We will fight with every means at our disposal to ensure that those who occupy positions of authority serve only the public interest and our people - not their own pockets and not themselves,' he said.
Ramaphosa, who was speaking at the party's Siyanqoba rally in Johannesburg on Sunday, said SA will not surrender its freedom to corruption and state capture.
"We will not submit and we will not retreat. We will fight with every means at our disposal to ensure that those who occupy positions of authority serve only the public interest and our people - not their own pockets and not themselves," he said. "The Zondo commission [into allegations of state capture] is uncovering the nature and extent of state capture. We have done much to restore the credibility and effectiveness of a number of institutions that had been weakened: the National Prosecuting Authority, the SA Revenue Service, the police and the State Security Agency … But the road ahead is long, and there is still much to be done.
