DA’S REACTIONARY BLEATING ABOUT APPOINTMENT OF RICHARD CALLAND IS DISGRACEFUL
17 September 2022
We welcome the appointment of the Sec 89 Independent Panel announced by the Speaker yesterday to consider the motion to remove the President, including the appointment of Professor Richard Calland, whom we nominated.
We however condemn the Democratic Alliance’s disgraceful assault on Prof Calland’s integrity.
Calland is a legal professional, an academic and a social commentator of repute. He has contributed significantly to the strengthening of South Africa’s democratic institution.
According to the DA, Calland has written favourably about the President. If the DA did its homework it would also discover articles he’s penned that are critical of the President.
