Mkhwebane Impeachment | I have been reluctant to appear, says Madonsela

JOHANNESBURG - Former Public Protector Thuli Madonsela is finally appearing before Parliamentary proceedings related to her successor Busisiwe Mkhwebane's impeachment inquiry.

This follows several delays due to disagreements with Mkhwebane's legal team.

Madonsela says she has been hesitant to testify because of the focus of her evidence.

"I come before you reluctantly because you have asked me to respond to questions primarily on two cases that have been extensively dealt with by the courts," she said.

"Therefore my reluctance to appear before this committee has nothing to do with a lack of respect for this important pillar of our democracy."
