Cyril Ramaphosa, the president of South Africa, has stated that he will "step aside" if accused of covering up a robbery that occurred on his private farm.

"Should the president be charged he would gladly step aside - should it be the case," presidential spokesman Vincent Magwenya told journalists.

He added: "But as things stand there are no criminal charges against the president. What you have is a series of investigations that he's fully co-operating with and he will continue to do so."
