First witness begins testimony in defence of Mkhwebane at impeachment inquiry

CAPE TOWN - The first witness to testify in Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s defence said that her appointment was a game changer for vulnerable South Africans.

She helped him resolve a dispute with the Department of Arts and Culture, which had dragged on for more than a decade.The matter remained unresolved during the tenure of former Public Protector Thuli Madonsela too. "The department was treated with kid gloves at our expense, and this matter dragged on and on without any closure until Advocate Madonsela left."

Nyathela said that he was surprised to hear testimony from a previous witness, an executive in the Public Protector’s office, Ponatshego Mogaladi, that he liked to complain about investigators. "Is there anybody who likes to complain? No. We go to the Public Protector to complain because we have evidence."

That's why ppl are no longer twitting about mkhwebane

Some of the advocates are involved in many cases (literally back-to-back) dealing with totally different (unrelated) issues. When do they conduct research in preparation for these cases? MXM!
