South Africa’s parliament will establish an impeachment committee to investigate President Cyril Ramaphosa over the “Farmgate” scandal involving $4 million in cash allegedly hidden in a sofa at his game farm.

The move follows a constitutional court ruling that revived impeachment proceedings after parliament previously blocked an inquiry into the matter.

The committee will review evidence and decide whether to recommend formal impeachment steps, a process expected to take several months.

Ramaphosa has denied wrongdoing, said he will not resign, and plans to challenge findings that suggest possible misconduct, Al-Jazeera has reported.

While opposition parties are pushing for accountability, his African National Congress still holds enough parliamentary strength to likely prevent removal even if the inquiry finds against him.
