Parliament’s International Relations and Co-operations Committee Chairperson Supra Mahumapelo says President Cyril Ramaphosa should have taken a firmer stance in his response to the United States (US) terror alert recently.

Mahumapelo says there should have been immediate communications between the two countries first, before the US announcement about an alleged planned terror attack.“A week ago we saw an announcement by the US Intelligence without following the South African protocol in dealing with such complex matters of security, pronouncing that there is going to be some serious security situation in Sandton. We have seen the response by the President’s office.

Democratic Alliance Member of the International Relations and Co-operations Committee Darren Bergman raised concern about how South Africa is caught in the middle of a cold war between the US and Russia. “South Africa has not really been silent. We’re neutral, we’ve put forward our position, but South Africa is very much engaged. All the leaders in terms of pushing and saying especially in terms of the UN reform and also the fact that a solution has to be found to end the war and pointing out that nobody, especially as small as South Africa, to stop the war, but the big powers have got the power to stop the war.

The unbelievable happened in my life today and words can’t express my joy. Thank you so much for your help I’ll forever be indebted to you Deirdremerson I received R257 000.

I'm convinced that our president knows that our forces are not mentally not physically fit to be alert against any attack, referring to the July riot's our forces still haven't got the ability to name the organizers in the anc structures.

He's slow than a Chameleon he's very weak in mind🤯🤯
