From the long-winded introduction that the President gave to this parliamentary event's orderly and formal fashion, it is not the vibe our people signed up for.
The point of order is missing, giving Uncle Cyril far too much time for storytelling. Mzansi people do not love the orderly Sona, lol.
Here are just a few of the funny memes showing SA citizen's disappointment:
Seems like the only ones grooving tonight will be the EFF:
Disappointment runs strong through Mzansi
The comments across the various posts reinforced the displeasure of Mzansi citizens. After years of drama, people forgot what the Sona was actually about.
Read some of the comments:
@lio_blaq pointed out:
“Great question. Our president is useless he's now campaigning for ANC instead off addressing issues .”
@Nomfund14267055 can't deal:
“I’m just here shaking my head because wow.”
@Lesmyplace said it straight:
“South Africans love chaos.”
@geraldlets was confused by Cyril's story time, like many other SA citizens:
“Who is this Tintswalo his talking about ”
@SegoJake5323 had jokes:
“You missed it bro, @EFFSouthAfrica does not attend ANC campaigns.”
Political parties expect more action and less talking at SONA
Briefly News reported that political parties hold high expectations for President Cyril Ramaphosa's State of the Nation Address. Parties anticipate Ramaphosa delivering more actionable promises and less rhetoric; some are keen on holding him accountable. Stellenbosch University's professor Amanda Gouws told Briefly News that the nation is weary of a president they perceive as absent.
The African National Congress's spokesperson, Mahlengi Bhengu, stated that the ruling party expects the focus of the SONA to be on service delivery and how the ANC-led government plans to address areas of poor performance.
The IFP's Mkhuleko Hlengwa emphasized that the President must be held to account for the past year and the preceding five years. He remarked that the country has suffered under his leadership, with high unemployment rates and persistent issues with load shedding.
