A court has ruled that Cyril Ramaphosa was under no obligation to disclose his campaign funding to parliament. A full bench found that the public protector had reached an 'irrational and unlawful conclusion on the facts before her'.
They all argued against aspects of Mkhwebane’s report, which was initiated after Ramaphosa allegedly"misled" parliament on the R500,000 Bosasa donation received by the CR17 campaign. The campaign funded his bid to become president of the ANC. Mkhwebane also broadened the scope of the investigation to include a wider probe into the funding of Ramaphosa's campaign for the ANC presidency in 2017. She concluded that there was merit to allegations of money laundering and found Ramaphosa had violated the executive code of ethics and may have exposed himself to a conflict of interest in receiving certain donations.The court found that the public protector did not have jurisdiction to investigate the CR17 campaign.

She better leave the office to save her image as advocate coz all her findings are challenged and she loses with costs.
She did what DA told her to do, now she's all alone in the mud.
This will end up in the Constitutional powers as the N GP narrowly interpreted the PP Act:(
PublicProtector should save us all the drama and just resign clearly she knows nothing about the law. Shameful
Shows the weakness of our regulation of campaign funding. The same applies to all campaigns.
