Ramaphosa's Resilience in 'Farmgate' Saga

ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula clarified that the recent constitutional court judgment does not necessitate President Cyril Ramaphosa's resignation over the 'Farmgate' scandal. The controversy emerged after cash was reportedly stolen from his ranch, leading to renewed impeachment efforts.

In a significant development, the African National Congress (ANC) has stated that President Cyril Ramaphosa is not obligated to resign following the constitutional court's recent judgment on the 'Farmgate' scandal.
