Ramaphosa never particularly disappointed me until today after reading this tweet. 'Investors', tjo!

When he hosting a Q and A session?

Yes, and?

As if 'investors' are not behind electricity crisis at Eskom in Order to pace way for RE

We know that those who should be responsible for our current situation as nation don't suffer the same pain as our own self as for the poor we will remain poorer and poorest

Nato puppet

No shit Sherlock. Investors are normally people with common sense, that’s why they have money. Being intelligent people, they would not invest a cent while the comrades are in charge🤮🤮🤮🤮

All talk this so called President.

Tsek!

Ramaphosa he's not make sure this one.

Thumamina

Uyanya! It's their mess.

What about Phalaphala

So what are you doing about this?

This loadshedding and stages thing is a scam. How do they know there not enough power in advance? And how they know there will be breakdowns in advance? They think we are idiots. There is no electricity crisis. This is all caused by anc theft and corruption..

So what? What is he doing about it? Useless president Cyril Ramaphosa 👃

We're in this mess because of these fools

Nonsense, why do we have loadshedding if those fake investors addressed electricity crisis.

Can someone clarify for me on which measures our government has put in place to end load shedding besides repairing the broken power plants? Eskom reportedly experiencing problems on a regular basis. It will be good to know if Eskom has started building any new power plants

How can investors address our electricity issue? Did they not raise the issue instead? Re na le mathata a serious mo. So we waiting for investors to address our issues? Do we still have a country has it been outsourced already? MYANC MyPAConline Rise_Mzansi EFFSouthAfrica

A liability to our country this one.
