Ramaphosa Acts — But Is It Too Little, Too Late?

South Africa has no shortage of commissions, reports, or shocking revelations — but accountability remains elusive.

They debate President Cyril Ramaphosa’s response, question whether decisive leadership is finally emerging, and ask the harder question many South Africans are already asking: if we know who is responsible, why does justice still feel so far away?
