  • The ANC Youth League calls for a suspension of the impeachment process against President Ramaphosa until the court completes its review of the independent panel's report.

  • The Youth League cautions that rushing the parliamentary process could escalate political fallout and insists on waiting for the judicial review to finish.

  • This ruling enhances Republican advantages nationwide ahead of the midterm elections, following a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision weakening the Voting Rights Act.
