HT: Thuli Madonsela 12 December 2014




Hardtalk show

Summary: Hardtalk speaks to Thuli Madonsela, South Africa’s Public Protector. As the country’s anti-corruption watchdog, Mrs. Madonsela claims President Zuma ‘benefitted unduly’ from a 25 million dollar facelift for his private home and wants him to return some of the taxpayers’ money. The ruling ANC says she’s mistaken, and the Parliament dominated by the party has voted to throw out her findings. Mrs. Madonsela is sticking to her guns and has been under attack at home whilst being celebrated abroad. So who’s right and who’s wrong?
