A legal analyst says the dismissal of President Cyril Ramaphosa’s direct access application by the Constitutional Court in the Section 89 Independent Panel report could potentially be used as ammunition by opposition parties to try and oust the President.

The independent probe led by former Chief Justice, Sandile Ngcobo found that Ramaphosa may have a prima facie case to answer over the theft of a large sum of money in US dollars at his Phala Phala farm in 2020.Legal Analyst Mpumelelo Zikalala says, “From a technical basis, the opposition parties in Parliament then have a leg to stand on… Most of which were relying on this particular matter which has been thrown out by the court on the basis of a technicality.

Zikalala says, “We are in this position because it is the President himself that said yes there was money which was found on my premises. I was engaged in other activities of which the Constitution is very clear that they cannot be done by the President.”

Ammunition 🤦‍♂️ to try and oust. The man broke the laws of the country finish. He does not deserve to be president, klaar.

,.

It should be used as ammunition by all law abiding citizens to remove a criminal president from office. Why should it only be opposition parties? What does sabcnews intend to do? 🙄🙄🙄

Nobody wants him out more than his comrades.

… try an OUST! What? When he is never here in SA, signing deals to produce Covid vaccines after the pandemic, Eskimo, SOEs, bailouts, rubbish governance, corruption at Phala Phala with zero accountability

Allegedly PhalaphalaFarmgate Matresses Dollars scandal is more stubborn than a limping Buffalo. Hope you understand

Just close down you being useless now

Good. He's less than bloody useless anyway.

Its a stinking POES that does not know when to fuckoff.

They gona try anyway on de 20th of March

What kind of analysis is this SABC🤔 😳

A president is outsted by his party not opposition. Opposition must gunner votes. Stop waisting time m energy. Pass laws n stop being obsessed with Ramaphosa. They just want to weaken n divide ANC

Legal Analysts are identical as the Political Analysts in SA. Very much biased and are mostly RET Pro hence i am not baffled by what they are saying.

I wonder who the analyst is because nothing is going to happen here

As long as he stl call the shots he wil not face music bcoz he pays the Npa salary

South Africans could be so happy if he is outsted.

Thanks for ruining this country, your children and our people will suffer, you have done horrible job, we have to rebuild years of corruption, you must be proud, take your money and leave

Ramaphosa is useless. He must resign. Then later jailed

Akahambe

Plis before its too late

He must vy

The cANCer is the ANC. They will just replace him or her with another compromised inept person. Drain the swamp.

Look at the rubbish of analysis we are subjected to by SABC News. Really?

It is not ammunition,The State of Disaster declared on Eskom alone with no results is enough to oust him

🙄invited nonsensical analysis as always.& it looks like, the legacy of inempt Hlaudi Motsoeneng will keep ruining the SABC forever!🙆🏻‍♂️

That legal analyst is FAKE. The opposition does not have the numbers and that report has already been thrown out of the window by parliament. It belongs to the dustbin.

He is going no where , they can try but will not succeed.

After all, this man doesn't deserve to be the president of this country. He has committed serious crimes. The sooner he's ousted the better.

He is going shem NationalShutdown

The man he's a Criminal finish, he committed so many serious crimes, he deserves to go to jail. Legal analyst can say whatever trying to spin this but 'It is what it is'

Meaning panel might solve the problem of eskom and other crisis we facing as a country

He must just go.... no balls Cyril is not fit to lead,he is really a ps

There are so many reasons to get rid of him. It just needs to happen. The ANC must go.

The man commits a crime, and you want to call it ammunition

sarstax sent me a 'FINAL DEMAND' letter that I should pay them an overdue amount of over R3k they say I owe them but here is a man with a total R4.2 million undeclared cash stolen in his farm. SARS are still 'investigating'. Yah neh!

That's music to my ears. Give that legal analyst more airtime!

Nonsense!

LET HIM GO, kubi maan.

Crime is crime whether committed by foreigners, SAns or the president, there is nothing special about Ramaphosa, Zuma was jailed for no apparent reason, this one is found dealing with millions of dollars and we just have to smile. Foolish.

Every (mi)step by the President is ammunition by opposition parties to try and oust him

It should be used finish and klaar

Why is a legal analyst giving a political analysis of the courts decision.
