Malema says EFF's ultimate goal is for Ramaphosa to be impeached over Phala Phala scandal

Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema says the party’s ultimate goal is for President Cyril Ramaphosa to be impeached over the Phala Phala scandal.

On Friday, the party marched to the Constitutional Court in Braamfontein, urging the court to deliver a judgment on its legal challenge on the matter.

Exactly a year ago, the red berets approached the apex court, contesting Parliament’s decision to dismiss a report that found Ramaphosa may have violated his oath of office.

The report raised serious concerns about the president’s conduct in handling the 2020 theft of foreign currency at his Phala Phala farm in Limpopo.

Malema told party supporters that Ramaphosa must be held accountable for the scandal.

"Impeachment is the highest form of discipline when you discipline a judge or a president. If we pass a motion of no confidence against Ramaphosa, he’s going to get his salary for the rest of his life. But if we impeach him, he will lose all the benefits, including the salary. That is what we want."
