‘We appeal to the fair-mindedness and fairness of President Cyril Ramaphosa to not act on any of her reports until the Pretoria High Court ruling has been scrutinised and dealt with.’
This comes after Mkhwebane released various reports on Friday, including an adverse finding against Public Enterprises Minister Pravin Gordhan. She recommended that Ramaphosa take appropriate disciplinary action against Gordhan for approving ex-SARS senior official Ivan Pillay’s early retirement. “The Pretoria High Court ruling on the Estina matter that said she failed in her duties under both the Public Protector Act and under the constitution in investigating and reporting on the dairy farm project was a harsh indictment on her. This has called into question her competency and credibility,” the trade union federation said in a statement.
Mkhwebane said an anonymous complaint on Pillay’s pension payout was lodged with her office in November 2016. At the time, Gordhan was finance minister and Oupa Magashula SARS commissioner. Mkhwebane said approval of Pillay’s retirement violated the constitution and amounted to improper conduct that unjustifiably enriched Pillay at the taxpayers’ expense.
Cosatu is also in the curry pockets.
PublicProtector has touch the wrong nerve. I don't understand why are they protecting him. Let him try like all others. If they know he is deceiving.
