Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader, Julius Malema says the timing of the suspension of Public Protector Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane by President Cyril Ramaphosa is questionable.

Malema says the reason why the President suspended the Mkhwebane is because, he is avoiding the 31 questions that he had to answer, regarding the break in at his Phala Phala farm in Limpopo.

“Ramaphosa is still obliged to answer all the questions given to him, because the executive ethics code obliges him to respond to questions from the Public Protector, truthfully and timeously,” he adds.”Meanwhile, former South African Revenue Service executive Johann van Loggerenberg accused Mkhwebane of being dishonest and inaccurate in her 2019 report about the so-called rogue unit.

The main complaint by Van Loggerenberg is that Mkhwebane did not give him an opportunity to respond when she compiled her 2019 report about a high level investigations consisting of the most dedicated and skilled executives at SARS who conducted sensitive tax investigations.Van Loggerenberg explains: “I believe that the fact that I have put before this committee suggests that Ms Mkhwebane was not honesty and factual in respect of case number 48529 of 2019.

Responding to a question from Advocate Dali Mpofu on whether he wants the suspended Public Protector to be impeached, Van Loggerenberg said that is not his call to make, it is for the committee to decide.
