South Africa's National Assembly Speaker Thoko Didiza has begun the process of forming a 31-member impeachment committee to examine allegations against President Cyril Ramaphosa over foreign currency found at his Phala Phala farm. The move follows a Constitutional Court ruling last Friday that declared a parliamentary rule unconstitutional and required the committee's establishment. Political parties must submit names for the committee by 22 May 2026.

South Africa's Constitutional Court has ruled that Parliament acted unconstitutionally by blocking an impeachment inquiry into President Cyril Ramaphosa in 2022. The decision requires the National Assembly to establish an impeachment committee to examine the Phala Phala matter. Opposition parties immediately called for the president's resignation.
