President Cyril Ramaphosa has called on former Eskom Group CEO Andre de Ruyter to approach law enforcement agencies on the corruption at the power utility.

The President says he was disappointed and concerned about the revelations of the former Eskom Executive on the problems besieging the power utility.

He asserts that he has complete faith in law enforcement officials and that they are capable of conducting very thorough investigations. The President claims that the former Eskom executive missed a golden opportunity to expose corruption. De Ruyter left the power utility with immediate effect after alleging that a cabinet Minister wanted a few comrades to benefit from ill-gotten gains.

The corrupt President is advising one to report to the police knowing full well that he has destroyed the whole Judicial system. Police are worst than toothless dogs. We are cursed as a country.

What's point when law enforcement agencies are just as corrupt?!!!!1

another commission of enquiry,jeer

When millions of dollars were stolen from his farm,did he approach the law enforcement agencies ? 😏

He needs to do what the President says. But he has got to have police protection as this is politics and there are so many ways of information or dockets dissapperaring and witnesses not having thier chance to exercise thier democratic freedom of expression in revealing the truth

Ngiphuphe ngise UK 🇬🇧

In some countries, like Brunei, the President runs the country AND manages portfolios. So if Pres CR really wants to, he can also assume the position of Minister of Electricity, appoint an Engineer as Eskom CEO, give the CEO his full support & have the CEO report directly to him

Maybe his life was threatened?

Sure, your corrupt buddies are waiting in the wings. Tsek ANC. I truly hope he has better commonsense that trust the ANC government run departments.

Like he called for law enforcement on phala phala

Obviously he missed the interview, busy where they can get more money. You and party destroyed SA

I am not EFF but i support them when they say Ramaphala must fall he doesn't care about ppl of South Africa how can u say that it is not your problem that Eskom has failed, (non of your business) ay, uyadelela lo baba mnxx...........😡, He does not feel shame of himself saying it

Did he approach police on Phalaphala too?

This one must RamaphosaMustGo

He didn’t approach law enforcement himself in phala phala , we all know they are useless

The plot is to discredit Andre du Ruyter's allegations and assassinate his evidence. It's a mafia's game of thrones. Ramaphosa is fully aware of what is happening to Eskom_SA and know the level of corruption there. He must stop playing us dumb as President.

It's a trap. SAPS is just as corrupt

You are just as quilty

CyrilRamaphosa you want him to approach law enforcement because you know the SAPS are just as corrupt as you

The President is selective about which part of the interview he wishes to apply. This echoes most people’s frustrations in that there is no faith in the SAPS to perform their duty diligently. Mirrors those 2 fine segaents who thought De Ruyter had sinus problems😂 SAPSBEST

President Ramaphosa you are very well aware of the corruption taking place at Eskom, but you chose to turn a blind eye because the ANC party is benefiting from the looting at Eskom. You are a very very weak President. I'm sorry to say it. You failed our people

So this man called Matamela was waiting to make sure it was not one of his....now that he has a assurance he says the white guy called de Ryter must report...y now

When you tell the minister how much further can you go. They should have started investigating then. Very scary that they did not. They took it to a point that he became the fall man.

you can't even lay a power theft charge at the police station.

But yet our president did not report corruption he is aware of

Law enforcement should be with de Ruyter if they are serious about law enforcement.

The mind really and truly boggles with this guy - does he even know how to spell the word 'President' or does he just like the title because it puts him on a par with the big wigs like Biden and co. What does he think the function of a President of a country is

Who must De RUYTER report the corruption to as law enforcement is absent in South Africa. So many commission of enquiries and no arrests yet as criminals work in your government. You yourself Mr President violated the constitution of South Africa with your Phala Phala.

Who's fooling who? We all know that the levels of corruption go all the way to the top. Thank you to Mr de Ruyter for opening the eyes of many South Africans. We salute you.

Lmao 🤣🤣🤣 makes no sense really. Why now because he went public. Why not when he informed you all previously.. I guess he hit a very big nerve.

We're tired of this stupid news and nothing changes after called on , stages are going up again,

He pretends that he knows nothing since many years not only Eskom other SOEs are being looted and he got all evidences from Zondo for each corrupt but staying quite

Maybe he should watch the interview? Andre de Ruyter has done so and a few of the MANY criminals HANDED OVER got R500 bail from the state. This was also brought to the attention of senior, currently serving members of parliament. Can someone pls draw a picture?

Really!!! He had to protect himself and his family.

He isn't disappointed..because he is aware of the crime in all SOEs

Ha what a joke, Andre de Ruyter did that and NOTHING was done just like everything else in South Africa just gets left as there is no law and order anymore. Roads look terrible, water runs for days sometimes months in streets due to leads or burst pipes or broken meters

Are we sure these agencies have clean hamds? Follow the trail of crumbs and you will find hands that were in the cookie jar. Possibly even hands belonging to top brass (who will block investigations) in these law enforcement agencies. Will there be real consequence management?

I'm sure he is terribly disappointed that the truth came out. There is a failure of action from government, because they have to 'eat a little' Hello darkness my old friend, you're killing SA softly with corruption

Maybe he should watch the interview? Andre de Ruyter has done so and a few of the MANY criminals HANDED OVER got R500 bail from the state. This was also brought to the attention of senior, currently serving members of parlamaint. Can someone pls draw a picture?

And we are all disappointed in Ramaphosas own corruption and the enablement of the ANC elites corruption

This is a rogue president... none the better than the previous one!!! He made his intention clear... party before country. NOW they ALL must pay the price. I hope Black people will vote sensibily come 2024!!!

That's rich coming from you Buffalo!!

President yenza ngako konke Kuba kudala sibuzana ezimali kuthwa zinikwa Eskom zisiwaphi kodwa sisapiliswa isi film si cinyelwa umbane ngabom

Shit CR17 Shocked again?.. must connected to Patrice's African Rainbow Electricity grid because EkIsDom have no supply... What a Wimp👏

Ramaphosa should resign with immediate effect. Those he trusts, already failed Eskom and the phalaphala case

Please WATCH De Ruyter's interview with Anika Larsen again. De Ruyter said that while he was at Eskom, he called in top Generals from the SAP & SAS to inform them about Eskom's corruption, and they did NOTHING; suffice to say that De Ruyter executed his fiduciary responsibility.

What about laying a charge at the International Court of Justice in the Hague?

I used to be in his corner all the time , but he is becoming the useless president after De Klerk.

Nadat ek voordeel getrek het uit 'n weeklikse belegging, moet ek sê dat almal moet ophou val vir groot duisende, baie het belowe en misluk uit 'n honderd beleggings. MarkMaynardq is die beste. Jou inkomste hang af van jou kapitaal, handel met wie gewaarborg is van wins opbrengs.

Namibia should loan President Hage Geingob to SA, just for a week SA will return to it's former glory

I hope Andre is safe outside the country. We know what the ANC are capable of 😱

Corruption won't stop until we find justice in South Africa. People are busy stealing money and become billionaire. My biggest concern why President fail to fighting Crime and corruption in state? If it was during apartheid period wouldn't this kind of mass up.

This corruption must end it makes Ower country look bad we will loss investment if the corruption caries on like this.

He learned from him, he never reported stolen dollars in any police station, how can he be disappointed?

Which ones because he already did and nothing happened

Tell him to raise his concerns also with law agencies

Andre de Ruyter corruption scapegoat

Cyril must not nyel us, Arthur Fraser approached the Police with piles of evidence against him and opened a case. What did those law enforcement agencies do by now? He must not kakel us this one
