Nhlamulo Ndhlela, spokesperson for the uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MKP), has criticized President Cyril Ramaphosa's commitment to fighting corruption, urging the government to first address the Phala-Phala farm theft scandal. Ndhlela labeled Ramaphosa's State of the Nation Address (SONA) as inadequate and lacking a plan, citing South Africa's economic stagnation as evidence. He contrasted Ramaphosa's claims with the MKP's view of a 'failed state'.
uMkhonto weSizwe Party spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndhlela has rejected President Cyril Ramaphosa’s assertion that the government is committed to a corruption-free nation.
He goes further, describing the President’s address as nothing more than a reflection of a “failed state”. The President says they are establishing a world-class digital forensics lab that aims to support the investigation of complex corruption and financial crime.
