Among other things, the president is accused of covering up the theft of foreign currency at his Limpopo farm in 2020. 

 

He has denied any criminal wrongdoing.


"The misuse of state resources has failed dismally and it has failed dismally due to the efforts of the Economic Freedom Fighters and principled opposition parties who refused to allow justice to be delayed to suit Ramaphosa's political aspirations," says EFF's Leigh-Ann Mathys.
