CORRUPTION

MR PRESIDENT, WE DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR ANOTHER COSTLY COMMISSION

/ GOOD Statement / By

The President has now announced a judicial commission of inquiry, to be led by Acting Deputy Chief Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga, with terms stretching over three to six months for initial and interim reports.

The residents of Cape Town deserve justice, not delays, deflections, or deals behind closed doors.
