Eastern Cape Premier Oscar Mabuyane has filed a motion with the high court asking that the court order the Hawks to stop investigating him, calling the probe unconstitutional, unlawful and a political witch hunt that is being influenced by Ace Magashule.

has filed a motion with the Eastern Cape high court in Bhisho asking that the court order the Hawks to stop investigating him, calling the probe unconstitutional, unlawful and a political witch hunt that is being influenced by suspended ANC secretary general Ace Magashule.

“There are no reasons the investigation should be driven from the Free State rather than the Eastern Cape, where the alleged offences are said to have emanated from. I have been informed by a confidential source, whom I have no reason to disbelieve, that certain political elements within the ANC who are opposed to my leadership are behind the investigation and have tried to influence the DPCI.

Mabuyane argues that because he is an ally of President Cyril Ramaphosa, Magashule was waging a counter-campaign against him. “I indicated that it was not a coincidence that the case was being investigated by the DPCI Free State office after Mr Magashule, who was the premier of the Free State, had made allegations against me.” released a report that found the Eastern Cape government, working with the Mbizana local municipality, misused R3.3-million allocated for the memorial service and other celebratory events to honour Winnie Madikizela-Mandela in April 2018.

Mabuyane argues that the Hawks have labelled him a suspect, which affords him the right to be provided with a factual basis about why he is being investigated.

Did Oscar take money?yes he did..the rest is just a side show

Why he's stopping investigation by hawks if hes innocent?

Kick out Jacob Zuma, Ace Magashule and Oscar Mabuyane from the ANC for corruption

Why is he not stepping aside and why are the ANC top six quite about this

Does dis exempt him from wrongdoing just becos politics r play? Let us deal with facts, which in this case point to the Premier having received money. This is a fact. Can we just forget ACE for a moment, we want to know, did he benefit UNDULY?

🤣🤣🤣 the very suspended Ace Magashule....now has power to instruct Hawks. South Africa is a comedy movie I tell you
