Is the Presidential Honeymoon Over for Cyril Ramaphosa?

Mayor of Dihlabeng Local Municipality in the Free State Lindiwe Kambule Makhalema has been slammed by the ruling African National Congress after she accused President Cyril Ramaphosa of being a "stinking sellout". This comes after Misheck Mutize of The Conversation wrote that citizens' patience for Ramaphosa's presidency is waning: "The failure by the ANC government to deliver basic services and endemic corruption is driving people to the streets."
