Among the Richest politicians in South Africa are Cyril Ramaphosa with a net worth of $450 million, followed by Tokyo Sexwale with a net worth of $200 million among others listed below<\/strong><\/p>\n

Politics in South Africa has been one of the most evolved in the entire African continent, looking at how much it has changed since the end of apartheid<\/a>. Apart from the struggle for the control of power that naturally remained at the center of the country’s politics, there has also been an overwhelming struggle to control wealth and resources by groups, individuals, and, needless to say, politicians. This has raised the torchlight on who could be the richest politicians in South Africa.<\/p>\n

The annual salary of the president of South Africa is put at $265,020 for the highest political office holder in the country. This is a good steep shy of the $400,000 that the US president takes home. However, politicians in the country have still managed to make a significant fortune for themselves, mostly through their involvement in businesses alongside their political involvement. While some politicians have always been businessmen in the country, some left politics for business, and others crossed the other way.<\/p>\n
