Ramaphosa’s apparent indifference towards unrest is disappointing
12 July 2021
The FF Plus will fully support any and all attempts at halting the current wave of anarchy and violence sweeping across the country. In the party's view, though, it is a big problem that President Cyril Ramaphosa is constantly taking reactive instead of proactive action.
He stated that the country's various police intelligence structures and the defence force will cooperate on national level. It is, however, too little too late.
These services have already failed the people, despite all the warning signs that have been evident since last week Wednesday and that have foreboded what is currently unfolding in the country.
Another problem is the fact that the last time the President engaged with other political leaders to discuss the serious challenges associated with the Covid-19 pandemic was last year in May. Why wait more than a year before doing it again?
