These actions are intended to cripple the economy, cause social instability and severely weaken β or even dislodge β the democratic state. Using the pretext of a political grievance, those behind these acts have sought to provoke a popular insurrection. https://t.co/ubAVdRB3DT — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
The constitutional order of our country is under threat. Β The current instability and ongoing incitement to violence constitutes a direct contravention of the Constitution and the rule of law. https://t.co/1T3ykLjBZ7 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
The human toll will take much longer to repair. Β It is clear now that the events of the past week were nothing less than a deliberate, coordinated and well-planned attack on our democracy. https://t.co/cRle29rFtC — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
The streets and buildings I saw bear the scars of looting and mayhem. Β But what is most devastating is the toll that these events have taken on peopleβs lives, livelihoods and sense of security. https://t.co/cRle29rFtC — PolitiTweet.org

The looters ransacked and destroyed the shopping centre over a period of 48 hours. They wanted to burn the substation but they failed as centre management responded quickly and put out the fires. https://t.co/PBf3rdSXZs — PolitiTweet.org

Hope Khumalo is the General Manager of Umlazi Mega City - she told me that looters destroyed everything in the centre, all the stores were affected, including the blood bank. https://t.co/HjNzavopJX — PolitiTweet.org

Thembile Qunta is Head of Manufacturing at Cipla, an HIV treatment manufacturing facility in KZN, accounting for some 500 jobs. The impact of the attack on their plant will be huge for people living with HIV as the supply of such medicines is now interrupted. #ProtectSouthAfrica https://t.co/5pHDZrhDzf — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Dr Sibongiseni Dhlomo who is leading the cleanup operation introduced me to the centre management & shareholders of Umlazi Mega City who took me on a guided tour to assess the damage. The complex was hit hard on Sunday when thousands of people looted and damaged their stores. https://t.co/sxkuzaErEF — PolitiTweet.org

Cipla are reaching out to plants in India and other countries, working with SAHPRA, to source #HIV medicines.

I am pleased that provincial officials, led by Premier Sihle Zikalala, MECs and other leaders, were first on the ground to assess the impact of the public violence and deal with the situation. Our soldiers and our police were also on the ground to deal with a difficult situation. https://t.co/dm6bW5ahfY — PolitiTweet.org

Together, we will defeat those who seek to destabilise our country, who seek to reverse the gains we have made. We will stand as one people, united against violence, unanimous in our commitment to peace and to the rule of law. This is what we must do. Β I thank you. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We are faced, as we have been faced many times before, with a moment of great challenge and great promise. Β Let us choose the path of peace and renewal. Β Let us stand firm and emerge stronger. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We will reject violence and chaos, so that can move forward. Β We are building up, not shutting down. Β We will not be deterred, as South Africans, from the task ahead of us. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We have set our country on a path of progress and recovery. We cannot allow a few people among us to threaten this collective effort or stop us on our path to economic reconstruction. Β We will protect our constitutional democracy, so that we can consolidate our gains. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We are emerging now from a long period of uncertainty and stagnation. We have witnessed the effects of corruption and the erosion of the state, the terrible consequences of the abuse of power and neglect of duty. Β We have begun a process of healing, reconstruction and renewal. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We cannot expect a lasting and durable peace if we do not create jobs and build a more just and equitable society in which all South Africans can participate freely and equally. Β We must therefore commit ourselves not only to peace, but to greater economic opportunity for all. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
This moment has thrown into stark relief what we already knew: that the level of unemployment, poverty and inequality in our society is unsustainable. — PolitiTweet.org

There is a danger that our vaccination programme will be disrupted in some areas just as we need to significantly expand its reach. Β We cannot allow this to happen. Β We will not allow this to happen. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
There is a danger that these events will lead to an even greater surge in infections, putting many more lives at risk and placing a greater burden on our health facilities and personnel. — PolitiTweet.org

Fellow South Africans, Β This violence and destruction takes place in the midst of a devastating pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
I wish to thank communities who have taken time to engage each other to stop incidents of looting, all operational members and commanders of the SAPS and all agencies for responses to acts of violence & provocation, which has helped to avert bloodshed & limit the loss of lives. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Rather, we should join those individuals and communities who are working with the police to prevent looting, and those members of the public who have provided tip-offs and information about instances of criminality. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
We should refrain from posting and circulating inflammatory messages on social media, and from spreading rumours or false reports that may create further panic among our people. Β No-one should take the law into their own hands. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa πΏπ¦ @CyrilRamaphosa
Whether we are leaders of political parties, taxi associations, business organisations or unions, we need to do everything in our means to calm the situation confronting our country right now. — PolitiTweet.org
