Johannesburg - Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Thursday government agencies should not wage war against each other, in reference to a police investigation of Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan.

Gordhan is facing an investigation over a suspected surveillance unit set up years ago when he was in charge of the tax service.

Speaking at a funeral service Reverend Makhenkesi Stofile in Alice in the Eastern Cape, Ramaphosa said: “The minister of finance is today almost facing what could be arrest. It's something that should concern us.”
