But let's spend R22m on a flag pole and

What is he planning to do to prevent it?

Nare sa reng so se. We are already in difficult times. What comes is the culmination of him and his friends pillaging SA coffers nou o iketsa motho.

Then we have the likes of NathiMthethwaSA wanting to spend 22Bar like we don’t have issues facing us nx! We remain doom with all those golden oldies occupying decision making positions in Parliament 🥹🥹🥹 Cry my Beloved Country

Kanti we always facing Difficult times. Aowa 🚮🚮🚮🚮

But why the fuck is your GovernmentZA giving away millions to foreign governments, let's start there🙄

We are already paying so much for fish oil, what more. Ai, ai.

Stop giving money away and stop all the name changing feed the local people let Cuba sort their own shit out

Buy more 22m flags

But a previous FM told us we gonna be alright! 😂😂😂

But there's R360 million for Cuba ? 🙄🙄

So what must we do in preparation of the tough times ahead?

Which, presumably means we've been having a fantastic time up until now. Why's nobody told Me about it. I'd have loved to be part of it.

Who caused this?

But they wanna spend 22 million on a Flag

Tough times ahead means a steep increase on interest rates. Fact is we are already struggling, can barely make it to month end. Cannot meet my monthly obligations, live by negotiating with creditors while someone spleshes R22m. Life is not fair

Yet ANC steals every rand they can...flags of R22m....money to Cuba....court cases paid by us....we are a failed state.....proof me wrong!!

Ja because of the incompetence of the leaders

Nothing new to see here... move along.

Moerse fokken nuus. Ek sou dit nooit kon rasi nie.

Yet you want to build a R 22milion flagpole, and gift Cuba R 400 million.

KhofuMoahloli Tell him to stop writing cheques giving away my tax money to foreign countries!

They take at least 2 trillion in taxes. and turn SA into a nightmare with that money. they have no plans only platitudes. savings and staff cuts not the communistic way. sadly for them the cupboards are nearly empty ANC going cannabilise themselves to SA torment

We are loosing jobs because of mandatory vaccination 😭😭😭😭

Then why are they giving money to other nations in the form of 'donations' and putting up a stupid R22-million flag?

What are we in now? Easy times? What he should say because of our looting and bad management of the country you as the citizens will suffer its on us we apologise and will do better but they won't because they believe they are entitled to it🚮🙄

Why with the saver AKA Ramaphosa

Why then do we have wasteful expenditure on cosmetics for the country. All SA flags should fly at half mast as Govt is killing us as citizens with high fuel prices and corruption.

Coming from a ANC minister who gets a huge salary and all the VIP Perks monthly paid by the taxpayers who must struggle daily to keep their heads above water? How the Fok will he and his ANC cadres really understand how the people of SA SUFFER? they don't suffer financially?😠🤬

Following suit

No shit? I wouldn't have guessed. I'm shocked.

That's nice, considering that the very same country is about to erect a 22million useless flag.

Yet, there is a flag project of R22m

So these are our leaders saying this?

So why are these clowns trying to shipour money overseas and then waste it on meaningless flags poles. Wake the hell up and do your jobs , if you can’t then move on ..

But we can still spare R 22 mil for a flag?

Indeed we do and whose to blame but the ruling party. Time to take responsibility for their inefficiency.

But Nathi wants to erect a R22m flag

Why are there so many deputy ministers even in the presidency there are deputies. Where are government priorities?

If only the government could steal less.....😅

But let's send hundreds of millions to Cuba, R22 million on a flag, millions and millions on hotel accommodation. F4ck this ANC is so put of touch. Ministers should be staying at Sun1 hotels and driving BMW 3 series.

Akuqali namhlanje and nina bona they are making it worse

Tell that to Nathi Mthethwa, we already know sh*t is hitting the fan. It's a bloodbath and only the beninging.....

Maybe the minister must consider stopping his colleague on spending R22 mil on a flag pole 🤔. And say no to Cuba donation 🤔 maybe 🤷🏾‍♀️.

Whaaaaat? Noooooo! VoetsekANC

Wanna know why SA has already been facing difficult times under the corrupt ANC regime? 👇👇👇👇

I guess they are lifting the 1.5 on fuel ?

Are there ever any solutions that this gwavament brings to the table? It's always one problem after the other, never any good news.

I he definitely will not feel one inch. Its highly likely corruption will increase now , so the poor can suffer and the Politicians flowers

SA's Nation debt is at R4.31 trillion , or 69.9% of our GDP, the inept and corrupt ANC regime's accumulated irregular / wasteful expenditure up to Jan 2022 - R488 BILLION. The corrupt ANC regime does NOT care.

