President Cyril Ramaphosa says he “will not be bullied” by his critics

In regards to the Farmgate scandal, President Cyril Ramaphosa has stated that he “will not be bullied” by his critics.

At his farmhouse in Limpopo, the ANC leader was discovered to have “stashed” $4 million in cash.

He also failed to report the theft of this money in 2020.

How much is too much? Cyril criticizes attempts at bullying

Ramaphosa claims to have an upcoming meeting with the ANC Integrity Commission, but picking the right time is proving challenging.

However, Cyril reaffirmed his dedication to “being held accountable.”

The divisive politician declared in a defiant and confident tone that he would not be stopped from carrying out his duties as president and promised to revive the economy “come what may.”

Ramaphosa appears to believe that some of the criticism directed at him is bullying, though.

“I’m willing to be held accountable and will cooperate fully with any investigation. A date for the ANC Integrity Commission is currently being finalized.

However, I won’t let these accusations stop me from doing what needs to be done to revive our economy.

I won’t be deterred from my work by this, and I won’t allow myself to be intimidated or bullied into submission.

We are currently engaged in a battle for the ANC’s very existence.

We are also engaged in the fight to preserve our democracy, so we won’t give up.

Ramaphosa, Cyril

Whether Ramaphosa was harassed or not, sympathy is still in scant supply.

Ramaphosa’s fans praised him for defending himself. Unfortunately, many of his rivals are still underwhelmed.

Two prominent members of the DA have criticized the president for what they perceive to be an attempt to change the context.

The shadow minister for public works, Leon Schreiber, has charged Cyril with attempting to connect “accountability with bullying.”

Meanwhile, Ramaphosa has been charged with “activating victim mode,” according to Shadow Trade Minister Dean Macpherson.

Hey there, Mr. President, tough crowd?
