Reports have surfaced suggesting that the administration pressured Justice Minister Thembi Simelane to retract statements she allegedly made before the ANC Integrity Commission regarding President Cyril Ramaphosa’s involvement in a contentious loan arrangement. Simelane is said to have informed the commission that Ramaphosa had prior knowledge of a R575,600 loan she received from Gundo Wealth Solutions, a firm currently facing corruption allegations. However, Simelane has since publicly denied making any such claims, sparking concerns of political coercion.

Insiders within the ANC claim that Simelane’s appearance before the commission was to clarify her relationship with Gundo Wealth Solutions. During the session, she allegedly indicated that Ramaphosa was aware of the loan, which was used for undisclosed personal expenses before her appointment to his cabinet. Following the meeting, the administration reportedly pressured Simelane to retract her statements and issue a public denial, affirming her commitment to transparency and avoiding any conflicts of interest.

In a public statement released on Monday, Simelane denied ever claiming that Ramaphosa had knowledge of her financial dealings with Gundo Wealth Solutions. She emphasized that the loan had no impact on her official duties, maintaining that her conduct as minister had been honest and accountable.

Despite these public denials, the circumstances surrounding her retraction have raised concerns. Some political observers suggest this incident points to deeper issues within the ANC, including efforts by the administration to suppress discussions of questionable financial dealings. Dr. Mpho Ndlovu, a political analyst, remarked that the alleged pressure on Simelane reflects ongoing struggles within the party, particularly regarding transparency and leadership integrity.

As of now, neither the administration nor ANC spokespeople have commented directly on the matter, leaving the allegations of interference unconfirmed. Opposition parties are calling for an investigation into Simelane’s ties to Gundo Wealth Solutions and for clarity on how the administration intends to address public concerns about the integrity of its leadership.

This controversy adds to the growing questions around the ANC’s internal dynamics, as the party continues to grapple with issues of corruption, accountability, and public trust amid mounting scrutiny.
