The Office of the Public Protector says it expects to pay an estimated R7-million this financial year for the legal representation of suspended Public Protector BusisiweMkhwebane in her impeachment hearing.

Cost of Mkhwebane’s hearing:

CEO in the Public Protector’s Office Thandi Sibanyoni says, “This is an expense we didn’t really budget for this. However, we are in talks for the current financial year with the DOJ to also bail us out and it seems as if they might be able to assist. If this process should extend beyond the current financial year, we might need extra funding for that because it’s an expense we didn’t expect and didn’t budget for.

They must pay there's nothing wrong with that, she was not suppose to be suspended anyway

What a load of sh*t a lot of the time the courts have also said she must pay her own fees, between her and Jz looks like they are just gaming the us the taxpayers, isn't it? All sorts of rubbish cases...

She is costing the Nation a fortune, the sooner she vacates that office the better.

Just think how many people's on social grand could have increment.
