The FW De Klerk Foundation says President Cyril Ramaphosa has done a reasonable job of running the country for the last nine months, with many of the problems he had to deal with being inherited from his predecessor former President Jacob Zuma.

The Foundation gave a review Ramaphosa’s performance nine months after he was sworn in as president.

It says Ramaphosa had made a long list of commitments, which included holding a jobs summit, an investment conference and the acceleration of infrastructure projects.

The Foundation, Dr Theuns Elof says Ramaphosa’s performance is satisfactory.

“The president should get a pass rate for the first nine months, but tongue in cheek we say that as some of us have often read in our school reports, ‘Cyril has done ok, but he can do much better.”

However, the foundation adds that while there was little evidence of the acceleration of infrastructure projects in terms of water, health and maintenance of roads, they are also concerned about land expropriation without compensation and the amendment of the constitution.

“We also think that many thousands, possibly hundreds of thousands of the written submissions have not even been read or even been opened by the committee and we think that opens the whole process to legal review later on.”

Elof says they want Ramaphosa to be “squeaky clean and fight corruption.
