AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Impeachment Clock Ticks Down: Parliament has set the D-day for nominations to a 31-member Phala Phala impeachment committee, with parties racing to submit names by Friday and seats split by proportional representation—while Ramaphosa prepares a legal bid to block the process after the Constitutional Court revived the matter. Courtroom Showdown: Ramaphosa is also lining up a two-pronged court fight against the Section 89 panel report, arguing it’s flawed and that proceedings should be halted. Crime Deployment Debate: In Parliament, Ramaphosa defended SANDF deployments to multiple provinces, saying early indicators point to reduced crime categories and citing thousands of arrests linked to drug networks and illegal mining. Labour Pressure: Pick n Pay faces SACCAWU backlash over proposed labour-condition changes that could affect up to 22 workers. Cost of Living Reality: Even as inflation cools, grocery prices keep biting—South Africans say their R10 buys far less than it did years ago. Regional Diplomacy: BRICS foreign ministers pushed for dialogue in West Asia and safe passage through Hormuz and the Red Sea.
