ATM notes that the panel to assess the impeachment case against Ramaphosa has been appointed
15 September 2022
The ATM commends the Speaker for taking only two weeks to apply her mind and balance many variables with the result that the Independent Panel has now been announced. The ATM is alive to some of the complimentary public comments by Professor Richard Calland towards Mr Ramaphosa. However, in good faith we will not delay the process challenging his appointment.
The view we take as the ATM is that all the panelists will conduct themselves in an objective manner and ensure that the objects of the Constitution are upheld, defended and respected.
The ATM is furthermore convinced that the work of the panel should be very easy because the standard against which they will be evaluating submitted evidence is cast in stone, and also that the evidence submitted is not only uncontested but incontestable.
The ATM feels very strongly that the fact that the Speaker who is also supported by a competent legal team agreed to move this Impeachment Inquiry to the next stage meaning the evidence submitted is compelling and ticks all the boxes.
