Minister of Energy in South Africa, Gwede Mantashe refused to sign the $1 billion agreement with the Netherlands and Denmark because it was drafted without his input. Gwede: refused to meet President Cyril Ramaphosa with European leaders for the signing of. Gwede is 100% right here, how do you sign an agreement that you know nothing about? Just when I was about to ask, ‘kanti yintoni i agreement?’ Personally, I would not sign something I don’t know, worse when aren’t in agreement with.ย
Someone said on Twitter that, Why would Cyril Ramaphosa put Gwede Mantashe in a position where he needs to sign a MOU he hasn’t read? If Gwede hasn’t read the MOU does it mean even the cabinet doesn’t know of the details of this MOU? If it’s TRUE, it’s Excellent Gwede Mantashe must understand before signing, at some point, leaders must be accountable for what they sign. Every professional does that.ย
Someone said on Twitter that, Gwete Mantashe is right , he is a minister not Ramaphosa teaboy . How can you sign an agreement and a deal that you don’t know about it? I will do the same too. Ramaphosa must sign it alone. That’s definitely leadership from Gwede. He can’t make an endorsement without consultation.ย
Someone said on Twitter that, Very concerning. Tell me, has your organization done or said anything about Mswati’s gluttonous usage of eSwatini’a budget to support his multitudes of wives and kids while the nation starves or uphaphela SA politics, Simply because you don’t have evidence that something doesn’t exist does not mean that you have evidence that something doesn’t exist. There are known known and there’s also unknown unknowns, things that we know we don’t know and also things we don’t know that we don’t know”ย
We need this type of leadership, Ramaphosa keeps on dragging us into so much debt that benefits private companies, but we will be paying heavily on interests on the future thus compromising on local service delivery. There’s more to this than what we are told. I don’t think he didn’t sign bcoz he was not given a chance to read it, not to mention that he didn’t sign for the interest of the country. There’s a lot than what meets the eye. With all his recent political n moral flaws, Gwede is forgiven for refusing to selloff SAs energy sovereignty to Nations such as the Netherlands that never apologized for the atrocities of Van Riebeck, someone had to stand up against Cyril, he has gone completely Nats. Well, then Ramaphosa’s days as president are numbered. Without Mantashe, he never would’ve been president. He’s the power behind the throne.
