Ramaphosa suspends Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane

[R13...]

Court slams Ramaphosa for 'improper' decision to suspend Mkhwebane after Phala Phala questions | News24

The Western Cape High Court has ruled that President Cyril Ramaphosa’s decision to suspend Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane – after she sent him Phala Phala questions – was invalid and “improper”.

If that's all there is to the decision I think it is a very flawed judgment.

Interesting judgement. My initial read on the timing of the suspension was that it does look suspicious. The timing could however have been contrived to bring this to the head it reached. The Phala Phala case, the complaint to the PP and the announcement by the PP that she's investigating Phala Phala could all have been orchestrated. The judges should surely have realised that Ramaphosa held off on the suspension because the PP wanted him to wait until conclusion on her latest challenge then, he waited and suspended her as soon as she lost that challenge. It is just unfortunate that the timing turned out that way, but that could have been stage managed as said.

It was 100% stage managed.. The whole phala phala thing was the trump card held in the back pocket.

Political warfare born from corruption.

And typical anc

Don't do anything even though it's for the people but as soon as it affects them they do something. Kyk hoe lyk dit nou runjoupussaf.

Same thing with getting zuma out - didn't do a thing until it's too late.

They are all puppets. The problem is we don't know who is the puppet master, or even how many puppet masters there are.

In the recent talk about Zuma's legal woes. Manyi made it public that Zuma's was being catered to by doners.

Zuma’s legal and financial woes go from ‘I’ll have to sell my socks’ to socking it to the NPA and media

Unable to pay the millions of rands owed to the state, former president Jacob Zuma’s foundation is hoping that donors will continue to fund a show trial against his nemeses – the NPA and media.

Asked where he would then find the cash to prosecute Downer and Maughan privately, Manyi replied that such a question was “morally bankrupt” and designed to “take advantage” of Zuma, who had a right to defend himself legally even if he could not personally afford to do so.

Zuma was not directly “getting any money” to fund the private prosecution, he said. It was rather a matter of “who, this time around, was willing to assist” with funding.

And that money would not go to or through Zuma or his foundation, although it would be in Zuma’s name, he said. It would go “straight to where it was needed”. As an example, the security deposit needed for the private prosecution would be paid directly to the court by “whoever [the donor] was”, said Manyi.

I am sure that it is broadly applicable. Zuma can't show that he has assets (they claim Nklanda and all its belongings belong to the Ingonyama Trust, and they owe debt to the Trust and the Trust already made it public that they have dibs, but won't take it. A technicality... Neither can Zuma show that he has liquidity.

Somebody is keeping Zuma and company alive, whether it is stashes being channelled or the connected, in whatever capacity, being the provider. It may even be the ANC themselves, who knows?

She will win in KZN.

I mean the Doektator of the ANC.

We need to speed up this slow boil and demise of the ANC.

 

[ToxicBunny]

She will win in KZN.

In all honesty, even that I'm not 100% sure of.. even with Jacobs endorsement its not a sure bet. She will definitely give it a good run, but I think even with Jacobs endorsement the RET faction is too fractured to rally behind a single person.

NDZ will probably have more bribe money than CR, that's what wins elections.

I think there could be some who are wondering why they should always be supporting uBaba's candidate, KZN leadership has yet not endorsed her so you could be right. I have a feeling they might just let it go and push for the deputy president position, even surprise everyone by voting for Dabede and hoping to use him for their agenda.

Where was this bribe money in 2017 when her man had all the keys to the state money?
