De Beer: “Defeated” Cyril’s “disaster SONA & the comeback of his “worst nemesis” Zuma

Loading player...
A “defeated” President Cyril Ramaphosa delivered a “disaster” State of the Nation Address (SONA)  as his “worst nemesis” former President Jacob Zuma is staging a spectacular comeback. Neil De Beer, the president of the United Independent Movement (UIM), a party in the Multi-Party Charter (MPC), dissects the SONA for BizNews. He also lambasts the “outgoing” President for lying about corruption and loadshedding, and labels him a “very sad indiviual” and a “coward” who is living in “La La Cuckoo Land”. De Beer warns that Ramaphosa will have to call the national election earlier rather than later “because he cannot keep the country together” - and “every day he doesn't call the date, MK is growing…” Moreover, he thinks Ramaphosa - who once called the Multi-Party Charter “a nothing, a null on a contract - has just realised that 50 plus 1 is possible” for the MPC. - Chris Steyn
