Maseru - Deputy president Cyril Ramaphosa is expected to make a major announcement in an hour's time relating to his facilitation efforts in Lesotho.

 Ramaphosa's spokesman Ronnie Mamoepa says the announcement will be made at a media briefing in Maseru at 14:00. According to Mamoepa, Ramaphosa is expected to be joined by local leaders of political parties as well as SADC deputy executive secretary, Themba Mhlongo.
