Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh – Why President Cyril Ramaphosa should resign: If the spirit of the step-aside rule is to protect the ANC from public perceptions of corruption, then Ramaphosa meets every aspect of the rule’s aim

At worst, then, Ramaphosa faces spiralling and devastating criminal trials and impeachment proceedings. At best, his ethical conduct misses the required standard. In either scenario, the principle of presidential accountability should transcend petty factional concerns or the fear of what follows Ramaphosa.
