meeting upon meeting .. for the last 15 years, yet we are still here 🙄

Syazi uzophelela khona lapho kwi discussion

Well done President, it shows good leadership skill by involving everyone in trying to solve this problem because it affects all of us

All of them magogos 🤡🤡🤡

Was winde part of the Meeting

Kanti they still discussing

He meeting with the wrong people he must meet with engeneers,even the once from outside the country if we have to.

Nero fiddles while Rome burns. What a pathetic loser CyrilRamaphosa is, he makes me physically ill every time I see an image of him. GFY Cyril Loadshedding

And then....

He's forever consulting.

He is destroying the ANC so nicely Cyril… Wow! Lol

You are responsible for South Africa's energy crisis first, not all the other countries you are supplying

We can teach the world a lesson when it comes to 'discussion'....

Brilliant. More meetings. We are saved

Do they ever share the outcomes of those meeting?

It won't change anything. We're sliding down whether the county likes it or not. There's no saving this country while the ANC is at the helm.

Theres nothing they will talk about on their real agenda, they will plan on how to loot more nd leave us more hungry, thugs

As a country we should also meet to discuss our worsening leadership crisis. We are on autopilot for 4yrs straight. Time to rid ourselves of the sleeping buffalo

You are meeting with them to hear their views and do what Silili? We dont want any stages of loadshedding we want electricity qha

Politicians and not energy experts 🙄 Does this Ramaphosa know what he's doing 🤔

Lol! Propaganda and electioneering

Why can't he just resign?

What do These meeting's help ? They just have incurring no substance . Has anything changed. Just going worse.

Ffs stop talking, arrest the coal, diesel, maintenance, parts mafia, hire skilled personnel, fire dead weight staff. If Mantashe gets his corrupt Turkish ship deal back to boil our seas there will be hell to pay. How much was the catering bill, were you all in the latest fashion?

Considering the ANC takes everything it can lay its hands on, why can't they take a decision.

Ramaphosa: 'Ladies & Gentlemen, this is a difficult situation.' Audience agrees. Ramaphosa:' I thank you. Good night.'

How will that bring practical solution

Stop supplying other countries if we have such a problem. Supply SA first

waste of time.

Weeh...nothing will come out of that meeting when not a single attendees can even fix an electric motor,how then can even be expected to fix power stations.

More talk!

Pravin Gordhan is the minister in-charge of Eskom. Pravin Gordhan failed to Solve SAA, Denel and now Eskom!

Welele inganekwane. 🤦

A meeting is not news! The decisions taken at the meeting could be regarded as news. Please stop trying to placate the nation by telling us he had a meeting. What was discussed and what was decided and what actions have been taken?

That’s all he does meet with ministers but dololo solutions 🚮

Thats not something new , He will meet them until the elections come with loadshedding

Welele 😂😂

CyrilRamaphosa besides Eskom_SA, SA is a collapsing mafia state under the corrupt & incompetent MYANC DrGwenR GwedeMantashe1 MbalulaFikile RonaldLamola You hv bn talking abt energy crisis for 15 yrs. You & your corrupt ANC simply cant govern, let alone ethically.

And …..?!

He must step down

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 so what

Meetings are useless. We need action ASAP! Every meeting you drink coffee or bottled water, spending more money. Get off of your behinds and do something.

A few year too late my guy.

CyrilRamaphosa discussing the problem continously is not going to fix Eskom. Bring back the professionals that you and your cronies chased out if the country. You were given a proper handover, an Eskom that worked. Look at it now, shame on you!!!

And then? They met, they ate, they told jokes and lies and they left!

Weleleee..

And what came out of it?

To discuss his resignation is all we Wana hear

Task force loading. . .

This one is forever discussing 🖕

They should be implementing not discussing 🤷🏿‍♂️,we in deep kak🤬🚮

Wonder what was actually said in this meeting..

I’ve seen Brian &Koko make it work , why not consult with them.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Another meeting? Does it help?

To prepare them for the totals collapse of the grid 👀

Will that solve energy crisis?

Meeting the wrong people. Speak to the mafia running eskom

🥱

Mxm

CyrilRamaphosa is really attempting to sabotage the Energy system of the country so we can appease his White Monopoly Capital friends. The clearest thing about this guy’s Presidency is that Billionaire or even Millionaire should never ever ever get close to power!!!

It's obvious that Ramaphosa and his comrades are in a major power struggle for possession that will allow them access to the taxpayers money, that managing South Africa's problems are not addressed.

Met them where, what was discussed, we have no leader here

Hope you not going to leave the country and meetings because you going to resolve the energy crisis!!!! Once again!!!!

For hw many years now?

Still discussing even now ? Agona bo serous mo

And then... Really now what will ministers, premiers and mayors will do to stop loadshading. He should gather the best engineers in a round table and trash this thing out... What will Randell or Rendell Williams whatever will do mmmmmh 🙄😡

Do us a favour and resign or arrnage a committee to arrange your resignation

They are going to talk about how best can they enrich themselves as usual' how many meetings from 1994 by ANC but with dololo implementation, South Africans don't learn'

throw all those thugs in jail. they are clueless jailbirds.

Engineers must be ones giving him advice not his cabinet 🙄🙄🙄

And then 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂

Hopefully the decision that they took will be helpful, but we as the citizens should also play our part. We can't normalize seeing people stealing copper cables and turn a blind eye to it. We also can't turn a blind eye on illegal connection the least we could do is to report.
