The DA will once again attempt to have Busisiwe Mkhwebane removed as public protector.
The DA’s latest request to have her removed follows a damning judgment by the High Court in Pretoria on Monday, which reviewed and set aside Mkhwebane’s report on the Gupta-linked Vrede dairy farm project and declared it unconstitutional and invalid. This was in reference to her handling of the probe into the apartheid-era loan the Reserve Bank gave to Bankorp, which is now part of Absa. That report was reviewed and set aside, and it was found that the public protector did not understand her job.
“Over the past three years, Mkhwebane compromised the integrity of the office of the public protector by showing a poor understanding of both the law as well as of her own powers. In addition to this, she has also brought the independence of her office into question,” Steenhuisen said.
It’s only fair
They can remove her. There won't be any loss and she won't be missed.
They won't SUCCEED
If Ramaphosa can't, or more likely won't, then someone else has to get the ball rolling. I approve.
