Acting Public Protector Kholeka Gcaleka says she will not succumb to political pressure to rush her investigations into the Phala Phala saga. Her office has come under fire for allegedly dragging its feet on the matter. PhalaPhalaFarmGate

Earlier this year, some opposition parties marched to the office in Pretoria after accusing Gcaleka of contravening the Executive Members Ethics Act over her failure to release the report within 30 days of former State Security Agency Director-GeneralFraser stated the charges emanate from the theft of over $4 million by robbers in February 2020, in collusion with a domestic worker, at the President’s Phala Phala farm in Waterberg, Limpopo.

Fraser alleges that Ramaphosa was involved in defeating the ends of justice, kidnapping suspects, interrogating and bribing them and thereafter concealing the crime from the police. Speaking on the sidelines of the International Anti-Corruption Day in Pretoria Gcaleka said: “Our investigations are at an advanced stage. We are in a process now where we are assessing the evidence that is before us and doing a preliminary draft not for the release but for either a discretionary notice or a Section 79 in the instance where we make adverse findings.

Good girl.... doesn't want Mkhwebane route being pushed to make mistakes by politicians for their wicked agendas then pay the price

What political pressure, haai bo!!!

We are not waiting for her report. She will release it to herself. We know what happened in PhalaPhala

Who is she serving. Are political parties not representing the public. What judgement criteria is she using. Is she not becoming political herself.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 This one thou🤔

She is captured obviously

She is captured obviously

Maybe it's time for that shoplifting drunkard to pen the real PRESIDENT'S KEEPERS: Those who keep CyrilRamaphosa in power and out of jail. The acting PublicProtector GwedeMantashe1 MbalulaFikile NPA_Prosecutes SundayTimesZA enca mailandguardian RonaldLamola ConCourtSA

Thina ke senzeni, ngale ngane engena future?...

THIS is a strong black woman! Respect Ma’am🙏🏻

Mbolodo

She's captured by cyril. What do you expect

Tsek!

Very useless that one. She's a President Protector... Not Public Protector. How many public cases have she done since entering that PP's office? Or she's just there on a political deployment to protect the president scandals.

ooooohahaha = she has no intension to finish it anyway = she already said it would take at least 3 years = my cat can do it in a day

No one actually cares about that report anymore PublicProtector it will not do anything anymore. She can wipe her ass with it

Failure doesn't always need an excuse

This popayi must go to hell 🤡!

Umgodoyi

Then we should look at who lodged a complaint at PublicProtector and who's putting pressure if it's not the same people!!

Come interview for that position she will have forgotten her stand, shame,she is not representing women well so that we support them for top positions,let her do things timeously

Kophela sofana

Ayi lonake

Smart woman right there.

KhofuMoahloli Don't succumb PP! Dont!

Wena you are failed experiment

She’s just coordinating it with myanc Nasrec Conference programme

Why am i not surprised?

She should be given a space to do her job.

Wiysfebe wena

Very strong character. Not like her predecessor who appeared to have failed dismally.

Good sisKholeka

Beauty with brains

The 'public' does not like her.

She's going to be part of 'the real state capture' enquiry after Ramaphosa's term together with Zondo. They'll be exposed for protecting a corrupt president.

Buyer declared dollars on arrival..Exchanged money with farm worker..Worker hid money in furniture away from other workers..Money is stolen..CR was away & on hearing of the theft report to policeman who's also his protector..question who's suppose to report worker or president?

Is that not obvious..succumbing to her means covering for Ramaphosa

Usho lesduphunga sentombazane kababu gcaleka the president protector icarrer yakhe isiphelile loyo mayehamba ubig nose naye gaan uit

I doubt if she still bzy with investigation

Thank you for returning intergrity of that office Advocate Kholeka. What a woman!!

Definitely correct, she must not sell her soul. She must not weaponize that office to fight political battles.

Take as much time as you need. JZ has taken 15 years. Relax do it in your own time. Anyway, there is not much to Phala Phala, other than a starved media and supporters of a has been JZ. No fireworks here.

We will remove her by force lonotolotyi

Useful Rodent!!!!

