Former Prasa chairperson judge Nana Makhubele on Wednesday night told the state capture commission that she denied every allegation that has been made against her.

Former Prasa chairperson judge Nana Makhubele told the state capture commission on Wednesday that she denied all allegations against her.Former Passenger Rail Agency of SA chairperson judge Nana Makhubele on Wednesday night told the state capture commission that she denied every allegation that has been made against her.

Makhubele stated that she had, in fact, never met Zuma until last year when she saw him at a “breathing distance” in Limpopo during the inauguration of Cogta minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma as the chancellor of the University of Limpopo. “I deny that that I am one of the people who have been found wanting in any report, be it the AG [auditor-general], National Treasury, public protector or any court of law. There is no one who has ever found me guilty or made findings against me for wrongdoing at Prasa,” she charged.

Zondo fired: “Part of what makes your case strange is that here is somebody who wants to be a judge, she has gone to an interview and knows that she has been recommended for appointment as a judge, and this she knows early in October. But around October 19 [she] allows herself to be appointed as chair of a SOE in circumstances where she knows in all probabilities she is going to be appointed to the bench.

Zondo moved to quiz her on allegations that she excluded the Prasa legal department in matters pertaining to settling Siyaya claims.
