Mkhwebane joins EFF, wants to emancipate SA
Updated | By Cliff Shiko
Former Public Protector (PP) Busisiwe Mkhwebane has joined EFF, ending speculation about her political future.
She officially joined an EFF branch in Kgwaggafontein, Mpumalanga on Monday.
Mkhwebane was removed from office last month by President Ramaphosa after a parliamentary inquiry found her guilty of misconduct and incompetence.
However, she has vowed to take the parliamentary report on review, arguing that her removal was politically motivated.
Briefing the media, Mkhwebane said her participation in the EFF is to emancipate South Africa.
"I voluntarily join the EFF without any motive of personal gain or material benefit. I understand that I am not entitled to any positions or deployments; I will participate in the life of the EFF to strive for the total emancipation of South Africa,"
"I declared to defend the proud and militant legacy of the fallen heroines and heroes to work towards a South Africa that belongs to all who live in it, defend the African revolutionary tradition against all forms of tendencies that promote hatred, division, under development, corruption and social discourse.”
"I vow to defend and selflessly pursue the realisation of the seven non-negotiable cardinal pillars as a primary political programme of the EFF contained in the founding manifesto," she added.
