UAT questiona nomeação do presidente da comissão de impeachment do Parlamento

O partido United Africans Transformation levantou preocupações sobre a nomeação de Makashule Gana como presidente da comissão parlamentar de impeachment que investiga o presidente Cyril Ramaphosa.

O Dr. Bantu Mahlatsi, presidente do United Africans Transformation, expressou as reservas do partido em 6 de junho de 2026. O grupo não duvida da competência de Gana, mas questiona sua neutralidade, uma vez que seu partido faz parte do Governo de Unidade Nacional. Gana foi eleito para liderar a comissão criada para examinar as alegações contra o presidente Cyril Ramaphosa ligadas ao escândalo da fazenda Phala Phala. O United Africans Transformation afirma que a própria composição da comissão levanta questões sobre a integridade do processo. As preocupações foram destacadas em um comunicado e em um vídeo divulgado no mesmo dia.
