AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Phala Phala Power Struggle: President Cyril Ramaphosa has ruled out resigning and says he’ll challenge the Section 89 panel report in court, even as Parliament moves to set up an impeachment committee after the Constitutional Court struck down the 2022 block—leaving the country in a fresh legal and political standoff. Parliament Watch: Parties are gearing up for Thursday’s scrutiny in the National Assembly, while the ANC’s urgent NEC meeting is expected to debate the way forward. Xenophobia Fallout: Ramaphosa also tried to calm the region with an open letter blaming “opportunists” for anti-foreigner violence, as Ghana’s Ablakwa backed him and urged decisive action. Public Health: Hantavirus fears continue, with one Western Cape woman monitored after symptoms but tests reportedly negative so far. Service Delivery Pressure: The DA has launched court action over Johannesburg’s water crisis, accusing Joburg Water and the city of failing to implement its own turnaround plan. Sport & Society: South Africa’s swimmers returned from Algeria with 84 medals, while Limpopo mob-justice killings saw six men sentenced to life.
