Cyril Ramaphosa

The two-day visit sees Charles finally presiding over proceedings after decades playing a supporting role to his mother, Elizabeth II, who died in September.

Ramaphosa was last in London for the state funeral of the queen at Westminster Abbey in September.

At least 22 young people, some of them as young as 13, were found dead inside a popular at a night club in the city of East London, South Africa.

The armed forces were sending 2,500 soldiers to help the overwhelmed police.

South Africa's Special Investigating Unit (SIU) is investigating over 160 companies.

As many as 30 ministerial changes were announced by South Africa's new president, Cyril Ramaphosa.

Ramaphosa was the only candidate nominated for election in the parliament after two opposition parties said they would not participate.

Jacob Zuma has quit as president of South Africa. He has been embroiled in a rape trial, corruption, an arms deal, using public money for his home and association with the Guptas.

Agents from the Hawks, an elite police investigative unit, entered the compound of the Gupta family in an affluent Johannesburg neighbourhood.

If Zuma rejects any instruction from his own party to resign, the matter could go to parliament for a vote on a motion of no confidence.

The ruling party's senior figures hold emergency meeting with the South African president urging him to resign.

The two clear front-runners are Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa and Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, former chair of the African Union Commission and Zuma's ex-wife.

Zuma is finishing his second and final term as ANC leader, and whoever follows him will likely be elected South Africa's next president in 2019.
