EFF races to ConCourt to revive Ramaphosa Phala Phala impeachment

By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

In an urgent bid to restore parliamentary oversight, the EFF have petitioned the Constitutional Court to overturn a Western Cape High Court ruling that halted Parliament’s Section 89 impeachment process against President Cyril Ramaphosa.

The dispute arises from a Western Cape High Court majority decision that stayed “public impeachment hearings” pending the president’s review of the Panel Report.

Unless the Constitutional Court intervenes, the EFF warns that the majority’s reasoning will allow any constitutional office-bearer to halt accountability processes simply by launching a review and alleging reputational or “rule of law” harm.
