Acting chief justice Raymond Zondo, who chaired the inquiry, also proposed new legislation that makes abuse of public power illegal.

He suggested offenders should be jailed for up to 20 years or fined R200m or both.

Part one of the report was handed over at the beginning of the year. The third and final part of the report is due to be presented to Ramaphosa by the end of February.

The presidency said Ramaphosa will submit the report to parliament by June 30 with an indication of his intentions with regards to the implementation of the commissions recommendations.

The handover of the second part of the report of the commission of inquiry is another step forward in the work we need to do to rid our country of corruption, Ramaphosa said.

The commission has constructed a disturbing picture of the depth and damage of state capture.

We should apply our energies to the commissions recommendations and take the necessary steps to make sure we never face this onslaught on public resources and on the fabric of our society.

Many shared their opinions about the report and called for justice. Some doubted the recommendations in the report would be implemented, and a few said they were not impressed by the report.

Here is a snapshot into some of the reactions:
