Busisiwe Mkhwebane on her way to court yet again

27 May 2019 - 05:08Public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane is to defend another report in court as public enterprise minister Pravin Gordhan and former SA Revenue Service senior officials Ivan Pillay and Oupa Magashule lodge review applications.

In her remedial action, Mkhwebane also ordered that the Sars commissioner set in motion steps to recover the money paid as actuarial deficit or penalty on behalf of Pillay by the revenue service to the Government Employee Pension Fund. Gordhan, Pillay, and Magashule said they would immediately take the report on review in court.

Mkhwebane said she will appeal against the judgment. She said she was still deciding whether to appeal against it in the high court or approach the Constitutional Court for direct access. Gordhan’s lawyer Tebogo Malatji said Mkhwebane had issued a notice in terms of Section 7 of the Public Protector Act, to respond to various grounds on which she intended to make adverse findings against the minister. A response was required within 14 days.

The National Prosecuting Authority withdrew charges linked to the pension payout against Gordhan, Pillay, and Magashule in October 2016. Mkhwebane received a complaint about the matter in November 2016 and only acted on it in February 2018.

EDITORIAL: Please eject public protector Busisiwe MkhwebaneThe public protector has turned an office that was a beacon of light during Thuli Madonsela’s tenure into a national embarrassment I'm really not sure who's cause she's serving any more. She's now useless to the Zupta Cartel who made sure she was recruited, neither Cyril nor any opposition party supports her, and I'm pretty sure her staff are embarrassed to be seen with her. Fire the cow. For what and in whose favour? Time of pandering to the whims of the haves and privileged is gone. Let the PP complete her term and have her replaced then. Until then, she must stay put and do her work unhindered, however unpalatable and disconcerting her investigations. Uyempenga.

JUST IN: Gordhan fights Mkhwebane's report: 'Public Protector has once again erred'Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan plans to institute immediate review proceedings against the Public Protector's report and findings, including the proposed remedial action. This should be another interesting thing to see how it turns out. She could have taken the chance of Zuma leaving office to change, do a Mogoeng by being the exact opposite of what was expected of her but alas Good. Still annoying, her timing is sinister, any less any of her findings which all seem to be with fault. This Pp is not living up to the expectations of her office!

Call for Mkhwebane’s fitness to hold office to be assessed after rulingThe University of Pretoria (UP)’s professor Tinyiko Maluleke said two judgements in two years amounts to egg on her face while University of South Africa (Unisa) professor Lesiba Teffo said she should fall on her sword. Hell yeah, this women is clueless and only got her position due to Zuma / Gupta. These political appointments are always a disaster. I wonder for how much longer she still needs to be 'assessed'? I think she needs to be trained thoroughly about law especially the interpretation and drafting of legislation and life skills, especially assertiveness.
