In a statement released Friday evening, the integrity commission claims the report circulating on social media is baseless, and has no authority, accusing those who leaked the so-called report of attempting to put the committee in disarray.' African National Congress November 11, 2022 At the same time, Ramaphosa has, during a national executive meeting – currently underway attempted to take the National Executive Committee members into his confidence.
While leaders like ANC KwaZulu-Natal’s Bheki Mtolo demanded the report on the Phala Phala farm saga, Ramaphosa used his political report to try to give the NEC insights into the saga.While arguments over his future are likely to continue, those in his corner are adamant that there’s no reason for Ramaphosa to step aside.
Ironically, this dilemma has resulted in the loudest critics of the 2017 resolution now turning silent as they see it as a loophole they can use to rid the ANC of a Ramaphosa presidency – this as they face the possibility of his return to the helm at the national conference.
