Dr Khoza will be protected, thankfully, not too late
18 July 2017
The DA welcomes the response from the Speaker of the National Assembly, Baleka Mbete, to our calls to provide Dr Makhosi Khoza the protection she and her family need.
The Speaker did, however, take almost three months after first learning of these threats to ensure that Dr Khoza was protected.
Thankfully, this protection is not too late, as it has been for many other office-bearers who have not been afforded the same level of protection because they are not part of the ANC elite.
Of particular concern is the continued provision of VIP protection to Jacob Zuma’s preferred successor, Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma.
