Dear Cyril Ramaphosa, I mean President
Updated | By The Late Show
#DearCyril has been a hot topic on social media after Cyril Ramaphosa was elected President of South Africa.
Cyril Ramaphosa is the new President of South Africa.
South Africans have been quick to share their advice for the new President, whether he wants to hear it or not.
We do think he’d have a lot to gain if he did, though.
Many South Africans think Ramaphosa has what the country needs to move forward. We'll just have to wait and see.
Dear Cyril, you have been handed a beautiful albeit slightly damaged egg. Please #FixTheBelovedCountry

#DearCyril please remove all implicated #StateCapture ministers from their positions they hold via a lucky packet dip with compliments from our ex president

Dear President Cyril Ramaphosa

I hope your first order of office is to reshuffle....recall....actually fire all JZ incompetent cadres. We all know them.
We will support you on this one.
A new broom sweeps clean.

We can all agree on one thing, though - Cyril's arrival should mean we are done with midnight cabinet reshuffles and late-night addresses to the nation.
Dear Cyril Ramaphosa... pls dont be like Zuma to make important announcements at night !!!!

Zuma announced his immediate resignation as head of state on Wednesday evening after initially putting up a fight to cling to power.
The ANC recalled him as President on Tuesday.
Listeners also shared their parting words with Zuma on the Breakfast Show with Martin Bester and Tumi Morake.
What advice would you give Ramaphosa ahead of this new chapter in our country's political journey?
