SARS is quite but for us poor people they are so loud.

Give the man a Break Shame 🤣🤣🤣

Changing the President is no helping the country is like changing the mug when drinking Ricoffy the problem is the content not the mug. So the problem is not the president is the Party. Let us change the party. The many Parties God help us to open our eyes if we can not see.

Another question is that why is he bypassing all other courts and jump straight to the constitutional court?

M M O9 Injn

Ioo .. N i . K .i

What do you mean by in an attempt? So you already ruled everything out at SABC 🙄

What goes around comes around, Now Mr Rama its your time to taste your own medicine ,Zuma is in pain bcoz of you , now face it

Breaking all the laws just to stay afloat, he want to seal everything yet we are told he is transparent

ANC NEED TO GO. THE WHOLE LOT OF THESE GANSTERS IN SUITS. CORRUPT AS FCUK!!!!

Leave ramaposa alone

A right you have,a right you decide to exercise or not

You what they say:'Never throw stones if you live in a glass house'. Thabo Mbeki didn't see it coming; Jacob Zuma didn't either, but, Cyril definitely never saw it coming because of his 'radical economic transformation' mumbo jumbo and his golden boy status.

What review? Lots of Foreign currency was found in his place. Bridge of contract he's done. He must not waste our time but resign in peace

The ANC must push the Phala-Phala farm issue to after their National Elective Congress. We hope they will consider the masses that mandated them 1912.

He may win at the constitutional court because his friend is there Raymond Zondo but he has to deep deeper from his pocket this time I lost trust and respect to our judiciary it is no longer independent those judges are captured by the whites monopoly.

Since south africa is a democratic country i think its time to have a white or indian President its enough with black presidents

He should pay tax like the rest of us on that money 💰

Which politician is above board in the way they conduct business? They promise their constituents the world, when they should be aware that 'Promises are like babies - easy to conceive but difficult to deliver'.

You're spot on maan he's only serving the white capitalist and only the white minority not all the south African whites that must be clear

Communists never give up control..they also stick together no matter what the outcome...

Zuma u utsoa chelete ea mmuso lea mo tebela, Ramaphosa u utsoetsoa chelete ea hae lea motebele kanthi what do south Africans want?

Where is the ANC step aside rule? He did admit having the dollars at his farm. Where's Ace Magashule....do the right thing! Just step aside

I personally think their fight within the party

If Ramaphosa retires south africa will turn into Zimbabwe

Uyasinyela lophala phala

I think he's like a dog in the box, can't run, everyone knows him now. The ANC is going down the drain 😕 with him as well. Zuma was better than him.

Animal farm comes to mind:' we are all equal,but some are more equal'

I still don't see what the big deal is at least he did not steal from us like all the others .....this is his own money that was stolen but yeah all the noise to get rid of him makes one think he is cleaning up and they all running scared now they using this to get rid of him

I'm so glad to hear that, please don't bring us RET group back, we will be worse off.

Hello Zuma?!?!

Its a brilliant strategy.....its the ANC's elective conference in under two weeks.....so this buys him time.....so he's still eligible to contest

Ramaphosa must fall there is no other way. The is messing everything up.

It is time that we support him.. its his money, not tax money.. why is some people screaming so muvh

You are talking nonsense my friend, he has don't nothing he reported the case to his head of his security. Remember there are two things here, evidence and information. We need evidence not information dude.

This man can run...to courts if he wants. it's the court of public opinion that's got his number.

Bcoz when RAMAPOSA came,he wanted to show people like he is holly when is the one who's the responsible for killing at MARIKANA, and he broke the laws about hiding foreign currencies in his palapala.he broke everything without to rebuild, and you people want him again?yoo

Will there ever be peace in South Africa, when ever they have good PRESIDENT they will find ways to remove him and placed an incompetent fela, HANDS OF RAMAPHOSA, Do not destroys this country again....

How can even go to constitutional court? Cyril must just be removed, he is not special

Always run to courts when in the shit , tis all they know , if he was so innocent then he would stand his trial and prove it , typical anc/politician style.

Despite Phalaphala saga, Ramaphosa must also have his Nkandla built by government money. All presidents have tgeir own Nkandlas

Zondo to the rescue! He already got rid of Zuma wil he be Cyril's savour Id say yes who pays his salary.....

