Country’s president wins second five-year term as party leader after campaign dogged by Farmgate scandal
The South African president, Cyril Ramaphosa, has been re-elected as leader of the governing African National Congress in a party leadership contest.
Ramaphosa had been widely tipped to secure re-election for a second five-year term, but his campaign was dogged by the Farmgate scandal that broke in June, involving large sums of foreign currency found hidden at his private game farm.
