Are Ramaphosa's detractors building a case to remove him? | Sunday Independent

Johannesburg - President Cyril Ramaphosa’s detractors in the ANC are using the poor state of the economy, the Eskom crisis and his refusal to fire Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan to build a case for his removal at the party’s national general council in June, sources said this week.

They told Sunday Independent that Ramaphosa was forced to skip the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland, to deal with the internal rebellion over Gordhan and plans by his rivals to use this week’s national executive committee meeting to prepare the ground for his removal from power. Five ANC and senior government sources - including three NEC members - said a new faction comprising supporters of Jacob Zuma and Thabo Mbeki, as well as disgruntled Ramaphosa allies, had been gathering evidence against the president to prove to the NGC that he had chosen Gordhan over the party and the country.

The biggest problem will not be his removal but the total lack of suitable candidates to replace him. Anyway, it's a pipe dream that will never materialize.

They can enjoy it while it last and after removing him it will be the end of ANC as a governing party.Who will succeed Ramaphosa?Nkosazana Zuma to re-opening looting taps?

The even bigger problem is the ANC here

Can they remove him already. Kanti yena eintlik when is he going to impose himself? Useless so far
