EFF Slams Ramaphosa for Backing Gordhan, Claims President’s Days Are Numbered

The EFF has again criticised President Cyril Ramaphosa over his failure to act with regards to the Public Protector’s remedial action over Pravin Gordhan.

Ramaphosa said he would only act on the public enterprises minister following his review of the Public Protector’s findings into the early retirement of former SARS deputy commissioner Ivan Pillay, which was approved by Gordhan in 2009.

EFF leader Julius Malema told journalists during a media briefing at the party’s headquarters on Tuesday that Ramaphosa’s actions were a direct assault on a chapter nine institution and the Constitution.

He said the conduct being displayed by the president showed others they could undermine or ignore the chapter nine institution.
