Ramaphosa To Face First Motion of No Confidence Next Week
By Phumzile Mavimbela
President Cyril Ramaphosa is set to face the first motion of no confidence in his leadership in Parliament next week. The motion was filed by African Transformation Movement earlier this year before lockdown began. ATM threatened to take the matter to court if the motion is not deliberated on in parliament within this term.
ATM has requested this motion on the premise of its belief that President Ramaphosa failed disclose to Parliament that he benefitted from the CR17 campaign, which financed his bid to become ANC president. The debate will be heard next Thursday, a day before the National Assembly is set to rise.
