Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo has applied to court to extend the term of the state capture inquiry, saying if he does not get an extension it would “render useless” the work of the commission so far.

He has also said he is likely to narrow the scope of the commission’s work — to the original parameters set by former public protector Thuli Madonsela in her State of Capture report — and refer the rest to other investigative bodies.

There are as many as 30 state-owned enterprises, along with 29 national departments, 90 or so provincial departments and 200 municipal departments. it would need “probably not less than four years to complete its mandate in terms of its terms of reference.” This would not mean that these issues would not be investigated, said Zondo. “It will only mean that they will be investigated by another forum.”

facts or identifying steps that should be taken on a specific issue. In that sense, the work of a commission is, by its nature, always preliminary.

TembekaNgcukai1 Just like the Nhlapo Commission and the TRC.

TembekaNgcukai1 Another costly 'arms'deal' trajectory..... Satafrika

our tax money🙆🏿‍♂️🙆🏿‍♂️🙆🏿‍♂️

Tell SA what it has cost so far, and we are yet to see any arrests and convictions. Is this for nought like Eskom, SAA, SABC etc.

Indeed it need more time to deal with corrupt officials who have deceive the end of Justice

For what really,Zondo?This is was useless move in the first place.

I think we'd all agree it's a waste of money already.

Zondo doesn't want accept the fact that tenders come and go. Time to go rest old man.

😭😭

What a joke

The name should be changed to 'HEARSAY COMMISSION OF INQUIRY '....Two years of connecting the dots!

Its already a waste of money. If there is any evidence of wrongdoing/corruption/crime, the NPA should just prosecute🤷🏾‍♀️

It useless vele with or without the extension

Sesiyabhedelwa ke manje

Garbage, State Capture sokunuka WMC captured the state long time

I believe him. The extent of the corruption allegations on many sectors requires time. But it would be nice had we have prosecution s en route

This is madness. So this Kangaroo court can run up to the next elections mos😏😏

If it was not useless Vytjie Mentor should have been imprisoned by now

I see R300million going to R500 million yet very few arrests will take place anyway

Give it to him! He has a better view of where things are! NPA should now come to the party!

And no BLF pro Zuma to interdict the application

He should really speed up things and not entertain frivolous things in court and he is too leniant as a judge. The public deserve a speedy conclusion and not another gap stopper.

TembekaNgcukai1 The commission dismally failed to prove state capture by the Gupta family nor Jacob Zuma. It should just be a case closed, gather all information it has acquired thus far and test it in a court of law

How much is he getting paid for his appearance per day here?

This man has no patriotism in him whatsoever.

What a waste of state money

DCJ zondon must atleast realize preliminary report if the extension is until after June

TembekaNgcukai1 So far he has done nothing in his own words and it's all about getting more money

My problem with d whole thing it is not to unearth what has really troubled up the country's economy in its totality but rather to be made believe that state capture started now under certain admistration,though the same time not putting a blind eye on the roles played by gupta

How much is he getting per day by the way R150K?

They say 'shut down' 😂😂😂 StateCaptureCom you've got the mojo

TembekaNgcukai1 This thing is blowing our tax money and later no one will prosecuted like all the commission we had .

Useless Zondo

Zondo is wasting money

Wasteful Expenditure. Close it!!

TembekaNgcukai1 It's enough! There can be phase two if phase one has been properly implemented. For now let him rap up.

TembekaNgcukai1 Tax payers money is wasted here.

He spent most of the time on labour disputes and village gossip

Shutit down

After 2 years and no arrests or prosecutions, and finally when Zuma gets to have his say he grunts and giggles and shrugs off all responsibility smuggly... and now an extension? Smells like gravy and it sounds like a train... 0 credibility 👀

The country is bleeding 🩸 where the money 💵 comes from he must finish, as country we waiting for the outcomes and recommendations 🤔

Can we at least get a report up to so far.

TembekaNgcukai1 Who benefits from this thing?

BulelaniPhillip More money...

He mean this thing is useless so far until he get extension

Wasteful expenditure

TembekaNgcukai1 Pshh🙄

He must call the implicated ones now. Nomvula, Gwede, Koko, Brian, Mthi, ACE etc. The evidence is there for them to answer.

No no no no he must go he is biased he must bloody go

POLITICAL WEEK AHEAD: Pressure mounts for Jacob Zuma to appear before Zondo commissionState-capture inquiry is also expected to hear evidence on law-enforcement agencies _AfricanSoil look Why still bother with this Zondo Commission? it’s only just flogging a dead horse and wasting tax payer moneys in the process. How much real evidence is still remaining? Surely over time evidence gets eroded and shrinkage starts to occur.
