Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa pointed out today in the National Assembly that Jacob Zuma has played a major role in boosting infrastructure development in South Africa.

When asked if he believed President Zuma had the qualities of a selfless and accountable leader to steer South Africa along a developmental path, Ramaphosa responded:

“Well as you might well know, President Zuma has been honoured by the continent to chair the infrastructure development trajectory of the continent. This the continent did – out of an informed realisation of how South Africa – as led by President Zuma – has been able to change the infrastructure trajectory of our country and move it forward; and you look at the record that has been achieved… in recent years… it is second to none!

“And I think let us give due regard and respect where it is due… I think you’d better listen…

“You may want to condemn President Zuma for a whole number of things; but I think we should also focus on what our country has achieved.

“It has achieved a phenomenal amount of progress and African leaders recognise this… and that is why they appointed President Zuma to be the – listen to this – The Champion of Infrastructure Development on the continent! I think recognise that!”
