Summary
President Cyril Ramaphosa is suing to halt impeachment proceedings sparked by a 2022 parliamentary report alleging mishandling of stolen cash from his farm — a scandal dubbed “Farmgate.” The Constitutional Court recently sided with Ramaphosa’s party in a prior impeachment vote, but with the ANC now in a coalition government, the political landscape has shifted. Ramaphosa claims the panel misread the evidence and overstepped its authority, demanding the court scrap the report and stop the process. Meanwhile, a new 16-party impeachment committee is already forming to decide if there’s grounds to proceed — putting the nation’s political future on the line.
