The Justice Minister & VBS: All the “Red Flags”…
Update: 2024-09-03
Description
South Africa's Justice Minister Thembi Simelane is expected to appear before Parliament's Portfolio Committee on Justice and Constitutional development on Friday to be questioned over an alleged link to the VBS Bank scandal. In this interview with BizNews, ActionSA’s Parliamentary caucus leader Athol Trollip lists all the “red flags” in her case - and says: “She needs to be held to account in a court of law. That's the only place that's going to have any credibility.” He also gives an update on in-depth discussions over the coalition future of Tshwane. He gives the assurance that although “the people of Tshwane have found it very difficult working with the DA”, ActionSA is “not going to be pushed into a motion of No Confidence (in DA Mayor Cillier Brink) because the ANC wants to do it today so that they can get their hands on Tshwane”. Trollip also renews his call for lifestyle audits to fight corruption - and gives examples of cases that make it imperative for “a couple of tall trees to be blown over”.
