Accusations against Manuel a matter of principle - EFF

JOHANNESBURG - The Economic Freedom Fighters argued in court on Tuesday that its MPs took an oath in Parliamentary to raise issues on the appointment of officials at state entities.

The EFF argued the case was not urgent and said Manuel’s reputation had not suffered as a result of its claims. The party said it also wrote to Parliament asking about a possible conflict of interest with Manuel’s involvement in the interviews. The party said at the time that airing the allegations was in the public interest as they emerged just before the elections and South Africans deserved the opportunity to make informed choices.
