Axed Public Protector senior executive Basani Baloyi to challenge dismissal in court | azarrahk

The former chief operating officer of Public Protector South Africa , Basani Baloyi, will challenge her dismissal in court, according to her attorney Eric Mabuza."We are challenging [the matter] in court, it is completely unlawful," he added.

In a letter penned by the Public Protector's chief executive, Vussy Mahlangu, which News24 has seen, Baloyi was deemed unsuitable for the position of chief operating officer, lacking the required skills and conduct, Mahlangu said in the letter that the Public Protector could not employ Baloyi on a permanent basis, adding that if she wished to appeal the decision, she should do so directly to Mkhwebane.

He added:"Accordingly, our client cannot be expected to appeal or make representations on something which is a nullity."
