'Ramaphosa Must Admit He Lied to South African Parliament'

Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema says President Cyril Ramaphosa must take full responsibility and admit that he lied to parliament. In a letter addressed to the Speaker of the National Assembly the president has backtracked on a response he gave before the National Assembly over U.S.$36,000 payment from Bosasa, allegedly for the benefit of his son, Andile Ramaphosa, saying the October 2017 payment was a donation towards his ANC presidential campaign, which he claims was made without his knowledge.
