As parliament finds itself faced with new controversies, it has become clear that its legal processes need closer inspection
After more than 1700 days in office, parliament struck a final blow to Adv Busisiwe Mkhwebane as public protector yesterday, bringing to an end her tumultuous tenure best known for scathing court judgments overturning her investigation reports.
The committee said the complaint by Busisiwe Mkhwebane and her husband David Skosana that Dyantyi contravened the ethics code was unfounded.
The Section 194 committee probing suspended public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s fitness to hold office has made a number of scathing findings and on Sunday agreed that she handled the investigation into CR17 in an incompetent manner.
Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s latest call follows allegations by Mkhwebane of bribery against chairperson, Richard Dyantyi, and other senior African National Congress (ANC) MPs to influence the outcome of the inquiry.