But NOT the for the non caring and corrupt ANC regime though.

Ushona Nini veleee

Sikubo manje lobobunzima akhuluma ngabo.

He gets paid a hefty salary to tell us what we know and not provide solutions?

Yey we've been facing difficult times all our lives.

Difficult times started as soon as ANC took over

What do you mean?. Do you think life is easy now, most are suffering already.

That time wena NathiMthethwaSA ufuna uxhoma flag ye 22mill. Asizozi denge

That Stella and Khumbodzo are spending millions. Just sleeping on 5 star 🌟 hotels, while the country is going through difficult economic hardships.

No sh!t Sherlock!

Yet there's a R22m flag to be erected.

yes we know thanking his anc

Would be FANGCUKINGTASTIC if these fools could tell us something we don't already know, considering the ridiculous salaries we pay for their stupidity

Great. But lets give money to Cuba and waste money on flagpoles...

Minister you are dead right just stop R22m flag project

Lies lies lies and while their salaries don't decrease

This country is already facing difficult times mos,I'm not sure if he's not aware of that it's survival of the fittest these days

But still R22m for a flag is nessacery

But they have R22m ye flag.

How can we face difficult times we are having stupid ministers one wanna erect a useless flag the other one sending money to Cuba and yet you say we are facing difficulties noooooo that's a huge lie

We have been hearing this since way before the infamous 'we gon be alright' Minister. Someone out there is looking over us and soon they will be all gone R22mFlag

99% of the country could have told us that… we don’t need ANOTHER finance minister to tell us that. We up the creek in big way

We hear the same story year after year from this goverment. The only ones who don’t have difficult time are the government who get to enjoy spending our taxes on themselves living the life of luxury.😡😡😡😡

Nah, he's getting ahead of himself. The 🇿🇦pole will fix everything. Just chill, Enoch - pull up your deck chair anx watch the flag whistle in the wind. Shooting the breeze. Ain't no need to worry - e'ryting gonna be awhite... flagpole NathiMthethwa

He should tell that to NathiMthethwaSA, Naledi Pandor CyrilRamaphosa because they seem to be spending our hard earned tax rands on vanity projects.

R350 million to Cuba R 22 million on a flag pole R3.6 million for hotels The way myanc is spending we are indeed in for a rough ride. CyrilRamaphosa Has it dawned on you who is fucking up this country? Today is a another day where we will read about corruption.

Did any1 in parly ask him about the flag

We don't need any warnings we know.. what with a bunch of unwanted brothers and sisters from Asia and the rest of Africa

When exactly did the African National Congress hear about this, perhaps they are in shock. South Africans are on their own.

Cut ministers/deputy ministers security it's waste of tax payers money.

Because of the corruption of the ANC time will come whereby you won't be able to pay civil servants their salaries.

But we can afford to spend R22 million on a flag pole? Make it make sense

Typical ANC, he thinks his job is to identify and just tell us the problems, he forgot he is minister employed (ouch deployed) to deal with such difficult times. What is he doing? Corruption is prohibiting full deployment of fiscal policy. Why? Fruitless expenditures everywhere

If you won't be voting CyrilRamaphosa s MYANC come 2024 please let's follow each other

And then what are the solutions to this like this Government pulled out R500 Billion out of no where .Then it disappeared within 3 Months

No hotels for cabinet umntu makalale kwakhe and no expensive cars and bodyguards.

Cut your salaries too you are doing nothing.

🙄 Tell us something we don't know.

TonyBeamish No shit Sherlock

If that is so that the country faces difficult times ahead according to our Finance Minister then why is Minister Nathi Mthethwa spending R22M on a flag for goodness sake? Has he lost his senses?

Cause he's planned them to the last detail

We know. What we don't know is exactly what's up with that SAA deal. How much are taxpayers really in for and how much did they get screwed?

Aibo siku difficult times kuyimanje.

Lol, who doesn't know?

Thanks to CJ Zondo we know where billions in public funds went. C 19 with 99 percent survival rate and the renaming of global warming to climate change won't mask what most can see.

Wow, this guy truly is a genius

Difficult times ahead because we spend money on useless thinks like flags

Eventually the dumb electorate will either wake up or starve to death.

That time Nathi wants to take 22 million and spend it on a flag. A flag bathong😭😭

As he says this there was a minister spending 20 mil on a flag pole and millions on name changes

Like we didn’t know 🙄 Tell him to explain that to Mr R22m Nathi the flag guy

He's about to quit like his Predecessor

Did he tell nathi mthethwa

DOH

He used an euphemism. He should have said SA is bankrupt - due to ANC.

