Ramaphosa Out Of Touch With Realities Faced By Millions: Mashaba

ActionSA leader Herman Mashaba has poured cold water on President Cyril Ramaphosas State of the Nation Address SONA.

Mashaba says Ramaphosa is out of touch with the realities faced by millions of South Africans.

Ramaphosa delivered his State of the Nation Address on Thursday evening at the Cape Town City Hall.

He says Ramaphosa should have sought advices before making unrealistic promises.

For South Africa to actually turn the tide of high unemployment, we need a minimum of 5 economic growth. Anything under 5, you are not going to reverse the current high unemployment rate. A minimum of 5 doesnt happen just because you go to church, it happens after identifying ways of creating employment, explains Mashaba.
