Economic Freedom Fighters have come out to blast President Cyril Ramaphosa over what it feels is a botched effort at leading SA through the Covid-19 crisis.
In a statement issued by the party, the EFF insisted that there has been a lack of decisive leadership during the pandemic.
“Leading the incompetence has been one Cyril Ramaphosa, who is hell-bent on being given an exhibition of loss of life and uncontrollable infections before making decisions that will protect the lives of people.”
The EFF says that when the first infection was announced, it had called for action but Ramaphosa “did not heed this call and delayed”. Instead of clamping down at the onset of the pandemic, Ramaphosa “ignored” the EFF’s advice to enforce mandatory quarantining.
The Red Berets accused Ramaphosa of fumbling over the issue of alcohol sales, ignoring advice from the likes of the World Health Organization and the SA Democratic Teachers Union on schooling and placing profits above human life.
“Ramaphosa today opportunistically attempts to blame South Africans for the spread of the virus and forgets how he has failed to provide consistent leadership, which is guided and has foresight. This is a sign that he has completely abdicated his responsibilities as a leader of society and assumed the position of an absent father,” EFF said.
