Abstract
On 19 December 2022, South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa was re-elected for a second five-year term as leader of the ruling African National Congress. This enhanced his political standing at the end of a tumultuous year in which he faced serious charges of corruption and presided over governance failures and the worsening of economic conditions. His increased level of influence over party affairs will serve as a double-edged sword ahead of the 2024 general election because it removes one of his main excuses for underachievement, namely that his position had been so fragile that he was compelled to delay the implementation of difficult reforms.
