President Cyril Ramaphosa has arrived in the United Kingdom where he is expected to meet with King Charles III. He received a warm welcome at the Stansted Airport in London ahead of the two-day state visit. Ramaphosa is honouring an invite made to him by the late Queen Elizabeth.

His trip also comes at a time he waits to hear about his fate over the Phala Phala scandal.

He said it came from sales of rare cattle and game.

The 30th of November is when the independent panel report will be made public, and his backers argue that there is no case but just hearsay.
