South Africa's president needs to show more urgency in stopping rogue spies
The parliament of South Africa’s oversight committee on intelligence recently tabled its 2019/2020 annual report. The engrossing and depressing read documents the failings of the country’s spy agencies in unflinching detail. If not addressed, these failings may leave the country exposed to even more serious crime and national security threats than it has faced already. The spy agencies were weakened during former president Jacob Zuma’s term. The report shows that these weaknesses have not been addressed adequately under President Cyril Ramaphosa.
