Cyril Ramaphosa panics

Reports from South Africa indicate that the country's President Matamela Cyril Ramaphosa's lawyers have accused the public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane of unlawfully obtaining financial information from bank accounts linked to the CR17 campaign which she used in her report implicating him in money laundering.

Ramaphosa's lawyers are said to have placed a plea to the North Gauteng High Court to conceal the records to be submitted by Busisiwe Mkhwebane in Ramaphosa's case seeking to interdict the implementation of the remedial action contained in her Bosasa report.

Earlier this week we reported that Former MTN group CEO and Eskom board member Sifiso Dabengwa funded the South Africa President Matamela Cyril Ramaphosa's campaign with a whopping R500 000.

The Zimbabwean born Dabengwa was one of the key campaign members who fundraised for Ramaphosa and was allegedly rewarded with a board appointment at the country's' power utility company Eskom.

President Ramaphosa is accused of being a front of businesspersons who funded the CR17 campaign that saw his trounce Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma in the race to lead the ANC.
