Quick Glance: Has the Phala Phala fiasco helped Mantashe gain favor with Ramaphosa?
- After assisting the president during difficult times, Gwede Mantashe may become Cyril Ramaphosa's de facto prime minister.
- Despite calls for him to step aside and hang up his boots earlier this year, Mantashe has definitely established his place in Ramaphosa's camp.
- Many ANC leaders in attendance, including treasurer general Paul Mashatile, advised Ramaphosa not to come and deliver the concluding address.
- However, Mantashe detected a disturbance in the force.
- Mantashe then advised Ramaphosa not to attend a confrontational ANC national executive committee meeting, where some were baying for the president's blood.

Quick Glance: PHALA PHALA OP-ED: Why President Cyril Ramaphosa should not quit despite a defective report and hazardous precedents
- The regulations state that "SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE of a serious violation of the law or serious misconduct" is required (as opposed to the process in the case of the Public Protector's impeachment, where the rules clearly state "prima facie").
- In my opinion, "sufficient evidence" is a more stringent standard than "prima facie evidence."
- The panel effectively states in paragraph 71 of the report that it lacks the authority to assess the truth of the evidence or, as a result, make any definitive judgments against the President, because that is the job of the complete impeachment process in Parliament.
