Ramaphosa on Eskom state of disaster: 'There’s not going to be looting. There’s just going to be a process to ensure that we deal with the crisis.' SONA2023

CAPE TOWN - President Cyril Ramaphosa is adamant that there will be no looting of state funds after he declared South Africa's energy crisis a national state of disaster with immediate effect.

In his Sona speech, Ramaphosa said the Auditor-General would be brought in to ensure the continuous monitoring of expenditure, in order to guard against any abuses of the funds needed to attend to the disaster. "And it’s quite interesting that they called for a state of disaster and now that we’ve declared it they are opposed to it. They are opposed to it for a very strange reason that there’s going to be looting. There’s not going to be looting. There’s just going to be a process to ensure that we deal with the crisis," said the president.

Ramaphosa characterised the DA's concern about possible Looting during the StateOfDisaster for the ElectricitySector as 'strange'! Is this guy for real? Given the ANCGovt & ANCDeployees record of CorruptionAndLooting in handling the CovidReliefFunds, it's a given!!

Ja ja! Speaking bull!

Pull the other toe VoetsekANC

We heard that with the Covid state of disaster and look what happened. Looting on an epic scale!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

🤣🤣🤣🤣No Looting 🤣🤣🤣🤣

A process, really

You are so funny. We heard that all before with covid and that was a looting GALA event.

No where have we heard that before?!

We heard that in June 2020 with COVID. Verbatim.

Hahahahahahaha ... watch this space.

My trust in you is gone. Lies, empty promises are the only replies we get. Voetsek anc

CyrilRamaphosa the maybe 'no' looting but lots and lots of gratitudemoneys will be distributed! It's the African way! S&T

Does a politician get a quote of lies, and after that they miraculously tell the truth?

Are smokes and dop going to be banned?

Didn't he promise the same during the COVID lockdown ? CyrilRamaphosa is good on promises but very poor on delivering the promises

What about the looting currently happening

So please supply a list of those people prosecuted for the covid 19 looting and monies recovered. Let me guess. None. Please dont lie, anc ethos is to enrich Cadres

😂😂😂

You’re either naive, stupid or both

🤣 this man is so funny.

He is a fkn liar…. We all know it

Why would he say that there is/might be looting. The fact that this statement was even made says enough.

He said the same thing about Covid-19 funds. 🤦🏽‍♂️
