This follows outrage on social media after photos of Ramaphosa and guests at an ankole cattle auction, which was held yesterday, went viral.Ramaphosa’s bid to challenge Parliament’s report into Phala Phala

. The report concluded that there was prima facie evidence that Ramaphosa may have committed a serious violation of the Constitution, law and serious misconduct. This is regarding millions in undeclared foreign currency on his Phala Phala farm in Limpopo. Legal expert Mpumelelo Zikalala says Ramaphosa was ill-advised.

“When you agree to be the President or deputy or minister or deputy minister you can’t partake in any other activity which is going to put you in a conflict or create a perception that you may be furthering your interests.

🙏 off to my president please

That's rubbish. Is Cyril not the citizen of free South Africa

This president and all of his ANC cadres do not understand the meaning of an oath. Or morals. Or ethical behaviour. Totally bereft of all moral fibre.

Right now it seems he (and a lot of others in gov) can do whatever they please, and nothing will happen. The era of the untouchables

The default position is that the anc member has done something wrong. It’s the exception to the rule that they haven’t. That’s based on historical trends.

governmentsalaryshedding, the highly paid officials that are killing this country & do not care! so let's try this: Stage 2,3,4 30% salary cut. stage 5,6,7 40% salary cut. Stage 8 upwards 55% salary cut see how quickly they fix this problem The ANC must stop spending our money

impeachramaphosa

We all know that Cyril is the law, nothing is going to happen

He is above the law so nothing will happen to him...

Cows are more important than humans to this clown

What he did was what many public citizens do when they want a day off work, just call in sick. Only difference is he's the President and can't be thinking he's going to fool anyone.

Its not like he cares or something...

Arhg, sometimes these legal experts can mislead us with their analysis

Whats new. They are all corrupt money sucking parasites in the VoetsekANC government

the corrupt PP is a supposed expert her lawyer is a supposed expert we should keep a ledger of these supposed experts especially when they are proven wrong later on

🤯🤬obviously some people think we must be stupid. But the people are conned into such bullshit and don’t realise it because since 1994 education has gone downhill!

And guess what? Cabinet is gonna see no wrong in that or should I say the obvious majority even those who sees it won't be able to express themselves in case there's disciplinary hearing against them

PublicProtector MmusiMaimane Our_DA HermanMashaba may take him to account please

Ramaphosa must resign immediately because there's a conflict of interest, he cannot be a President ignoring urgent state matters but has time for his cattle auctions SouthAfrica Eskom EskomCrisis Eskom_Criminal_Network ANCriminal_Syndicate Loadsheddings EskomCorruption

Which legal expert? Stop lying 🤥

Zikalala is not a law experts but a political commentators.

Along with the fact that he committed high treason against all citizens of our country. He is a pathetic excuse for a leader and an even worse human being

violation of oath word now used loosely.

What a useless president

RamaphosaMustGo

This man is no longer committed to the cause to fast track the country to recovery now that he sees the dollars in cattle

V

Can the May Have stop now can't it be something certain.

I wish that my side hustle was as lucrative as Ramaphosa's.

Knives are permanently drawn out for Ramaphosa by his detractors. Even for petty things they want to stab.

Relieve this one off his duties, the job is too much for him

😂 😅🤣 you call this breaking? Perhaps try. The ANC and it's voter base has broke SA.

Bjanong Gona ba Mo Nyaka marago a noga

When is this doos going to be removed from office? Its clear that even the blind can see that this guy is making a mockery of all Citizens and he does give 2 fucks of the Oath he took when he entered the Presidency

He has abused the trust of his people, he must step down 👇 South African's must learn to unit and lift up 👍 the country to what it was before with the white government, everyone could live, the economy and management of the country was good 👍

I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't trying to get fired. He tried to resign and was stopped because the A NC know they lose '24 without him. So now he tried the 'sick' day on a Friday trick.

We are the only ones worried about the state of the country Ramaphosa doesn't give two sh*ts about anything. Nigga don't care!

Any other country would have seen its citizens attacking this blatant disregard for law and order. Any other country would have thrown out such rubbish long ago.

iyagula lenja engathi ingafa umsunu wakhe

So called 'President.....' You are a despicable human being that ever walked this earth. You are corrupt and you are the one who promotes corruption....'. I wait for the day......Anna Maistry MD Sarta Recruitment

He is as corrupt and incompetent as the people he PROMISED to put behind bars when he first took up the office of President. He is supposed to represent ALL SA people, not just the chosen few.

SofaKing Cyril, president of the cows.

Sober legal expert, but judiciary is so drunk they can't even hide it especially when it concerns Cyril PhalaPhalaFarmGate

The whole MYANC is one big violation

He is above the law😂

Pride comes before the fall Cyril.

I think so-called Legal Experts should come clean. The Programme that was intended to show that CR was violating his office was distributed in the social media. The programme clearly shows the Manager of the farm. Does that mean he cannot even go to his farm?

There time in SA when we awake up we had new cabinet Zuma era ,today the country is begging the president to do reshuffle of his own cabit ,Cyril is not interested to be president of this country

We need a leader that can build south africa not break it more than it already is broken. He must resign from office before he does more damage than is already done.

