IRR seeks clarity on Ramaphosa’s 31 Phala Phala questions
24 March 2023
The IRR has sent a follow-up letter to Acting Public Protector Advocate Kholeka Gcaleka requesting that she updates the status of the so-called Phala Phala Report and publishes the answers that President Cyril Ramaphosa gave to the so-called “31 Phala Phala questions”.
These are the questions that Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane put to the president two days before he suspended her on June 9, 2022.
The IRR first wrote to Adv. Gcaleka on 5 December 2022. Despite our request and subsequent PAIA application, the Acting Public Protector’s office has not published the president's answers to Advocate Mkhwebane’s 31 questions.