I thought you will say he resigned

And who the hell pays for all this 😡 too many of them caught out but sweet fek all happens with justice system 💩😡

South africa Was first let down by white apartheid regime mafias, stilling from government 's coffers

Cyril akatyanga Mali he is innocent

Its all smells the same to me no matter how is narrated!

Haa SABC its old news moss yhoo

CyrilRamaphosa Our Country needs you- God Bless SouthAfrica SouthAfricans need GoodNews & PositiveVibes

Raymond Zondo jurisprudence intelligence will be tested here we gonna know for sure if he is indeed captured because Ramaphosa confirmed one the charges brought against him.

But when it's voting time, you will all go & vote for him njena sometimes you are so confusing😏 but wethu mandthule zingekatyi kum 🤫🤔

Cyril is not my President. He must be removed and prosecuted.

everyone is rotten to the core.

Why does SA focus on all the wrong matters? Ramaphosa is best candidate for the presidency, he has helped us survive convid. Focus on job creation, international investments, the crime rate but no we wanna waste resources on this bull.

Cyril must go like others no where to run.

He is going to seal the report

The opposition parties must just forget, Ramadollar is taking the report to his friend Zondo at the ConCourt.🤣🤣🤣

If he was guilty , he would not go to the highest court in the land and risk being jailed. Our Constitutional Court is one with integrity. As for the thief Zuma who stole from the poor he was avoiding court by telling us that he is dying. Voetsek you Thiefmongers

Mr President you need to be a role model for this country. Are you above the LAW ?

Why not all of us become politicians?

Nkandla 2.0 CyrilRamaphosa is getting wrong legal advice he will have to disclose everything now. The looters MYANC must start looking for a new leader.

Interesting that they all run to the constitutional court when caught with their hands in the cookie jar! If he is so innocent, why go to the constitutional court? South Africa needs to be rid of this ANC mafia running this country 👿

He is going there knowing gore bra zondo is on his side

He clearly disagrees with the report which many believe to be flawed. So he is exercising his cibstutional right to apply for it to be reviewed.

Is Ramaphosa want to avoiding to being questioned because he does not have answer he just want fabricate things that is why he always need more time, now his doing what Kelly Khumalo did jumping for lawyers while he has not being called yet to answer or being charged.

Matamela uyasinyela siyi country

The man must go period

Lephalaphala is doing what Zuma is doing why double standard. We are being used by politicians no body cares about our interest

Ramaphosa is wealthy he doesn't need anyone's money ...this is just the RET gangsters r desperate now no more looting for them... Cyril should have put all of them in prison...Dy r trying everything just to get rid of him...Karma will get them very soon.

Why is He running to the Constitutional Court if He is innocent

Is Ramaphosa want to avoiding to being questioned because he does not have answer he just want fabricate things that is why he always need more time when it comes to answers because if he does it should not be a problem to answer, If he want to save his dignity he must resign.

Happy that President CR has chosen to fight. The S89 report is fatally flawed. Any competent Lawyer that READS it will tell you that. The S89 Authors forgot their role and desperately tried to act as judge, jury, & prosecutor in a pitiful attempt to drive their own agenda.

Nevermind he is corrupt everyone is but if he goes theres only someone worse that can take his place

To open a file papers for what? I do not understand is he feeling guilty because if he is not he should not go against as it say he might have a case to answer, if things were stolen in your house you are the one whose a victim and bring more information of what transpired.

From low class citizen of this country commenting from the ground .every person who voted for Ramaphosa then for him to became a president they knew as we all know is a business man weath billions did they investigate how he makes his money ( Clean or Dirty ) SA and It's Drama

Dear uncle Cyril is undoubtedly guilty of contravention of foreign currency regulations.... Who keeps forex hidden in a couch, only those guilty of not keeping it in a safe.... where if investigated, thats the first place to look.

Oki.kookkkkkokkk ..ini

It's about time, flawed report.

Wasting our tax payers money !! Step a side and deal with it on your own time.

Reminds me of Robert Mugabe when he wanted to throw in the towel then his comrades told him to fight another day. AfricaLeaders

He will not win that battle it's just a waste of time

Wasting the court 's time with a report that never said you are guilty. The questions that need to be answered remain. This is low.

Please tell me it’s not Dali

If Cyril is innocent, why is he running to the court, wether we like him or not is the question, Cyril must be treated the same way as Zuma was treated, Cyril is the President now coz white media and capital still wants him to be, not the people of SA. We all equal

But we know whats gonna happen at constitutional court. Time to pay for a favor

He is desperate
