South African president says he will not step down after impeachment call
✦ AI Brief
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has stated that he will not step down after a court ruling paved the way for parliament to consider impeachment proceedings against him. He will legally challenge a report that found prima facie evidence of serious misconduct in the handling of a theft at his private farm. Ramaphosa has denied wrongdoing and claims the money came from the sale of buffalo from his farming business. He will ask the courts to review and set aside the report, which relied on hearsay evidence.
