South Africa’s deputy president admits to cheating on his wife

    A huge scandal has hit South Africa’s Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa who is vying to replace President Jacob Zuma.

   Deputy President Cyril has admitted to having an extramarital affair after details of his alleged affairs with as many as eight women were splashed on Sunday newspapers in South Africa today.  This is also coming after the business man turned politician failed to gag media from publishing the story in a late night urgent court application.
   The Sunday Independent newspaper published a front page article alleging they had details of  relationships between Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa – who is married with children – and approximately eight women. The newspaper shared private details, such as the fact that one of the women had suffered a miscarriage.

Read some of the details below according to iol.co.za:  Documents seen by the paper reveal how Ramaphosa holds three alternative e-mail accounts under fake names, which he uses to communicate with the women. The e-mails go by the names of Mambo Dimbanyika, Singo Maberemisa and Mambo Velelambeu. Some of the extra-marital relationships appear to have lasted for years, while other are more recent.

   The documents state how one of the women, with whom Ramaphosa has had a relationship for years, had miscarried his baby. While the woman, who Ramaphosa addressed as “Mukhethwa” (The Chosen One) confirmed having had a romantic relationship with Ramaphosa, she claimed it ended “some time ago”.

   However, the e-mails tell a different story. They reveal the pair were communicating even this year. In virtually all her communication with Ramaphosa, the woman sounds like a broken-hearted and emotionally battered person who is battling to quit the relationship. She accused Ramaphosa of not caring for her and loving her during their entire 10-year-long relationship. The woman confirmed she had a miscarriage, but denied Ramaphosa was the father. Again, communications between the pair tell a different tale.

   In one of the e-mails she asks Ramaphosa whether losing her baby was a sad moment or relief.
She also asked the deputy president what he would have done if the pregnancy was successful but with complications during delivery. She asks Ramaphosa whether he would have saved the baby or her. The woman also asked Ramaphosa why he had bought her a ring. In his response, Ramaphosa said he would prefer to respond to the woman’s questions on “a face-to-face basis”.Asked if she had ever received any financial support from Ramaphosa, the woman told The Sunday Independent: “Mr Ramaphosa never took care of me financially during our relationship.

   “I have always been independent. “However, I now have a strictly business relationship with Mr Ramaphosa, where I provide property development management and quantity surveying services to all his properties in Limpopo, Gauteng and the Western Cape, for which my company is being paid.”
Again, communication between the pair shows the woman sent Ramaphosa a list of items including a television set, couch, and tool storage house. In his response, Ramaphosa said he would transfer R50 000 into the woman’s account. The woman later wrote to him confirming having received a notification from her bank about a cash deposit.
