Ramaphosa fine
Speaking to The Citizen, Ramaphosa’s spokesperson Vincent Magwenya said there’s no truth to the rumours to the president’s ill health.
“A malicious rumour has been doing the rounds about the President’s health and that he has been hospitalised.
“I spoke to him this morning, the President is fine, he was never hospitalised, and there was no emergency. He attended a meeting and decided to spend the rest of the day at home ahead of a busy week,” Magwenya said.
