As officials take their time processing the growing scandal surrounding President Cyril Ramaphosa’s Phala Phala Farm, the African National Congress (ANCnational )’s working committee (NWC) has been told that the organization fears a repeat of how it handled the Nkandla saga.
According to Eyewitness News, the issue was averted on Monday after some members requested an update on the situation.
This comes as calls for accountability and transparency regarding the alleged theft of millions of dollars from Ramaphosa’s farm in 2020 continue.
Namibian officials’ confirmation of some aspects of former spy boss Arthur Fraser’s claims has raised even more questions about the incident and the president’s role in it.
While ANC officials appear to recognize pressure from outside and within the party against Ramaphosa, they are taking their time in investigating the 2020 theft at his farm.
According to NWC sources, officials did not want a repeat of their handling of non-security upgrades at former President Jacob Zuma’s home.

The scandal, which earned the party’s leaders a stinging rebuke from the country’s highest court, also caused the ANC to lose ground in the polls.
With Ramaphosa’s current scandal, officials are said to be still investigating the matter and intend to produce a comprehensive report once it is completed.
Ramaphosa will also be called before the ANC’s integrity commission.
