The Public Protector has found that President Cyril Ramaposa deliberately misled Parliament when he answered a parliamentary question about a payment received by the CR17 campaign from Bosasa.

In her bombshell report, advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane also found that there was “merit” in the suspicion of money laundering, because the payment passed through “several intermediaries, instead of a straight donation towards the CR17 campaign”.

Although Ramaphosa is not an MP, the committee could look into former MPs also, she said in response to a question. “Out of all the donations received for the campaign, records reflect that there were three single largest donations of thirty million rand … on March 2017; more than 39-million rand … on 29 September 2017 and over fifty one million rand … on the same date into the EFG2 ABSA trust account, which came from the same donor,” said Mkhwebane.
