Newsletter| We have a Public Protector who has not only eroded the standing of the office, but who seems hellbent on using it to protect the powerful instead of the marginalised, and who wants to make sure corruption is not bitten, writes Mondli Makhanya
In her ruling in the case between the Public Protector and the DA, Judge Ronel Tolmay quoted the Constitutional Court’s seminal judgment on the Nkandla matter.
“For this reason, the fathers and mothers of our Constitution conceived of a way to give even to the poor and marginalised a voice, and teeth that would bite corruption and abuse excruciatingly.” Although Zuma’s fingerprints were not at the scene, they may as well have been there because it was his crew that pulled off the heist before depositing the money into a vault in Saxonwold.
This despite DA leader Mmusi Maimane giving her the witnesses on a silver platter, complete with names and phone numbers. He even introduced her team to their leadership.
