President Cyril Ramaphosa may have committed a serious violation of the law and serious misconduct in terms of the constitution.

This is according to the section 89 panel of legal experts, headed by retired chief justice Sandile Ngcobo.

The panel said in light of all the information placed before it,"we conclude that this information discloses, prima facie, that the president may have committed a serious violation of sections 96 and a serious violation of section 34 of Prevention and and combating of Corrupt Activities Act, a serious misconduct in that the president violated section 96 by acting in a way that is inconsistent with his office, and a serious misconduct in that the president violated section 96 by exposing...

That section provides for the National Assembly to remove a president from office on the grounds of a serious violation of the constitution or the law, serious misconduct and an inability to perform the functions of office. The party charged he violated the constitution which prohibits members of the cabinet and deputy ministers from “undertaking any other paid work”, among other things. It also suggested Ramaphosa tried to cover up the robbery as he did not report it to the police, as required by law.

In June, former state security director-general Arthur Fraser opened a criminal case against Ramaphosa about the robbery in June.

These ANC looters are so deep into their crimes that they don't even know how easy it is to come clean, confess and rectify the situation. As long as they confuse their supporters all will be fine. . . . .or maybe not.

I am appalled by this PhalaPhala process. The focus should be on sarstax laying charges of tax evasion, or SAReserveBank laying charges for a Forex breach. Let the RonaldLamola Rule of Law manage this, not unqualified MYANC politicians!

I hate the word 'may', especially when used by a judge.

zondo wont help him this time around

ramaphosamustgo CRmustGO

We all knew that…..the report is in line with the facts and our expectations….anything else would be a travesty of justice…..now the law must dictate the way forward….

The key word is MAY

I knew all along. The question is when is he vacating the office👀 or will it be Marikana 2?

He promised to step aside. Let's see if he meant it.

He must go before decommission the remaining all Eskom_SA coal powered plants for 'JUST LOOTING TRANSITION' Julius_S_Malema

Nothing stops his excellency president DD Mabusa from addressing his nation tonight at Union Buildings unless if he's still in Russia

Step down please
