Mkhwebane then approached the Constitutional Court arguing that the high court order was “granted erroneously and is bad in law” and that it will “create unbearable conditions for the effective functioning of the public protector”. The matter is due to be heard on Thursday. In another legal battle, the Pietermaritzburg High Court will deliver its judgment on former president Jacob Zuma’s appeal application on Friday.

James Selfe, the DA’s head of the governance unit, said on Sunday the party will be fielding a capable and experienced candidate, Funzela “Funzi” Ngobeni.
