In case you missed it: Ramaphosa on resignation | ‘Hilton Predator’ arrested | ActionSA starts coalition talks with ANC and EFF

President Cyril Ramaphosa has rejected rumors about his resignation following the ANC's poor performance in the 2026 local government elections. Meanwhile, a KwaZulu-Natal man, known as the "Hilton Predator," was arrested on Monday morning in connection with sexual abuse allegations spanning nearly 20 years, including claims of offenses involving minors.

The police are expected to present the accused before Pietermaritzburg Magistrate's Court later in the day. In addition, ActionSA has begun coalition talks with the ANC and the EFF, as the local government elections concluded on Sunday. ActionSA aims to leverage its council seats to influence the leadership of Johannesburg, Tshwane, and Ekurhuleni, while also waiting for meeting dates with the DA, MK party, and other political parties.
