It was not immediately clear why Mokwele asked Ramaphosa to assist her with her financial woes but the EFF said she had directly asked for the money from Ramaphosa.
However, Ndlozi said this confession was further proof that Ramaphosa was directly involved in the finances of the campaign. Presidential spokesperson Khusela Diko said although she could not verify the payment allegations, this did not prove that Ramaphosa had day-to-day knowledge of the account's transactions.
"... If their account of what transpired is true, all it proves is that the president is a caring and compassionate human being," said Khusela. Ramaphosa - both in parliament and before the public protector - said that he was not directly involved with the funding of the campaign. This, public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane said, was not true and found that Ramaphosa had misled parliament as she said he was fully aware and had addressed several fundraising gatherings where some of the funders and donors were present.
