On Thursday, Vusumuzi Ngobe kaNkosi told the Judicial Service Commission that he didn’t know that the institution he got his PhD from wasn’t accredited.

Commissioner Vusumuzi Xaba asked Ngobe kaNkosi whether he was aware that the Atlantic International University was not accredited by the United States Secretary of Education.Commissioners pressed Ngobe kaNkosi on this issue, with commissioner Gratitude Magwanishe stating that a simple Google search, “which took me less than two minutes”, informed him that the institution wasn’t recognised by the US education authorities.

When asked whether she’d make a good judge at such a young age, Naudé-Odendaal said that although it might be viewed as “quite extraordinary” to appoint someone her age as a judge, it wasn’t unusual. She used Zondo and Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga as examples. Zondo became a judge at the age of 37, while Madlanga became a judge when he was 34.

Commenting on this, Holland-Müter said: “My attitude as either a magistrate or judge is that you will have to apply justice to every person before the court without being influenced by race or gender. I am adamant that I wasn’t influenced by the pre-constitutional situation. My attitude is you need to be fair to each person.”

“I was in Witbank and it had three district courts. You had to obtain a registered court date and then an application for bail. I was never involved in such an application,” said Holland-Müter.The JSC’s criteria for considering candidates for vacancies need to look at how the candidate’s appointment will help reflect the gender and racial component of the country.

Tshidada said: “When you’ve made up your mind on your desire to serve, you never look back. Since 2019, whenever I get a call from the Judge President, I would stand up and drop everything and go serve.”
