The report by an independent panel, chaired by retired chief justice Sandile Ngcobo, found there was prima facie evidence that Ramaphosa might have violated the constitution and his oath of office in the manner in which he dealt with the theft of hundreds of thousands of dollars from his luxury Phala Phala game farm.
“If the president wanted to run away from the debate he could have interdicted the debate,” the minister said.ANC chief whip Pemmy Majodina said the ANC will not support the independent panel report until it has concrete evidence. “It should be rejected because it was flimsy,” she said. DA leader John Steenhuisen said in his debate speech the Phala Phala scandal is no different from the Nkandla debacle during the Jacob Zuma years.
