South Africa’s watchdog has accused President Cyril Ramaphosa of misleading parliament and potential money laundering over a campaign donation.
Ramaphosa has previously denied any wrongdoing and his supporters say the allegations made by Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane are politically motivated. The scandal is seen as part of a larger power struggle within the governing party.
Last year, Ramaphosa told parliament that he had not received election campaign donations from a controversial local company during his bid to lead the ruling African National Congress (ANC). It later emerged that was not true and Ramphosa apologised saying he had been misinformed but South Africa’s corruption watchdog has now said Ramaphosa deliberately misled parliament and should be investigated by prosecutors.
