'The public protector has been shown to consistently exhibit a poor understanding of both the law as well as the powers of the public protector.'

His call comes after Pravin Gordhan filed papers at the Pretoria high court on Tuesday to review and set aside Mkhwebane’s adverse findings against him in a report released on Friday.

Her report found that Gordhan had improperly approved the early pension payout for former SA Revenue Service official Ivan Pillay. As part of her remedial action Mkhwebane recommended that President Cyril Ramaphosa takes disciplinary action against Gordhan.Pityana questioned the timing of the release of the report into Gordhan during his tenure as finance minister. “This deliberately disruptive conduct cannot be overlooked and must be urgently investigated,” he said.

Gordhan has claimed that the timing of Mkhwebane's report was “suspicious”, “politically motivated” and enabled “a renewal of the ongoing political campaign against me by proponents of ‘state capture’ and defenders of corruption”. Several of Mkhwebane’s previous reports - covering the apartheid-era state bail-out of Absa, the role of the SA Reserve Bank, the Vrede dairy farm project and former rural development and land reform minister Gugile Nkwinti - have been overturned by the courts.

This thing must just be removed

They must first deal with the CORRUPTION in the BUSA Leadership before they can make such noise.HYPOCRISY is a very dangerous disease.

Yet the cANCer will defend the incompetent to the end!

EFF must be reminded that the public protector's finding in the Estina dairy farm investigation was dismissed by a court of law!!!!! What if the court also dismiss her findings on Gordhan? Gordhan was not find guilty by NPA&Hawks on SARS operations!!!!!

In the Public Protector's pre-cabinet announcement findings, Mkhwebane, has cleared Mabuza and implicated Pravin - and this happens to be exactly what EFF had wished for, how do you like that.
