This is crystal clear that Safricans or Africans rather we are gifted and have multiple talents to run the Affairs of our country on our own, only if we can discipline ourselves from stealing and all manner of shenanigans, i always have a vehement argument with Africans who think that white people are wiser than Africans, the only thing that they outsmart us with, is that they were more privelleged for the longest of time while we on the other hand were suppressed and opressed in all angles and Avenues, so in other words we are brain damaged till today and it'll take more than a century to get the seriously downtrodden back on our feet as fully fledged human beings, the atrocities done to us Safricans is a massive one.
Learned something today. Let the people you lead shine, praise them,give them the responsibility to own the objectives and the goals of the institution you lead. Wow
Ramokgopa family are intellectuals,I once worked with two of them being orthopedic surgeon s , beautiful work they did , patients healing nicely.Bigup to them.
The stories that are being told on this channel are remarkable 👌, you taking us into these politicians , academics, and business leaders lounges. Their stories also give an ordinary child from Soweto, Galeshewe, Umlazi, etc. It's possible to contribute to this incredible country. Mainstream media always paints these Black leaders in a bad light. We are not saying they are perfect, but there's always a good story to tell in every individual. Thank you Doc, this space (SMWX) articulates that Black people can also build this country. #SMWX #ayeye
Listening to Dr Kgosientsho is always a pleasure! What a smart, jolly guy who knows what he is doing. If it were up to me he’d be the next president of the ANC. Ayeye!
These are the kind of leaders that the youth need to listen to. The type of leaders that will drive the country to greater heights. I pray that he lives long and achieves all the aspirations he has for our beloved country.
I totally appreciate this interview with Dr. Ramokgopa. This interview is so inspiring and brings new hope to the leadership of the future. The Dr. is composed and intelligent in articulating his points very clear. He accepts the failures, while he appreciates the achievements. Much appreciated; and again totally insightful.
Dr Sizwe, I noticed that you offer a unique platform for politicians to share personal biographical insights. Especially ANC officials have deep personal stories due to their involvement in the resistance against apartheid and underground work, which is not often well understood and appreciated, but rather overlooked and ignored, by the more established media outlets!
What a humble and an intelligent leader. Well educated and knowledgeable minister. Knowledge sharing is outstanding. I can listen to the minister the whole day. Calmness surpasses them all. Well done Sizwe
This was a very insightful interview of an individual who was mandated to resolve a national crisis and how he went about working with others to resolve this, it’s a matter that needs to be applauded. There is a lot of learning from a leadership point of view and how Dr Mpofu-Welsh handled the interview is outstanding❤.
🥴For a moment, I was almost convinced to vote for the ANC again. But I quickly came back to my senses😂. The minister is doing a good job.I hope they continue to give him the support he needs.
Minister Ramokgopa is a breath of fresh air as a politician, you can tell just watching this interview that he has no ulterior motives just a hardworking and patriotic South African who wants the best for our people❤️.
What I love about Sizwe is that he is humanizing the people he brings onto the platform, he is not there for gotcha moments and you get to know the person beyond the office. Sputla is the most honest ANC member in the country, as much as he highlights the wins he still has the maturity to know that there are things that muddy the ANC waters, and that is amazing to behold.
Thank you Doctor, can't overstate how much we appreciate your content. As a young man of 21 years it's crucial in shaping my understanding of where we are and need to go as a country and I'm pretty sure it's that way for all South Africans watching🙏🏾💫.
I really enjoy listening to minister Ramokgopa. A highly cerebral man. I share an ancestry with the Ramokgopa clan in Botlokwa,and i take immense pride in the great work he's doing with ESKOM.
Is this about Batlokwa or service delivery and worse part of it , how much units you get from R100 , if you ok with it what about poor who got no work ?
Very impressive Minister - of paramount importance is the base mobilization if you like - has really made fundamental transformation and has left indelible existential impact in our lives. Your efforts are appreciated...
We had been waiting for this interview!! Thanks Sizwe. I consider Kgosi an example of great leadership. I look forward to his book about how the team stopped load-shedding 🎉😊
Thank you for changing our country for the better Dr Ramokgopa I really enjoy listening to Dr Ramokgopa, I think he will grow to be even more pivotal in the country going forward. Keep up the good content, we appreciate you guys. #AyeYe #SpreadTheFire
I must say this is one of the best Cde the ANC has at this moment. Engineers are important people for this country. Big up to SMWX, this was one of the informative interview.
Well spoken man, true care for SA and its people. I hope people like him and Minister Mchunu push the ANC to focus more on its role in the GNU and less on the party. The goal is to fix the country for ALL South Africans, not to bicker amongst rival factions within your party.
Thank you Sizwe..that was an excellent interview ..The minister has really motivated rhe Eskom teams by his affirming each one, and instituting a bit of competition...A great achievement Now lets see if the leaders of the other S O Es follow his example.
Greetings to the Minister, I think he's really a beacon of hope. I agree that he's working hard and results speaks for themselves. I have my reservations about GNU. ANC needed and still needs, to self correct to inspire voter's confidence. Staying in power through life support through GNU might delay the urgency within which ANC needs a change of course.
