President Cyril Ramaphosa had nothing to lose by speaking out against state capture during his predecessor Jacob Zuma's chaotic reign, says chief justice Raymond Zondo.

“At an NEC meeting in 2011, Mr Fikile Mbalula had told the NEC that Mr Ajay Gupta had told him in advance that he was going to be appointed as minister of sports and recreation and had complained about it on the basis that he should have been told by President Zuma about his appointment. In effect, Mr Mbalula was alerting the ANC NEC that the Guptas were exercising undue influence over President Zuma.

“In my view, these three factors or events were enough to have shown President Ramaphosa that the allegations of state capture were credible.“However, just in case those three factors were not enough, then the dismissal of Mr Nene as minister of finance ought to have convinced president Ramaphosa that there was credence in the allegations of state capture.”

Ramaphosa testified that he"was morally opposed to acquiescing and abetting as well as to keeping silent. He said that, if he and others had resigned, there would have been even fewer impediments to the unfettered expansion of the state capture project.“He said that if he had been confronted, he would have been removed and therefore would be unable to prevent state capture.

Worse with Fraser is his lack of intelligence to detect terrorism funding mechanisms in the Country. What a disgrace that his counterparts will outshine him in his own territory.
