Prof Thuli Madonsela described corruption as an inconvenient truth of our time, and said it must be tackled even when those committing the crime were our friends.

This was as she delivered the 2021 Nadine Gordimer Lecture at Wits University on Wednesday night under the title “The Audacity to Speak an Inconvenient Truth”.

Defending the role and importance of the Chapter 9 institutions, one of which was the public protector's office she once held, Madonsela said when these institutions were allowed to do their work there are fewer transgressions. Madonsela said Nadine Gordimer saw her work as a hand-held torch, describing it as a powerful torch against darkness.

'are' our friends

If you are black and become a makoti of Europe, you no longer think straight. You are the one who put SA in this mess with the Zondo commission recommendations.

This evl demon 🤮

We must start with her, she must tell us who paid her to write that state of capture report.

I think to be precise ANC is leading the charts when it comes to corruption, once you talk about this party a reasonable person will think of ANC.

Who's this that addresses a first degree holder a professor? This is not apartheid days when people with elementary universities qualifications unjustly stole their way into titles the never qualified for. Ndlozi, you might call professor, thuli is right down there, far behind.

Start with Cyril

.... One person taking away multi-millions, often billions - all for a flamboyant lifestyle, stunting arnd, flossing - in the process impoverishing the cntry - is too much. It hs to be the greatest good for the greatest majority. So, waste not time wth thugs - annihilate them.

This woman is corrupt

Eh. Not rocket science. Oh maybe it is to decolonised minds.

So far not enough is done to address it. It cn't be tht ppl(individuals, their families, frnds ND hangers-on) steal public money amounting to obscene wealth - at the expense of da cntry- wthout consequences. For my part they have to be guillotined, hanged or publicly executed..
