The state attorney’s stance suggests they think the president has a good chance of persuading the high court to stay public protector’s remedial action

President Cyril Ramaphosa’s lawyers have urged public protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane to back out of her increasingly heated legal battle with the head of state over her demand that he take disciplinary action against public enterprises minister Pravin Gordhan — or face the possibility of yet another adverse legal costs order against her office.

Mkhwebane was last week ordered by the Constitutional Court to personally pay 15% of the Reserve Bank’s legal costs in its battle to overturn her report on the apartheid-era bailout given to Bankorp. She is facing a possible adverse costs order against her over her invalid investigation into the Gupta-linked Estina dairy farm scam, and Gordhan is also seeking a personal costs order against her in his current legal challenges to her SA Revenue Service “rogue unit” and Pillay reports.

In a way this lawyer's are threatening the future public protectors neh

CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA is bullying PublicProtector AdvBMkhwebane dictator tendencies

That's why CJ was against that ruling of ConCourt, now they are busy threatening her with personal costs mxm...

Threatening the public protector won't do the country any good.

They are threatening her you racist trashy journalism.

We are not concerned about legal costs, that should never worry the PP AdvBMkhwebane . Never let them scare you, we will defeat them the truth.

This is threats now !

This is a classic case of Blackmail.... now the President has opted to blackmailing the PP because they have the financial muscle and the Rich on their side...

Is it a she is been threatened by the Cyril legal team surely with instructions from Cyril.

Sorry to be off topic. Who still subscribe to newspapers websites while social media gives you more, even the so called big media houses report on what is on social media.

A stumble may prevent a fall.

They try to silence her lol we are watching them closely their mission will be unsuccessful

She has no power to continue with this case.our public protector is powerless

Let her pay so it be a new trend for all future PPs.

She must not giv up, this corrupt President wanted to intimated our PP, with money or no money if she perish let be🔥🔥

Zupta bail out, or Juju

Meanwhile the unemployment rate is increasing.

Bullying! At least the PP can afford some of the costs. Imagine if it was a Gogo Dlamini taking on the mighty Buffalo. No wonder why the Marikana widows just let it go.

Bring it on,de people shall donate😳😳

Hhaibo , that a threat now. Go for it PP , we will pay your cost. Im contributing R150.00 monthly until they remove you physically.

Ramaphosa's lawyers are scared that Mkwebane has a strong case and are therefore threatening her with personal costs!

Let BusisiweMkhwebane learn a lesson that if you wish to poke the hornets nest, don't cry when you get bitten. It's not a secret anymore that PublicProtector was planted there to reverse-osmosis prosecutions at the commands of her hegemony financiers. Corruption is a sickness.

Gloves are off now, time to take out the popcorn.

Voting for Baffalo is bringing back apartheid.. No we aRE VOTING ANC... IS THIS ANC

Public Protector is now being intimidated. That was reason for awarding costs against her. The CONCOURT agreed. Do we need the CONCOURT? I don't think we need the CONCOURT. WE NEED PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY. THROW OUT THE CONCOURT URGENTLY. IT PROTECTS APARTHEID BENEFICIARIES.

He, Ramaphosa is fucking up our democracy. What kind of msunery is this.

CyrilRamaphosa instead of assisting the chapter 9 institution as required by the Constitution is here threatening it. What happened to his oath?

marinavanzyl What type of democracy is this? This is worse...

This is fake news, Ramaphosa won’t do that. He knows it himself what this means

That’s intimidation... let her do her work..

If she lost, she must be made to pay again;Public reps should know the implications of public funds wasteful expenditure.

Is the judiciary really in your pocket?

Intimidation 😂😂😂😂😂

Who pays for Cyril's costs? Ska tlo re tena lena maan

The next judge may want to look at the record of the PP in wasting everyone's time and make her pay all legal costs, not just 15% of.

OneNation70290 Y are you feeling for her, because you wanted her died bo satan bana ba baloi
