Ramaphosa faces criticism for alleged stalling tactics at taxpayers' expense

President Cyril Ramaphosa has taken legal action against the independent panel report regarding the Phala Phala matter, claiming its conclusions are flawed. Political parties are warning against stalling tactics that could be costly to taxpayers. The report, compiled by former Chief Justice Sandile Ngcobo, concluded there was prima facie evidence of misconduct by Ramaphosa, which he disputes, arguing the panel misunderstood its mandate.
