SA has the highest number of infections
51 cases actually
Another commission of inquiry loading...............................
To what discuss eng? Agha yaze yasiyala I Nasrec 😭😭
CyrilRamaphosa Mr president just be a human being at once close our borders, shut down gatherings temporary close schools until the matter is resolved or as soon the vaccine is found, act as our president 😢😢
Newzeland just had 6 confirmed cases but their prime minister have authorized travel ban to the spread under control on the other hand South Africa with 51 cases the President is still consulting
Oh wow finally !!
Not so under control now hey Cyril? Wheres your health minister...should be sacked 🤔
There's one way Shut down the country! Ramaphosa is fighting for the economy that is dead already. The number of people who are getting infected and the necessary treatment needed for them is going to exhaust all the income made from these widely opened SA gates
Marah South Africa,hi guys close borders,no discuss ... discuss what? discuss people the Wash hands,that is totally of out of order..Mr President..
Take hints
Discuss to eat the money!
As a media house do you know the where abouts of all the 38 white people who are actually infected. Oh noooo you are busy guarding the negative 114 blacks from China. SA has dumbest media honestly.
Kerotse_K Intensify? You should have intensified from the on set.
The is no other way akavale yonkindlela ephumayo nengenayo okwes'khashana
Lame duck president 😭
You don't need cabinet meeting when you are the president and can make decisions by your dam self just use that useless mind of yours
Lol other presidents are showing leadership and courage closing boarders and flights from certain countries while ramaphosa is calling for meetings but they will still vote anc no matter how useless they are you will die so investors can make money
COVID_19_QUARANTINE_equality Urgent legislation for mandatory state quarantine for all positive Corona virus cases
Set up temporary quarantined test sights all over the country ASAP and do the least expensive swab test first? covid19SA CoronaVirusSA
Mps don't understand why they are mps how will they understand anything complex
Can’t he president without consulting 😏
Uyahlanyani lo mfana ongu silili engathi sekukubi sekunje yena ubesa khamisile elibele ukuthi i can't panic
There’s nothing special only to tell us not to panic
The looters cartel discovered that hotels can be used as quarantine sites. The gathering is to see how this will be exploited. Looters attack.
A whatsup group is faster and more efficient. Stop dramatising every move CyrilRamaphosa we need speed now now as advised by W.H.O, hurry up!!!
Close boaders
If it comes that there be any deaths in this CoronaVirusSA COVID19 in SA I will blame the PresidencyZA and the DrZweliMkhize they will be responsible for those deaths, I hv never seen such careless, ignorant people in mi life, never😓😣😣
I wish in that cabinet there has been one person who have been in contact with an infected person unaware & spread it through the entire cabinet maybe you'll all take this use serious instead of deliberately putting innocent people at risk out here to feed your greed.
Firstly test more! There is no way that this disease outbreak in South Africa is the fault of white minority travelers. This narrative breeds racism and class and civil warfare and is very dangerous... we need to show South Africa the truth. The virus is in community transfer
Can you please bring experts, Doctors and specialists. Cabinet? What decision is gonna come out of that. INVOLVE SPECIALISTS, YOU NEED TO BE ADVISED
SAlockdown
Somebody tell that Ramaphosa to learn from Namibia, Ruwanda and US. He has been advised by competent leaders to impose travel ban already and he has done nothing as usual. The spread of this virus is imported and CR17 is failing the nation, again.
Abramjee When the cabinet still needs to have a meeting to plan, when they could’ve been planning since the outbreak. 🤢
Stop discussing and just implement travel bans. Is that hard to ask CyrilRamaphosa
Cabinet for? I wonder what's next? How did he become president? Just how?🤦🏽♂️💔😭
Cyril is Hopeless, hiding in his Bunker😂
Le rata maka wa tseba mara!
All travels!! Akavale amagates!! 🥺🥺🥺
Didn't they say they were ready
CyrilRamaphosa Abramjee please close the borders , before the situation is uncontrollable 🙏.
What need to be done in combating the virus is obvious. What is the purpose of convening a cabinet meeting? To discuss what? A cabinet comprising of two old non practising doctors? Get serious South Africa!!
There's no need for special cabinet meeting, I bet all the comments in this tweet can solve the problems but ke he won't listen the people who sent him
He will probably tell u to wash our hands more😒
The world is reacting by taking action but we still need to discuss...
They going to discuss how to steal money while the virus is viral.
More Spread at Churches today while the old guards sleep on it. It's extra time injury time now. Must be one phonecall to activate plan xxx by now mos you said you ready.. mxm. Tested positive for uselessness!.
This guy he likes meetings maarn🙄
I doubt that South Africa has capacity to ban anything.
Will the meeting be televised? If yes, what time...
What took him so long mxm he wanted corona to get out of hand first before doing anything.
The only thing that Cyril was praised for was that he has some negotiating skills- (talking/lying/ promising until the interlocutor fall asleep, forget what they are talking about or just loose interest). Now he thinks a virus will relent just like that?
Discussions for what? They said they were ready- they must just activate their plans, not discussions
Someone must die first before they act
I wish he could do the same for crimes, it’s completely out of hand 🙆🏽♀️
Mxm too late
🙄
These useless people like to waste time and money in discussions instead of just taking action. Did they not already plan on the type of action they need to take when things get to this level.
