The ANC has been on the political back foot for some time and has struggled to keep its head above water.
This has been recorded and shown by numerous market research results, since the presidency of Cyril Ramaphosa.
The problem the ANC is faced with is a presentation of a credible leader who can substitute the incumbent. The current president is the very best the ANC can offer and that is why it will do everything to keep his credibility intact. The opposition’s newly established league is also not helping the ANC’s cause, either. Just the thought of forming an alliance with the Economic Freedom Fighters to salvage its already waning popularity gives the ANC nightmares, despite its brave utterances.‘Confirmed our suspicions’- EFF may take Reserve Bank to court over Phala Phala decision

South African Reserve Bank Closes Book on Phala Phala ScandalThe South African Reserve Bank (SARB) has cleared President Cyril Ramaphosa of any wrongdoing following its investigation into the Phala Phala saga. SARB found that Ramaphosa's Ntaba Nyoni Estate, that owns the Phala Phala game farm, was not "legally entitled" to the U.S.$580 000 it received from Sudanese businessman Hazim Mustafa for 20 buffalo. The investigation was prompted by a complaint from former spy boss Arthur Fraser, who alleged that Ramaphosa failed to report the burglary at his farm, a violation of the Prevention of Organised Crime Act. Previously, Ramaphosa was cleared of any wrongdoing by the Public Protector. The scandal saw the theft of more than U.S.$500,000 that had been stashed in a sofa at Ramaphosa's Phala Phala game farm. Acting Public Protector Kholeka Gcaleka said Ramaphosa did not violate the ethics code for members of South Africa's executive over the incident, which happened in 2020 but was only revealed publicly in 2022.
