'We will rid ourselves of Cyril Ramaphosa'

Billionaire businessman Rob Hersov and ANC activist Carl Niehaus have found something they agree on — that President Cyril Ramaphosa needs to resign. But that is about all they agree on.

In an online video that has emerged this week, Hersov described Ramaphosa as a “useless, spineless failure” who should resign. He apologised for his family funding “such a disgrace to become the president of our country”.

Hersov described Ramaphosa's cabinet as being full of “corrupt, clown criminals” with “all of them incompetent” that has riled many on social media.

“I despise this arrogant piece of white trash! It is exactly because of people like Rob Hersov that we are in the mess that we are. By his own acknowledgement, his family and himself gave us the likes of Ramaphosa and his fellow sell-outs. These arrogant, evil, WMC manipulators funded Cyril and co., and manipulated and 'wormed' them into the ANC,” Niehaus said.

Niehaus, who signed his middle name as “Mpangazitha” (loosely translatable to “one who fights enemies”), described Hersov as an “arrogant, self-entitled white alpha male, whose family became stinking rich on the backs of the exploitation, blood, sweat and tears of African labour”.

“Yes, Ramaphosa deserves his comeuppance. He must voetsek, but so must Rob Hersov, and all these self-serving arrogant white b******s like him.

“Now that the s*%t is hitting the proverbial fan belt, and their puppets are failing and destroying our beloved liberation movement, and our country, Hersov wants to say “voetsek ANC”! Aikona, I am not going to take this bloody c**p from him!

Niehaus said his language is “deliberately intemperate, and I do not apologise for that” and that Hersov and “people like him always wanted to destroy the ANC and the liberation ideals that we stand for”.

“They have created and used Ramaphosa, and now that he no longer serves even their selfish evil, exploitative, purposes they throw him into the rubbish bin of history like the pathetic used condom that he is,” ranted Niehaus.

While he agreed with Hersov on the urgency of getting rid of Ramaphosa, Niehaus felt the ANC faction he was aligned to was capable of the job.

“We will rid ourselves of Cyril Ramaphosa, and his evil cohorts, and we will save our beloved ANC,” said Niehaus.
