Ramaphosa RESIGN? Malema ERUPTS! Constitutional Court HUMILIATES Ramaphosa & Parliament

Added: 2026-05-09

[00:00:00]Guys, the president has resigned and you all know that president wrote a letter.

[00:00:10]The people who work with him, the people who typed his speech, told me is done, chief. We are done. We just waiting for the time to call a press conference. It's done.

[00:00:24]Until affection went to persuade him the same day not to resign. His conscience has concluded that he doesn't have what it takes to be a president.

[00:00:40]The body might be there. The guy is gone. He wrote ser if we're to conduct the raid now in his offices or homes.

[00:00:50]We're going to find a resignation late.

[00:00:53]>> South Africa is shaking again. The nation once celebrated as the symbol of African democracy is now facing another political storm. And this time the country's highest court has entered the battlefield. The constitutional court of South Africa has ruled that parliament acted unlawfully when it blocked impeachment proceedings linked to the explosive Falafala scandal surrounding President Siriel Ramaposa. And now the calls are growing louder. resign not from ordinary critics alone but from one of the most powerful opposition voices in Africa today Julius Malemma and stop bringing police must do their job and stop bringing many baggies here I saw the provinial commissioner Park building.

[00:02:09]We have a criminal. There is no criminal that must be treated with respect because that criminal has undermined the constitution of the Republic of South Africa today. For sure all of you can see why they want me in prison. Because if I'm in prison, all of this will not be possible. They want to silence me. They want to silence you by silencing me so that you never get to know the truth. At least I got the truth before I went to jail. At least I opened the eyes of South Africans before I went to jail.

[00:02:51]All of this worked against their plan because we as the EFF have got a giraffe view. We can see how the future looks like. now is for Rama Porsa to use his conscience and resign as the president of South Africa and go and face the impeachment. We can't have a president that is doing the work of president and doing the work of impeachment. He must concentrate on one. He can't concentrate on the president. He has to concentrate on impeachment. This goes again to the doorstep of the ANC. They must choose South Africa or they must choose Rama.

[00:03:35]The conal court was very clear. The primaagi exist. Therefore, it must go to the impeachment.

[00:03:44]Let's see that story of theirs of step aside. Whether that step aside has got eyes or not because facing impeachment is equal to standing in a box in a court of law and being charged because you are only charged when there is primaagi. Now the panel said there is primaagi meaning he is charged in parliament. He has to face the impeachment process. Let's see if the step aside process only applies to certain individuals and doesn't apply to Ramaposa. We know that it took long for us to arrive here. The chief justice has apologized. We accept her apology and we accept a wonderful judgment of this conal court. So fighters, there are lot of fighters who are still coming. We are not going home. We are going to dance here, celebrate here and march all over Johannesburg to celebrate the victory of the EFF, the victory of the people of South Africa.

[00:04:55]>> The leader of the economic freedom fighters says Ramaposa must step down immediately. But this story is bigger than one man, much bigger than one scandal because today Africa is asking dangerous questions. What happened to South Africa? How did the nation of Nelson Mandela become trapped in endless corruption scandals, political infighting, unemployment, inequality, and division? And most importantly, can African democracy survive if leaders are protected instead of being held accountable? Tonight we go deep into the Falafala scandal, the constitutional court ruling, Malayma's explosive reaction, and why millions of Africans are now watching South Africa with fear, anger, and disappointment. This is not just South Africa's story. This is Africa's warning. There was a time when South Africa inspired the world. After apartheid ended, the country became a symbol of hope. Many Africans believed South Africa would lead the continent into a new era. It had the industries, the infrastructure, the economy, the institutions. People looked at South Africa and saw the future of Africa. But somewhere along the way, the dream started collapsing. Corruption scandals multiplied. Unemployment exploded. Black South Africans remained economically trapped. Violence increased. And political trust began disappearing.

[00:06:24]Today, millions of young South Africans are angry, not because they hate their country, but because they feel betrayed.