In short i will not investigate the President.. period

I support this fake adv because ANC brought us this kind of pple they did have the chance to correct everything but they choose to loot and select this kind of pple to protect them,whites have since 1993 when south africa was made to have 2 president serving at the same time.

Yes you go girl 💃💃

She will not succumb to pressure to not defend Cyril she means

Just wonder how much u wr paid, every work or task has time lines.

So just blue-tick the nation that has been wanting answers for this since it happened🤔

🙏👌

Useless lento

🤣🤣🤣

Our next PP not corrupt and not buyers.

Take your time

Useless this one

Akasale ayekela there's nothing technical about this. We already have it from Grade R class.

We don't need her

Take your time Public Protector, Don't be intimidated by thugs.

She is useless

Someone must open a case against this Gcaleka person, managing the Public Protector's office on behalf of Cyril Ramaphosa. We can not have constitutional institution that works on reported cases for ever.

No fool who's selfish interest in the report is the outcome of Nasrec results should sway you to do your work differently. Gogo slay queen is yet to account to Parliament portfolio committee and she refuses. Dimaumau. Tsek. Some not rushing to see their day in court. Tsek

Mxm

She is useless

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

She will hold on to it until cyril gets his second term, then it gets edited accordingly

It's not pressure she is just useless, suppose to do her job simple .

There is absolutely NO political pressure but a PUBLIC OUTCRY instead... poor thing can't even distinguish between the two, that's how blinded she is.

She is not investing anything, she's just waiting for other people to do, what she's supposed to do. Make decisions to get rid of Ramaphosa. Unethical for someone in her position.

What does she mean RUSH 😳

Acting President Protector

'Rush' warra joke 😂

She shouldn't be but strictly stick to what's required & expected of PublicProtector without fear favor prejudice unlike her predecessor whom she is acting on her behalf while she AdvBMkhwebane remains suspend she shouldn't be returned there as she has been a liability ‼️‼️‼️‼️

She failed to do they job s simple thing she supposed to do they leave it to the parliament these issue cz she not public protector is a Phala Phala Dollar protector

She should just keep quiet if it is not so important to consider a release a preliminary report, she knows how important it is to release this report,

This one thinks she the best thing ever happened to SA. Working at a slow pace is laziness

What she actually thinks we are fools for is that sitting on the report and keeping it the longest time under her bum is to yield to political pressure. Her act of omission is brazenly to advance the interest of Stellenbosch. Shame on her. She is so young to be this corrupt.

Useless Kholeka her Ramaphosa favouritism is blinding her so advance stage my foot

But she's dealing with a political case

Miss Incompetence.

She can take 10cyears to investigate investigation is now useless

She is useless this one ay

Phakama Kholeka bakubone

She is a far better than the suspended one who botched just about every report she handled. She needs to stay right where she is doing a proper job.

She's a coward.

She’s an epic disgrace for that office.

Mara the matter must be solved before the 16th.

She has succumb to bribes. Useless and politically influenced by money launderer.

Public Pressure is now called Political pressure....😅

That intern calling itself Acting PP is clearly not fit for the job.

This one useless

This micky-mouse girl was appointed by tsotsi Ramaphosa himself.

She's talking rubbish

She should serve the public and release those answers

This one has integrity at all, she is there to weaken the office.

😅😂🤣

Tell her we've moved on,the mayter is now in parliament and with the courts.Her report as the President's Protector (PP) is now completely IRRELEVANT to us.We are dealing with the PhalaPhalaFarmGateCriminal on our own.

That woman is a failure

Someone's puppet

Ma_LoJ It is not about political pressure but about her failing to comply to what it is expected from the office

Tell her not to waste taxpayers money, she can stop that fake investigation. A former concourt judge president has done an investigation in 1 month. She studied law at the driving school hence she strugles .

She must vacate her so claim office

She must stand firm sana

Mxm🚮

Gcaleka is useless, dirty hungry hypocrite, evil and the list is endless 💩🤡

She will be removed from that office if she become Ramaphosa protector that office is not for Ramaphosa and I she should be reminded about that

She can keep it and shove it in her ass🤣🤣
