SADC renews Ramaphosa’s mandate to facilitate peace in Lesotho

The Presidency‚ in response to media queries‚ reiterated on Sunday that the SADC Double Troika Summit held in Pretoria on Friday had reappointed Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa to continue with his facilitation work for peace and stability in Lesotho. This followed the killing of former Lesotho army chief Lieutenant-General Maaparankoe Mahao last week and the fleeing of several opposition leaders from the neighbouring country to South Africa‚ it said.
