The African National Congress (ANC) in South Africa has rescheduled a crucial National Executive Committee meeting concerning President Cyril Ramaphosa's 'Farmgate' scandal. Initially set for Tuesday evening, the meeting was postponed to Wednesday due to inclement weather in Cape Town, a party spokesperson confirmed.
In an unfolding controversy known as the 'Farmgate' scandal, President Ramaphosa is under pressure following revelations of foreign currency theft from a couch on his ranch by thieves in 2020.
