Hlaudi Motsoeneng Blasts President Ramaphosa, Calls Him a Failed Politician
Former SABC COO and leader of the African Content Movement (ACM), Hlaudi Motsoeneng, has blasted President Cyril Ramaphosa, calling him a failed politician.
Hlaudi Motsoeneng, known for his controversial political past, expressed how unhappy he was with Ramaphosa’s leadership and called for the intervention of former Presidents Thabo Mbeki and Kgalema Motlanthe to revive the ANC.
Hlaudi Motsoeneng had some a lot to say about Ramaphosa.
Motsoeneng’s criticism comes in response to President Ramaphosa’s recent statement suggesting that social grants would be withdrawn if the ANC lost power.
Motsoeneng called the president’s remarks as evidence of his lack of political wisedom, coming to the conclusion that Ramaphosa is unfit for leadership.
Hlaudi Motsoeneng’s idea for ANC revival
Advocating for a leadership change within the ANC, Motsoeneng proposed that former Presidents Thabo Mbeki and Kgalema Motlanthe should take charge of reviving the ANC.
He expressed unhappiness with Ramaphosa’s leadership, suggesting that the president would be better suited as a historian than a politician.
“Ramaphosa is not a politician but a historian who lacks leadership.”
“How can you tell people about the history of the ANC while knowing that the citizens of this country need jobs and stability?”
“Ramaphosa is not fit for a purpose. He must write books and retire from politics. He is clueless when it comes to leadership,” said Motsoeneng.
He also spoke about the ANC’s enthusiasm for countless imbizos that were “useless and worthless”.
“These imbizos are talk shops with no substance or way forward.”
“The ANC, in its manifestos, made promises to the people. But then, it went back to the masses again with its imbizos to listen to the problems of the citizens.”
“This party is spitting in our faces. Since the elections are coming, you will see the party coming up with new projects spearheaded by the government.
“But after the elections, those ventures will be gone,” he said.
Hlaudi Motsoeneng has his doubts about the current president of South Africa.
He said that his wish was to see the ANC still exist in the country.
“I have my own party that will be contesting the Free State. But I don’t want to see the ANC getting destroyed by Ramaphosa and his cabal.”
“Ramaphosa must step aside and allow Mbeki and Motlanthe to take charge before it is too late.”
“Ramaphosa is a failed leader, and he is busy insulting small political parties while giving people blankets and food parcels.”
“Motsoeneng said Ramaphosa was “forever telling people about how the ANC’s past leaders had worked hard to liberate the country.”
Hlaudi Motsoeneng believes he knows how the ANC can go back to being a party for the people.
He forgets that the citizens cannot eat or change their lives through being told about history. “Ramaphosa is a good historian who can tell us about the history of the country and the ANC, nothing else.
“He just needs to step aside and allow the elders to steer the party’s ship in the right direction,” he said.
