Signatories of the ANC in eight provinces called for its disciplinary committee to take action against the party’s number one.
“The African National Congress is, as a consequence, faced with a serious legitimacy crisis with regard to the election of President Ramaphosa, and the current national executive committee of the ANC.
“The use of money in order to influence conference outcomes is indeed a very serious matter, and as a consequence of the actions of President Ramaphosa and his ‘CR17 Campaign’, it has become more pronounced and insidious. “In this context, we, as concerned ANC members in good standing who have the best interests of the ANC at heart, decided to file an application through the Office of the Secretary-General of the ANC, to the effect that disciplinary proceedings must be instituted against President Ramaphosa for having obtained and used private funding with the expressed intention to influence the outcomes of the ANC’s 54th National Conference leadership elections.
Maphisa said Ramaphosa was accused of deliberately breaching the ANC constitution by accepting private funds and using private business sources to get himself elected as president and going to extraordinary lengths to protect the identity of those who funded his campaign. She also lashed out at the ANC national executive committee for failing to hold Ramaphosa accountable, saying that was because they had also benefited from the CR17 funds.
