Ramaphosa must step down after damning Phala Phala report
1 December 2022
The findings of the Section 89 panel of inquiry into the Phala Phala matter, that there is sufficient prima facie evidence to impeach President Cyril Ramaphosa, leave him with no other choice but to step down immediately.
The findings leave no room for doubt that various criminal offences were possibly committed, and it brings into disrepute both the Office of the Presidency and the office of President.
According to the independent panel, the matter is "serious" and may also constitute a violation of Section 96 of the Constitution, which deals with the conduct of Cabinet members and ministers.
The questions raised and the panel's findings are in line with what the FF Plus and other opposition parties have been saying all along about the obvious irregularities that transpired.
