Loss of Trust in President Ramaphosa
South Africans have lost trust in President Cyril Ramaphosa after he was caught lying about not knowing his alleged tycoon nephew, Hangwani Maumela, in 2022.
In 2022, President Ramaphosa denied knowing Hangwani Maumela, but was later spotted hugging the businessman outside his mansion, which was raided by the SIU in connection with the looted R2 billion Tembisa Hospital fund.
The video of the incident circulated on social media, revealing a pattern in Ramaphosa's behavior, where he claims not to know about a scandal and then moves on from the issue.
Many South Africans saw this as a sign of dishonesty and lost trust in the president.
This incident has led to a loss of faith in President Ramaphosa's leadership among the citizens of Mzansi.