[00:06:31]They were promised freedom, but many still live in poverty. They were promised opportunity, but many still struggle to survive. And now another scandal has reopened old wounds. The Falafala scandal, a scandal involving hidden foreign currency, theft, secrecy, and accusations of abuse of power. And suddenly the president who once presented himself as a clean reformer is under fire again. For those outside South Africa, here is what shocked the nation. Back in 2022, allegations emerged that a large amount of foreign currency, reportedly hundreds of thousands of dollars, was stolen from President Ramaposa's Falafala farm. But the biggest shock was not just the theft. It was the questions that followed. Why was so much cash allegedly hidden at the farm? Why was the matter allegedly not reported normally through official channels? Were state resources used improperly? Was there an attempt to hide information from the public? These questions exploded across South Africa.

[00:07:36]Opposition parties demanded answers.

[00:07:38]Citizens demanded transparency. And the scandal became one of the biggest political crises of Ramaposa's presidency. At one point, many believed his presidency could collapse completely. But then Parliament stepped in. Instead of allowing impeachment proceedings to move forward, Parliament voted against it. And critics immediately accuse the ruling party of protecting its own leader. That moment changed everything because millions of Africans began asking if leaders cannot be investigated properly, then what happens to democracy? Now the constitutional court has spoken and its ruling sent shock waves across South Africa. The court ruled that parliament acted unlawfully in the way it handled the impeachment process linked to Falafala. That ruling is massive because this is not just about Ramoposa anymore.

[00:08:29]It is about institutions. It is about accountability. It is about whether powerful leaders can be shielded from scrutiny. And across Africa, many people are paying attention because this pattern is familiar. When ordinary citizens are accused, the law moves fast. But when powerful politicians are accused, systems suddenly become slow.

[00:08:51]Processes become complicated.

[00:08:53]Investigations disappear and trust in democracy starts dying. This is why the ruling matters so much. It sends a message that institutions must follow the constitution, not political loyalty.

[00:09:05]And suddenly opposition leaders saw an opportunity, especially Julius Malemma.

[00:09:10]Love him or hate him, Julius Malma understands political warfare. The EFF leader wasted no time after the ruling.

[00:09:18]He renewed calls for Ramaposa to resign immediately and once again, South African politics exploded. Mimma argues that the country cannot claim to defend democracy while protecting leaders from accountability. His supporters believe he is exposing hypocrisy within the system. His critics accuse him of political opportunism. But one thing is certain, he knows how to capture public frustration, especially among young Africans who feel abandoned by the political establishment. And this is where the story becomes deeper than party politics. Because many African youths are no longer emotionally attached to old liberation parties. They are asking harder questions. questions about jobs, questions about corruption, questions about inequality, questions about land, questions about dignity. And leaders across Africa should pay attention because today's African youth are no longer silent. The real danger for South Africa is not just one scandal. It is the growing feeling that the system itself is failing ordinary people. South Africa remains one of the most unequal societies on Earth.

[00:10:25]Millions struggle daily. Young graduates cannot find jobs. Businesses suffer under power crisis. Crime terrifies communities. And political trust keeps collapsing. Meanwhile, politicians continue fighting each other publicly while citizens lose hope. That is why every scandal now feels bigger because people are emotionally exhausted. And when citizens stop believing in institutions, dangerous things begin happening. Division grows. Extremism rises. Anger replaces hope and Africa has seen this movie before. The tragedy is that South Africa still has enormous potential, huge potential, industrial power, natural resources, brilliant minds, strong institutions compared to many countries. But institutions alone are not enough. Leadership matters, integrity matters, accountability matters, and above all the people must feel respected. This moment is bigger than South Africa. It is a lesson for the entire continent. Africa cannot build a great future if accountability only exists for the poor. Africa cannot rise if institutions become tools for political protection. And Africa cannot unite while corruption destroys public trust. But there is also hope inside this crisis because the constitutional court ruling proves something important.

