ATM Parliamentary Leader Vuyo Zungula says the party will oppose President Cyril Ramaphosa’s court bid to halt the Phala Phala impeachment inquiry, calling it an attempt to delay accountability.
ATM’s Parliamentary Leader Vuyo Zungula says the African Transformation Movement will oppose President Cyril Ramaphosa’s urgent court application seeking to halt Parliament’s impeachment inquiry into the Phala Phala farm scandal, accusing the President of attempting to delay accountability through the courts.
This comes after Ramaphosa launched an urgent court bid to halt Parliament’s impeachment process linked to the Phala Phala scandal.
He filed papers in the Western Cape High Court on Friday seeking to review and set aside the Section 89 independent panel report, which found there was prima facie evidence that he may have violated the Constitution and committed serious misconduct in connection with the 2020 burglary at his Phala Phala farm.
Ramaphosa argued that the impeachment process should not continue while he challenges the underlying report in court.