It could have been avoided...

Hardly 6 months in the office he’s got no plan, he failed before he has begun

LethuTheLegend Tell ur friend who wants the flag

We r in diffcult times as it is..kanti were do this people live..and the rich will keep on getting richer

Is it difficult times before or after donation to Cuba and Nathi Mthethwa's flag...Or they're included in the scams.

ohbejoyfull it has been for 28 years so the moral of the story

Fok mannn! In difficult time, some stupid minister pays 22M for a flag, the other 2 spent 3M+ just for hotels ,while at that , his ministry yena Enoch wants to give away 350M to Cuba just for monate. Honestly ba re tlwaela gampe these old people.

The real cost of living is still doing warm ups. What is still to come will be for the history books. Interest rates ⬆️ Fuel ⬆️ Electricity ⬆️ Salaries ⬇️➡️⬅️

Maybe the 22 million flag will help

MahlodiJR All of these ministers must retire. The time is now!

True.... Because ANC cdes spend R22m on flags. R3.7m on traveling and hotels. R700 000 on event food.

Manje

Difficult times caused by their failures to run an economic system effectively, the cadres didn't know that Covid-19 Money circulating amongst themselves doesn't mean it will sustain SA's Economic System. Economics 101 - Money must change hands to make an economy successful

By country, he means other people...

its been facing hard times since 1652

Nothing is working even now moes..0/100.

Mxm as if

Ag voestek , we face difficult times you and co steal easily. Mxm

Then clearly the government isn’t doing a good job

For people ja, but for them on parliament it’s just another day in paradise Million rand hotel stays and a flag pole at R 22 mil, they don’t care

That began when ANC came into power is not a new thing

KhofuMoahloli No credibility here,this minister,no balance. WHTvr happened to that union money that him and his wife,misappropriated 👋

Mnxa

Thanks Mr finance minister, we didn't know we where in shit

Is this before or after the 22million flag

Clearly MPs need a paycut, start paying for their own fuel and accommodation then come chat to ordinary Sans VoetsekANC

Exploitation of our resources to help there're friends and family's called EPWP and Tenderpreneurs nonsense

It’s run by idiots that’s why

That's bound to happen as long as the ANC remains in power.

Politicians won’t even feel tough times 😤😤

Don't preach that to us, tell that to your fking ministers who wants to spend 22 million of tax payers money for a flag pole!

But they are spending money on a ridiculous flag worth R22m.

Min Mthethwa is spending R22m on a flag and you talk of difficult times?

Just stop giving money to Cuba. Its time tax payers money goes to improve South Africa and South Africans.

Another useless minister like Mthethwa, Mbalula, Cele and their president Ramaphosa

KhofuMoahloli Since vele I'm originally broke I don't care how the status of economy se ntsi Jang fokof 😫😫😫

We don't care anymore kyafana you dont give a damn about us nidla nodwa!!

Bring back R50m donation please to avoid this

But they have a budget for a R22m flag

Never mind ahead, we are in difficult times now. Never the less, it is ok ay to give Cuba R50 mil and build a frigging flag pole for R22 mil. The MYANC must get the priorities right!. People are hungry, and must be thankful for R350. grant.

Let's go.... EFFSouthAfrica is the only hope for 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

But his colleague are building flags

Difficult times ahead due to anc theft

Useless

Stop stealing asholes

Tell your ANC cadres that I wonder how much of the 22mil will go in Mthetwas back pocket. While people have no water or food. Kids die of starvation every day. Disgusting

This hardship will evaporate with the demise of the ANC, the implementation initially of austerity measures for all, and making the country a free market investment destination,with minimum government interference.

He should just specify that these difficult times will only apply to ordinary citizens

As if we are not already

22 bar on a flag👀👀👀 surely our finances are looking up? What difficult times?🤔 MYANC GovernmentZA

As if these tough times were not created by his ANC and himself busy stealing money

Somebody in government better inform Cuba know.

Oh yena! EnochGodongwan2 EGodongwana kanti when are we getting a portion of our pension money

Please tell us something whe don't know

Whose faults that

The warning should have been to alert us that this one knows not what he is doing‼️

Talk to your cadre friends.

Everyone knows the problems but they all devoid of real plans they know how to implement other than dish out more & more social grants.

Because ANC looters are continuing to loot as usual

Stop fuking stealing and things will get better... Wheres the Gupta money and stolen assets..

Is this guy for real? South Africa has faced hard times since 27 April 1994.

Because upu want to spend money on a pole .... eish

No we don't Take your flipping fists out of the state coffers. In fact. I'm sure the state coffers has probably been stolen too
