Ramaphosa Shuns Calls to Quit as Lawmakers Ready Probe

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said he would contest a report that criticized his handling of a robbery at his farm in 2020 after a ruling by the nation’s top court resurrected the scandal, and rejected calls to stand down.

“I will not resign,” he said during a televised address on Monday. “To do so would be to give credence to a panel report that unfortunately has grave flaws.”
