Ramaphosa said that approximately $580,000 was stolen from the ranch, explaining that the money represented the proceeds from the sale of several buffalo.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8902\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8902\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8902\" src=\"https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1700756957202.jpg\" alt=\"South African police\" width=\"660\" height=\"387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1700756957202.jpg 660w, https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1700756957202-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1700756957202-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8902\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">South African police<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>However, the incident raised widespread questions within South African political and legal circles about why such a large sum of cash was kept inside household furniture, and whether the funds had been declared in accordance with applicable regulations. The president, for his part, has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing or violation of the law.<\/p>\n<p>South Africa\u2019s Constitutional Court last month revived impeachment proceedings against Ramaphosa, ruling that the parliamentary vote that halted the process in 2022 was illegal and invalid, thus reopening the parliamentary process for investigating the case.<\/p>\n<p>The Supreme Court is scheduled to consider the lawsuit filed by the president challenging the findings of the investigation committee between September 2 and 4, which could be a crucial turning point in the future of the case.<\/p>\n<p>Ramaphosa, 73, has been president of South Africa since 2018, and his second presidential term is expected to last until 2029.<\/p>\n<p>Although the Farmgate scandal has damaged the image of the president, who came to power promising to fight corruption and repair the reputation of the ruling African National Congress party, a number of political analysts believe that the chances of his removal are still limited, predicting that he will survive any potential parliamentary vote on his dismissal.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0643\u062a\u0628:
