SA sure has come along way since Nelson
These are not common criminals and MUST NOT be treated as such …suspended without pay …travel ban …house arrest …thats protocols still not adehered to by President…delay tactics
No escspe noose is already tied
I m very worried about our country 😢
Why lying? He is not suspended but has been given special leave.
A spineless Don. The police must arrest him and everyone mentioned now, screw the deflecting tactic of a commission that will be geared to cover up
He is not suspended don't lie to confuse people.
This minister of police volunteered to go on leave while this enquiry was on the go. Ramaphosa DID NOT suspend him. Ramaphosa has never made any decisions other than what to eat or steal..
Even the president has been found with MILLIONS in U.S currency hidden away in his furniture and then the news quietly stopped talking about it.
The government is rotten from the top to the bottom.
This latest whistle blower will disappear or suddenly be accused of some crime to make him shut up.
Please wake up. He's not suspended but on special leave. (Maybe for 2 years or longer)
The mes we in is not suspended
WHY FAKE NEWS!! PUT ON PAID LEAVE!!!!😢😢
He wasn't suspended.He took leave
😂😂😂 cupcakes with extra icing… Comrades… Pwaka pwala
His been given special leave so he can destroy all evidence
The Democratic Alliance is the only party taking action against this CORRUPT SOUTH AFRICAN GOVERNMENT whos ANC members are HEAVILY involved with CRIMINALS and MAFIA gangs. They use RACISM to divert the publics attention from their corruption.
Rama has many secrets, and many people can destroy his reputation – he is bang to step on toes, because his own shenanigans will be exposed!
Hy moet afgedank word en nie op verlof geplaas word nie. Want nou kry hy nog geld wat nie regverdig is teenoor die arm mense nie.
He's not suspended, he's laying low and hoping we forget. He must be arrested and serve his time in prison. You people protect the corrupt.
He's on leave with gf😅.
Why do we have a black working for Bloomberg who can’t speak. What’s an allugation? Token reporters now? Come one. Speak your own language. Don’t trash mine

These people don't even know what they are talking about. BLOOMBERG is an embarrassment!!
THIS ROTTEN MINISTER SHOULD BE FIRED AND LOCK UP FOR LIFE THE RAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Suspended from. What 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Corrupt ANC / Ramaphosa buying time to cover up corruption with drug cartels again 😂
VOTE A MOTION OF NO CONFIDENCE IN THIS CORRUPT PRESIDENT!! HE MUST VOETSEK!!
The ANC Political party who controls South Africa, supports Iran and Russia, imposed 100+ anti-white laws, has destroyed South Africa and created a Mafia State. All these people do is steal and then investigate themselves.
Send this to Trump… wonder what Musk and Trump have to say about it…! They were spot on about ANC and corruption and racism and BEE, Mafia and protecting criminals!!!
Why suspended why not fired!!!!! Ramaphosa had no problem firing the Dept Min of Trade for not having permission to travel overseas. This guy is implicated in serious fraud and he only get suspended and WITH FULL PAY!!!!
Special leave with full pay to finalize the investigation against him in 6 months time-money paid by the tax payers of this country.
