MAMPARA OF THE WEEK

Busisiwe Mkhwebane

It’s her we need protection from

Helen Zille’s colonialism tweet was deplorable, and rightly saw her being featured as Mampara at the time. Her party’s failure to censure her proves that in the DA some rogues are more equal than others. Surely there is a place in Orania for someone with that mindset, not the office of the premier of the Western Cape. Somehow Zille’s tweets reached Mkhwebane’s office, so she put a few sentences together and this week released her findings. She found that Zille had violated the executive members’ ethics code. However, the code deals only with the conduct of officials, conflict of interest and maladministration. This is not the first time the public protector has exposed her total lack of understanding of her job. Our MPs must do the right thing and start the process to boot out this Mampara.
