If I am fired, it will be at the president's pleasure - Ramaphosa
Cape Town - Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa says he cannot do anything to stop President Jacob Zuma from removing him from his position in government if wished to do so.
This comes after media reports that Ramphosa would be next to be axed by Zuma, following Tuesday's Cabinet reshuffle.
Ramaphosa faced a grilling in the National Assembly on Thursday during a question and answer session, as MPs lobbied question after question at him about his future.
The question was meant to be about corruption in state-owned enterprises, but opposition MPs couldn't resist putting Ramaphosa on the spot following the reports of his possible removal.
EFF's Floyd Shivambu sneaked in a question on comments made by former union leader James Molatsi, who said Ramaphosa is next in line to face the chop, and could happen as soon as Friday.
