Ramaphosa says work is already underway within government “to establish whether the legal requirements for the declaration of a national state of disaster are met and what specific actions we would be empowered to undertake to urgently resolveCurrently, the country is on stage 4 load shedding and the system is still under pressure.
“This lekgotla has provided clear direction on what needs to be done to end the energy crisis as a matter of extreme urgency and to establish a firm foundation for energy security and sustainability into the future,” Ramaphosa explains.Meanwhile, the ANC has also proposed the setting up of a Delivery Command Centre at its headquarters to monitor, ensure and fast-track service delivery across the country.
The country has been grappling with the provision of services with rubbish in some communities not being collected for days compounded by rolling blackouts. Says ANC president, “This should package and monitor key deliverables on basic services such as water and sanitation, human settlements, roads and infrastructure maintenance.”
In his closing remarks to the NEC Lekgotla, president Ramaphosa says they want all ANC branches to submit progress reports on service delivery in their wards.
If you cause a problem then want to be a solution um don’t think so, while you training more policing more surveillance maybe another lockdown sounding more like shenanigans at work right? It’s a failed state just declare it already ..
This government was never there to uplight the people of this land but rather put in place for the destruction of it. Cyril is a spokesman he is not running this country it’s the Oppenheimers Rothchilds and the Ruperts and the people know it.
This not only keeps them in their seats the problem is not going away the more they can swindle the better this is worse than the guptas not held accountable worse than a mafia ridden failed state. I’ve now lived thru what was good and everyone happy to a disaster how?
If this is declared a national disaster now how come it wasn’t declared since 2008 ?
Just like the DA suggested ages ago
I am 31years old I've never voted in my life and I regret it mybe my vote and a million others would have made a difference, I can't wait to vote the 1st time in my life .my vote goes to for Our_DA come 2024 CyrilRamaphosa is the worst nightmare south Africa has ever had
The people have kept this disastrous ANC in power for the past 28 years so we cannot complain about what we voted for. The future of our children is in our hands to make sure that this will not happen again. Time for this government to go.
Dear president. Did the ANC really need a Lekgota to declare the energy crisis a national state of disaster? who did not know that?
I think POTUS and King Charles together with Klaus Schwab and all WEF minions very impressed with energy destruction plan....PresidencyZA ...well done good servant
man made problems
until further notice
Let it be solved
Legotla....now that's a disaster
The whole country should be state of disaster
Just privatise and get done with it already. The whole planned implosion and financial drain is old news. This government needs to resign over its lack of governance. Shameful ignorance.
Is the capacity to manage this?
Here we go again. Another way to steal money. This country still does not know what happened to 500billion. Not a hospital was upgraded. So. Much was stolen. We are already in so much debt billions. China owns us. Now the ANC want more
What utter b.s we do not have electric garbage trucks so that does not prevent them doing their rounds. 2 state of disaster = more misuse of funds. 3 we will not comply to lockdown!
Aaaaah, come on, stop moaning people, it's not that bad, I still managed to make 2 cups of hot coffee and 2 slices of 'almost' toast with yesterdays electricity. God help us
A crisis which was always in the making thanks to the greed of the African National Circus and it's cadres. The power utility went from international hero to zero thanks to their lack of or incompetence to govern the country properly. Load shedding has become their Waterloo
He wants to loot like during COVID. He must not be allowed to do that rubbish
What a curse to this country this man is 🚮
Self created disaster kkkkkk matamela will this end well,uuuuhhhmmmm
It’s already a national state of disaster for more than a year CyrilRamaphosa - Welcome to the same page everybody has been on for a while now….Self made billionaire my ass

O’K salayo wa VAYA morena🤝20 March is FREEDOM DAY.
Please explain the practical implications?
Pillaging of railroad, cable theft, load shedding, sabotage at Eskom, corruption,porous borders,car hijacking, gunning down citizens, undocumented immigrants,drug trafficking or dealing, illicit cigarettes,etc are economic sabotage. Declare State of emergency
Disaster that ia self created. Mnxim

Hopefully the block across the border will be inspired by the move
