Foreign cash stolen from President Ramaphosa’s Phala Phala farm in 2020 set off a storm of allegations, undeclared funds, whispers of a coverup, and questions about accountability. By 2022, Parliament’s Section 89 panel concluded there was prima facie evidence of misconduct. Instead of pursuing it, the National Assembly rejected the report outright, sparking outrage and a Constitutional Court challenge. Fast forward to May 2026: the Court ruled that rejection unconstitutional, forcing the report back into the spotlight and sending it to an impeachment committee for full investigation.
This case is more than headlines, it’s a reminder that accountability cannot be sidestepped. Transparency and compliance are not optional. Declare your assets. Fulfill reporting duties. Respect independent oversight when allegations arise. These principles protect democracy, safeguard reputations, and ensure justice is served.
At JHJ Attorneys Inc, we stand by one truth: due process protects both the accused and the public.
