ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa wants party members to push for investment in local governments in the run-up to this year's municipal elections.

“We must market our towns and local government areas to would-be investors with a view to create employment. We must become advocates of investment,” he said.

“Our people want to see that we are going to deploy capable people who can demonstrate that they can do the work, not just a comrade who knows slogans and to toyi-toyi. That is part of what has been our downfall. We need comrades who will work and will look after the money of the people. He said the company was shutting down in the North West because it was not getting support from the local government.He suggested this should be a lesson for others because meaningful jobs are created at the local level.

CR, you can throw as much money as you like at the ANC run municipalities and you will achieve nothing. It is not about finance but about competence and work ethic. Throw in a little honesty as well.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Lol, what investors?

Ha ha!

U gotta be joking Mr Pres? Or ru 🧐

WHY? Ramaphosa so that the ANC can steal and miss-use the investors money along with the taxpayers money. Fat chance - this country will see a drop in investment because of labour unions ruling the roots, protests, droughts, and no freeking electricity that costs us 14% MORE.

😂😂😂. I just got back from Lydenburg. What a mess. Why invest?

Again. Inept government wanting others to bail them out of the holes they've dug themselves into. Have no idea how to WORK and be accountable for their actions.

Does he mean selling them to individuals like Zuma tried to sell the country to the Guptas? A 'let's try again on smaller scale' type of thing?

Ramaphosa makes no commitment to transformation our economy. ZERO.

CyrilRamaphosa & MYANC …. Who in their right mind will invest in a town where services have collapsed due to corruption, patronage & incompetence? What a joke 😂😂😂😳

That killed poor miners for gain using police man!

When lives of the poor stay the same whilst politicians are moving forward

So this companies can arrest our Youth if they disagree with the way they do thing! No thanks: today our Youth of HOSPITAL VIEW,Tembisa is appearing at Tembisa court for doing nothing! Have been in prison for a month denied bail like they criminals!

In slick kinda way...rete la Rupmaster

The most important key to successful leadership is your ability to direct and challenge the very best that is in those whom lead you, thanks a lot Mr James JAmSRcharD

Market potholes,failing electricity and general incompetence.This man is out of touch with reality his delusion is scary,

He meant money laundering

Market out town for investors? Let's start with basic service deliver. Might I remind you about a certain cheese factory?
