Cyril not to blame for his son’s dealings

-

Bosasa is the company that runs “semi-prisons” where illegal immigrants are kept until they are either returned home or remain in SA after their status of residence is cleared.

Inside the institutio­ns the majority of the detained illegal immigrants are from west African states, then the rest are from Asia. But the majority are African.

President Cyril Ramaphosa allegedly claimed that his son, Andile Ramaphosa, “owned a legitimate consultanc­y company that provided services to Bosasa and had asked his son about the payment” from Bosasa.

The officers of the State Security Agency were supposed to be the first to brief the president about his son running a business at Lindela.

Now it is surprising when we learn that Ramaphosa was not briefed by the agency that they have a contract with his son.
