President Cyril Ramaphosa addresses the nation.

President Cyril Ramaphosa has scoffed at a motion of no confidence in him set to be debated in Parliament later on Wednesday afternoon.

The motion was brought by African Transformation Movement (ATM) leader Vuyolwethu Zungula.

However, the ATM will not participate in the motion after the National Assembly Speaker ruled that it will not be a secret ballot.

Earlier, the Western Cape High Court dismissed ATM urgent application to have a secret ballot.

Speaking to the SABC on the side-lines of the National Union of Mineworkers national congress in Boksburg east of Johannesburg, Ramaphosa said he is not concerned by the motion.

The ATM says it will ask the Speaker of Parliament to postpone the motion pending application in the Western Cape High Court seeking to force a secret ballot in the voting process.

On Monday, the court struck off the roll an urgent application by the ATM on the matter.

National Assembly Speaker, Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula, insists there must be an open vote.

Political parties react to the court’s ruling:
