Ramaphosa vs Parliament Impeachment Standoff
Description
President Ramaphosa defends Speaker Thoko Didiza’s decision not to block his bid to pause the impeachment inquiry, calling it a constitutional exercise upholding separation of powers. Didiza chose to comply with the Constitutional Court’s ruling that sent the Phala Phala report back to Parliament, filing an affidavit to justify Parliament’s stance without opposing Ramaphosa’s court application. Opposition parties accuse her of political favoritism and dereliction of duty, while legal advice to the impeachment committee urged them to oppose the application — a duty they’re now navigating amid a July 15-16 court hearing on Ramaphosa’s urgent interdict.
