Phala Phala.

CAPE TOWN - The Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse (OUTA) has called on parties within the Government of National Unit not to shy away from holding President Cyril Ramaphosa accountable on the Phala Phala matter.

This comes as the African National Congress (ANC) announced that it had reached an agreement with ten parties to form a government.

Public Protector Advocate Kholeka Gcaleka cleared President Ramaphosa of wrongdoing in the complaint against him, over the handling of the housebreaking and theft at his private Phala Phala farm in 2022.

OUTA executive director, Wayne Duvenage, said that no one was above the law.

"Anybody who is implicated to some glaring extent, as has been with the president and some of the others, needs to be investigated but independently, and with forensic investigations that are going to give us facts."