[00:11:47]Institutions can still fight back. The Constitution can still matter and citizens still have power when they refuse silence. This is the Africa young people want. An Africa where no leader is above the law. An Africa where democracy is not just speeches during elections. An Africa where leadership means service, not protection from accountability. And perhaps this is the real battle now unfolding across the continent. Not just a battle for power, but a battle for the soul of African leadership itself. South Africa stands at a crossroads. The country that once inspired the world must now decide what kind of democracy it wants to become.

[00:12:28]Will leaders be protected or will institutions defend the people? Will politics remain a game for elites? Or will accountability finally become real?

[00:12:38]The Falafala scandal is not just about money. It is about trust. And once trust disappears, even the strongest nations begin to crack. But Africa still has time. Time to rebuild, time to reform, time to awaken. Because the future of this continent cannot be built on fear, corruption, and political protection. It must be built on truth, on courage, on accountability, and on leaders who remember that power belongs to the people. Africa is watching South Africa and history is watching Africa. If you believe Africa deserves accountable leadership, if you believe the youth deserve a better future, if you believe African democracy must be protected, then share this video, subscribe and join the movement to make Africa great.

[00:13:27]>> See any need to speak to the president?

[00:13:30]We are here to serve the interest of the country, not the interest of the president. So I've not spoken to him but if I were to speak to him I will advise him to resign and go and concentrate on this matter. He should be ashamed that the it took the constitutional court to say you cannot just push away a panel a report that says there is primmaaki evidence of wrongdoing and therefore parliament must first refer the matter to the impeachment.

[00:14:02]Once the impeachment process has concluded, even if it's negative on the president, let's say it says the president must be removed. That's where the voting comes in.

[00:14:11]>> Historically, he's been an individual who's always when it's hot under the collar, who's chosen to walk away. When he was not made SG, when he was not made president, he walked away. When this report was tabled, he contemplated resigning. Guantan had to mobilize ANC members for him not to resign to contemplate him thinking of resigning in this moment in time. This is an opportune moment for him not to listen to any individual. He must listen to what his conscience says and therefore take a decision. They were saying he must not resign because they were concentrating on their functional interest and therefore the matters are now beyond uh the issue of factions. You have to say look it looks like this matter is too serious. It first went to the former chief justice who was heading the panel. It now come back again to the conal court. They not say it did anything wrong but they said there is a primma faky. Can you please subject this to some process to transparency so that the people of South Africa can be exposed to the facts? You can take your vote after if you want to take your vote but let the people know what's happening so that they make an informed decision when the next election comes as to whether they still want to proceed with that criminal or not. But let the matters be open and transparent.

[00:15:27]>> You're going to be in the impeachment committee open.

[00:15:29]>> I'm going to the impeachment committee.

[00:15:30]You know that.

[00:15:32]>> CA. Parliamentarians are lawmakers and one would have thought that they would have had a proper understanding when they decided to vote against that particular report. What should we make of this wherein they are now being corrected by the court on a law or a rule that they would have put in place?

[00:15:50]>> Well, when you've got clowns in the majority, what do you do? the clowns that call themselves the majority. That's what happens. You have a situation where people refuse to think, people refuse to reason. I mean, the same occurred when we're debating Fed. H they wanted to take a vote because that's what they're used to. And when they were being taken through the law, they refused to listen to the law.

[00:16:15]They refused to interpret what the law says. And the court had to remind them again this what the law says on matters of so people use their majority to become unreasonable and that's why we are saying and that's what we've been saying throughout even under president Zuma we must every decision must meet the rationality test and we told them this is not how do we say the panel says with with a former chief justice there is primma of wrongdoing here and then you say we can use majority to suppress corruption.

[00:16:54]They must be ashamed of themselves and we want to say Zuma wherever she is she must be proud of herself because she acted alone against her own comrades because her conscience was very clear. She was using the conscience as guided by the then uh chief justice that parliamentarians must be guided by their conscience and not by the party line.

[00:17:21][music] Thank you Africa.

[00:17:29][music] You make Africa.
