ANALYSIS: As Andile Ramaphosa’s link with Bosasa grows deep, what kind of damage to his father? By Stephen Grootes StephenGrootes

More questions will be posed about President Cyril Ramaphosa’s probity. At the same time, questions will be raised about the perceived corruption in our politics generally, and of course, whether this will impact the election in any significant way.

The crucial issue here is whether or not Andile Ramaphosa in fact provided services in return for the money that he received. This seems to be a slightly murky area. To complicate matters further, the Zondo Commission into State Capture has now heard testimony about how Angelo Agrizzi was trying to muscle the Watson brothers out of certain lucrative contracts with Correctional Services.

However, the tone could be important here. When Jacob Zuma was president, he and those around him tended to deny, deny, deny. Then, if they were caught with obvious evidence against them, claims of conspiracy would emerge. Both Ramaphosa and Andile Ramaphosa use a different tactic. They apologise, admit wrongdoing, and promise never to do it again, which may make a difference in how it plays out with the electorate.