We have a very useless cabinet ever. Arg
This God forsaken idiot should have closed borders and intensified efforts when the first case was confirmed. Together with his fellow looting ministers they should have acted but no the did not. Cyril and the ANC will the the end of this country
Cyril said its to early to close the borders and the airlines .But what confusing is the number of covid 19 its increasing daily . Pliz care for south Africans
Good move CyrilRamaphosa pls do f2f 1. Close all borders 2. Schools need to be a priority 3. Safa & psl must announce no matches for a month or play in empty stadiums 4. No tourists 5. All points of entry must be checked. We thank Dr Mkhize for the whatsapp he created foe info.
Ban all travel, is that difficult to do, contain the virus & isolate, don't expose your citizens further, is it so difficult PresidencyZA
Did he say we are ready before we got our 1st case....
Have we had a fatality on black skin from this pandemic Might sound silly a question but I'm just interested in that detail.
One thing for sure Mr President. 48 hour Turn around time for test results must be minimized. This is a great threat, we can’t have people infecting each other for 2 days before they know they have the disease
LolOk
Is Buffalo a president or what
Abramjee Ramaphosa lack Leadership qualities, he's a coward..
When is South Africa having a complete lockdown or our leaders are waiting for people to die?. Or maybe they what the numbers to increase
Can they invite me to that meeting, I wanna tell them ukuthi inqondo zabo azithathe
The SA Gov should order a 30 days flight ban for airlines coming from Ethiopia, Dubai, and Qatar as these transit hubs give a fertile ground for transmitting this highly infectious virus. Ban direct flights from the UK, Germany, France. Strictly monitor those from Singapore....
What a useless president we have
Abramjee You want to discuss after bringing people in......
Abramjee Ramashocker
Hopefully by tomorrow his campaign funders would have given him a mandate. We wait
And before the meeting we'll be sitting at about 80 cases & no action until deaths are recorded
Mabhena
God is punishing us because of xenophobia
Good move.
38 x the 5people that each of those confirmed cases has had contact with brings the figure to 190. Take a proactive approach not this reactive approach if you really want to save SA
To late
Should have done this today already. To late.
Abramjee Always behind the curve is our Cyril. Never fails to disappoint.
Abramjee close schools ans any massive gatherings, including church. plead to private sector to reduce operational capacity or give leave, or encourage homeworking when possible.
Abramjee We’re going to be told to wash our hands twice. And not eat polony.
Abramjee The sporting government bodies are much more better and faster at decision making than the SA government 😂😂🤣🤣🤣💩💩💩
Abramjee Why always on a Sunday....
It is very simple, impose the travel ban for international travellers. We are done importing this virus. Prepare your Ramapology speech while at it because you should have imposed the travel ban long long ago.
So this cabinet had no plan. Very disappointing
More summits again 🙄mxm
Imagine if Malema's ludicrous wish of abolishing borders was to be adhered to. Nkabe re fedile already. It's running so rife because of Malema! The boy is a danger to this country. We are finished. Siphelile yet authorities keep lying to us
Tell the president to read our tweets as well. We've given him all kinds of solutions already PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa DrZweliMkhize
The country's way of handling this pandemic is too poor and has many loopholes! Smart countries have already closed borders. Beitbridge is a free entrance for foreigners as officials take bribes .our airports don't take temperature on arrivals. What do u expect?
I hope they broadcast it.
Waiting for a meeting on Sunday. ...Does this mean the virus will pause spreading till the meeting on Sunday?
This cabinet must learn from China
When a government has no idea what is going to happen ..they have meetings .. the rest of the world protect their citizens ..immediately
He must do something coz he said we must not panic
Ooh shucks. When are the scientists meeting. Did these scientists did the science we did. It's a pity I retired. We need cure...
What time is the meeting?
Hope measures will be similar to those of other countries,am afraid the accellerated rate covid-19 is pacing on will sweep us all in not long time to come.
Mxm, back-to-back meetings, dololo actions of closing borders and travel bans while most Blacks areas do not have running water!!!!
Most Coronavirus cases are from people who've been traveling abroad Fact. Impose travel ban from abroad for at least 30 days CommonSense
Guys we shouldn't make this a joke
Social distancing + lockdown needed
Why is this man not announcing a travel bann
1 question.... Who got the catering tender and will it be more or less than R50k per head
He need to drop his weight, he take long to react🏃 Now its more than 20 people then he consider intensifying🔥 It means that the lives of those first eight people wasnt enough to be on the line, he needed more victims then he can act G20 measurement similarity🔥
Close borders there's nothing they need to discuss further
It's too late.
Old people don't think straight,we are tired of leading by old folks
All they want is to be reactive instead of planning ahead... We are trully not lead here
CyrilRamaphosa travel ban, temporary close schools,use Robben Island to treat patients,ban public gatherings,ban sports events, church ban, lock down provinces hit by COVID-19 EFFSouthAfrica EFFStudents
He is very slow
Your cabinet is too old. Way of thinking is dated
He could've done this long time ago,he was waiting for more people to be infected
We cant wait any longer. Free test centres must be established asap. E.g trian stations , airports , taxi ranks ect. Travel bans implemented, schools close, employers urged to let their staff work remotely ect.
Can someone with the virus go there without the musk, I wanna see something
Kim just seating there watch us 😂😂😂
mxm ramaphosa wa disspointer we all gonna die
nsukuvalentia
SABC don't give us fake news. Cabinet meeting was called earlier this week not today.
Close our borders now while the situation is still controllable.
That's marvellous,while someone of somewhere was celebrating the coolness of a mortuary.
We don't care for any meeting, just close our borders please Mr CyrilRamaphosa or let PresJGZuma take care of our country since he knows SA better than anyone
Please broadcast live!