Damn. This is the kind of leaders we need-someone who isn't a populist or narcissist suffering from main character syndrome. Listen to how he uses 'we' more than 'I.' Data-driven decisions are always better than ideological nonsense. Ideological solutions often isolate great minds or technically superior ideas just because they come from different Ideological frameworks or don’t align with a specific ideology.
Well Done Sizwe and the Team. I like the fact that on progressive interviews you still have segments to guide the session, but you allow the progressing to tell their tale. I loved it. The restoration & proper functionality of the national power utility is among the milestones that should be acknowledged. AYEYE!!
This platform is the future! Sizwe, your interview style is special! How you allow your guests to open up is a thing to marvel at! SMWX is fast becoming a South African treasure!🫶🏽🙌🏽 Thank you for this great interview with the Minister of Electricity. 🙏🏾
Dr Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh this was great interview as usual I enjoyed the conversation. I was listening and thinking that you were interviewing a smart person politician. He didn't get into answers directly but our good minister was very honest and on point. Especially, when he admitted that ANC has had a hand for them to get into 40% during elections. I was very impressed but at the same time I could see that he was very careful with his answers. Siyabonga Doctor, that was great really.
Mhmm you're bringing them Doctors. Since the beginning of the year I haven't miss any episode. I usually listen to Matshiqi or Skhakhane only, but now I'm a full time listener. Go for Dr hlophe now
Danko! I cannot believe that this content is for free. Listening to Sputla elevates my spirits. I feel like I'm in a paid for Leadership course. How I so wish the ANC could have you as it's president.
The honourable Dr is a top guy. These are the kind of leaders that ANC needs. People who are there to serve. It’s unfortunate such people are not able to succeed or make a difference in a cancerous environment vast filled with incompetent and corrupt people who don’t possess any skill to survive outside politics.
I remember the Free Tshwane WiFi project, it was amazing it made the park have people, students were busy and it was just a beautiful thing I myself used it sometimes. Ahhh then in 2016 blue mambas from Western Cape came and all was removed...mxm. DA killed City of Tshwane.
@@rorisangmatea7396 ga ke itse fela DA e ne ya emisa di project tse dingwe tse ne di sa tshwanela go emisiwa. Ko side ya Ga-Rankuwa(ke lebetse lebitso la teng) bane ba emisa project ya di toilet ka 2017/18 and when your favourite mayor Brink was approached he couldn’t answer, in fact they gave it to his spokesperson I think. It was stopped for no reason, they said they smelled corruption which they didn’t find, same story as Tshwane WiFi, and even in 2024 the toilet project had not continued since 2017/18. It was a community centre where the mayor together with his team were invited to answer on stalled constructions, you can check it out it was done by Clement Manyathela for his station I think it’s PowerFM. This was not about construction mafias but it was about DA just stopping projects that ANC did. They felt if it was ANC made then it had to have corruption but it can’t be corruption all over and DA is not as clean as you might think. Even Herman Mashaba said when he was Jozi DA mayor he had DA people come to his home and ask for tenders, this was way before he thought he would even leave the DA. But of course now you guys hate Herman Mashaba because he’s no longer bowing down to DA. Again, not everything that ANC does is full of corruption, not everything DA does is clean.
Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, I remember you. As a resident of City of Tshwane, I can testifier under leadership of "AKA Sputla". You made Tshwane a construction site. The free Wi-Fi you introduced in Tshwane greatly benefited me and many others. You had a wonderful vision for Tshwane, and I am confident you will succeed in any project you undertake. Programs like Tshepo 1, EPWP Catalysis, home-based health visits, and the War on Leaks have made a significant impact. The ANC made a mistake in 2016, but I learned from it. You have indeed addressed the challenges of load shedding, and it's crucial to build more power stations. Additionally, we must prioritize infrastructure maintenance at all levels.
Great interview. As I have said in previous comments at some stage the "revolutionaries" have to stash the barrettes and AKs and pick up a shovel and become builders. Revolutionaries are good at initiating change but not good at what comes after. After the change builders are what is required. Dr Ramokgopa exemplifies the builders. We have too many people stuck in the revolutionary mindset. Some people think talking more about the past will somehow benefit people. Others look to the future and how to affectively improve people lives (ie. looking at countries that have done it - Singapore etc., and effective implementation of strategies that would benefit the country). If the whole of the ANC was like Dr Ramokgopa for the past 30 years we would not even be talking about things like inequality or "a system that only benefits a few". Lets hope this ethos of diligence, competence, commitment, pragmatism, expertise and true patriotism can start permeating through the ANC and the rest of South Africa.
ANC did capture a man of intelligence and intergrity, even though excepting the position Minister of Energy / Electricity, saw him get belittled , but he took it with a good stride , and can proudly accept your platform,Dr Sizwe MWX to speak strongly of political career. Platform of Excellence dear Dr SMWX.
This is a genuinely invigorating and sobering conversation with greatest insights and humility!! Wow! I will remember this interview for a long time to come. This is leadership. Thank you Doc for your quality platform.
The problem is that ANC is too slow to release this generation of leaders..The Minister was one of the brightest SRC leaders in UKZN back in 1994, now 30yrs later only getting unleashed..
SMWX is an institution. 😁🙌🏽🙏🏽

This Minister shows that educated people make better politicians.
