Ramaphosa re-elected as South Africa’s president

Published

on

Cyril Ramaphosa, president of South Africa, has been re-elected as leader of the country’s ruling African National Congress (ANC).

In the results announced on Monday, Ramaphosa polled 2,476 votes to defeat Zweli Mkhize, a former health minister, who got 1,897 votes.

Mkhize was part of Ramaphosa’s government until he was forced to resign in 2021 over allegations of misspending funds set aside to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic.

He denied the accusations and his supporters saw the claims as an attempt to discredit him.

Ramaphosa’s triumph as ANC leader positions him to seek a second term as South Africa’s president in 2024.

The president’s victory comes amid allegations of breaking anti-corruption laws by stashing undeclared money in his farm.
