Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>This is the very committee to which former Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane reported to for almost seven years – until she faced impeachment. Former Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane has formally been assigned her new parliamentary duties by her political party, the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been announced in the daily parliamentary notices that Mkhwebane will, as was highly anticipated, be deployed to the justice and constitutional development portfolio committee.<\/p>\n

This is the very committee to which Mkhwebane reported to for almost seven years – until she faced impeachment.<\/p>\n

Mkhwebane was sworn in as an EFF MP 11 days ago and will replace Yoliswa Yako as the EFF\u2019s sole MP on the justice committee.<\/p>\n

In this position, she will be working side-by-side with MPs from other parties who once grilled her about the performance of the Public Protector\u2019s office.<\/p>\n

This includes Democratic Alliance (DA) MP Glynnis Breytenbach, against whom Mkhwebane still has a pending defamation case.<\/p>\n

In an ironic twist of fate, Mkhwebane will also be serving on the justice committee with several members of the Section 194 inquiry that led to her impeachment last month.<\/p>\n

This includes the inquiry\u2019s chairperson Richard Dyantyi, the African National Congress (ANC)\u2019s Xola Nqola, African Christian Democratic Party (ACDP) MP, Steve Swart, and Al Jama-ah’s Ganief Hendricks.<\/p>\n

As the EFF’s representative on the justice committee, Mkhwebane will exercise oversight over her former workplace, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) and the Special Investigating Unit (SIU).<\/p>\n
