Gigaba must go after Constitutional Court refuses to hear appeal to overturn damming findings against him
The Constitutional Court has refused to hear the appeal, brought by Home Affairs Minister, Malusi Gigaba, to set aside a judgment by a full bench of the High Court in Pretoria which found that he “…deliberately told untruths under oath” and that “…the Minister has committed a breach of the Constitution so serious that [Judge Tuchten] could characterise it as a violation”.
This means that the damning findings of Judge Tuchen and a full bench of the High Court stand.
It is little wonder that Minister Gigaba did a runner from Parliament on Wednesday on the very same day the judgement came out. Clearly, Minister Gigaba cannot face the music.
The fact is that he is deeply compromised and cannot be trusted to carry out his constitutional mandate to serve the people of South Africa.
He is not above lying under oath nor laying the groundwork for the Gupta’s to capture key public institutions for their own selfish gain.
