When it comes to agitating for political change and human rights, it has been Africa’s youth that has been giving a voice to the disaffected and marginalised through music, popular culture, art, cinema and protest. https://t.co/TzItVlsR96 — PolitiTweet.org

Across Africa, young people are becoming entrepreneurs in waste recycling, mobile money, aquaculture, IT and e-learning. Many of these businesses are in direct response to community needs and circumstances. https://t.co/TzItVlsR96 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
You are here because as young people you demand to be part of decision-making and shaping a future that is yours. We see the Nelson Mandela Youth Dialogue as a collective that brings together the builders of a new Africa. https://t.co/TzItVlsR96 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
As we gather here, we dare declare that our identity is unambiguously African. We dare say that our being is one with Africa, that we are loyal disciples and advocates for Africa’s development. https://t.co/TzItVlsR96 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
What I have always found deeply moving is the great regard in which Nelson Mandela is held across Africa. There are streets named after him, images of him, and lectures and talks about him and in his memory. https://t.co/TzItVlsR96 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
There is so much that young people across the continent can learn from each other’s experiences. They can draw on each other’s strengths and capabilities and encourage each other as they take up the mantle of leadership. https://t.co/TzItVlsR96 — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
These included the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of African universities in knowledge production, economic integration, sustainable development, constitutionalism, human rights and fundamental freedoms. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
After delivering a lecture at the Cheikh Anta Diop University, the students and I had a wide-ranging discussion on various topics. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The idea of bringing the youth of the continent together to start important conversations about leadership, development and political change first came to me during a visit to the Republic of Senegal in December 2021. https://t.co/TzItVltoYE — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The conceptualisation of this Youth Dialogue was inspired by Nelson Mandela’s cherished dream to see the young people of Africa come together, to unite and to collaborate to solve our many challenges. https://t.co/TzItVlsR96 — PolitiTweet.org

Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
We are also empowered to “[take] legislative and other measures to achieve land, water and related reform to redress the results of past discrimination”. We are committed to respecting our Constitution and fulfilling its promises. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The state is enjoined in our Constitution to “take reasonable legislative and other measures, within its available resources, to foster conditions which enable citizens to gain access to land on an equitable basis”. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
This principle is entrenched in our Constitution, where section 25 speaks of the “nation’s commitment to land reform, and to reforms to bring about equitable access to all South Africa’s natural resources”. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Addressing this historical injustice is critical to realising the promise of our Constitutional dispensation. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Deprivation of land was central to the disenfranchisement and dispossession of the majority of South Africans. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
I cannot make such a determination until Parliament has finalised its work and the Bill is on my desk for assent. As I have previously said to this House, the Expropriation Bill is critical to addressing a hunger that people have for land. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The Constitution only provides for a role for the Constitutional Court if I am not satisfied with the constitutionality of a Bill after this House has reconsidered it. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
If I have reservations about the constitutionality of a Bill once I receive it – and only once I receive it – am I constitutionally obliged to send it back to this House first. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Honourable Members, The Expropriation Bill is currently in the National Council of Provinces. My constitutional obligation, in terms of section 79 of the Constitution, is to satisfy myself of the constitutionality of a Bill before I assent to it. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
This work – which will review the role of all departments, including the Department of Public Enterprises – will inform the configuration of government going into the next administration. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
As I said in the State of the Nation Address, the Presidency and National Treasury will work together to rationalise government departments, entities and programmes over the next three years. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
As part of this work, the Council will make recommendations on which SOCs could be placed in the proposed holding company. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The Presidential SOE Council is in the midst of an in-depth exercise to establish the strategic and developmental role of each SOE, their financial position and operational capabilities. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
A state-owned holding company would enable streamlined governance processes, transparent financial systems, economies of scale in procurement, shared transactional services and adequate funding to SOEs to fulfil their respective mandates. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
A holding company will instil effective governance and enhance the efficiency of SOCs to achieve the Government’s developmental objectives, ensure increased transparency and accountability and promote the commercial sustainability of SOCs. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
This will delineate the functions of policymaking and regulation from the shareholding and operations of those SOCs. Policy-making and regulation will reside in the relevant departments. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
Among the recommendations of the Presidential SOE Council is the adoption of a centralised shareholder model for the management of the SOEs and that a state-owned holding company be established to house strategic SOCs and to exercise coordinated shareholder oversight. — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
The reconfiguration process is supported by the work of the Presidential SOE Council, which, among other things, has made proposals to strengthen the framework governing SOEs and determining an appropriate Shareholder Ownership Model. https://t.co/Cg36yDvHqg — PolitiTweet.org
Cyril Ramaphosa 🇿🇦 @CyrilRamaphosa
This process of reconfiguration takes the overall approach that SOEs that operate in specific sectors of the economy should be placed under the relevant government departments. — PolitiTweet.org
