The president says he is not above the law and will subject himself to criminal investigations.
But Ramaphosa told the SACP the matter was being used to intimidate and bully him, adding that he would not cower or submit.
It was for this reason, said Ramaphosa, that he will “not be distracted” from carrying out his duties to lead the country towards economic recovery. “I will not allow these allegations [to deter me] from what needs to be done to rebuild our economy, and deter me and discourage me from the work I have to do. And I will not be intimidated nor distracted nor bullied into submission.
