World spotlight on ANC plot to overthrow Ramaphosa – FT

EDINBURGH — International investors have been watching developments in South Africa closely following revelations that global banks facilitated money laundering on an industrial scale for the Gupta and Zuma families and friends. Cyril Ramaphosa has been courting the media, too, since he became President early this year. He has granted interviews to journalists elsewhere in the world and instructed his spin doctors to place an opinion piece in the London-headquartered Financial Times. It is therefore not surprising that it hasn't taken long for word to get out that there is a plot to unseat Ramaphosa. The FT reports on the details, noting that President Ramaphosa has sent out a warning to his ANC enemies. – Jackie Cameron
