The African National Congress (ANC) NEC member Tony Yengeni says he expects President Cyril Ramaphosa to step down at their special NEC meeting on Thursday afternoon.
This follows the finding of the Independent Panel of Experts that the President has a case to answer in his Phala Phala farm saga.
The Freedom Front Plus agrees with Yengeni.
The panel’s assessment follows the theft of millions of US dollars at Ramaphosa’s farm in Limpopo more than two years ago.
