ANC top body to decide S African Prez Ramaphosa’s fate

Johannesburg, Dec 4 (PTI) South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on Sunday said that the top body of the African National Congress (ANC), of which he is also the President, must decide on his fate in the wake of a report that accused him of having flouted his constitutional obligations.

The report said it had found sufficient evidence that the President may have violated a section of the Prevention and Combatting of Corrupt Activities Act and may have committed serious misconduct by “exposing himself to a situation involving a conflict between his official responsibilities and his private business”.

Ramaphosa arrived at a postponed meeting of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the ANC on Sunday afternoon, but recused himself to allow “free expression” as they debate the report.
