From persistent problems with President Cyril Ramaphosa’s jet, to a T-rex skeleton nicknamed “Gus” worth R820m, this Sunday, Unread host Graeme Raubenheimer has you covered on some of the week’s biggest stories. But first, the Western Cape High Court is expected to hand down judgment this coming week in Ramaphosa’s application to delay Parliament from processing his possible impeachment over the much-drawn-out Phala Phala saga. In other news, a silent alarm’s been raised over three confirmed radioactive contamination events at Africa’s only nuclear power station, Koeberg, on the West Coast.
