South African President Cyril Ramaphosa confronted internal party opponents during an executive committee session in Germiston, demanding that critics openly request his departure instead of engaging in private discussions about his potential exit. The president stated he would resign immediately if formally asked, dismissing speculation about stepping down following the international summit.
Acting national spokesperson Nonceba Mhlauli rejected assertions about leadership changes, confirming that the current executive committee elected in December 2022 will serve until December 2027. Ramaphosa also advocated for financial disclosure reviews of all executive members while condemning corruption within party operations.
The gathering addressed preparations for the summit and deliberated on matters involving Free State Premier Maqueen Letsoha-Mathae, with comprehensive outcomes scheduled for release later.