The way I si things it's like he is ANC,NEC,top7,he report to no one he own our beloved movement

GautengANC Ramapussy must step down, his not presidential material. If not expect more legal action

Akaphume angalokhu esibangela isicefe

Aew we bewitched as a country or what? Why are we allowing the president to treat us like this ?

he said at the auction 'that other one (SA prez title) is just a nice to have.' fcking traitor.

Guys we all have sick notes at work. I might be booked off on Wednesday and Thursday and Friday be back. Being sick doesn’t necessarily mean hospital bed

Where those that said he wasn't gone make it or isn't there

He must just resign

NtlanganisoG Tsek! Mr mattress doesn't care

Give him a break he is securing his future now, he knows presidency is going to be short time to go. It a done deal. Just a matter of time until even the ANC will have to remove their newly re-elected president.

Mxm,journalists you are useless

Sensationalist headlines that mean nothing. Wow he wasnt feeling well thursday, possibly the flu, medicated & slept & on friday he felt better. So what it happens. If it was on thurs during the so called gov work or announcement then id say yeah. But really? Ppl grasping here!

I said the Legal Experts & Political Experts are same what's group from the RET Faction. What violation of Oath are you talking about? Must Cyril report to anyone whenever is going somewhere? CyrilRamaphosa

Pathetic legal commentary

Which oath?

Bullshit lies.

He may have committed another violation of the oath of his office & no one will hold him to account,our legal experts are good at pointing out problems but no legal action will be taken against the man that has violated the oath of his office because he's above the law

This dude doesn't give a fak about south africa nor its citizens period

Bafwe2 maka hambe lo jita.

not quilty,hes an African.Responsibility does not apply

Re mo rata kao fela

This man cannot be trusted...like all of his cabinet. Skelms

May have.... go monate neh

He has done thousands now since in office 🙈😡

There is no leadership in Cyril

Because he’s a f&cking liar we all know this!

He told us that the Presidency job is a side job his real job is to be the President of ankole cattle 🤷 that video was also viral like this one 🤞

His bosses have archived what they wanted he is now going to resign

uloyiwe lomuntu, akekho umuntu obheda kangaka.

He has accomplished what he was sent to do. He's now ready to leave this country in a mess. Don't be suprised when he announces his resignation

Get rid of him. Crook

Did the president said he was sick? Would he deliberately take pictures when he was sick? The propaganda being spread to destabilize and remove the sitting.

Just another day in Annals of National Corruption

rancid rama, expired, useless, untrustworthy, pretender, putin-friend

But he was sick? 🤔🤔🤔

Hope so

Ramaphosa doesn't care ANYMORE about the country . I don't understand why he doesn't RESIGN

Is president not protected by labour laws,I mean does he not having working hours like 8 to 4 ?🤔🤔

Kant he told who that he was sick ? This news of always speculating is taking us no where . Journalists r now busy with speculation instead of giving us facts. Can u pliz show us where hexsaid that he was sick

Mr Infinite supply of wealth laughing his head off at us. The Oppenheimers and Ruperts deserve their president of their fiction GOVT. If ppl understand that Democratic Republic of SA don't exist its all fiction. The real GOVT a corporation exist or not. Seems like both don't lmao

Iyandelela lempongo le ayinandaba iyazi inabavikeli

Not may. He has.

This guy needs to just quit his job and retire on his lodge selling cattle... open cheque books are getting thinner and thinner.

He must resign

Opposition parties in parliament must oppose the ANC's state of emergency. Clearly there's no sense of urgency or emergency here.

Masepa motho nxaa

Where at thou ThuliMadonsela3? You're quiet when it comes to Cyril aren't you?

Arrrgggg maaan not again, 🚶👎💩

I don't get why people get mad at him. He is a business man. He had his businesses before becoming President. He just a puppet and a business man

This man is ready to go GwedeMantashe1 please uncle let him go...he is tired shame. Work on something new Ramaphosa is tired shame. Let Establishment know they need to let him go.

While he said he's sick

The result of forcing a person NOT to resign when he wants to. Thanks to ANC...

One thing about this so called experts is that most of the time, they talk nonsense. They lack experience and think they know it all.

This one and his ankoles are inseparable. The ANC must just recall this clueless madala

Their arrogance will always be pushed in our faces because unfortunately what can us South Africans do..?

Tell the legal expert that his analysis or opinion is misguided.

You're going to have to go through Cyril's militant midget, Athi. Good luck

Mokone shud just step down&enjoy his riches

Not MAY HAVE, HE DID.

Why doesn't he just step down already. It's not like he wants to be president anyway!

I'm ready to be President, just hang on I'm getting my ducks in a row 😁

I think Cyril was trying ‘presidenting’ as a hobby Think about it! 🧐🧐🤨🤨🤨

Actually, he doesn't seem like he wants to be our president this one. It looks like he is forced into doing the job.

Not sick at all. Attended an auction instead of attending his job

Ramaphosa like Munangagwa disrespect the supreme law of the land.South Africans have every reason to be worried .

Anc will protect him again..

Ramaphosa is full of it and uyadelela. This President disrespects the citizens.

Practically being 'President' is his Side Hustle... being a businessman who sells Ankole is the main job.... our country is indeed on 'AutoPilot'...
